Coach Tuesday

Beane has had two awful offseasons right after paying Allen and compressing the cap. Just facts.

It may actually be worse than that - they are so year to year dependent financially in this market that they cannot afford to mortgage any real future assets.

Ted Thompson 2.0 this 1000%. The greatest trick the Beanester ever pulled was convincing the world his nickname is “Big Baller.”

They are a supremely stubborn group.

They're finally gonna hit that end-around play they've been effing up all season.

One more matchup advantage (to acquire or to emerge) on offense would get it done though. As horrible as it is to even utter, I realized the other day that even Steph Diggs right now would probably put this offense over the top.

Well fine. But he would’ve been a great replacement for Hoecht.

Ravens just got the guy I wanted to replace Hoecht. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/ravens-trade-with-titans-for-edge-rusher-dremont-jones

Welp - Ravens just got him for a 5th. Would’ve been perfect.

I would’ve agreed with you but for Bishop’s play last night - he was in the exact right spot every single time last night which tells me he was perfectly prepared. Most of that is on him but some of it is definitely on Babich.

Dre’mont Jones on the Titans, he was a monster for them today playing in a very similar role. On a one year $10M deal, not sure how they’d be able to structure it. But he would be a viable replacement.

I think you have to look at the strength and training program at some point. It’s too many.

We have Joshua Patrick Allen. God I hate the “why can’t we have nice things?” take.

Only silver lining is that Epanesa is playing his best football.

Correct and that's why I think he's out today by "mutual agreement" - he was told to start trading away his own key acquisitions and he said, if you're doing that, we might as well part ways now.
