Coach Tuesday

This. They are not winning enough of their individual matchups up front on defense to truly make a difference against the teams they’ll face in the playoffs. And who is the emotional leader of this defense? Who is setting the tone?

No. Is this your “we quietly got better” thread redux?

Yes! What the heck was that? How was Miami’s right guard able to start every play early yesterday? Was driving me nuts. They are going to need to beat one or both of the Ravens or Chiefs to get to the Super Bowl this year and both of those teams are running teams who can also kill you with the passing game. Not too different from Miami. They’d better fix whatever the issue is.

Maybe time to start fattening up Epanesa again!

You forgetting Elam?

Taron Bass Hollins Thats if for me. I thought Allen was off today.

Slayton

Slayton would’ve the guy.

The Lions’ safety Branch just got ejected by Park Avenue for nearly the same hit. Some consistency would be nice.

The problem is Amon-Ra St. Brown’s insane contract given to him by the Lions (dumb organizations to dumb things): 4 years, $120,010,000 with a whopping $77,000,000 guaranteed, average annual salary of $30,002,500.

This thread is still a thing?

To be fair Joe B. also does keep insinuating that Damar is reluctant to get dirty. Today’s article said it this way: ”Hamlin remains the most significant question mark, as his play-it-safe style, along with hesitance to dip down into the play has cost the team a lot of yardage over the season.” That’s far from the first time this season that Joe B. has tiptoed around the radioactive assertion that Damar is afraid of initiating contact. I’m not saying it’s accurate or not but it’s been raised.

He bet on himself - he wanted to enter the offseason as a FA to get one more big payday. That’s what this was all about. Tough luck for him.

And they know him well from having played against him many times in the division.

Thanks Buckets.

Any news on the Diggs injury?

This season is more enjoyable than last season, if we’re being honest.

Throwing a cat out of a house isn’t easy, Rich.

For the season he’s given up 6 catches for 29 yards on 15 targets 😱😱

He will want Amon-Ra numbers (thanks, Lions!) but I think he’s a tick below that level of talent. But if he keeps producing like this, he will get it somewhere.

Uche was available this offseason for anyone to sign. He'll be available again this coming offseason - he's on a one-year deal.

I'd consider him if he wasn't on a rotation. Benford never comes off the field. Taron needs to be in the conversation as well. He's basically a CB/linebacker hybrid and probably the best tackler on the team. He is playing at a really high level despite the drop-off in help behind him.

Wait are you going Benford or Bernard? I went CB the CB not TB the LB but could make the case for either of them.

I voted Benford. He is basically just locking down his side on every play and seems to rarely even get tested anymore.

Crayonz??
