Are you serious? Mosley is at least 4 yards behind the play. If the pass is out at Clay's break, which it should be, there's no way that Mosley makes up that ground.

Ah, finally revenge on Belichick

Does he count as an above fringe player for whom they would send a plane for?

How can Tyrod throw passes if he's in protocol? Was the pass thrown last week?

Think of the fun ride to the Monolian Buffet for the victory dinner.

I hope their on air chemistry improves. Their one series appearance on MNF few weeks ago was really bad.

He's doing all he can to stop the exodus of insurance from the state

Not sure what your point is. I thought your argument is that McBeans are simply throwing out Whaley's gems.

So much for the headlines that he was Lions "starting LT" early in camp. Ford is cheap.

You make it sound as if these players are gone, without any compensation. Here's a better chart to compare & contrast Sammy Watkins - Matthews Mike Gillislee - JW Ron Darby – EJ Gaines Robert Woods - Zay Cyrus Koundjio - ??? Stephon Gilmore - White Chris Hogan - Open Kiko Alonzo - Shady Plus, 2018 1st, 2nd, 3rd. It's not like the cupboard is barren al of a sudden

Can we trade Ragland to them? Figure it took three picks to select him. May as well trade him three times.

Many of the people complaining about the trade were appalled last year at the high pick of a slow, limited use LB.

In that same breath, EJ Gaines had a stellar rookie year and had a good game last week, unlike Darby. Again, other than Sammy, none of the moves are too puzzling and we haven't seen Matthews yet. People are getting up in arms about a high draft pick who could barely hang with the 3s. How do you think the players will respond to a coach who's actually awarding roster spots based on ability and not pedigree?

Like Tim Graham?

The Sammy trade is the only one that is still puzzling, and I'm convinced more clarity will come of the move. But scheme changes aside, I can certainly see why McD jettisoned Cujo, Darby and Reggie. That's not a solid foundation that they dumped.

He's part of the side that's getting fixed. The bar is set higher for the offense because that unit was half way decent. On the radio today Wood made it sound that the new scheme is clicking, but they should be on a short leash.

Your analogy is close, but not exact. It would be better if you said that a new owner buys a company where the manufacturing was good, but the sales team was bad. So he hires a new manager to fix the sales, but at the same time he takes the ax to the manufacturing side. Sales is fixed, but they're selling a crappy product. So a new manager is brought in to fix manufacturing, and he decides to axe the well performing sales team. And I'm not ready to apply that analogy to the players' departure. But I will apply that analogy to McD's coaching choices in keeping Crossman, and adding Castillo & Rico.

Which means they're confident TT will be ready for Game 1. If there was even an inkling that this could be a prolonged situation, they would have brought in a better player.

Accepted wisdom holds that concrete is at a 40% premium in NYC construction.

I was ambivalent about it, with a negative bent. I didn't hate the pick, but disliked the price, which in retrospect was monumental if you believe the stories that they wanted to pick Dak in the 4th. But I was willing to give them the benefit of the doubt. Now, we're looking at a hobbled system misfit who's had trouble hanging with the 3rd unit. I'm not going to trash the staff for getting something out of a very bad trade and pick last year.

Were you this critical of a move that traded away 2 4th rounders to move up 8 spots in the draft?

That's a likely scenario on why no one is in yet. Has to be a trade or Kaep negotiation

There's a difference between being sceptical and immediately trashing it
