    So??  

     

    Pat Surtain gets beat for touchdowns, ss does Sauce Gardner.  Jalen Ramsay gave up plenty of touchdowns in his career.  

     

    That stuff will happen from time to time.  He got an interception and played pretty well overall.  Even in getting beaten for a td, he has shown more promise and hope in a few games than pretty much every other corner on the team, maybe even Benford included. 

     

    I'm guessing he didn't watch the Broncos playoff game last year where Samuel smoked Surtain for like a 65 yard TD?

    Thank heavens for practice squad call-ups

    Um - Diggs and Hollins used to be our WR's, we ran one out of town, and cheaped out on the other guy.

     

    Palmer is better than Hollins and it's not close if you look at their careers.

    The title says it all.  We’re stale.  We shorten games on our own, despite the fact that our D is decimated by injury.  But we also can’t play fast, because our WRs are trash.  It’s no fun right now, and nothing is easy.   It’s the first time I’ve seriously thought we might need a HC change since McD arrived.  The fire and the joy just aren’t there. 

     

    Are the Patriot WR's appreciably better than ours? I would say no. McDaniel does a hell of a lot better job scheming them open and getting them open deep than we do tho, that is for sure.

  4. I view this as another 2023 type season. Odd year = 11 wins, should have already known this from the start. Will be back to 13 next year in the even year.

  5. This team has gotten away with just showing up in these games and winning for too long that it's hard to break the habit that now they actually have to prepare properly and play well this year.

     

    They aren't good enough right now to get away with that.

     

    Too lackadaisical. Too cocky. Too arrogant.

    I understand that but look at their whole body of work. They do a great job year in and year out.

     

    They have a similar WR complement as the Bills do...no big name guys, just a bunch of guys who all have different roles.

     

    Agree they do .much better than the Bills do at getting their guys open, especially down field.

    I’m also think we should look at Green Bay’s offensive side of the ball because they always scheme players open and no one has picked off of Matt LaFleur’s tree

     

    We are also talking about a team that struggled offensively in losses to Cleveland and Carolina.

    Hell, all we need is someone who can at least threaten downfield…that currently does not exist on our roster.

     

    It does actually. Palmer played that role with the Chargers regularly and was wide open on many of those.

     

    Moore and Samuel can both get deep and have the speed to do it and Davis is one of the best deep ball WR in the NFL when healthy.

    just a wild narrative that Brady won’t allow it 

     

    He doesn't utilize WR in a way that allows for it really. Diggs fell off a cliff when he took over from Dorsey while being near the top of the NFL before that.

     

    I'm supposed to believe Diggs suddenly stopped being able to do what he did the 8 week prior?
