  1. They have completely written off our season already. Seriously * those guys.

    If we get pushed around by Tenn, then yeah I'm ready to throw in the towel. Today is the 11th hour. But we have three extremely winnable division games and then the NE juggernaut. If we can be 3-2 and then host NE and at least compete in that game even if we lose, my nerves will calm.

    We drop any one of the next three games and we are done.

  2. How mature. I wasn't attempting to diminish Edge's talent, which was significant, I was pointing out its not needed in today's NFL to invest heavily in the RB position. Get a good offensive line and a lot of running backs can get the job done.

     

     

    a lot of backs dont get a D to stack 7 in the box.  Now they wont do that anymore, how can you not see that this will only improve both sides of our offense?  No one was scared of old man Bradshaw or GD Brown.  Now coordinators have to plan accordingly for both run and pass.

     

    And this really wasnt a heavy investment, I completely disagree with you there.  Both from a financial standpoint and from a draft standpoint.  Second round OL choices will be fine. 

     

    I had a strange feeling we were going to gamble AGAIN with a first round RB pick anyways.  Now we have a semi-proven stud who can only get better instead of languishing with Lombardi and Banner at the Factory of Sadness.

  3. Yuck. I had us at most 10-6 before we lost Ballard/Thomas/Allen. Now we are looking at .500 or worse.

    Miracles can happen, and that is what it will take for us to get double digit wins. After the SF/Denver/Seattle stretch we are all gonna be looking forward to next year.

    Ugly ugly ugly.

  4. You act as though McGlynn were a high draft pick or a free agent making a lot of coin. He is a low rent free agent for a team that needs bodies.

    Not at all, I'm suggesting the coaches have been praising him for a while, why do that? I know they get paid for making those calls and are infinitely more qualified than us, but what do they see that we don't?

  5. You think they'd rather make up an injury than just bench or release him?

    There is something about him they love. Maybe they know they can't start him anymore, but keep him for depth in case of injury.

    And it's not made up, I know I put it quotes, but if he was a pro bowler he would be out there.
