    If only we would've kept Gilmore! This team has a chance ESPECIALLY if we can get JT back. The upgrade at hc and qb play has already made this team better. Should be 2-0 already but I like what I see so far. Gus needs to be more flexible with his defensive game plans depending on opponent. 

    if we had gilmore and rodgers didnt gamble the defense would be great . front 7 is amazing this year

    I don’t have disdain for JT. But I’ve said multiple times I’m against paying elite RBs above market value or even just top market value.
     

    I’m especially against paying top dollar for players at a position that notoriously gets substantially more injury prone after their rookie contract. 
     

    Do we currently have a need at RB? Possibly. Likely, even. Does that mean you throw $13m year after a position where elite players haven’t won super bowls in two decades on top of them being injury prone? How about no…

    deon jackson averaged 1 .1 yards a run ......  if we had taylor teams would be loading boxes and make richardsons life so much easier .    if taylor played that game and gets 100 plus yards rushing we win that game .    starting a rookie QB  with a horrible run game is a bad idea .  we have tons of cap space next year and richardson on a rookie deal , i see nothing wrong with giving taylor a 3 year 12 million a year deal .

    we need Taylor, or a quality RB. That was one of the more obvious takeaways from this game. 

     

    Pierce - non existent 

    Pittman - should get more snaps running, or on gadjet plays, he is not seperating

    Downs - rookie, probably still our best route runner 

     

    Baker is not good - if we are going to watch someone struggle, i'd rather it be one of our rookie CBs. 

     

    our linebackers are good to very good. 

    our line is still good without Yannick, but depth might be questionable 

    Outside run blocking has been decent, inside blocking is either not doing that good, or the backs are just missing the holes. looked like both interiorly. 

     

    Safety is average. 

    talent is lacking on the offense  and at corner really bad .   it  feels kind of like the same problems nonstop with ballard build teams .   last year the line was bad wrs couldnt separate much and ballard said lets try again .      the main problem is guys who ballard paid are playing below their contract value .    moore nelson, kelly smith   leonard under play their contracts .   buckner , grover earn every penny .  then mix in all the capital spend at corner and edge rush that havent turned into above average players its a bad mix .  

  4. i honestly think the best thing for the team long term is to just focus on getting richardson better and not worry about winning .   we can go get marvin harrison jr  in the draft and rebuild the offensive line because smith is getting worse every game .  the line cant run block at all nelson fell apart too .

    If the defense plays like today I like our chances against Texans. Rookie QB against rookie QB.

    our wr core stinks i feel bad for AR .   we are throwing a raw rookie into a game with a bad line no run game and average wrs .   pittman is solid but every route he cant separate .

    It’s a rookie HC and QB, Wth do people expect. You all would have quit on Peyton Manning day one . Geez

    who is mad at shane or AR   ?      i am mad at ballard for having 7 years to build a roster and the wrs and line are not good .   a rookie QB needs help cant let him get hit so much and have wrs that cannot separate  its a lose lose for AR
