I’m curious as to why  Wilkins in inactive and Williams is active. I didn’t think Wilkins had been to bad with the touches he has received.

Ankle injury

Moving the ball, but JB still can't throw a wr open.... They all have to stop and wait to get the ball....

It's called sitting in the open spot of a zone.  All receivers do that.  That's how you get open.  Run through a seam in the zone or sit and wait in an open area.

So... I usually like to point out that NFL football is not Madden.... But, then that run by 25 just happened....holy %

 

I did just think that was a total Madden nonsense run

He's done a good job. Injuries are killing them right now. The starting QB quit at a time they had little time to adjust.  But he has made some mistakes too, like sitting on all that cap money and not spending it on O and D depth. Firing the Oline coach after a highly successful season.  Too many people have overrated this roster.  This is a middle of the road team. 

Correct. Like sitting on that cap money. Ballard doesn’t really deserve praise, he hasn’t proven anything. I’ll give him time, but her certainly doesn’t deserve accolades yet. Reich as well. They had a nice season last year with an all world QB. Jacoby isn’t all world. I’ve watched this team for decades (just remembered my login lol) They are very far away. Remember when they were really good it was still hard and got only 1 chip. 
 

They are an average team so be it.

He looked unstoppable for a year, and rightfully so.... He def. Lived up to the early hype.... Long term? We'll see.... Pretty sure the rest of the league liked what Ballard did early too, not just fans who grew weary of grigs dumb %

Grigs just became so arrogant after the successful season and killed any hope of regaining respect of the team and then lazy and complacent with that really nice (at first) first draft. The rest of his time was awful and the success of the team got worse only to be capable because of Luck. Grigs definitely deserved to go and probably 2-3 too late. Some of Reichs choices and some of the picks of CB is starting to look questionable at this point. Time will tell.

    • I agree Bradley needs to go and take Ballard with him. Defense plays soft on passing downs on opponents side.  On 2nd and 10 and you play soft, and first down made from the other team, no aggressive approach from the defense and no blitzes, this is frustrating.
    • I say we give Mallory the keys and dont look back…. Good or bad 
    • I’m not saying anyone is infallible.  Far from it.   But as I shared with another poster tonight, I never think I’m smarter than a GM, or HC or coordinator or even a position coach.  Even ones I don’t like.      If you want to believe the word of someone on a podcast, go right ahead.   I think it’s a bad, bad look.   But hey, you’re certainly not the only one here who does that.    But certainly not me.    Good luck with that.  
    • That was great throw. It came in clean and Mitchell had both hands on it before the db knocked it out. This is the nfl, you have to SECURE, CATCH, and HOLD ONTO THAT BALL. You have to fight for every ball in the nfl(unless you are playing the Colts and you get to waltz through the secondary in front of lb's and db's for uncontested 15 yard gains). The one game Pittman missed Mitchell had 7 catches so he just needs to be more consistent. I still think he is a rare talent. But, remember also, we need Richardson to improve also and get our offensive line intact. 6-7 is pretty good, all things considered(including Bradley being the dc).
    • Because I have eyes and I can see what our defense is doing, I can see what instructions he's giving, where they are lined up, how many are rushing, how many are deep, etc. and I can make an informed deduction about what's happening. And in this case Tice is absolutely correct and what he saw was what I saw too and it looked exactly like what he describes - Gus Bradley had no idea they were trying to get into long FG range. He was only thinking about the Hail Mary.    I have no idea why you always give the benefit of the doubt to everybody in this organization despite what you can actually see with your own two eyes.   Of course Steichen won't say anything mid-season about his DC. Hell, even if he fires him after the season he still won't say anything overly negative, because this is the business and it's bad for business to burn bridges and flame people with reputation and long time careers in the league.   You can still watch what happens and make a conclusion for yourself. I promise you, the world won't end if you don't take the word of the GM, HC or the DC as gospel. As amazing as you think they are, they are not the chosen, infallible ones.
