we gotta draft OJ Howard (Bama TE) by any means. Trade up, do whatever you need to do, but we need a dynamic TE since Brock only wants to throw to the TE
that would be nice
Had to pretty much weather the storm. We basically beat the teams we were supposed to beat, and were assaulted by teams that are 3 of the top 5 teams in the league. The Pats are clearly the class of the AFC, and the Vikes/Broncos have the top two defenses. Would have been nice to have been competitive in more than just two quarters of the Denver game, but I can take 5-3 heading into the bye. Would have also liked to see more passing yards from Brock, but the right passes were being made mostly and catches were being made when they're supposed to. The game could have probably been over sooner had Hopkins/Brock not had miscommunication, which led to that pick. The defense had another bend but don't break outing again. Had some unfortunate penalties, but they held on, so it's all good. I also liked that they pretty much held a good quarterback in check, leading to their WRs not getting a whole bunch of looks. Now, just need to have guys get healthy, then try to make a more convincing run in the second half of the season.
with Bouye. Even Gruden mentioned how it seemed like they targeted Bouye, then immediately went to Kareem once that wasn't working Hell, I kind of want to get off the defense's back completely because of that. If we were even getting #16 ranked QB play, we'd look much more respectable. We'd probably have the same record, but simply look better, especially vs the broncos, Vikes, and Pats.
The Broncos game is definitely where I was like
But I was very surprised hearing that we're 3rd in our own division of point differential, and we're only better than about 6 teams overall in that same category. We are very lucky not to be 0-8 because of atrocious offensive play
meh
You just perfectly described Charles James too
You just perfectly described Charles James too
I can recall three plays off the top of my head where James has been in perfect coverage, but it just too small to makes plays.
and it will be KJ's fate too unless we keep him mostly in the slot/guarding intermediate routes. This is why I was so pressed on drafting Marcus Peters (before he was a rookie Pro bowler) simply because we never obtain the correct mold of DB. It seems super obvious, just look at how most of the dominant defenses over the past few years are built
the injury just made it worse. That TD to Demaryius Thomas was so obvious
|) didn't practice either. Only Wilfork did some light work.
been rough planning this party
