This ⬆️And that ⬇️ Have to think if the defense was playing like they are now during that Denver game; totally different outcome.

Interesting.

He’ll have a great chance against 1-6 Carolina (currently) after a good “rest” and will be home.

Considering how many TOs they had and penalty yards (8/71) the defense has played well enough to keep us in the game. Two TOs resulted in 10 pts but you can’t ask for much more from a defense playing for a 2-7 team against a 5-4 team at their home.

Cut or put him on the PS and keep him there at the very least.

I’d think the one pass to Kmet was a short duck but the other two were behind the receiver. Especially the one to Scott.

Yeah he’s starting to look every bit the Rookie UDFA. But…still like his moxie.

Agreed. I thought at least Ngoukue would benefit with the addition of Sweat but I literally forgot he was on the team until they mentioned his name late in the first half. Aside from that…where is he? ??‍♂️

FWIW: Mack’s 2018 deal involved a six year $135 million ($22.5 million / year) contract and a 1st and 6th year pick for 2019 and a 1st and 3rd round pick for 2020. Sweat’s deal was 4 years for $105 million ($26.25 million / year) and a 2024 2nd round pick…and that is all.

I’m officially a Foreman-man. Love his style of running.

Penalties are killing the vibe man.

The ghost of Parkey makes its appearance. Santos with his first miss of the year.

I would agree and think he’s not it either. But would you rather have a guy like Bagent (and Fields) on the team who are already familiar with the system (assuming some form of what they’re doing offensively stays in place) than some unproven rookie (no matter how “evolutionary”) and having to start over?

Taysom Hill is a model for what Fields could be.

I’ll agree with Stinger, they got 2 QBs on this team. ??

Coaching looks solid today…so far. Flus making a good challenge for Bagent’s effort.

Sanborn much more effective as the MLB than off the ball.

Sweet opening drive and an eye-popping catch by Kmet to cap it off! Damn that was a thing of beauty.

Injury report for today. Fields is “doubtful” and Brisker still “out” due to concussion. I fear the team may need to look for a replacement for him. Also see Edmunds is out with a knee. Guessing we’ll see some Sewell although they ran more NB when Edmunds was out last week.

We have one. ??

And if you consider he’s also a 1st round pick that has been productive since then (and on his rookie contract) I don’t think trading a second for him was a waste at all.

Right now he’s showing 4 passes defensed (Stevenson has 5), 2 INTS (he leads the team over players like Sanborn and Edmunds who have one each) and has 15 solo tackles (which is about average for the team but far less than Stevenson who has 37). Add in that he’s started in 6 of the 8 games available. If he wants big money he needs to prove it. He may have been able to use the excuse that the front seven don’t apply enough pressure but I think now with Ngoukue and Sweat in the lineup, he’s going to have an opportunity to shine better and prove his overall worth to the team.

And now signed. Thoughts?

Yeah I’ve never been a huge fan of Johnson’s. He’s a capable corner but not elite by any means. Still think he’s benefited from the opposing corner (and until recently safety coverage) not being so good and VERY inconsistent. But he is an ok enough player that should be considered to keep so as to avoid having to start over. What the price tag on that is? Couldn’t say.
