    Please bump threads where you were pining for Dak Prescott pre draft. I'll wait.

  • We need to hope that Erving can be a serviceable OT now. Does it completely suck that yet another first round pick isn't working out? Yes, yes it does. But a team always needs OL depth, so maybe he can provide that. *sigh*

    Pasztor has been a top-10 tackle and the #1 RT in the NFL after week 4 this year. We don't need Erving for anything other than depth.

    And the point of cutting him is that you don't keep a 1st round pick on your roster unless he's starting.

    Draft status should have precisely shit all to do with whether you stay on the roster. It's not like he's a first round QB that the fans are going to scream for after every incompletion. If he's better than the next guy, he stays. If not, he guys. The round he was drafted in two years ago has no bearing on his ability today.

    Agreed.. I don't think he beats out Coleman or Drango or Reiter for the backup OL spots, because I think we can take as a given that Thomas/Paz/Bito/Greco have their spots. Paz needs to be resigned, but that won't be hard.

    We've already tried the Turnstile @ guard, and he's sucked there too. Pretty hard to bust on a center in the first round,but Erving is about the worst I've ever seen.

    I know, man...I know. I'm just trying to find SOMETHING positive here, and the guy DOES have the correct frame for tackle. I set the bar pretty low when I said he could be a backup tackle...hopefully it works out. You hate to have ANOTHER first rounder that delivers absolutely nothing. It's basically unheard of. That being said, Shelton has shown signs of life this year, and maybe he can build on that. At least BOTH aren't looking like complete busts....

    Past is past. I haven't seen any tape of Coleman, but I have to believe he's still recovering from the torn MCL he suffered in a game one year ago today. [and they thought it was just a sprain, so he played more with it, exacerbating it and extending the recovery timeline..]

    I'll keep Coleman as T backup, Drango as G backup, and Reiter as C/G backup all over Turnstile.

  • Slide protect? Slide to the unoccupied gap so the dl has a clr unimpeded path to the qb? Lol. Maybe im not seeing everything in this picture but dont u usually slide somewhere if the defense is loading up one side with more guys than u have blockers? Im only seeing a 4 man rush with everyone else miles downfield. I mean thetes no one even close. And drango just doesnt look like he's interested in following the guy that beat him. Maybe he thought an inside screen was called and he was supposedto release his man upfield?

    Coleman got some time a couple games ago. I saw one blown assignment... AKA a great series for Cam...

    There was an added LB and DB on the right pre-snap. The LB bailed at the snap the DB threatened the right side actually taking a step towards the line before sprinting to the right flat. As I wrote elsewhere at least Cam did not chase him...

    Even my last, untested darkhorse appeared this week... and didn't shit the bed.

    Now if Goff would just come through... not that I mind nailing darkhorses, but it's be nice to notch a first rounder, let alone a #1 overall...

    Yes & It's Steeler Week.so If they think Gilbert gave them depth for a 2018 pick. Big Erv's turnstile ride should get us a 2019 pick..Shit$burgs GM is as blind as a Farmer we use to know

    Goff to start this weekend. You were far from the only guy in that camp, so you won't be alone watching how he does.

  • It's very interesting to see how the Rams have brought Goff along this season, especially him being drafted #1. The Rams are a PERFECT example of what a team can accomplish with a decent defense and an experienced head coach (I didn't say "great coach", but Fisher is definitely experienced). Rams have scored 20 or more points only TWICE this season, yet they are 4-5 I think. Four wins so far while only scoring 20 or more TWICE? Do you realize how crazy that is? Think about our defense and how bad they are. How many wins do WE have if our defense is merely MID-PACK? Hell, we give up over 30 every week, or close to it, right? How the hell are we supposed to evaluate a young QB who is down significant points almost EVERY week? Again, that's what made Cody's benching against the Ravens so completely mind-boggling. We've been wanting (at least I have) to see Cody in a close game, and see how he reacts when the game is on the line. He got ONE drive in the second half, and Hue Jackson benched him with the score 7-6! (Hue made the move when the Ravens had the ball and didn't score yet).

    For the first time, I read and heard on the radio that Browns players were "visibly upset" about Cody's lack of deep throwing. I didn't see it personally, but apparently there were a few times when deep plays could've been made, and for whatever reason, he didn't cut the ball loose. Again, I didn't see these plays, but Hue Jackson made mention of it, and said "We don't want to be that kind of team." (speaking in terms of players getting visibly angry on the sideline). I haven't had the chance to go back and look for these plays, but apparently they were there. I know I saw several times in which we WANTED to go down the field, but Cody didn't have time. However, I don't have any plays that stick out in my mind where Cody "should've thrown it down the field". Do you guys remember any specific plays?

  • So go after Tony Romo? Now an unemployed (as a starter) and far better than our current glassmen.

    Romo may be better but he's just as much of a glass man.

    2 or 3 years ago I would've jumped at the chance. He's still better than anything we currently have, I just don't see him coming here since we are in a rebuilding stage.

    I'd see him going to Denver, Houston or Chicago in the offseason and making each of those teams instantly better.

    Absolutely. I should have put it in pink. 😁
