If everything is 15 yards downfield before anyone cuts, you'd better have a good OL.  Or, you know, a checkdown.  We have neither.

Ah, yes.   A big bugaboo for me.  Why in hell do they not have a checkdown back available when we need one?  It would certainly help Baker out a lot of times.

OL.....this is a topic about Trent Williams...you know, an OT.  What area did you think we were talking about.  Our OL is talent deficient.   We just could not make that deal to upgrade.

Okay.

i thought your prior post was about their additions this offseason on the Oline and then it failing so far this season.  We added Kush and everyone else is back.  

We’ve made  small changes at just about every position group.  We haven’t really overhauled any particular position group.

We did so much last year with all of the “holes” we have.  Hubbard, Robinson, Landry facing #1 corners.  

One big thing has changed we play differently offensively and we aren’t disciplined.

And What area is that WR? 

We have one new offensive lineman.

one new DT.

im confused

What the organization tried to do is to put  an infusion of talent into an area where the talent level is deficient.  (It just didn't happen)  That is what they should be doing among other things.    Dealing with the issues surrounding the HC and QB are wholly separate matter.

The organization has decided to put the blame on the offensive struggles on the Oline and not our rookie coach and 2nd year QB. 

Our QB talked about accountability starts at the HC position and the QB position

I'd REALLY like to see Greg Robinson back in the lineup, but I'm guessing that's never going to happen.  As I said in another post, McCray was beyond terrible.  He played worse Sunday than Greg has EVER played, and let's just say Greg hasn't exactly been known as "amazing".  I realize Greg is frustrating, and I also realize his penalties seem to come at the WORST times, but I don't understand trying a new guy at LT midway through the dang season.  You want to try a new RG?  Sure, put Tellar in there.  Why did Tellar only play 11 snaps last game?  I have no idea, but you don't switch your LT to a guy who has never played that position in the NFL.  That's what they call "dumb".  

This game will be all about stopping the running game, NOT turning it over, and tackling well.  Denver is going to try a million of those short passes because they've got a rookie 6th round QB in there, so you can bet he's going to throw a ton of bubble screens, short RB passes, and whatever else is quick to leave his hand.  We'll have to tackle well and also make plays on the ball when they present themselves.  It's time for OUR team to force some silly turnovers and capitalize off them for a change.

Very glad that we still have our #1 pick.

We're on to Denver with what we've got.

@the-gipper said:

And it is now 4:05 by the clock on my computer, so that trading deadline has passed, no?

Yep. Sign him this Spring give up nothing 

Trent Williams will not be a Cleveland Brown in 2019. 

@bjh2130 said:

Not just ward. Ward and a first rounder

Well, they are fucking idiots.   It is why they border on being the worst run franchise for the last 20 years.  (neck and neck with the Browns for a lot of that)

@dutch-oven said:

I can't remember who said it, but they made a comparison of Ward to ex-Colts safety Bob Sanders. 

Both helluva good players when on the field, but the problem with both is that they aren't on the field enough. 

Exactly you are no good if you can’t suit up.  

Right now when he plays he does well he had a better rookie year and his compensation isn’t killing our cap space. Makes him a valuable commodity to other teams... But do you pay him over some of our other guys who will attract top dollar in the next couple years??? And He’s probably a hold out candidate going into his final year.

@bjh2130 said:

Or They can hold onto him and get a comp pick 3rd round pick in two years.

the idiot running that organization

@sdbacker80 said:

I’m on the fence about Ward long term.  I dont know if we should pay him his next big contract. But that’s crazy- and we can fetch a ton more than 31 year old tackle for a half of a season
