  1. Offenses arent by any means that simple. A wr runs the wrong route on a timing pass and the qb throws a pick 6. Breaks the wrong way, runs the route too deep or not deep enough etc. Offensive plays are designed to create openings, and set up other variations of the same play. You dont just have one wr run deep every play, a side from the fact they'd burn out in no time flat. Have you seen the size of a modern football play book on offense?
  2. It is beyond un real if gurley steps in on this level of notice and does any thing. It says a TON about him that they would stick him right into the line up.
  3. Look at the systems milt played in. Look at the number of OCs dressler has ran through too. Elite wrs step up and dressler has done it time and again. Including this year in what is still a poorly run offense. Denmark has been a flash and vanish guy.
  4. every wr drops passes. We list our starters as 2 backs 4 wr. That with 1 ni fb, which is a set we use sparingly. JFG is on the field a ton, not to mention we dont carry much depth at wr and have been to the point where we have no back up twice this year. Hes played 8 games this year with no catch. Neither of these guys are lighting the world on fire, but kohlert is proven and consistent.
  5. The rep difference hasnt been limited by any stretch of the imagination. Hes played and been invisible for many long periods of time. For what ever reason nichols and willy didnt seem to find them well in this system. Kohlert has been a steady productive canadian wr for a long time.
  6. Im leery of media reports like this mos keeps his cards close to his chest thats all. I also really hope we actually make use of the backs and dont just bloat a position to have 5 touches in the first half.
  7. been a long time since weve had a guy who has such an amazing ability to come down with tough catches in tight coverage. Cant wait to see him in blue and gold.

    Yeah its awful sad. Ive never watched tuf but a young bright guy passing and succombing to his demons is a damn shame. ufc manilla allegedly cancelled after bj penns pull out.
  9. i soo hope its true.
  10. Isnt that 1 too many DI for 7 ni starters? Iirc dont we get the 4th if we start an 8th ni? Other wise id say thats pretty much it. Knox imop would be the extra DI to come off. Of course gurley would go in for mayo, and smith for mcduffie. Assuming mcduffie is still hurt. If he or adams gets healthy Id put smith on the 2man or ir and give the other two a chance and shake up smith a bit.
  11. fogg cant return full time, and heath is a none factor. Mcduffie should and almost certainly will be on the roster as a DI to rotate/provide depth at wr and return. injury history and salary dont change talent level. Dressler is far better and far more consistent. Dressler in a down year is a career best year for denmark. Denmark stays healthy, but has huge gaps of several games where he flat out disappears. Dressler has been really good, even when our OL offense and willy were struggling some thing awful.
  12. weve made some confounding roster decisions, by play and production it should handily be smith on the outs. Yeah. Mayo has shown some real nice flashes. Weve run packages for smith and he still hasnt found an niche here.
  13. a great, great pick up. Cant wait to see what he does in blue! I wonder how our WR core will stack up at 100% healthy with considerations for the ratio though. kohlert, dressler, denmark, gurley, and smith for now. Smith really hasnt lived up to the contract or his previous level of play. Im sure we will bring back mcduffie to split return duty with fogg. Either way Id say this is our best WR core since atleast bruce +stegall.
  14. yeah exactly. weve also been spoiled with some amazing sportscasters too.
  15. not a fan of buck or tabby at all. That said i hate watching my teams play when announced by none home broadcasters.
  16. Broken player on a broken team its a bad combo. With that Ol, lack of run game, and now lack of proven wrs its not gonna be pretty for willy.
  17. spent a lot of time there too, never heard of it either. At this rate the rest of the league should kick in and form a fund to pay pederson to never ever publish any thing ever again. D has been consistent, it just hasnt been very good. How many picks called back by penalties and how many db drops in that time? Nichols if any thing is consistent. Low production first half, good 2nd half, at his best late in the game. Gets breaks, but makes the most of his breaks. Our team has averaged 35.3 points, not our offense. 50+ yard fgs, and drives starting in side fg range ending in fgs is not our offense scoring. Its special teams/turn overs.

    and broken J penn has pulled out due to injury. Ufc looking for a replacemat.
  19. those bleep bleep bleeeeeeeeeeeeps thought they would pull some garbage in the last game and series and not have to see us again. Oh how the tables have turned. I seriously hope the umps are smart and keep the games under control.
  20. Pretty much. Virtually no chance they play this week any way. With the waiver wire gone these guys probably have a decent amount of offers right now. Chance to star on some teams, and contribute on contenders. Maybe they want to play out the year and try the nfl, maybe get a big deal for the remainder of the year plus next year etc.
  21. We dont, but thats a symptom of the greater offensive problem. Awful calls and design. +1 pound the ball. run 25-30 times a game minimum with both backs and watch our TOP soar.
  22. coombs has been a WR in TO. Hed come in imop for lochard as a wr and back up harris at RB.
  23. Never gonna consistently put up 6-10 runs in modern baseball. Pitchers are too strong and the low strike is called too much. Plus tulo, saunders, travis, martin and bautista missed a TON of time this year. 175 games combined. In the last 10 games in September the jays offense averaged 4.2 runs a game while they gave up an average of 2.7. But They only won half of those games. The bullpen was awful. Major swings is what you get with big fly offenses.
  24. No kidding. That following a hand full of trades including the willy trade which is border line block buster with how much TO gave up. Oh man thatd be soo sweet.
  25. This is hands down the craziest late season transaction period ive ever seen. No idea what toronto is thinking. Id take any of these guys.
