Told you Matt Pryor wasn’t going to work at T

Did anyone on here think Matt Pryor was the solution at Tackle?? I'm like to see any posts to verify that.. isn't he a guard???

Imagine if we’d kept Wentz instead of turning it over to Hurts…like you preferred

Why are you talking about keeping Wentz NOW? He has literally played for the Colts, Redskins, Chiefs, and now Vikings since he Played for the Eagles. Did he play for the Rams too? That shipped sailed a LONG time ago.

Will we want to bring Bennett back as a camp body even?

Idk... zero for zero is an attempt to improve the roster.... at a position of need. Sometimes it works.. you can find a Patrick Peterson. Very rare but worth a shot for a guy who was going to get cut.

Moving forward…we still need a CB

Thank you. Ham does love his Ancient History.

That was my take. Pryor was Steen’s presumptive competition at Guard with the loser being the first backup. Lamm had the inside track on being the OT backup if healthy, which it turned out he wasn’t.

I didn't realize that we have beaten the Rams 9 out of the last 10 meetings ( other than disaster injury filled 2020) ..

Siri is 4-0 vs their great coach....a slippery field from beating KC the last 4 times in a row. Didn't realize Siri has owned all these supposed great coaches so badly!

My take was they would have preferred Fred Johnson the whole time but they let him pursue other opportunities. Pryor I always thought a possible backup at G. Not even a guarantee to make the roster. Certainly not a OT.... but Ham told us so...lol.

Say players name and then PFF grade

Don’t subscribe to PFF. Only get highest level numbers … grade, snap count, pressures. Not the level he provided.

I buy that, and when he hadn’t achieved a starting slot with the Jags, Howie got him back for a bag of peanuts.

Ok. Hope he learns how to catch the dang ball in practice then. Yes I’m being a smarta.., but making a valid point.

Some film analysis on kickoffs

Booker wasn’t getting cut…you’re referring to Bennett I assume

Yes, Pryor is primarily a G. I was dumbfounded when they inserted Pryor ahead of Johnson. The whole time the Eagles kept falling behind due to the stagnant O, lack of blocking, pressure on Hurts, I kept wondering when are they going to put Johnson in.

Jets, Phins, Texans and Titans are the four 0-3 teams. What’s the trade we can make with them to get it done this season?

This was exactly the approach I spoke about when we discussed the new KOs. We’re going to see some guys come up with some interesting kicks I think.

Very easy for a return guy to get smashed on kicks like those knuckle balls. Almost like smear the queer.

This was the plan all along. I agree with you…Pryor is a G. Fred isn’t going to be a good option for any length of time. Any quality rushers prepared at all for him will light him up.

I always thought Johnson filled in admirably.

Much better return than the inept and seemingly disinterested Bennett

So you expect a guy to change teams, walk in and be all pro game 1? Being a CB is a little different than being a lineman. Give Bennett a little time to learn how Fangio wants things. In 2 more games if he is still the same I will join you on the "he needs to be benched" train. We all gave Hurts 2 years to get better, so stop with the instant gratification crap. If Fangio thinks Howie needs to make another move, I'm sure he will let Howie know, but there aren't many other options out there unless you know something Howie doesn't

Didn't he hold his own for a few good ones last year? Like the guy in Cleveland?

He has…I’m not trying to take away from what he’s done for us…but not looking for too much ahead from him either.

So did the rest of the world. . KC would have loved to have had him last year.... but then it would have costed Josh Sweat millions on his new contract if they actually had a decent option.

"We gotta get out of this playing not to lose” Jalen Hurts…but you’ve all heard it here for a long time already

Tell Hurts to stop the ball hogging. Guys lose interest if they are not USED. Noone is going to bust arse so Hurts can run the ball and stat grab. A leader makes his players better by getting them to PLAY, not run routes for 45 minutes with no targets. The WR's and TE need to get involved by the guy that throws the ball. We can't count on blocked scoop and score punts. Send Hurts my message. If Patullo is "stuck in neutral" Hurts needs to audible. He's a big boy now and he is paid like one. That OR him getting married really DOES wear him out. Your boy needs to throw for more than 8 yards per pass. No secondary feels even REMOTELY scared of Hurts deep ball because he doesn't throw any. Hurts said the 2nd 1/2 was what he wants to do, so let's stop the BS and GET TO IT!!!! Sorry but there is ZERO excuse for 6-7 tush pushes per game. That is PATHETIC. If we can't make 10 yards in 3 plays that is on Hurts. If Patullo is stuck in neutral,as I said Hurts needs to audible, then they can argue about it later. I don't hate Hurts,but we can't keep doing what we are doing. So far we have been lucky and the D has made some plays. The O is STALE and vanilla and Hurts needs to step up and lead this team. so far the Hurts offense is handing the ball off and the tush push. get these guys some stats,or they will quit on you.
