The other question I have concerns Q. Hamstring injury….really struggling to think there is low enough grade of hamstring injury that he couldn’t return in the game for where he should suit up for this matchup.

Now as far as intel you are trying to give the Vikes to prepare for Addore and Ringo? We need to lay the BS on thick……any less time they straight prepare to slaughter that duo the better.

While we are at it Dickerson as well. The less prep they have for Toth…well you know….though Dickerson they might consider rushing back here.

I wouldn’t consider Dickerson or Q until after the bye.

We have Vikes then Gmen..bye week

My concern is Siri leans mostly one game at a time approach. Just stepping away from making that 100 percent priority…those two we need right and as healthy as we can get. For whatever run we ..at least try to make…hopefully accomplish.

I wouldn’t go All In this season personally. To volunteer my answer. I’m looking at this as a growth season. Very young potentially strong core unit together on D. ST…returner situation no good. DeJean is our best PR….but think I’m reversing my opinion on utilizing him with them…for this season that is. On O we are stuck in the bed that winning the SB laid out. Siri finally got his say about running the O while empowering Patullo as his trusted number two removing any potential Siri’s roadblocks. Tricked Moore into actually creating a scheme..at least more of a playbook…along with actual player development through coaching. So everything riding on been years now developing Siri becoming that O mind he believes he is. Brought in and had everything possible to do all this for him the whole time thanks to Lurie and Rosie.

So regardless of whether this years squad can chase a championship….Fangio will get this D really rounding into shape this season. What happens happens….should play out to prove what clear pieces work/don’t and what’s needed.

This is the additional season Siri has been miraculously blessed with to prove himself the O coach or not. The track record is already so very extensive. Not in any positive ways on that front really. But….hired him as a young first time HC …that really never run an O before. So optimistically the thinking would be after years of development survival and several resources been provided to lift him up…that now he is equipped to keep growing more on his own.

Or Siri proves beyond a shadow of a doubt he isn’t capable of running an NFL O. Not suggesting he’d be fired after this season. Think it just makes it undeniable he isn’t the O mind he believes he is. Enough so that Rosie and Siri himself have a long talk about how he has to relinquish that.

Pretty much what I believed was already agreed upon and determined after The Collapse. Personally for me well before that even…but…

Vic straight confirmed Jihad has been getting Edge snaps and that Dean is an option for that move to take place.

Gotta admit seems like a good idea here. Get Jihad some tape and experience more at Edge. It’s a clear team weakness. At least until we get Nolan back.

"It's possible,” Fangio allowed. "He's been getting edge snaps in certain ways we align.”

While most of Campbell’s snaps have come as an off-ball linebacker, he has gotten 80 of his 380 snaps on the line of scrimmage,

Proud of Vic shooting down any thoughts relying on BG coming in to play hero about the situation. Question was has there been any talk about bringing BG back? Which just zero chance his name isn’t anywhere on all their minds this season as an option.

But don’t want to put any pressure on BG…not until the move is actually made. I think it’s a short term option band aid fix for our team for sure.

Really thought we could have made the move for CB Greg Newsome from Cleveland. Really didn’t take very much…felt like Browns were moving him out as much as getting an offer they couldnt refuse.

But it’s been leaked that the asking price is high. He’s on his fifth year contract situation…so isn’t real favorable cap wise.

Olave one source reported his trade floor is at least a third round pick.

Really an option to consider here.

Olave you get cheap this season and have that fifth year option worth accepting in most any second season move. Easily see him as a extension or trade candidate.

Even the play-calling has been criticized by Lane Johnson and others for being too "predictable." It's like the defense already knows what's coming.

"If the Eagles are in a pistol or under-center set, they almost always run,” The Athletic’s Brooks Kubena wrote on September 17. "If they’re in the shotgun, they sparingly run. The percentages are glaring when compared to other NFL teams. And opponents are aware.
