No excuses for the defense not to dominate tonight. 

 

Sounding like very few starters will play tonight. Not sure if this only applies to the offense but wouldn't be a surprise if it doesn't.

Calcaterra is hurt but basically already won the job

Random musing...

Calcaterra is one of the weirder stories on the team. 2nd/3rd round talent who fell to the 6th round because of head injuries. Proceeds to be mostly healthy but sits behind Jack freaking Stoll for 2 years.

 

Alright, give Pickett a series or two and then put McKee in. I do not want to watch Pickett dink and dunk for a half.

Becton has won the RG job officially.

Mostly healthy? Calcaterra? With the Eagles? Seemed like he was injured all the time.

Really can’t be an NFL thing.  That would be against anti trust laws.  Has to be a team by team basis.  Their antitrust exemption is limited.  It’s an IT block that keeps product that does fall within the property subject to real intellectual property.  It’s kind of lazy as it blocks all their video.  

BTW the Google algorithm for YouTube stinks because its inability to target ads like Google search.  I search info on a widget I want to buy and Google target ads appear (to the extent there is an antitrust suit on the practice).  I watch a cooking YouTube or football YouTube and they hit me with political ads. 

I don't know anti-trust law, so I can't speak to that.  I assume NFL and Youtube want the traffic going straight to Youtube, not just embedded picture.

BUT, I do know political ads.   They aren't targeted at Google searches or anything else.   They want to hit EVERYBODY... and annoy everyone until the election finally comes.  Equal opportunity annoying.

Maybe I'm misremembering, I don't know. I never got the obsession with Stoll (blocker yadayada - there are blockers who can catch the damn ball) so maybe I'm too biased

Maybe he wants to be in women's boxing in the LA games.

We definitely watched two different plays. The run is through the A gap vacated by the 3-tech DT and you're blaming the 9-tech edge rusher. Mmmkay.

When the play began, the A gap was between the C’s left shoulder and the LG’s right shoulder.  When the play ends, he is blocking that.  The B gap is between the LG’s left shoulder and the LT’s right shoulder.  As it happens Davis is blocking that too.  But the RG pulls moving the gaps.  White moves with the pull suggesting a change in gap responsibilities for him.  So now we have Carter blocking the B gap and Davis blocking both A gaps, still double teamed.  That means when Baun gets engaged by the RG in the C gap and White is covering the B gap. But like Baun he over steps.  The LT peels from Davis who is now engaged with the LG, who he has been engaged with throughout the play.  He didn’t vacate the gap. He is the only player double teamed. 

I beg to differ with the term 9-tech edge rusher.  That’s not his role.  It is to seal  the edge.  He didn’t do that.  Yep, Richardson way misplayed the play.

Interesting that Bryce Huff is playing but no other starting D-linemen is
