Howie is getting major praise for his moves today.   Idk...these are some old dudes...but atleast they are cheap.

Well like I said before,we have a string of teams with good RB's coming up. If we want a SB run,we need to stop them

SB able to rotate them,why he made more than 1 move,he knew none of them could play every snap(so that's smart too)

Exactly the point I was thinking when I saw these moves. We need the DL rotation like we had in 2017. Couple that with quality LB's & secondary and you have a very respectable D. Of course, "TACKLE DAM IT!"

Even if Davis is a bit limited,he can be in that same rotation once he's ready

I'm still bishing about how soft we played,how far off. OK they are running on you,but when we DID force a pass we were easily 3 yards or more off. CB's gotta play them tighter than that and let the S's do what they do. So I will bash Gannon on soft secondary plays called. I understand about not wanting to get burned deep,but you can't play off 7 yards and give up 15 yards on a 3rd and 4

Old but I think they can handle 15 snaps, maybe 20. That is all we need them for. Plus I feel they can plug holes on the O-Line. Suh was great at that,

I can't remember, did they play press. If they did, apparently not much from your statement here.

    Our defense is not a smash mouth D. It is more of a finesse D. We have solid players, but how many hits have you seen this year that "WOWED" you? I have seen more from our Offense

Agree....these 2 " WERE"  good players.   In 2022 they were available in mid November.   That's all I'm saying. Maybe slow the roll a little for now until we see what happens.

  Well, it could also be they were asking for too much cash, so no one was willing to sign them. In their shoes, I would jump at the idea for playing with this team though and would take less.

May be why we got them on the cheap? Anyone know what they were signed at?

1/2 season 2 for 1. Fire sale. Put an "immovable lump" in the middle of the line. Gotta go around

Well we need more finesse if we're going to play that way. I don't need a ballet recital 7 yards off the cover. Any #4 WR can catch a ball if there is noone around

  Suh said their were teams interested but he wanted to wait for a contender.

Between the dilaudid and the oxy I'll probable regret later what I've been feeling about the Eagles. What I think about us may be handle tomorrow, what I feel may take a while.

I feel for ya.

Taking those Opiods gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "crap a brick"

Well i didn't say "crap" but you get the idea

What other options were there?

Would you rather roll with a run D that was giving up 6 yards per carry?

Because of the crisis,you need a "track record" or they are very very difficult to get. It's sad because sometimes they are denied by those that need them

Idk... but that's my point.   I don't disagree with the moves... just think the love for Howie for this is a little much.   I'm not talking about on this board...  just seeing it all over the place where they are acting like Howie just made the best moves since the Louisiana purchase!

was under the knife when HR made these moves but had thought about Sue even before Davis got hurt. Still po'd about the way we played. Now that GB has learned to run the ball, need to get the new guys up and running in our run D. Saying the obvious under heavy opoids which aren't always doing the trick - lots of pain receptors in the feet.

Gabepentin. Many on here are on those. Imagine you are too lol. OK stuff,helps a little bit. I could use some big time pain killers LOL. I will be scheduled for surgery in the next month I believe. if things go right(or wrong as the case may be) I won't be needing them LOL

Have gaba around but they gave me oxy, still a ton of pain

So we need Rams to beat Saints

Lions to beat Gmen
