Ryan Kerrigan must have had the most invisible 34 snaps of any player in history.

Wow yeah, I wasn't even sure he played as I can't remember hearing his name or even seeing him on the field.

Definitely low key day, at least he didn't. Get any penalties or make any bone headed mistakes where he would be noticed.

It's not like anyone got a ton of sacks yesterday folks let's give Kerrigan a little time

I think sending Dillard to the Bears makes sense but seeing as they don't have their 1st or 4th round picks from the Fields trade, I highly doubt they would be that fast to move more picks.  If the Bears want Dillard, they most likely would be looking to send a player for him.  I'd honestly see if they are willing to let go of Roquan Smith.  

I'd love that but I sincerely doubt Chicago would do that move. Maybe we can get one of their second string up and comer back 7 pieces. I'd even try a Dillard & Nelson for Jaylon Johnson, but that's probably not realistic either. 

Worried about the defense against the 49ers.  Much better running team than the Falcons.  Falcons were having their way with us in the ground until they abandoned it for the pass to try to get back in the game.

I thought so/think so too but the Lions put up almost 500 yards and 33 points against them(9ers did have 3 turn overs). 

I look at the Lions as a both 5... maybe bottom 3 team

289 yards of that was after the Niners went to a prevent defense in the 3rd quarter with a 38-10 lead.

@4for4EaglesNest if you could quote so the fraud can see it.  He does not want to discuss football with me after the beatings.  But I will play nice and not bring up his past transgressions if he is man enough.

Maybe Dillard and 4th or 5th for Smith.  Then lock Smith up.  Use 75% of picks next years on DE and DB's.  Defense would be set.

No way are they giving up Smith for that. Maybe Dillard and a 2nd, maybe.

Like i said above that was a Detroit special. They did this all the time with Stafford. Get down big midway or late in the 3rd. Make a huge comeback when the team took their foot off the gas. Windup still losing but it looks close at the end. That’s really just the lions being the lions.

The giants had a chance to actually make that pick decent. Darrisaw was starting them straight in the face and they badly needed oline help. They decided to be morons and take a wr even though they had golladay, Shepard and slayton. This was more of gettleman just being a moron. That said their saving grace is Daniel jones sucks and at least they’ll have their own high pick as well as the bears high first round pick to go get a QB next year. 

Yup.

I really liked toney, I thought he could be a really dangerous slot, and I thought he was a 3rd rounder possibly late 2nd, that giants took him in the first when they needed help elsewhere was mind boggling.

That giants team isn't very good not sure what gettlemen is doing but then again F em.

The best case scenario is for the Titans to come back down to Earth,  Tyrod Taylor keeping the Texans competitive and the Jags to get some surprise wins behind Lawrence so the AFC South has to remain competitive.  If the Colts know they have nothing to play for by week 11-12, the smart thing from a franchise standpoint is to sit Wentz and save your 1st round pick.  However, if every team in their division is just in that .500 range then they have everything to play for.

Going to be interesting see how it all plays out.  

I know it’s the smart thing to do from a franchise standpoint, but it’s really hard to imagine a team benching a starting QB for multiple weeks because they want their 1st round pick. I think we tend to forget these are real people playing who have their own careers potentially on the line. Moves like that is what makes people leave. Doug did it for 1 week and there was an uproar.

The Titans are the biggest Jekyll and Hyde team. Last year they blew the doors off the bills like 45-16. Then a couple weeks later the Colts destroyed them by 17. Then two weeks later they destroyed the Colts. Followed by a couple weeks later the browns were up 30 at the half against the Titans. The Titans defense is the biggest issue. They were really bad last year for most of the season. Yesterday they didn’t look much better and what made it worse the Cardinals pass rush just destroyed their oline so the offense got nothing going either. 

The more I think of the game the more god awful I think the Falcons are 

Tough to get a feel for Sirianni's philosophy but I love the game plan

Keep it basic, dont take many chances, and dont beat yourself.  Both sides of the ball played out that way

Long term, I think thats the only approach you can take on defense.  Anything else and youre living dangerously 

On offense, other than going for a couple 4th downs, it was really conservative. Even the 4th down calls were conservative. I think some, maybe a lot of that, had to do with Hurts himself playing things safely.  It will be interesting to see if it changes when theyre forced to

True, and they looked pretty bad.

That sucks for the lions. That said if it was something with his knee caps i would’ve directly looked at Dan Campbell

I mentioned yesterday that everyone in the front four played well, but honestly, I completely forgot about him. Very invisible. 

The Jared Goff treatment. 

Note: That’s more of a Pat on the coaching staff’s back than a slam on Hurts.

Hargrave was a beast. Him or Cox 1on1 vs any guard was a total mismatch

The 49ers were up 41-17 on the road in the 4th quarter. They are a good team.

We were up 32-6 on the road in the 4th quarter.

Are we a good team?

Said it on the Mailata thread, he played unbelievable....think about it.  He has been playing football for like 3 years now, and that extension is going to end up being a bargain.  He eviscerated that poor CB on that kick out block.  When you watch them line up, he makes all the other offensive linemen look tiny.  Also remember, Jason Peters didn't start out as an offensive lineman, he was actually a Tight End.  My point, just because Mailata didn't start out as an Offensive Lineman, well....that doesn't mean he won't be one of the best.  Also on the note regarding JP, he should not be playing football any more.  He looked pathetic in the Chicago game.....which is sad.

Mailata's improvement has been nice.  This was his first exposure to real 'crowd noise'.  Not surprisingly, he had some false starts.  It comes with the territory.  He'll improve at that, too.

The two things that stood out to me about that game were that they were well-prepared and well-coached...  those are things that you should be able to replicate, regardless of the opponent...  this team will lose games because there are just better teams in the league, and if injuries crop up our depth will be exposed...  but I was pretty impressed with both Sirianni and Gannon...

I was not pleased with the 12 men on the field penalty on the first defensive series... same with the delay of game on the first offensive series.   It ended well though, that was cleaned up quickly.
