Re: Nattering Negative Numnut

I’ve been seeing a lot of similar comments on Getsy TBH, it’s been bugging me. IMO you can’t on one hand say “Poles is the GM, he decided to move on from Fields and he knows best” then turn around and say “Getsy got a job in Vegas so he wasn’t our problem”. Do you trust Poles or not? Player movemen...

Here's hoping it was to find a better opportunity. Don't want to lose him, but he will be gone sooner rather than later. Maybe. But like he said he gets to work every day with his best friend in Poles. I’d think he would move on but maybe not. When I was working for the prosecutor’s office in Littl...

Re: How excited for the upcoming season are you?

I’m gutted we won’t be opening against the Packers. It would have been great to see Caleb lay that particular ghost to rest in week 1. I’m gutted we won’t have chance to own Rodgers Jets this season either. The bears are coming ….. Don't be. That's a trap that always gets us. Pray for both Packers ...

If you score 30 and they score 20, you’re going to win a lot of games.
I might not be the best at math, but if we scored 30 and they scored 20, wouldn't we win EVERY game, not just a lot of them. lol ;)
Eberflus would find a way to "coach" us to loss in a couple of those games.

Re: Post Draft Meatball Overreaction - Three Things

This is why Super Duper Offense needed to be made. Who gets the double team? Moore? Allen? Odunze? You can’t double team them all. What’s the defense going to do? Play in the Dime all game. Even with that, kill them underneath or run it. That’s why the Greatest Show On Turf worked. An offense with ...

Agreed. The people saying DL do have a point based on need, but when a guy like Odunze drops you do it.

I look at it like he drafted Caleb Williams and Rome Odunze along with "drafting" Montez Sweat and Keenan Allen.

He can take a punter in the 4th.

I think I read something like Taylor's punting resulted in the opposition requiring 3 more first downs per game (as opposed to touchbacks, etc). For a bend-but-don't-break defense like ours, that is GOLD. Any opportunity where we can pin someone inside the 10 yard line, I fucking want it. I watched...

I think the over arching theme here is to give the rookie QB as much support as possible and Poles has gone the route of Super Duper Offense.
