  1. Bye Lamar. He is 1-3 in the playoffs and didn't bother to travel with the team for their playoff game. Maybe help guide the starting quarterback in his place, talk him up, be a leader. But, he wants to be the highest paid QB in the league. Maybe when he puts up the numbers, wins, accuracy, and reliability as Mahomes or Allen. Hell, Joe Burrow has more playoff wins.

  2. This time of year makes me sad. I really miss the drive up to McDaniel College to watch training camp practices and grabbing lunch with you guys afterward as we discuss what we saw. Good times gone by.

  3. All I can keep thinking is: "I hope we can keep him here". This is a guy you can build a defense around that will last years.

  4. He can ctach passes from Lamar all he wants, in the off season. But when the season starts, he can catch fish in the Seattle fish markets..

  5. What Grub said, honestly, JLC has been wrong more than weather forecasters. How he still has a job in radio is beyond me. As for you being right papa, Bravo, but when other fans are right and you are wrong, old buddy, you don't give them props either. In the end, we are fans, know nothing compared to coaches or execs on a team no matter how long we spend on the net.

  11. Agreed the hangover extends into London or the team consumes some bad fish and chips . Either way, we don’t show up but even if we miraculously make it close, bad Lamar shows up, Harbaugh easily gets out coached by Vrabel, and we come home 3-3. Oh and Harbaugh throws another coach or player under the bus and explains how they’ll look at the film and get better. Book it !

  12. It is far worse than I even thought. I have been going back and forth with a dumbass. He thinks turdy is a great coach. I said he has been along for the ride and anything good that has happened to this team has been done despite him. So onto the research.

  15. This team is fizzling; reminds me of the end of the Billick era in circa 2006-7. The message is stale, there's little team character, chemistry and or substance. I think the right package - coach, OC & QB - can and should improve this teams lot. We might slide a year (2 yrs max), but Id rather do that then watch a very slow, painful bleed job.

  17. This line is actually better, much better than they played yesterday. They just had a very bad game, injuries caught up to them. We knee the rookie mountain would struggle with fast, small defensive ends. A good coach sees this and adjusts, and Roman did not adjust. Even the receivers are good enough, but using them properly, using routes designed to beat zones, get people open is the key. Roman does none of these things. As I said, this offense has gotten worse as the season has progressed, it is not as if the defenses have gotten better, quite the opposite in fact. Yes, the evidence is clear, even Harbs, the Biscuit have to see it, Roman has to go. Defenses are keeping their safeties with in 15 yards of the los, linebackers within 8. That makes it very difficult to run consistently. Before yesterday they would have to blitz to beat this offensive line, even then, the pass blocking held. The issue with the passing game was either poor route combos, or a qb who could not throw on time because he was confused, or could not throw accurately, leaving no yak. We saw proof of that at times yesterday. Huntley got the ball out quickly, timely, and accurately to provide yak. Is he the end all, certainly not. But he deserves a chance to show that this offense can score. You look at other games, Goff for crying out loud put up yards and points. Offenses see safeties 15 yards deep, linebackers 10, making it easier to not just run the ball, but have space for underneath routes, for yak. So that when there is a 5 yard pass, the receiver doesn't have 5 guys tackling him right away. The line will be fine, but they need help getting those back 7 to back off, it's all Roman.

  18. For whatever reason, we don’t play well against Jax- cant get that monkey off our backs. The D laid an egg in the 4th Q but it shouldn’t have come down to that. We should have been up 14-0 instead of 6-0 then let a weaker opponent stick around and come back. I think it’s safe to say we’ve seen Lamar’s ceiling. This team has a dysfunctional offense and has for the past four years. There’s no way we offer him a long term deal. This team in its current form has no chance to advance in the playoffs, even IF it makes it that far. And that stinks. We need to build the rest of the offense around the QB and prepare for a legit franchise QB, maybe in 23; much more likely in 24. Until we get that, we’re going to see exactly what we saw today against the bad teams and big time struggle against the winning teams. My two cents…

  22. I still have a football from the Denver playoff game Femi tossed to me. Funny story; A friend had an extra ticket, his wife couldn't make so he, I and his 8 year old son went. At half time, I head up to get a hot cocoa, Femi, who had broken his foot earlier in the season, was in line in front of me. We started up a conversation about the game, how well it was going. Then I said with a smirk, half joking; hey, if you get a chance toss me a ball, I'm sitting right behind the bench. He laughed, played along and said sure. Late in the 4th with game out of hand, Femi came within ear shot. I yelled to him, there was a ball under the bench right behind him. He picks it up and tosses it to me...

  26. Huntley should be the starter. Sit Jackson let him heal till the contract or trade him for picks. Papa has been right about harbaugh all along. He’s a motivational speaker at best and has very little football savy whatsoever. IMHO I’m not reacting to the game outcome either. It has been obvious to me for years.

  28. Why doest every parking lot in this country have solar panels in them that we park under. I just recently saw a vid on a technology they are about to use in the UK. They are going to add little vertical wind turbines to the light poles on the highways and as cars go by the wind off them turn the turbine. That is in addition to a windy day. Each one would power a few houses for a yr by the estimates. We have a lot of highway miles with probably millions of lights on them,

  33. Guards, Bullock and Jones, already on the team, question marks? Sure, but all indications are they can be really good. Why neither has seen the field is anyone's guess. Same reason maybe why Cleveland, who has shown he can be a real good guard & or center; Harbs/oc coach. Smith at mlb may be slowing but he still one of the better ones. Weak side backer yes, maybe Buchanan, but Im not sold on him. Still, the draft can help there. Left tackle, draft, some good ones in this comimg draft lower in the round, even better ones in the 27 draft which is expected to be one of the best drafts in a while. You forget, this same team, minus a player or two, had one of the top offenses in the league last year. The only major change was at guard, one guard spot. Wven with the weak play of Faalele, I might add. The biggest issue I surmise is the ol coach. Last year he said he wouldnt change much when he took over early in the season. But this year clearly he has changed something because it is no longer a top running line, nor pass protecting. The offense as a result, no longer tops in the league. Sure, the injury to Lamar missing 3 games didnt help. But aside from the Bills game, they cant or haven't run consistently nor extended drives. Remember last yesr they lead the league in 90+ yard drives. So not so far away, change the ol coach

  34. I have issues with him. But I questions Turdy's outsized influence on personnel. I have seen to many harbaugh nepo fixer upper picks. That is all John. That screams he has huge influence on who is brought in. The scouts have been undermined.

  35. Hopefully in this short bye week not only is the defense getting some rest, but also studying how to keep the edge. Teams have been killing them running on the edge, usually to the defense's left. Fix that, fix staying in your rush lane against mobile quarterbacks, and while this team is leading the league in sacks, if there was a Stat for missed sacks, they might be leading there as well. So relearn how to sack a qb, how to wrap up

  37. I'd be curious to know how many snaps Oweh and Ojaba had. I didn't hear their names mentioned at all. By the way, I was disappointed in the play-by-play guys...seemed they always were talking up the Commanders.

  38. When my wife (mis)read what she saw on the 'net today, she called out to me "Did we trade Lamar to the Colts?", I jumped out of my chair only to find she was looking at a mock draft and didn't know it was a mock. I was all excited for a brief few seconds only to have my hopes dashed. Close but no cigar!

  39. So what if they are colluding? ONE team gave an obnoxious deal to a mid tier QB who demonstrates sexual predator tendencies. Five or so QBs have gotten new contracts since Watson's and NONE are guaranteed. If Lamar had a damn agent this shit wouldn't be happening. The owners have EVERY right not to bankrupt their PRODUCT because of one dumpster fire of a team. F the NFLPA.

  41. Yep, Lamar (if he even shows up) need to play his butt off and D needs to wrap up Burrow and make him pay. Of if Brown plays again maybe he learned something from yesterday's "scrimmage". I personally think the Bengals stunk yesterday and expect a much better game from them Sunday night.

  42. That's good stuff Max, wins like this build strong foundations. When you can win on the road against a div opponent, with a quarterback you just plucked off the street, man oh man does it bring a team together

  43. I do feel that all of this: subbing in for rest for the offensive line, is costing this team continuity,. There were times Lamar barely got the snap on a deep shot gun set and he was engulfed. The running game had lanes but no one was there to block the back side? Causing a loss of yards, leaving far more yards on the field..

  44. Of course he has absolutely NO touch on his deep ball either... Ugh, I really hate how I view Lamar now, knowing he's holding out for more guaranteed money...

  45. Then explain why the titans are the 1.seed. I am not allowing them to make that excuse. Rb some a dozen and Murray and Freeman proved that. Before the sea on we were discussing if Stanley might never be right again. If the team didn't prepare for it then they lack due diligence. Some of these injuries are on the strength and conditioning. That coach brought in c0vid last yr bc he was being am ass and should have been fired then. Changes need to be made or we will get more of the same.

  46. Yep, in a game where it looks like our prospects of winning are slim and none and slim left town, i’d like to see Huntley have free reign‘s to do what it is that he can do against the Pack.

  47. Hill is a wasted roster spot, I know, I know, he is a decent special teams player. But if it windy out, he can't move unless he wants to be blown over by a 5 mph gust... Gurlie is just not dependable now, slowed by his knee injuries and can he even run in this type of offensive blocking scheme?
