  1. I'd go that route just because the Bucs aren't likely to do much offensively in general. I did hear Matthew Berry say he was a sleeper for him though because he thinks Martin will get benched for not being any good, but TTFWIW.
  2. Ola cannot be our seventh best OL. I don't believe it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk He's not been a complete disaster filling in and probably would have been in the top five in many recent years. But yeah, Slauson definitely needs to get back. I also thought Briggs looked quicker to the ball than he'd been the first couple weeks. May be completely wrong, but he looked better to me last night.
  3. I will say this for the running game. 1) It was probably not a huge part of the playbook to begin with, given our struggles with running the ball so far, and the Jets being a very good run stopping defense. But also, 2) once Fiametta left due to injury, they probably abandoned even more of the run game. They still used Forte with those short over the top dump passes to make up for some of what they weren't getting in the rushing game. That one sweep was kind of ballsy and good. Yeah, that was an amazing dump truck sized hole to run through that they never got close to replicating the rest of the game. Trestman really seems to like running the sweep in 3rd and short situations and it makes me really nervous. It seems like they get it more often than not though.
  4. Made all the wrong choices this week and got bailed out by that last Jets FG.
  5. That is the most Cutler picture ever. Also, I would like it to be referred to as the Fuller Fist. He's so good and if he's already figured out how to do that, damn.
  6. Even if you aren't a big fan of him, he's #2(!!) on our depth chart right now. But projection wise he's really just Dubrount/Strailey. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Would you say the same thing if his FB averaged 92 instead of 90?
  7. What has he done or not done in his entire pitching history that makes you think he doesn't deserve it? He's shown the ability to do what he's doing now at every level. He's more than likely not going to have a low 2s ERA like he does now for the season next year, but to expect a low to mid 3s seems reasonable to me. His FIP this year is 3.22 and his K/9 could easily tick up a bit since he's at 5.2 this year and was 7.7 as a whole in the minors, including 8.2 at Iowa this year.
  8. I tend to side with TT here, especially since there's a non-zero chance that CJ or Pierce are ready to contribute to the big club and be emergency options at worst some time in June/July if they stay healthy.
  9. J Bell, Reggie Bush or T West for my RB2 this week?
  10. I'm watching in hi def from section 213, so no.
  11. The way he paws at him is hilarious.
  12. Yeah, he's been pretty perfect in the 2nd half.
  13. That's just a really, really well designed and executed play for the TD. Nearly undefensible with a receiver that big.
  14. Not after the way the Packers won today.
  15. He seems to be decent at the first rounders, after that, not so much.
  16. Hey, Bostic did something not terrible!
  17. Shut up. Can't believe no one noticed. He bobbled it when he was being touched and didn't control it until he was free from the receiver.
  18. Huh, that's an interesting development.
  19. He's certainly the best receiver by a wide margin That is a pansy bet. When you're chasing a guy who was the all time leading rusher, that's a tall order.
  20. Well, at least they're not getting embarrassed now. I have no doubt SF is about to run the ball down their throats on this series though.
  21. Unfortunately, that seems to be the way it happens a lot.
  22. If only we hired an offensive GURU Well, the offense kind of depends on it's two best receivers being able to do more than just stand up. If they could actually run down the field and get open, that would help a ton.
