Kenrik Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Good day, I wanted to compile a list of each playoffs team strengths & weaknesses. Come playoff time its not always about which team has the better overall talent but how strengths & weakness matchup. If you could list in order the strengths & weaknesses, then it'll make my job a lot easier. Top Strengths (in order) 1. 2. 3. Top Weaknesses (in order) 1. 2. 3. Thank you!

sparky151 Posted January 10, 2022 Share Posted January 10, 2022 Strengths: 1 Elite QB 2 Good playmakers, both receiving and running 3 Good run defense and pass rush 4 Generally good health and rested Weaknesses: 1 O-line is spotty for run blocking and allows too much pressure on QB 2 1 good CB plus a couple of adequate guys 3 Almost whole team is new to playoffs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awuzie has been lights out, Hilton has been solid in the slot, and Apple has played much better since the bye, which started, ironically, against the Raiders. Plus Waynes is still healthy and projects to play a lot more in a rotation. I'd substitute covering elite TEs to the list, which is in play with Waller this weekend.

Xenos Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 Any of you guys subscribe to The Athletic. They actually have two good writers covering this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to, but when I went to renew they wouldn't give me any sort of deal except full price (which is like $72/year or something), so I passed. Good stuff there, but I didn't have time to read it often enough to justify the cost. Now i'm seeing the $9.99/year deal they are putting out there, but still probably won't mostly because of not having the time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those two guys are the reason i subscribe. If Dehner had stayed at his previous gig i probably wouldn't. Their podcast is on point, and i like most of what they write. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They actually have two good writers covering this team. They're great. I guess it can be spotty though. Blue Jackets (hockey) writer is fine, but not as active as some other writers for that sport. Reds are pretty well represented along with Ohio State for football and basketball. So I'm pretty well covered for the things I care about, but I know that's not the case for everyone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I got a whole year for like $15-$20 this year 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
