The other games thread week 1

Recommended Posts

This week starts with a rematch of the AFC championship game Ravens at the Chiefs. The first half belonged to the Chiefs with a lead of 13 to 10.
Are there any games you're looking forward to this week, besides our game of course. I know I'm gonna be watching some of the players I wish we had drafted.

All of them because we're football starved!

But mostly - the game tonight, I think it's cool that it's in Brazil and those are two NFC playoff teams probably

Rams vs Lions should be a high scoring affair

Jets vs 49ers is a good matchup

I have to admit, I'm curious to see if Rodgers makes it out of the first quarter and how he looks.

Not to re-hash camp arguments, but just watched the Ravens struggle to protect Lamar despite having a quality LT and elite C…guess you need more than just a tackle 😉

Did they? Or did he just run into contact? He only took one sack and I don’t remember him running for his life. It was classic Lamar, hold the ball to long and eventually legs it. This time he was looking for contact

Dude was definitely running into contact, but as a runner. Someone posted it in the GDT, but his time before pressure was abysmally low. Their OL played like garbage, because it mostly is (3/5). Chris Jones gassed out in the 4th, but for most of the game he just picked and chose who he wanted to eat on the OL. Having a LT and JAGs is nice, but it doesn’t really protect you against that. One of the reasons Lamar’s ADOT was so low (and he had to hold the ball so long) was because they needed to keep guys in to protect and chip.

You have one big problem though Kansas City has Chris Jones in my opinion the best defensive player in the NFL. You need five John Hannah's to beat him. Other than mahomes he's the best player on the roster he's unbelievable

I want more than just a tackle added to this roster.

I’ve said a few times now; we need to resource it with at least 2 draft picks and/or a FA.

I think we need 2 or 3 players on the line.

New LT - new LG/Sow - Andrews/draft his replacement - new RG/Layden if he’s good - Onwenu

1st  three picks

1 st  Will Campbell LT   Best in the draft

 

2nd  Donovan Jackson  LG  1/2 in the draft.

3rd Earnest Greene III  OT   Impressive but 6'4 that why he's in the 3rd.

We have 2 above average OL ... Wenu and (old)  Andrews.  All the other are just average guys. Not good enough.

 

Every time they miss on a OT/OL it's at least 3 years wasted.

Also see Herbert with Slater + the guy who would’ve been there at #3, Joe Alt, get manhandled and struggle moving the ball against Vegas…
