    Ah, yes. The "End of Week Optimism" post, which always shows up after everyone gets all their anger and hopelessness out from the previous week's game because folks get tired of posting the same depressing takes.

    Then the game happens on Sunday and the vicious cycle starts again.

    that was a well designed play is what that was, plus minn's corner bit on the inside route. play was set up almost like a down the field screen with fitz there to run as a blocker. very nice

    All these takes on personnel matchups are great but the x-factor here that I'm glad you pointed out is that Bruce Arians is probably the best gameday tactician in the league.

    I will give them credit for being the first crappy team we've played that isn't delusional about how crappy they are. 

    The difference is they're coming off a demoralizing loss as opposed to a big "Maybe we turned a corner!" win.

    Slip up here and that board looks completely different once Week 16 rolls around.

  4. The great thing about the NFL draft is the incoming talent pool is typically deep enough that, aside from a need at QB (which they don't have, despite what some on there think) there's no such thing as "no man's land" for a draft pick.

    Star -14th, Short - 2nd round, Benjamin - 28th, Thompson - 25th, etc.

    The problem is their drafts from about the 2012 NFCCG season on are reminiscent of the drafts at the end of Hurney's tenure, and once the veterans from those teams left, that drafting got exposed.

    In many ways it's a carbon copy of the Panthers' post-2008 era, let's just hope that if they move on from Ryan they don't find their Cam, and when they move on from Dimitroff they don't find their Gettleman.

    Don't understand not giving CAP a jersey. Rivera talked about giving him some carries while monitoring Stew's workload during his presser Wednesday. Thought for sure we'd see him get a jersey today.

    Between Cam, Fozzy and Tolbert that's ample opportunity to limit him if they really want to.
