Redzone Defense

Needs to be better. We dominated on defense all game except for 2 redzone drives that gave them 14 points. Lindley has no business getting them to the 1 yard line through the air on both those drives against us, and then getting a TD pass and the RB getting a 1 yard TD. Not going to be good enough against Seattle or Green Bay if we let up easy TDs like that. Overall, I'm ecstatic with the D's performance and obviously they wouldn't have been in that position if not for the turnovers, but we can't overlook those two drives. Hope McD and Rivera can address this and correct it.

    • Correct this logic I might if it meant taking his guaranteed money now and spread it over 3 years (2026-2028) and maybe add $6m.  I am not sure you can do that, or that he would do it, but it would be a way for him to extend his career and bank accounts and we would be getting him for $6m for 2 years (if healthy), basically, since his entire salary is guaranteed now.  If not, we lose an additional $6m spread over 2 years.  So let's say his guaranteed $$ for 2026 is $18m.  Give him a $24m contract ($8m per) through 2028.  Worst case:  We get $10m in cap relief now and create $3m dead cap for 2 years (2027-8).   Best case?  We get cap relief now and a good/decent guard/tackle for 2 years (2027-2028) and the total salary per year when he is active would be $12m if you don't count any money for the season he cannot play.  That is a good value, and we'd basically be getting a 50% discount rate.  Since we have so much guaranteed now, extending him is not as crazy as it seems.   Something has to be wrong with this logic...      
    • I don't disagree about Nikishin's potential availability, but Hamilton as a replacement? Not an upgrade in my book.
