Damn, the only FA I really wanted.  Still early in the FA, but it's looking more and more likely that we're taking a DE in the first.  Hell, like I mentioned a few weeks back, we may even double dip.  Who knows?

Could definitely see us going with a DE early, but it's worth noting that CJ, Ealy, Addison, and Horton were the DEs we started with last season. Of course they're all still here, plus Delaire, and Ealy has gotten much better.

They may be comfortable with their DE group, I actually think we may have viewed Coples more as a potential backup 3-tech rather than DE. Would still like to draft a more prototypical RE to develop across from Ealy at LE.

And I forgot about Miley and Cox on the practice squad.  They both had solid pre-seasons, maybe they both ball out again and one ends up making the roster.  Should be interesting.

You bet your sweet nipple it would if it was up to GMan and RR.  The key is JR.  He missed out on his dream in February.  Here's hoping he doesn't give a d@mn about the other 31 that turned their back on him in the LA stadium situation, tells the rest of society to stick it where the sun don't shine, and hands Greg the Lombardi next February on a platform of forgiveness.

more opportunity for our young guys.

This is important.  Sure, you kick the tires on a former first rounder who is 25, but if they do not feel good about him being better than those competing, you don't make an offer (or a big offer).  For a 4-3 DE, Coples settled for a small contract.  That means we did not offer or offer much.  Yes, he may have been a cap casualty in Miami, but notice they did not ask him back on a reduced contract after losing 2 DEs in free agency.   I am confident he is a bust.

This guy just resigned in our nation's capital today with ZERO pushback, fanfare, or circus.  How many times is the Big Cat gonna take it up the keister while his dream is so close and his time is so short?

One has nothing to do with the other. Just because other teams have no problem with that type of behavior, does not mean that this team will. And Greg Hardy is not going to push this team over the edge to a Super Bowl win.

Agree to disagree then, to say the least.  Of course we can win without him but as we'd say in the military, I don't want a fair fight.  I want utter domination.

      Canales is holding us back

      I've seen enough tape review to see that we run crossers...we have dudes in the middle of the field. I have to think that this is a harder area for someone of Bryce's stature to hit. You have to see directly over the center of the line and is probably where the most interceptions happen (he has thrown a LOT of his picks by not seeing a dude in the middle of the field).

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      I’m pretty sure we did end up getting the first in that drive, but I don’t remember. It was obviously a catch the ball didn’t move

      NFL admits the TMac catch should not have been overturned

      By hepcat · Posted

      While I don't think NFL games are fully rigged, it's certainly closer to a scripted outcome than we all think. The NFL by their own admission in court is not a fair and balanced sporting event. It is a managed entertainment product, a "spectacle" as they've put it, that now has sports betting as a huge financial pillar of their business model. It's ridicuously naive to still think the NFL isn't using referees to manage the games towards certain outcomes, using "replays in the booth" and overturning calls, choosing to overlook penalties at critical moments and calling questionable and sometimes phantom game changing penalties at other critical junctures of games. The NFL has always done this going as far back as the '60s, and they were investigated by the FBI in the '70s which found a large number of ownership groups had ties to the mob. So when the overwhelming majority of the moneyline bets were on the Panthers vs the Saints last week, and suddenly we see some strange and ticky tack penalties we've rarely seen called on the Panthers all year, I just know there's more going on behind the scenes. And suddenly next week, the Panthers will probably be nudged to a win, to keep the NFC South race interesting, as I see the Bucs are the favorite as of now and most moneyline bets will trend towards the Bucs until during the game when the Bucs are leading heading into the 4th quarter, and the Panthers are nudged to a win. At least, that's what the NFL and Vegas probably want to happen.
