The Boys have not recorded a sack yet this season. I did not watch their first game but saw on Sunday night, they got in the face of Eli often. He impressed with his play but unfortunately do not see Jake stepping up in the pocket or buying much time. Atlanta did bring a few blitzes last game and we held up pretty well, but that scheme is nothing compared to what Ware and them is gonna bring. They seemed to keep the Giants run game in check except for one run by Jacobs. I know they will be hungry, just hope we have a good game plan. One has to come around sooner or later.

Otah will own Spencer, Ware and Spears depending on who he sees. Kalil on Ratlif should be a good battle. Kalil will probably need some help from Wharton and Vincent. Ratlif isn't huge but he's quick. Wharton and Gross should hold their own. I think Gross has a good game against Ware.

This game will give us a chance to get our backs the ball in the flats. We know they will bring the heat and the safeties will have to pick up D or Stew, but they should be open for a second in the flats and have a chance at one on ones outside. I have a feeling we will need the pass game to open up the run a bit. Manningham tore up there secondary and the other Steve Smith got open a lot as well. They will key in more on 89 b/c he is our known weapon and the Giants don't have a number 1 so that helped out Manningham a bit. Jake will have to step up in the pocket and I unfortunately see quite a few batted balls at the LOS.

    • I enjoy being truthful. Although that means being unbiased. Which most on here are incapable of being unbiased. 
    • It looks like the Bucks and Giannis are headed for a divorce. He says he's ready to play and the Bucks say that he has told them he isn't. It really doesn't matter except that it likely means the end for Giannis in Milwaukee. He's 31 years old, but still an elite producer.  So, as GM, would you go after him this offseason? Remember, the Hornets have two 1st round picks this year and potentially THREE first round picks next year. What would a trade look like?
    • I agree with you, if all things are equal--assuming we are on the same page as to what that means.  If a DT and OT are there at 19 and you have them equal, which do you take? The DT would be rotational and get 25 snaps a game or so, and the OT is probably a reserve for most of the season.  What if Walker plays out of his mind and Ickey comes back strong? To me, there are just too many variables at T and Morgan met the needs for 2 starters.  Nothing about that screams lets "go OT in round 1" to me. I could see an Edge or a DT at 19 before I see OT.  I could see a TE or S before an OT--and I (personally) would rather have an OT over DT, Edge, TE, or S--but I do not see the logic.  In fact, CB is a position that resembles OT--who do we have behind our starters and are we happy with Smith-Wade?  A CB would be on the field more than a reserve OT.  How is the Walker at LT situation different than the the Bryce situation? He is basically on a 1-year deal and if he is injured, Forsythe becomes Pickett.  Would you take Simpson in the draft?  Dont get me wrong--I usually agree with you  and I get your point.  I am an OL guru--but I just do not see this particular group of Tackles making us better than Walker.  In addition, I think we can address OT once the Ickey situation clears up.  Short arms, poor run blocking, issues with strength--I am simply not impressed with the OTs.  For clarity, "developmental" refers to players who are still a year or two away from starting.  We are all developmental, but there are prospects who need a season to transition to the pro game. I see 1--maybe 2 OTs who could step into a starting role right now. In college, for example, taking snaps under center requires a different approach than blocking for the shotgun.  There is less to learn if you play a position that does not require much adjustment to transition to the NFL.
