I'm as hopeful, and as loyal a fan as any, but even on our best days we aren't beating anyone in the playoffs, this just isn't the season, we were blessed with limited injuries last season, and this year just over half way through we suffered so many more at a myriad of positions. We're 3-6, and we're not going to win 7 straight games. The team, and the personnel available is too inconsistent.

I don't want another 7-8-1 type season where we back into the playoffs, I'd much rather we play for the draft picks, as much as I like and trust Gettleman, we have GLARING holes on the roster specifically T/DE/Secondary. And while I like the young pieces, we have no depth anywhere, not at any positions excluding WR/DT/LB. All other position groups are devoid of depth talent. We've all witnessed that with injuries to Oher, Stewart, and the defensive secondary.

While I want to see a run as bad as anyone, because trust me it sucks to watch my favorite team lose, I'd much rather see us be able to address positions of need via the draft, as it's been proven that we aren't ever gonna shop at Tiffany's, and I'm fine with that, but we need to have better prospects coming in. And while big men allow you to compete, it's often the little men that win the games (Eric Berry & Marcus Peters).

I hear you but I have never given up until we are mathematically out of it.

We are two games out of 1st in our division.  We still have to play Atlanta again.  We are 4 last minute loses from being 7-2.   WE have been competitive.  Just gotta get on a roll.   Start on Thursday beat the ain'ts. and those next two will be good gauges on where we are. 

While the light at the end of the tunnel is getting very small.   I won't give up.

    • Not in same league. Caldwell just hit a 10.00 on the RAS. 2nd out of 3830 from 1987 onward.  https://x.com/MathBomb/status/2027885023387349047 Yeah I mean Louis had a sub 9.00 RAS. Still very very good, no doubt. Louis is small, no 2 ways about it. He is likely a sub package lb in nickel packages or specialized WLB. Be fine ST gunner to start for sure. 6 foot flat and 220lb is pushing it for a starting LB. At 10 to 20lbs less than the other LBs he'd better be closer to the top in most timed drills. He's gonna be challenged when some of the wrs in the class can matchup bigger stronger faster, much less TE in the run game.  Yeah instinct matter and he has them, but that size is a massive red flag compared to many of the other LBS in this class.    Rodriguez is the LB that really climbed this week from a pure grit guy to great flash with athleticism people wrote off cause he was a QB at first at UVA. 18.4mph in the backpedal. Production the last 2 years were great. I'd be thrilled with him as the future mike.   Hill likely moved out of 51 and into the top 45 picks ( Ravens at 45 I can't imagine don't bite if he makes it there). Honestly Hill imo is a 1st rounder and I'd be ok with him as he fits the MLB we have missed the last few years. People would crow it's a reach but he's top 30 all-time I'm RAS for a LB at 9.9+ . Plus he was big time in big games when he was healthy. And that br a big check: meds. 
    • Miller, Melo, Coby, Moose, and Bridges all on the floor at the same time must be a nightmare for defenses lol. Switch one out for Kon and still a nightmare. Coby really does bring a true 6th man value and looks like he could start if Melo was out after only a few games of getting his feet wet.
