FWIW We Get 5 December Games This Season

Recommended Posts

@ Saints (we'll win in their house to do them the deed back)

Vikings (we'll win because no Dalvin Cook, December game at home)

Packers (we'll win this, December game in our house)

Bucs (we'll win, December at home)

@ Atlanta (we'll win this because first ever game in their new stadium, December game, we'll win this)

Alright, so we can already pencil in 9 wins ... our 4 current wins with what will be an undefeated December 5-0

We have the perfect week for a Bye which is Week 11 and then Week 12, the last November game (Nov 26th) we get the Jets in New Jersey. (looking at our road record and it being the Jets I'll say we will come out of the Bye week and win in NJ. Now we're at 10 wins

Now let's get recent. We're currently on a mini Bye week. We'll come out of it the afternoon of October 22nd against the Bears in Chicago. Our next four games before the Bye (@ Chicago, @ Tampa, Falcons, Dolphins) we'll probably go 3-1

We'll probably be 13-3 or 12-4 at worst this year, and in a catastrophic type event, 11-5 .. so, while this loss stings for fugs sake let's keep it sane.

BTW - the decision not to put a dent in the confidence of Graham Gano by not attempting a 58 yarder he'd of missed was the right decision. Put your kicker in position to succeed. Yeah 58 isn't unreasonable but it's still a shot. A missed FG believe it or not is momentum to the other team. At that point there was no reason. Let him kick a 58 yarder to win it, not kick one to win it with a prior miss from deep. 

Would you guys have wanted Graham to attempt a 58 yarder to win it if he'd already missed one from 58 before the half ? It's about confidence and streaks for kickers

No games are ever slam dunks, but I think we can at least count on Chicago, Miami, New York, and Tampa Bay at home going our way. That puts us at 8. I also think we have an awesome chance against Tampa away, and Minnesota. The real test will be if we are able to snag one or two wins from Green Bay, Both Atlanta games, New Orleans. I can honestly see us finishing at 12-4, 13-3 if we play lights out

    • It’ll be interesting to see how the board falls I completely agree with you on TE for us The safety from Oregon would be the cherry on top for Evero’s defense/scheme.  If a OL’men is there that you love it would be very hard to pass up. This fan base seems to just see Walker as a stop gap but I wouldn’t be so sure. He’s the same age as Ekwonu. He’s had a much more impressive career arc/progression than Icky has. He’s the better pass protector. As far as I see it if Walker has a good year I’d bring him back over Icky. Ekwonu isn’t some elite franchise LT. Playing next to Lewis is going to be great for Walker much like it has been for Icky. We definitely need to get younger/cheaper on the OL though so for this reason alone it’s still top of my list come round 1 if board falls this way  Could also use another corner with Mike Jackson’s deal up after this season and needing a nickel but Corey Thornton looked really good in that role in the limited time we got to see him. However he’s coming off an achillies injury and you never know with those.  Then as mentioned above we do still have a need at WR. As far as “weapons” go it’s kind of a 2 man show with Tmac and Coker and neither is a burner. If Jordan Tyson is there at 19 and we can have a young WR group locked up for cheap that’s a huge advantage cap wise  And don’t forget linebacker. That clip in Devin’s Lloyd blueprint they used from Evero saying they need more intelligence there could’ve been left out for Wallace’s sake but it’s true. Wallace is lost in coverage. Pair a smart linebacker with Lloyd and that’s a group with Wallace and Cherelus being depth 
    • The fact that this is even a discussion is a testament of the level of front office badassery that's going on. 
    • Not always. LT was for the Giants. So was Ray Lewis. Von Miller was moreso than Manning his final year in the season that shall not be named. It's usually the QB, but not always.
