On the "positive" side

If we win next week we will be 5-3 with a 1-1 record in our division. And every single team in our division has had at least one horrific game which has had their fans clawing at their eyes. So the division is still wide open for the taking. Surely nobody can argue that we can play better than we have? Even by accident.

A loss to the Bucs pretty much wraps up the season. I’m not hopeful

Having a terrible divisional record is obviously a killer. But I wouldn't be surprised if every team splits their divisional match-ups, and I just don't see any of the teams running away with it this year. Pretty much all of the NFC South teams have been up and down. But you're right. If we play like that again we will lose.

We have to play better, period. What other teams are doing right now really doesn't matter of we can't right our own ship.

I agree that If we don't improve it won't matter. But our division rivals failings give us a little more leeway to turn it round. Look, I'm just trying to be positive. We can't possibly sustain this level of ineptitude with this many good players. I hope.

    • Darrell Jackson would be a fantastic pickup for us, I think he could replace 80% of what A’Shawn gave us last year. With more passing rush upside going forward in the future, I’m a big proponent of large framed defensive tackles. Pairing Derrick Brown with another 6’5 35inch arm length DT would be so fun to watch. Let’s continue being huge in the middle, allow our linebackers to flow to the ball uninterrupted.
    • Fully agree that the best thing to do is ignore them, which takes a away their thrill of thinking they got to you.
    • I agree with you on the pick of Thienemen in the first. I think he will still be there and he's a smart, fast and sturdy player. He's who we need back there. In the second, I like Rodriguez over Golday. I agree that off the ball linebackers are desperately needed here, even with our great FA pick up. I think with our third pick, we're going to dip into OT territory instead of the D-line. While I agree that we need another disruptor at the point of attack that is stout enough to just stonewall a center and a guard at the same time, we've got a shaky and expensive O-line at the present that is just about to age out of the game. I think we snag Blake Miller out of Clemson here and give him a year behind Moton to learn and put some weight and strength on. He can also jump right in and play right guard at any time. Also, and this might sound crazy, but anyone who has put up with multiple seasons at Clemson will be able to take the heat and humidity of training camp at the start of the season and early games against the NFCSouth.  Beyond that, your guess is as good as mine. We do need that QB for competition and realistically to study for back-up. Luke Altmyer out of Illinois seems to fit the mold of the point guard type QB that they want from Bryce. That'd make an apples to apples situation that could make coaching and game planning easy. On the other hand North Dakota State's Cole Payton could be an intriguing choice as well as a big dual threat guy. Both could be there for our fourth pick or both could be gone. Will QBs continue to slide this season like last? Who knows?
