Sheppard. I picked him up in Fantasy as my flex mainstay, Blount, just got hit with a hammer. I think Samuel likely gets more snaps but overall I haven't seen anything to suggest he is ready to start.

While I agree with the premise that we need more speed on offense, I don't think that the middle of the season in which we are one game out of first place, and currently in wild card position is the time to do it; especially when we get no return.

Samuel is in no way ready to be a starting WR.   Put that on him....actually hurts him IMO.  He is a project WR.  He can currently can and should be used situationally.  Largely in CMCs role when CMC isn't doing it.

if the o-line does their job

Ok but they haven’t been and there’s no magical talent switch to switch on to have them start. Our OL is our OL and this offense depended on players like KB making plays with Cam when the play had broken down

It sure seems like there's a magical talent switch the way that they fluctuate week to week. I think the line did a decent job in pass protection against the Bucs, which is a fairly stout d-line. But then they completely shat the bed against the Bears. They never have an okay game, it's either a good game or a god-awful game.

I’ve talked myself into believing that we should start Samuel at WR2 on the outside.

Im thinking that Ron quote about wanting to simplify things for him is related to using him too much as a gadget player with all the options and reverses and poo. Stick him on the outside and let him concentrate on running routes and being a WR so he can find some rhythm. Add the other stuff in once he gets comfortable.

I have no clue if any of that is true but it’s what I’m choosing to believe.

      Ekwonu doesn’t get dog walked under 2 minutes in the 4th, we drive, kick a FG and win

      A lot of young QB's struggle with holding on to the ball top long. He has gotten better progressively in that regard. Pocket Time(in Sec):  2.5(2023), 2.3(2024), 2.2(2025) Time to Throw(in Sec): 2.9(2023), 2.79(2024), 2.82(2025) The divedends have been fairly small, is the issue.

      If you can only fire ONE person before 2026....

      I'm firing DC, though I think it actually makes the job less attractive. He's not prepared to be a HC and it's showed. A new HC is not going to be tied automatically to BY. He's going to want to bring in some level of competition in the QB room because anyone who has ever watched football knows our QB room is lacking. If he doesn't, that tells a more interesting tale of who's really calling the shots.  Dave hasn't been decisive enough in game and that leadership council BS has trust fall vibes. Our offense has been pathetically stale and vanilla. Our run game while good has made no sense based on who has been playing best. Our defense is improved but they can't be expected to hold opposing teams to below 17 a game because our offense can't score consistently.  We've beaten some teams we shouldn't have beaten, specifically GB and the Rams, and I think our record doesn’t accurately reflect where the team and the coaching really is. We've fallen flat against a geriatric rookie QB leading a 2-10 NO team and got our ass handed to us TWICE. We're unprepared for the biggest games.  This is what happens though when real coaching candidates turn down interviews because your owner is a narcissistic butthole. You get someone no one else bothered to call and you get the results everyone else would have expected if they had.

      The Saints would be 2-12 if not for us. We are 50% of their wins. A organization serious about the playoffs does not get bullied by a sh*t team like the Saints TWICE. It's over my brotha.
