It's time to bench Kalil

It is beyond Remmers.  I also can't imagine Amini or Moton being much worse.  Give them a try.

He has to be in the coach's doghouse after this game.  

He seriously does not block..he just holds the guy as long as he can before they blow by him or just slightly shoves the DE.

Can’t believe we handed this chump a sack of cash when Andrew Whitworth could have been in Carolina. With the vets on this team, adding another that would have actually warranted the price would have gone a long way and given us just enough time to properly address the position in another year or two when Whitworth hangs em up.

Not even just Whitworth.  Considering the cash we gave him there was Reiff, Wagner, a few others.

He held the guy (got flagged for it) and then grabbed the guy's helmet (getting another flag) in the same play AND the guy still hit Cam. 

Heck, I can't defend keeping the guy among the starters or even on the team anymore. I had hopes for him, but it's like we bought him mail order without really reading the product description.

That early play when Cam had half an hour then lay down for the sack, he did great. I was hopeful that he might bring his improved form into this game. After that though, it was his penalties that killed us. It won't get any easier for him against the Vikes. So much for the hope that he had turned the corner.

I hate Kalil as much as the next person, but Amini is the last person I want to see on the field. The few times he has come in when Turner got hurt, he looked unbelievably awful (and that is blocking a DT on pass rush). I can't even fathom how terrible he would be blocking ends on the pass rush.

No idea about Moton, but hopefully he and Williams are the starting tackles next season.

Reallllly bad.  Beyond Byron Bell, he's Nate Chandler bad.  

Seriously, when he's causing sacks and not getting RBs holes, there's absolutely no reason to keep him out there.  His being on the field is actively hurting the offense and honestly, a big reason why we're not getting it together.

Williams is a pure RT/Guard type so I wouldn't want to try him but Moton should get a look at this point.  We took him right after Dion Dawkins who's done well.  Just try it out.  Kalil needs to be benched.  He's holding the entire offense back.

    • Jalen Carter came into camp out of shape too. That was part of the reason he dropped considering he was thought of as the better defensive player pre-draft activities. It’s not a good sign when you don’t look great but it’s definitely premature.
    • We won 5 with the worst defense in the history of defenses.  I think free agency and our draft puts us over 6.5.
    • Leaning towards just ordering this tonight, but now I have no idea on size. Has anyone bought a bunch of jerseys in the last few years and can convey how the Game vs Limited vs Reebok versions all fit? These are both Mediums... The white one here is a Reebok one from 2010, and was when they had the "+2 length" on the tag and it was the version with the stitched numbers instead of iron on... the blue one is from 2022 and is the F.U.S.E Limited version also with stitched stuff, not the "game jersey" with the ironed on numbers/letters that they have the T-Mac jerseys in. The old one fits me fine, the blue one was always a tad snug on me, particularly in the shoulders I'm leaning going with a Large based on the CMC, but for all I know, that is made with a tighter cut due to the higher "limited" level and the "game" ones they have for T-Mac are cut more like a T-Shirt and thus will fit more like the old white one I have here, not sure. (and yes, I already tried going to a sporting goods store here to hopefully try on a Lions jersey to see, but they don't have any right now)
