If Silotolu Starts...

the only games we win are the ones where the defense can  dominate.  Amini single-handedly almost cost us this game.

As soon as he was on the OLine, every play crumbled.  We couldn't move the ball.  If Jarrett were any kind of smart, he'd have punted on the 4th and 10 and pinned us.  Lucky for us, he was world-class stupid with play calling and time management.

Cam won't last half the season if we have to start Amini.  At this point, I don't want him near an NFL field unless it's for the opposite team.

I agree he is a drive killer and will get your QB killed. Even when Taylor Moton got beat he at least tripped two Cowboys Defenders to prevent them from having a free shot at Cam. Amini doesnt even have the awareness to hold or grab a facemask. I hope Corey Robinson starts this week.

Yeah, Amini isn't starting material. He isn't second string material. He was suited up and could fog up a mirror when the team had nobody left to throw into the game who knew the play calls.

We got lucky that we had a lead and that our defense can hold ground when we need it to.

I don't think Rivera was on the sidelines just rocking the happy dance that Amini was going into the game.

Stop it. Do any of you not realize Amini DIDNT START THE GAME. He started TWO rookies over Amini. That should tell you everything you need to know. Amini went in bc the new swing tackle isn't up to speed yet. Stop bitching about a good decision that you don't understand.

up to speed? lol as an o linemen you either pass block or run block, there is nothing to get up to speed with.

Yes.  We all realize that.  Do *you* realize that we started *ZERO* rookies on the O-line?  Not two?  In fact, our only rookie O-lineman was inactive yesterday.

The guy *directly* cost us one point.  No debate.  He may have cost us three more, depending on the blocking responsibilities for CMC's fumble near the goal line.  Yea, Amini was in as the jumbo tackle on that play.

Honestly . . . the decision everyone here is baffled about is not why Amini was in the game.  It's why he's even EMPLOYED.

Do we still even know whether Robinson is healthy or not? I've still heard no update on how his foot injury is going.

If Robinson is not ready to start next week we need to strongly consider signing or trading for someone.  Unfortunately, Sirles is not even an option for us until Week 6.

Silatolu has taken over the whipping boy mantle from Brentin Bersin.  He shouldn't be starting or necessarily even on a team with OL depth.  However, at this point, our OL depth is as bad as WR depth was until recently.

Silatolu is not 100% to blame.  He is not a starting caliber OG, let alone an OT which he was pressed into being yesterday.

But yeah, the coaching staff needs a better plan than to just start Silatolu and hope for the best

Yeah we basically didn't have a T. The look in Amini's eyes when lined up said it all lol.

    • I think the same thing, they don’t have any better options especially since Christiansen is out for the year 
    • It wasn’t completely his fault, but outside of two throws and one or two scrambles he didn’t do much to help. His accuracy was all over the place, numerous passes that were placed poorly and didn’t give the receiver a good chance to catch the ball or do anything with it after. He also continues to display terrible pocket awareness. Even the sacks could have been avoided, they weren’t immediate like the pressure we got on Shough at times. Bryce just often has no feel for pressure and stands there waiting to get sacked after numerous seconds have passed. 
    • I really fuging hate this era in so many ways.  I look at those Adin Ross and Neon kids, and I just wonder why tf are they famous?  Why would anyone be desperate enough to gain THAT audience that they’d risk money, career, disciplinary action to go up there and associate with those fuging dweebs?  And back in my day, racist peers got their ass beat.  And not endorsing or approving bully culture, but checks and balances and all…  had those two been bullied, or at the very least humbled, they wouldn’t be famous and glorified for being the fuging idiots they are now.  It seriously pisses me off… they both have done and said multiple, openly racist stuff and major media keeps pushing them, talking about them, and propping them up… and then dummies like Puka who don’t need the platform or exposure lend their celebrity to them.  fuging idiot… and even the other streamers, I don’t get - Speed, Kai…  I don’t understand making nobodies famous at all, but there is at least entertainment value to some degree there, and I could see how young, impressionable kids would find them something to aspire to (sadly), or view as “cool.”  But Ross and Neon?  They’re just shitty, shitty nerds with big ass mouths. I’ve went back recently and watched some classics (in two very different eras and categories 😂)  like Robocop and Idiocracy.  And what I find fascinating is how both movies illustrate how stupid society became by showing what the citizenry is entertained by.  In both, society became anti-intellectual and the citizenry were entertained by lowest denominator, primal-type absurdity - poo like, “Ouch! My Balls!”  Or on Robocop, a guy is a watching a show where they are smashing cakes on ladies’ breasts and then a guy says a line as the camera zooms in like, “I’d buy that for a dollar!” and the audience thinks it’s hilarious.  That’s where I feel like we are now.  Like who watches that clip with Puka and thinks any of that poo is funny or cool?  If I was Puka, I’d honestly be wondering why tf I’m hanging out with these beta ass, racist, cretin ass weirdos.
