We need TD back.

I don’t know why we don’t just accept the fact that Shaq isn’t a three down LB. He is terrible in coverage and isn’t getting any better by the looks of it. The same guy who thinks he is able to cover guys in the slot is also comfortable with Colin Jones starting at safety. Neither can cover worth a damn and both got picked on heavily today.

If you are going to have him in on 3rd down he needs to be a pass rusher. He’s pretty damn good at it for a 4-3 linebacker.

Mayo is straight trash and sadly Shaw has basically just looked like a more athletic version of Mayo so far this season. There's no reason why TD shouldn't resume his usual role once he's back.

Is their anyway to opt out of that 5th year option we've picked up? Because there's no way he's worth $9M+ next season unless he starts playing a lot better.

Unless he suffers a serious injury, it’s not guaranteed.

If TD still looks anything like TD when he comes back we just need to honor his wishes to continue playing and let Shaq walk. Not worth $9M+. That type of money is for difference makers.

We drafted a S/LB tweener that covers like a run stopping LB and supports the run like a coverage safety. I've always defended Shaq in the past, but this is his time to shine and it's been hard to remember that he's actually been on the field.

I'm all for Shaq taking the mantle etc..etc...   But he keeps making the same mistakes over and over.  Mayo .. I can understand.. but this is unacceptable. 

As of right now... we need TD. 

The more games that pass during this period---Shaq's time to shine---I am not all for Shaq taking the mantle. His tackling and discipline is suspect.

Yep, I was all for the torch being passed to Shaq this year. Hell, I said the same thing last off-season for last season. But, Shaq IMO has shown us why that hasn't happened over the past three games. We need to see more out of this guy before we commit $9M+ in cap space to him next season. He's plenty worth his current cap value, but he's certainly not worth $9M+ based on what we've seen out of him so far.

If we can beat the Giants and get a healthy TD back at 3-1, I’m feeling excited.

Yep, it hasn't always been pretty and I hate losint to a division rival but if you would've told me that we'd have our OL decimated by injury, we'd lose Olsen to injury, Moore would be practically invisible, and our DL would struggle to produce a pass rush and then ask me if I'd take 2-1 going into the bye... I'd say, "Take it?! Are you serious?! I'd LOVE it!"

      Baseball is waqaayy better suited to statistical analysis than football. If a hitter hits a home run, it's pretty much his own effort though the point goes to the team as a whole. For a team to score a touchdown (let's say via pass) the center has to make a good snap, he and the rest of the line have to block well enough to keep the defense from getting to the quarterback, the quarterback has to throw a good pass, the receiver has to run the correct route and catch the ball, the other potential targets have to effectively play their roles, and so on and so on and so on...  Any single one of those things going wrong can short circuit the whole thing, and even if it's all done right the defense might still stop it. Individual stats just don't paint a complete picture. There are too many variables. To get an accurate picture that way requires looking at things from several different angles, something most folks are either ill equipped or unwilling to do. I don't bother with all that. I just watch the game and go by what I know.

      Bryce logic is just The Golden Calf of Bristol logic boss.  It’s the same Skip Bayless argument  doesn’t matter he isn’t very good.   Doesn’t matter he is why they are so often down.   Doesn’t matter he doesn’t really generate offense.  We got some really odd ball wins and there are some are some random late plays…it’s just a repackaged Tebowmania argument.  But more bland.  It’s a run game and D carrying the QB…..and wanting to over credit the QB

      Whew, it won't compete against the Pop Tart Bowl (#12 BYU Cougars vs the #22 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets - Saturday, December 27, 2025, at 3:30 PM ET) And yes, the Pop Tart Bowl DOES have the best marketing plan of all the bowls
