Can we get a Poe update?

The defensive line consistently created pressure, especially on the interior. Multiple times, our d-line pushed the interior into Fitzi's face. But going unheard if any of this was from that waste Dontari Poe? I saw Short actually make plays yesterday, but is Poe still collecting that free paycheck? Need to see videos. Saca.

I don't have the game recorded, but I thought one of Mario's sacks was on pressure initially caused by Poe.

Yup his backfield disruption caused that sack directly he definitely earned his check yesterday I don't know what game you saw Rum

Big Vern was demanding double teams and creating pressure when he wasn't. The Bradberry near INT on 3rd and short was because Butler got in and stinger splashed Fitzpatrick to force the throw. The personal foul he got called for doing it again later was ticky tacky considering they didn't call the previous hit.

Not sure what the reason was. Maybe they expected the Bucs to throw it more often and like Butler as a pass rusher better than Poe? I didnt see anything about Poe being hurt either.

    • So how about the Mondays after we lose? Because those Mondays after the Jags, Pats, and Bills games better have been run suicides until your legs fall off...
    • Saints trade WR Shaheed to Seahawks Seahawks get: WR Rashid Shaheed Saints get: 2026 fourth-round pick, 2026 fifth-round pick Seahawks' grade: A- Saints' grade: B+ One of the NFL's hottest passing teams just got better. The Seahawks currently rank third in EPA per dropback (0.25) and first in success rate on dropbacks (53%). And now they are adding Shaheed in a move that makes sense both on the field and in terms of where the Seahawks are as a franchise. Shaheed, 27, is averaging 1.8 yards per route run this season. But I think that sells him short because that number is down a bit from his career average entering this year (2.0) and he's been playing a role that includes running fewer vertical routes (34%) compared to last year (44%). Shaheed also has consistently posted above-average open scores in ESPN's receiver score metrics, including a 63 this season that ranks 28th among wide receivers. As a complement to Jaxon Smith-Njigba, I expect Shaheed will run downfield more often and be a bigger threat in that role than rookie Tory Horton was. When Cooper Kupp returns, he and Shaheed will make for a nice pair of secondary threats behind one of the best receivers in the league in Smith-Njigba. This is the time to strike for the Seahawks. FPI gives Seattle an 84% chance to make the playoffs and a 5% shot at winning the Super Bowl. This addition helps boost their chances without mortgaging their future the way the Colts did in the Sauce Gardner trade. Shaheed is a pending free agent but given the leverage of the moment for the Seahawks and their need I think they ought to be plenty willing to pay the cost. Shaheed is young enough to where if Seattle doesn't retain him he should sign a free agent contract that would yield Seattle a compensatory pick -- if the Seahawks don't nullify that pick with signings of their own. Because the Seahawks currently have $79 million in cap space next year, per OverTheCap, getting that compensatory pick is not guaranteed. The Saints are not rolling in cap space the way the Seahawks are -- and thus would land a compensatory pick for Shaheed -- but they got more draft capital this way than they otherwise would have. Considering New Orleans' 1-8 record, this should have been an easy decision.
