Donte Jackson likely OUT vs Houston

This is by far the biggest injury of the weekend (outside of Cam).

 

Houston has 2 of the fastest WR in the league (Fuller & Stills).  They routinely run 9 routes.  Jackson is our only corner with enough speed to match them.  It's very concerning to have Cockrell or Elliot or anyone else on either of them.   Expect them to attack us deep early and often.

 

Any thoughts on how to mitigate this?

So is he still floating somewhere above Arizona or has he come down yet?

On a serious note, we mitigate this by unleashing Bruce Irvin and Brian Burns on Desean Watson. Their offensive line is terrible and our front 7 should be able to get to Watson at least 6 times this week. Play Cover 3 and 4 and unleash the beasts that we paid so dearly for. That will mitigate Watson's running, provide help to the corners, and help shorten the game assuming we can run the ball effectively.

Go for the Under on the total, go for 6 sacks for the Panthers, and a likely 2 to 6 point victory for either side.

Did he hurt his groin jumping 40 inches in the air?

I honestly have no idea.  He was limited in practice on Wednesday and then completely out Thursday and Friday.  I don't recall seeing him hurt after that and I don't think he left the field.  That's a good guess though.

I expect Houston to abandon the run and throw downfield all day and this game be a shootout. 34-30 area of points. I hope Allen is up to the challenge

This is exactly what I would do.  They have 3 really good WR.  Our secondary will be test big time.  Running intermediate and deep routes will take our LB  out of pass coverage game too and we will rely solely on our secondary to defend (without DJ, this is bad bad news)

Sheesh. 

The season can play out a million different ways as it pertains to the draft. But there's a range where if the pick falls within it that paying Bradberry AND drafting a Fulton/Diggs makes perfect sense. 

Next man up, good thing Cockrell looks decent so far 

Cockrell absolutely looks solid.  But he's not a speed guy at all.  If we have to use him as our #2 CB then we put Elliot in at nickel.  It weakens two positions at the same time.

We need pass rush big time to survive this game because Watson is going to exploit the hell out of this injury.  And KK is hurt too so then our pass rush is losing the best DL we have.  

 

Bad bad bad bad.

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      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)

      Strength of Schedule for 2025

      I think there's a ton of potential in that WR room. But they really are unproven right now. Hopefully they live up to the hype.

      Some...concerning UNC / Belichick news

      By Basbear · Posted

      My unbelievable pile is touching the moon now-a-days. Bill is ultra control freak if there was ever one in the NFL, he's the guy. He stayed off SM and hate hate hated the media..........(wow bill what did you do in 2024??!?!?!).  So this guy, 100% control freak, just gave away all his SM to a 24 year old?? He doesn't understand SM at all... This is the same level as 8 time SB winner coming to coach UNC, after all this NIL BS that drove out his other control freak coaching friends.  This time line is insane.
