This is just stupid. No, not Kyle Allen starting, but announcing it this far in advance. Why? It flies in the face of competitive advantage. The Saints did the right thing this past week. They waited until the last possible moment to announce their starting QB. Why? Because it forces your opponent to hedge their bets. If you don't know which QB is playing you have to either guess and go all in on one guy or half ass prepare for both.

Rivera: "Dennis Daley is our best option at left tackle."

Gotta wonder if we're just shelving Little for the year.

I'm fine with doing whatever is best for the young man but it speaks volumes that he doesn't even seem to be in the plans right now.

I said the same thing in another thread.

Ron Rivera is so stupid it hurts sometimes.

It is concerning for sure.  I hate it for Little personally and also for the team b/c he seemed to be doing quite well, especially in pass protection, which has been extremely problematic to say the least.

They need to do what's best for Little.  I do hope he is able to come back at least by next year.  I am hopeful him and Daley can provide a long-term future on the left side

Yeah, it would be nice if Little and Daley could lockdown the left side of the OL for the future. 

I'd still be fine with spending a fairly high pick on an interior OL even if that was the case. Sorry, but Trai and Paradis are overpaid JAGs at this point.

I'm just hoping the team isn't looking past the Titans with the Packer game looming in 2 weeks. 

We're actually undefeated vs AFC opponents thus far in 2019. We just keep losing pivotal games against NFC opponents which will completely unhinge our ability to contend for a wild card playoff spot.

Little things like that is why we need a new coach. I'm so fuggin jealous that the Packers got (who I wanted had Rivera been fired) themselves a good young offensive head coach in LaFleur and got rid of McCarthy (aka Rivera) and are rolling right now. WE could be that team right now. Instead, we're stuck with this.

      Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"

      I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
