Chinn may have the best rookie year of drafted DBs..

Ouch. I didn't realize that Delpit ruptured his Achilles. The ACL gets all the attention, but the Achilles is a far more devastating injury to come back from. Most guys come back a shadow of their former selves. Trying to come back from that injury as a rookie... man, that sucks. I wasn't super high on him already, but his career may have been derailed before he ever really had a chance to show what he might be able to truly do at the NFL level.

Chinn needs to add another 15-20 lbs to be a LB. What is the obsession on having Chinn play LB? I don’t want a Haason Reddick 2.0? Chinn was drafted to play safety. Play the kid at safety and leave him alone!

Not an obsession, it's where he has been playing in camp.  We are good at safety, so playing him at LB this year in Shaqs role makes sense.

Did we forget Jeff Okudah was drafted? 

AFAIK its not even known for sure Okudah will be Lions week 1 starter.  As of last Sunday there was still serious doubt if he'd be ready to start.

So for me, it’s still a little discouraging that Jeff Okudah hasn’t come out and at least made it perfectly clear he belongs above Amani Oruwariye and/or Desmond Trufant on the depth chart out the gate. Nothing against either of the other two, they just didn’t cost a third overall pick for their services.

Still … with the 2020 restrictions – not starting Week 1 would be a red flag, but not a real cause for concern, yet.

    • More so than the stats it was against that killer defense in their own stadium, the same defense that made Mahomes look like a total JAG in the SB. The way Bryce handled adversity all game was simply phenomenal , the off script play in the end zone, scrambling out of a sack/safety to find XL deep was one of the best plays we have seen out of a Panthers QB on what should have been a game winning drive
    • He’s about to be 0-12 in the conference finals and we’ve been outscored 16-4 in this series after only losing 2 games the previous two rounds and looking really in control of the series. There’s major red flags here as to why he seems so overmatched once he gets to a certain level. There comes a point where “just getting there” isn’t good enough. We are at that point. 
    • Listening to the post-game, and holy poo! Has Rod ever said, "this one's on me." When asked about composure, he threw Staal and Martinook under the bus. "Those 2 can't be your best players." Disregarding that he didnt answer the question, does he realize how that sounds to professional athletes? When asked how you prepare for game 4, "I'm not even thinking about that." Clearly, Rod.
