The most frustrating part about this is that the strength of our defense is negated by the weakness of the offense.

They're able to generate turnovers, superior field position, etc as often as they're able to give up points.

The offense, unfortunately, is turnover prone. Just being able to protect the ball and sustain drives will put the team in position to win. With a sieve for an OL, the literal definition of feast or famine at QB, and a second year OC it's not surprising that the wheels are starting to fall off.

Then again, this is staying in line with the whole year 2 thing for Matt Rhule teams... 😮

 

Though it is worth mentioning, to be fair to Sam, when he has made the throws his targets have let him down.

We are well on our way. I know a couple lion fans. They are so worn down as a fanbase that they expect to lose and pretty much have zero hope for anything positive. 

Yup, one of my good friends is a Lions fan, and he accepts that 0-16 (now 17) is a possibility every season.  We are well on our way.

If Darnold could halfway throw with any sort of fuging accuracy, that is a TD.  I'm so fuging tired of him.  Dj smoked him and had to wait for an hour for the ball to get to him. And Darnold had all day to throw.

The ball literally came down on his head and hit him in both hands and he dropped it...

    • I have more faith in XL improving than I do in Tmac being a true number 1 recuever
    • Round 1. TMac arguably the best WR in the draft Round 2. Scour ton mentioned as a possible 1st round edge.     Texas A&M did not use him the same way Purdue did. After the 2023 season he was listed as a first round grade. I believe had Texas A&M used him like they did at Purdue he never makes it out of round 1. Round 3 Princely Umanmielen, we'll go by Princely.  Another highly graded player we got in a lower round. As the video suggests, even if he plays only on passing down it's a positive. Give him a couple of years to develop a he could be a three down player.  Round 4a Etienne IMO a huge upgrade over Blackshear. I can see him in a similar role as CMC without the heavy workload. He can run in between the tackles and has some shifty moves. Give Canales some flexibility. A fellow huddler pointed out UGA running backs don't see the field if they cannot pick up the blitz. Really good pick. Round 4b Ransom a hard hitting safety that has played three different positions on defense. Great pick Round 5a Cam Jackson a massive NT in round 5. I believe a solid rotational pick in a lower round. We added a beast that could make offenses quiver when he's lined up with Brown. Great Value  Round 5b Evans This is another player that can block and has good hands. He also had better seasons before 2024. As a rookie he's probably leaps and bounds better than Ian Thomas. I think he gives us a three headed monster at TE.  Round 6 Horn Jr. Many believe he's just going to be a KR/PR player. I believe there are going to be packages for him to get on the field as a WR. His speed with TMac and Thielen in the slot could be special. I'm really looking forward to seeing him in training camp. I've watched some film and he is very explosive.  Overall I love our picks. I honestly believe all of them will contribute this season. I don't believe we reached on one player in this draft.  This weekend we get a small look at these rookies
