This NFL season is so weird and flukey that I wouldn’t be surprised if we did turn things around and make a wild card run..

I just went and looked, remember that “omg, the hardest schedule ever!!! talk” we kept talking about at the start of the season?!? Well get this, only ONE team (yes, just one)  on our entire schedule are above .500.  Which one is it?

The Broncos, I mean obviously they have the $250 million all guaranteed GOAT at QB, so it HAS to be them right?!  WRONG!  Oh, duh, Tom Brady led Bucs, right?! Guess again.  Wow, ok the Rams?! Or I know, the Bengals! Has to be the Bengals?! Or no, scratch that, the 49ers or the Ravens!! I mean one has Lamar Jackson and the other upset Aaron Rodgers last year and made the NFCCG!! Nope, nada and negative to all of the above.

Its.. The Giants!! Yes, believe it or not, that impossibly tough schedule we were originally talking about, so far it’s the lowly Giants who are at 3-1 while all other “elite teams” are just one game above us in the W/L department.

I have to say, while yes we are completely inept team that can do nothing right aside from ok defense, this season is so weird and flukey, it wouldn’t totally shock me if we magically went on some run to finish 8-9 and make the wild card or something.

Here's the bad news. Every Rhule team had played it's best football in the first third of the season and gotten progressively worse over the course of the season. We're playing our best football right now, as sad as that may be.

The larger point is relying on other teams to be so shitty that we somehow back door our way into the playoffs at 8-9ish isnt a winning formula for building a franchise

      I'd hold on to Walker - we have no OT depth at all. Freeling is a block of clay - all the tools are there and he appears to have a great attitude. He needs serious work on his technique to realise his potential though.

      From my watch last night: They weren't trading out of 19 unless it was a daft offer once Freeling got there. They were clearly antsy to get Hunter - and Minnesota actually called to offer the trade down. They weren't trading out of the third round pick once Brazzell fell to it (and Canales would have been happy with him in the second round). They traded back a lot on Day 3 - even if Morgan 'Babe Ruth'd' it with Lee, Hecht and Wheatley; they clearly weren't the only guys they would have taken at those picks. I'm curious to know which player caused the reaction at the start of day 2 (Dan Morgan): "of course they'd pick him"

      Watching this confirms that this staff and front office is super high on Monroe Freeling. I wouldn't be surprised if he's gotta a real chance to win the starting LT job in camp. If he does, we can look to flip Rasheed Walker to a contender desperate for tackle help.   As for Ickey I still really like him and wanna extend him but based on how the staff was talking about Freeling it might be time for ickey to start taking some practice sets at guard if he wants to stay here as we are gonna have to have figure out a solution for the contracts of Lewis and Hunt.  My preferred scenario for the Oline in 2027 is Freeling-Ickey-Hech-Lewis-Moton.
