That's the sucky thing. There's a lot of guys on all 32 rosters who bust there asses and are loved by the coaches who just simply don't have the prerequisite talent to hack it in the NFL. Every coach at every level has guys they wish they could take the talent from this slacker and give it to this guy who busts his ass and just isn't nearly as naturally talented.

 

Are you talking about Brown or Hubbard? Or Thomas?

On paper, as of right now, this defense is fuging paper thin full of unknowns.    Good godalmighty we have zero depth on the defense

To be fair nothing has changed, talent wise, from the last pre-season game - we just don't have the actual bodies on the roster anymore.

Man, I just don't understand releasing Spencer Brown. He was the only RB who looked productive in preseason. 

I think many of the yards gained by S Brown were against sub par talent.  Preseason stats are not in and of themselves a way to fully evaluate talent.   Bumper Pool was in on a lot of tackles and I believe Coral was the most productive passer to put it in some context.

Who ever they bring in better be a fast learner or know the system in some way.

Same story every year...

New guys will learn the next few weeks as backups and special teamers. All Smith-Marsette needs to know right away is 1. run fast.  2. run straight.  3. don't drop the frikkin ball.

    • Ehlers needs to sit. Definitely can't lose him to a meaningless game.
    • Bet didn't hit because the referee missed 3 clear corner kicks. I had a 5k parlay that would have been alive tomorrow if he didn't miss those calls as well. Super annoying 
    • I don't think it's at all a given that we have players who are good at driving the basket. I guess that depends on your definition. Bridges is 43rd in attempts in the paint Miller is 64th and LaMelo is 66th. We all love to see the lob threat but it's largely miniscule at this point in time. There's gotta be a solution here if LaMelo is to be the centerpiece because this is simply not sustainable if we want to continue to ascend. If he can't drive to the basket then that means we need to add another player to the core who consistently can. That would require moving someone like Miles Bridges. And that's certainly not going to be popular with LaMelo but something has to give here for what we are investing and we need to maximize guys like Miller and Knueppel on rookie deals while we still can. The three chucking is fine when it's working where the issue comes into play is there are no adjustments when it isn't and we just go into a shell and begin to look like the Hornets of yesteryear. That's why the offensive evolution of all involved is critical to us taking the next step. Getting to the play in is nice but we should have our sights set much higher. Right now though they need to take care of business against the Heat. All I ask is that they at least beat those fools. I cannot stand the Heat.
