Ikey is highly unlikely to play, that seemed fairly obvious after the surgery.

If either of the guards misses the game, we are likely royally fuged.

I can tell you that for all the bitching about Ikey's pass protection, we are gonna see some wild poo if Niman suits up. That kid is fuging awful.

WTF is their problem with BC if they are considering playing Niman over him? Other than BC playing elsewhere and even then why? If Moton is healthy than BC should be first up as backup at LT.

Yeah, I don't get it either unless they are afraid of another of their lineman being less than 100% and needing BC to fill in at another position on the line. But I would trust Zavala or Mays filling in there and keeping BC at LT over having Yosh step on the field

It's so funny that our perceived areas of strength heading into the season (OL/WR) are limping into week one.

Trade AT

Cut Renfrow

Coker to IR for 4 weeks

Re-sign Renfrow

3/5 OL battling injuries

Thank goodness the early part of the schedule is opportunistic for us. 

my favorite is Renfrow isn't healthy enough to even be on the active roster over David Moore to.......Renfrow is obviously our starting slot WR.   

Panthers panthering

I can't tell if some of our fans were born frail or if they committed a lifetime of effort into being so with the way I'm seeing some respond to the injury report.

The issue is that our only strong unit is banged up and basically has been most of the training camp. It's not super unusual for big guys but when you are already arguably worst roster in the NFL, these kind of things can matter a lot.

We definitely can't afford being minus even two starting OL with the razor thin margins we are likely operating with.

I am not sure what the deal is there. BC is obviously a substantial step down from Ikey but Niman is straight off a cliff. I don't get it. 

Curious to see if we decide to start him AND if they realize their mistake and out BC in.

I guess it comes down to who can play multiple positions on the Oline and who cannot. Nijman can only play T and he sucks at that. Brady can do it all but if he starts at LT the G position is left too thin I guess. That's all I've got.

    • For starters, and again I am not sure what his capacity is in the media or how connected he is to the team, but I posted above Al Wallace says he is "absolutely" getting 50+ a year and he deserves it.  I obviously strongly disagree with it but it feels like like season when the team is slow leaking info to gauge the temp.   Secondly nobody on Gods green earth is going to sign an extension making less than he is making now.  Thats just crazy talk.  
    • No. Physical tools alone aren't enough. There are plenty of examples of draft busts to support that. Aost all of them had the physical tools and that wasn't enough. But Bryce is a perfect example of the opposite. Absolutely elite intangibles aren't enough either. If you simply don't have the physical abilities all the football intelligence and work ethic in the world won't be enough to overcome it. Just look to the sidelines every Sunday. We call those people "coaches".
    • As much as I despise Billy B, his philosophy on QBs is how I would approach things if I were a GM. You always keep looking for your next starter.  He has Bledsoe, who got injured and his backup ended up being the GOAT. Even while he had that going, he kept getting his next guy and developing them. When Brady got hurt, Cassel stepped in and went 11-5 and they missed the wild card by dumb luck. Who knows how far they would have gone if they had gotten in. Jimmy Gs career started in NE. There were others, but he always kept looking.  You can't be afraid to keep looking for your next starter, but it looks like we're afraid to look for more than a marginal one. If you're going to offer a $25m contract with incentives, that screams marginal QB. It also screams you're just a transition until we find our guy. After a 10 or 11 win season, he's not accepting that offer. And then you're in a Daniel Jones situation. Do you pay for a year of success and pray it wasn't a one year wonder?  To this point, Bryce has really produced nothing, yet for whatever reason, our FO has not even sniffed at the idea that we need a real QB room with real QBs. Dalton was never starter potential, Plummer was a joke. KP certainly isn't, neither is Grier.  Our approach to the QB room needs to be one of strength not fear. Bring in guys who can compete or who you think can compete. This is THE elite position, in an elite sport, paid premium salary, where production matters. Either you produce or you can lose your job. It's not mean, it's just the reality of the position.  And I'm really just tired of our candy ass approach to it.
