Anyone notice Jalen Coker yesterday?

I listened to the radio (Luke is an outstanding analyst) and didn’t hear much. Stat sheet didn’t show much. Maybe he executed his blocks  

Politician answer is they have like 5 options with the TE and RB being used so they can’t all be the star each week. Let’s hope he looked good enough on film to get some looks this week.

I really couldn't understand why people were chirping about keeping Corbett benched. He was a very good OG. It's him at center that was never very good.

Also, Cade Mays once again is a replacement level player. As fans, some of ya'll really need to stop overestimating these long term backup players. That's rarely an accident. Doesn't mean they aren't valuable but the idea that these guys are long term starting solutions is ludicrous.

I wouldnt go as far as to say hes replacement level, but hes fine at center.  he's not some godsend, but he isnt absolute dogshit like Corbett was at center. Frankly when you are building a roster you have to have guys who are just aight at certain positions, you cant afford pro bowlers at every position and hes a fine accordable piece that Id love to keep around for average pay. That said, I got some flack earlier in the week saying I was fine with Corbett starting at guard if theres line injuries, and sure enough there was, and sure enough he played fine.  Hes not elite, no where NEAR Lewis or Hunt, but he's alright.  Put it this way, Corbett at guard is not a guy you game plan for, but hes not bad, he'll do the job alright and you need those guys....just keep him away from the center spot...dude is trash at snapping the ball.

You know, a lot is going to be made of it, but let's also be honest, the Jets defense is a helluva lot better than their offense. That's actually a modestly okay defense we faced. The rest of the Jets, phew.

Their defense is legit. If they had a decent qb we lose that game.

Hell we lose that game if Jaycee horn doesnt save us

One of those INTs was a easy TD with a better throw, same for the one Wallace was allowed to catch up with...... NFL games are mostly 3-5 plays away for either winning or losing...

Jets beat last years Panthers too....

Cade didn't have his best game yesterday, but having to worry about Quinnen Williams being right in front of you will do that to most centers.

Cade has been very good with his run blocking and ok with his pass blocking. I think he is much better than a replacement level player. Guy would start for more teams than not

He would not start for literally almost any NFL teams. This is the same type of thing people kept saying about Brady Christensen getting a big contract this past offseason.

For some reason the Huddle always equates a solid backup player to a Pro Bowl NFL starter. I will never understand why this happens.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
