Getting snagged by those metal braces ain't a fuging picnic either.

You mean getting DB back?

If you want honesty, A. Robinson and DB are the only guys that have appreciably worked out well for us on that DL. They also pre-dated Dan Morgan.

Now, admittedly I think where Evero plays some of these guys has an impact on dome of them struggling.

Morgan signed Robinson in March 2024.

Fully agree.  I tell my boss all the time.  My job isn't to make the best decision.  I will tell you what I think the best decision is but my job is to make the decision my boss decides on to work.  How do I make what he wants work even if I think there is a better option.

This is the most wins we've had since 2017.  In fact there have only been 10 seasons (out of 30) we've won 8 games or more in franchise history.  We're in the playoffs and won the division.  That also hasn't happened since 2017.  

The last 8 years of Rhule, Reich and looking under every rock for a QB left us at probably the worst point in franchise history.  I'm giving a ton of credit to the current brain trust.  I want to keep Morgan, Canales, and Tillis together for the foreseeable future.  

Fans expect too much, too fast because out of 32 teams you can see when a team gets lucky and hits a homerun with a FA or draft pick and expect that is the standard.  

  

 

Yes we won 8 games, but we didn't achieve 500 status. We didn't win our way into the playoffs. Atlanta had to do it for us. We are the only team in NFL history to get into the playoffs twice with a losing record. That's not something to be proud of IMO. If NO had started Shough instead of Rattler, we probably wouldn't be in at all. We have the 4th worst point differential of any team in playoff history. That's over 300 teams. If we're being honest, we don't deserve to be in the playoffs with the way we played this year. We just happened to be in the shittiest division in football. I'd be pissed if I was the Vikings and the Lions. Both have winning records and are sitting at home. If we were sitting at home with a 9-8 record while a "division winner" hosted a playoff game with a 8-9 record because their division was total ass, this board would lose its poo. 

I'd like to keep Tillis too and think we should do what we have to to keep him. I don't think it's a fluke that all of a sudden we improved in close scoring games and KC suddenly declined. I also don't think it's a fluke our draft improved and KCs declined overall. 

I don't know that fans expect too much. Other franchises are making significant visible changes in a single season and not from a single draft pick. You see teams make business decisions instead of emotional ones. I think our expectations are too low honestly. Our offense it putrid. We're in the bottom 1/3 in almost every category. DC is not a good OC. His in game decision making is awful. 

Successful franchises do good things over and over and we don't mimic them. We blaze our own Oregon Trail and wind up dead with dysentery more often than not. I hope it changes and I think if it does, Tillis will be a huge part of it. I think he's may deserve more credit than he's gotten to this point.
