Our DT are not ready

some decent options out there......that have no interest in playing in the preseason. hopefully we can get one next week or so.

I hope you are right. I don't think it was the worse thing in the world to wait and see what the young guys at DT have, but the results have not been good by any stretch of the imagination.

I think it is ridiculous to say after 3 preseason games that McClain and Fua can't play, but they are obviously not ready to be starters at this point.

It's hard to spreculate exactly how much Ron Edwards would have helped, but it is beyond frustrating that the team has not fixed this problem over the past 3 years.

Even at DE, I think the team needs to be potentially add someone. I am comfortable starting Johnson and Hardy, but Norwood and Brown are basically the same guy (pass-rush only) and not equipped to be an every down type players. And unfortunately, neither one has shown enough so far as a pass rusher only. Charles Johnson is going to get double-teamed every down as bad as the rest of the line has been so far.

On the O-Line, there really isn't a good alternative on the right side if Schwartz and Otah can't go. It's hard to believe that one or both of them aren't going to miss significant time in the season. RG is a dumpster fire right now. Bernardeau and Duke Robinson are garbage.

I think another frustrating thing about this team is that we have some top end talent (CJ, Beason, TD, Otah, Gross, Kalil, Smitty), but then we have a major drop-off to some of the other guys.

I don't know if we overpaid so much for the guys we kept (I mean, at 2-14 you've got to give a guy incentive to sign), but depth is a big-time concern at every position outside of LB and TE.

Gettis getting hurt sucks- he could at least get open deep. LaFell, Naanee, and Armanti have not shown anything to make you believe they can be a legitimate #2.

I guess the longer I type, the more issues I realize this team has. I haven't ever mentioned QB b/c this is a learning year for Cam, but this team has a lot of issues.

Maybe not Detroit a few years ago issues, but certainly enough that 5-6 wins looks like the ceiling right now.

And I say this as a proud PSL owner who will be at every game

    • That’s not a bad idea at all. I was really liking the whole cali-style carne asada. We might do that next week instead of enchiladas for the rams. Was planning on: Saints-Gumbo Tampa-Cuban Sandwiches Seattle- Salmon Stew Tampa- Seafood Boil 
    • I agree, honestly you can not trade a player that has Balls talent. Just sitting in street clothes FOR years, it doesn't matter if you are averaging 50points on 88% with 18 rebs, 15 asst, 4 stls if you never can play. These are the worst type of players, teasers. Its HIS JOB to get his body in NBA shape and he has proven that he can not. Thus you break the rule about trading top shelf talent. Hell NBA need to have NFL contracts where the full sum isn't guaranteed, you bet your ass if his money was tied to his playing on the court he'd somehow figure out how to stay healthy.   Plus Im a old head, I member when Seth Curry in his 17(Jesus..) year career had ankle problems and guess what, he solved the issues and got all the money, championships, and fame. Ball doesn't have the same drive to figure out his body, he'd rather drive his car on kids feet while rushing home to drive his go-cart on the roof of his condo after missing his 42nd game of the season.....
