I am sorry, but if you are referring to the Jets game, the OL was not good. Silatolu was lost a lot. Kalil was not playing well either. Watch again and isolate on him. There is no way he was good. He may have had good plays, but he was far from good.

The Jet's were blitzing way too much for a fuging preseason game.

You could totally tell the difference in effort between teams. NY played dirty and were out for big hits, especially Cam.

Oh and we still fuging won LOL.

Right on my good man. I am guessing there will be some fines handed out to several Jets players.

Jordan Gross just threw Amini under the bus on the Drive. He said he's just a rookie and he's improving but has struggled a ton in being in the right spots.

Thought this quote was bump worthy.

Thoughts? Comments? He had a pretty rough game yesterday. Felt like Bernadeau was out there again.

Haha keep hating on him, you'll all look like idiots when he makes the pro bowl year after year.

To answer the question, yes a rookie from a D2 program is gonna struggle in his first NFL game against a great DT in McCoy.

LOL @ the Stephen Hill comment. If Brandon LaFell didn't impress you as a #2 receiver yesterday than GTFO and go root for The Golden Calf of Bristol and the Jets.

BWood and I had a pretty lengthy argument on draft night about him. I hated the pick and wanted Hill as well. But, I would've settled for another position of need b/c WR is pretty solid now. I'm pulling for him b/c we DID pick him and he's a Panther, but I haven't seen much positive out of him to this point.

Right on cue, lol.

But you have to expect there's going to be criticism until he shows out. He had a bad game yesterday, and it's no coincidence the line played like crap as a whole. Hangartner shouldn't get a pass either... I really don't think he's starter material but rather a quality backup.

He showed promise in the preseason. Yesterday both of the guards really struggled which was a huge part of the lack of running game. I will give it to Amini though, and I'm not making up excuses, but a healthy Gerald McCoy is as good as any DT in the NFL.

He's a rookie from a D2 school and I'm sure he's still trying to wrap his head around a professional play book. I'm confident he'll improve and then continue to earn respect around the league over the next couple of years like Ryan Kalil.

      Noah Fant? "Perfect fix?" More like imperfect fix.

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      I've liked him since his rookie year as a prospect, but when he's been asked to play in a large capacity, he has simply not done well.   He does not really add anything, rather muddies up the room.  Fant is TERRIBLE as a blocker, a pure receiving TE.   Let's just put Tremble aside since he's PUP (although I still like him as a TE2, but yeah he's not our future starter)... Sanders has already shown better receiving skills than a Fant and has a nice ceiling.  Not to mention, he's got in-line run blocking skills.  I really want to see what he's capable of this year.  Also has a year+ experience now in Canales' offense, not to mention legit chemistry with Bryce. And after Sanders, I also imagine our staff is waiting to see how Mitchell Evans looks in camp as he's got the in-line blocking skills.  If he looks fully capable of filling in behind Sanders, then I don't see a need.  Overall, keep an eye out on early August moves.  They are usually soft indicators of how staff's view their rookie late rounders and roster overall.  This is a wait and see what the market presents and how they think their unit looks in camp.

      Every team has different needs of the backup QB.   On some teams a young hopeful makes sense and on others an old worn out dude makes sense.  We are a little more in the in-between IMO where you probably would prefer a Fields, Pickett, Howell type IMO.   So a young disappoint that you there is still some hail mary hope in.....given BY essentially was benched both seasons for performance (I know that's not the official line going into Seattle but I think most would agree he got a break and should of been benched later that year).  I know we want Bryce to be the week 17 guy all season this upcoming year.  But it's still in the reasonable thought process that the other dude could show back up.

      I wouldn't mind it if they bring him in cheap for competition. I would imagine he would vie for the 3rd TE spot with the rookie.
