Sherrod Martin

I would just like to point out that according to early reports, Sherrod Martin was benched in favor of Nakwho becuase of tackleing issues.

Martin lead the team in solo tackles Pass defenses and was tied with Luke for tackles. But hey the coaching staff cant be wrong can they?

Now was it that the secondary is better with martin or is it the the Eagles passing game sucks or a combo of both. But I have said it all damn year bench Nakwho and play Martin. Hes better in coverage and I have seen no issues with tackleing this season.

What does my fellow huddlers say?

One of many questionable personnel calls in my opinion. It was obvious after ATL that Martin should be the starter.

Also think Adams needs to cover KR and PR. Time to move on from early mistakes.

Also think Gettis should be on the field. Biggest, fastest WR that's not activated because of something personal with the coaching staff. As much as guys disliked Terrell Owens, he started every week. Ego can kill you some times. Or at least get you fired.

The only glaring mistake I saw from him was on the long TD run where he took a bad angle, but other than that I thought he was very solid.

what I kept hearing from RR concerning martin was-

he wasn't hitting his landmarks (out of position) and he was taking bad angles.

to the folks that want him in the game more........

until that changes in practice, he won't get much PT baby.

    • WR: Nico, Woods, Tank (R) TE: Schultz OL: Tunsil/Howard/Deiter/Mason/Fant vs. WR: Chark, Thielen, Mingo (R) TE: Hurst OL: Icky/Zavala (R)/Bozeman/Jensen (R)/Moton   Panthers' had the better OL before losing BC week 1 and AC week 4 which is kind of ironic considering how in the following year DB went down in W1 and Shaq in W4 resulting in the defense going all to Hell. CJ has done amazing in Houston, but he also wasn't asked to carry Zavala, Jensen, Mingo, Hurst, and Chark as a rookie.
    • Past 5 seasons, IMO CJ Stroud and Joe Burrow are the 2 best young QBs that have emerged in the league in that window.  They also didn’t need vets to be their primary pass catchers.  They helped fellow youngsters be great at WR.   almost all the other young QBs have been paired up with vets in their top options….and haven’t been as promising.  so it isn’t Madden.  But the league hasn’t played out as you suggest it does.   Good QBs make others around them better.   
    • In 2023 their roster wasn’t stacked. They nailed the poo out of the 2023 draft and since they knew Davis Mills wasn’t the guy, they tanked properly to get pick 2. They also took Cleveland’s ridiculous offer for Watson unlike us with Burns. Houston received enough draft capital to jump up to 3 while picking up the right guys in Anderson and Stroud. The Texans were not stacked or better than us in 2023. They had 11 total wins from 2020 to 2022. They didn’t have a terrible front office so they made sure they got their QB of the future while tanking well and getting more draft picks. They are a textbook study of what we should have done in 2022/2023 offseason even though people in here still think tanking is a bad word and our culture would be bad if we were the Texans. We literally had the chance to be the Texans right now and fuged it up.
