Gentlemen!

This is a trying time. A time of full of desperate feelings. A time of bewilderment, shame, anger, and disappointment. We have watched as defeat has painfully and pitifully pulled the glory of victory from our paws not once, but twice. We have have seen the snare of death reach out and touch our men of battle, decimating our second line of defense. Our leader has fallen pray to poor protection, hindering our offensive production to near uselessness, which in turn has hindered our beliefs in our strategic minds. Ay, these are trying times indeed.

Alas, now we find ourselves at the crossroads; and as we ponder on the weeks past; the bewilderment, the shame, the anger, the disappointment, the despair... We find ourselves with a choice. Quit now and be defeated like spoiled child getting whipped; Or act like men and rise above the occasion. I for one am not ready to declare defeat. I am not ready forfeit victory. 

 

This is a 16 week war of attrition; a lengthy challenge of skill, discipline, heart, will, and commitment, and whilst' we have lost the first 2 battles, gentlemen, we can... no, we will rise again. I have, myself, full confidence that if all do their duty, if nothing is neglected, and if the game plans are made right, as they are now being made, we shall prove ourselves once again able to defend our home field, to ride out the storm of week 3, and to outlive the pain of 0-3, another near defeat, and more questions of our leadership.

 

Men and Women, get ready, this week the season really starts... and I'll be watching with great expectations. For the greatest of us all will lead us to victory.

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years, with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
