Back to the running game.. doesn't that speak volumes about Mike McCarthy makeup though.. he is a QB coach, do you really expect him to be patient with the run?

Your last sentence is why I think that we need a bonafide offensive coordinator that calls the plays.
McCarthys playcalling is suspect as he appears to get locked in to playing to the QB and damn the balanced attack.

it sure won massive praise last season. When you have weapons like Greg and Donald and Aaron and average runners like Ryan Grant... I have no problem opening it up.

I have no problem with throwing the ball either, but you also have to run the ball and control the clock.
You can't expect to line up in the shotgun so much that the opponent can just tee off on the QB.

Want a name that may be interesting after the season.. Wade Phillips.

Straight shooter.. very sound DC.. and I think he will be looking for work come Feb.

He is a 3-4 coach.. which is a little different roster wise and has natural liabilities within the scheme.. but we have to retool the roster at this point anyway..

I don't think there is anyway Wade survives the offseason...

He would bring a good measure of experience and seems like a natural fit in terms of blending into this coaching staff.

There.. completely off topic.

we need jim bates back. he knew how to maximize the talent on the roster. our defense was SCRUBTASTIC his last year and bates made them play to their maximum potential (turning a least talented D in the league to an above average one).

Bates is available right now, isn't he?

Bates would have to agree to come back here.. he felt wronged by the decision of not getting the head job, which he had a right to do.. Bates had shown the ability in Miami and made salad out of a few blades of grass and a dandelion or two on defense here.

I don't think Bates would come back.. My opinion.

Now don't get to thinking I think Bates should have been our coach.. not saying that, but via his eyes he had a chance to stay and decided it didn't feel right.

also remember that this is Bates scheme we are currently running... just under the direction of Sanders. Bates would surely know how to deal with it better as its his scheme, but I think if we are going to make a move we need to make it a sweeping change and bring in fresh ideas. IMO.

Martha Careful (2h) : RIP Junior Bridgeman. An excellent businessman and NBA er

Zero2Cool (4h) : It's better to have $17m to use on players who will be on the field. That's why trade/release is talked

Zero2Cool (4h) : post june is $7m cap hit with $17m saving

Zero2Cool (4h) : oops meant $10m cap hit

Zero2Cool (4h) : And pre june is $10m savings

Zero2Cool (4h) : Can't make him play.

dhazer (4h) : I am curious why the big need to release Jaire, we have 29 million cap space we arent spending and would only gain $6 million/ make him play

Zero2Cool (5h) : Joey Bosa signed with Bills?

dfosterf (5h) : What they are offering is a left over case of Leinies from the Chippewa Falls plant

Zero2Cool (5h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 gets you Jaire and our 3rd

Zero2Cool (5h) : they give us those five, or even first four, they can have Jaire.

Zero2Cool (5h) : 27, 59, 91, 129 and 136 are only ones worth having of theirs.

dfosterf (5h) : What they don't have is cap space, at least presently at 5.6 mil

dfosterf (5h) : Poor bastards only have 11

Zero2Cool (6h) : Ravens ain't got crap for picks.

dfosterf (6h) : Hobbs 2025 cap hit just under 6 million. Banks 2025 cap hit just over 9 million

dfosterf (15h) : Good luck to him.

Zero2Cool (17h) : Eric Stokes signs with Raiders

Martha Careful (18h) : Tyler Linderbaum C

Mucky Tundra (18h) : Cap space?

Zero2Cool (18h) : Do Ravens have anything we'd even entertain to have?

Mucky Tundra (20h) : I've seen trade ideas of Jaire going to the Ravens all offseason

beast (21h) : A probably false rumor is suggesting CB Jaire Alexander is being traded to the Ravens, again probably false

beast (21h) : Commanders might have a dominant offense the next 3 years at least

Zero2Cool (23h) : San Francisco 49ers announced they have released DL Leonard Floyd.

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Er getting traded twice like that

Mucky Tundra (11-Mar) : Huh, LT Laremy Tunsil traded from Houston to Washington. Never heard of a top OT getting traded in his career like that

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Minnesota Vikings cornerback Byron Murphy Jr. is returning on a three-year, $66 million deal

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : Damn

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : Saints are re-signing DE Chase Young to a three-year, $51 million deal worth up to $57 million.

Martha Careful (11-Mar) : 49ers releasing FB Juszcyk any interest?

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : digits of four

Zero2Cool (11-Mar) : four digits

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Eh, don't think so. better to split

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : on new site, would Fan Shout and GameDay Chat show same messages?

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : The Hall of Fame stuff probably came from a scout as Zero said; at this point though it's hard to see them moving ZT from RT

Mucky Tundra (10-Mar) : Regarding ZT at C, Gute had said he felt C was ZTs best position after he was drafted.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : LB Oren Burks to sign a 2-year, $5M deal with the Bengals.

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : Based on how it was worded at the time, probably scout.

beast (10-Mar) : I don't think the media person ever told the public the source, but Gute or LaFleur did say they thought Tom has earned his spot at OT

beast (10-Mar) : I think it was supposedly unnamed Packers source

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Was that Gute or Lefleur or someone else?

buckeyepackfan (10-Mar) : Zach Tom could be a really good guard, an all pro tackle, but probably be a HOF Center. Who said that?

Zero2Cool (10-Mar) : It's March 10th. I don't think anything is done.

Martha Careful (10-Mar) : if we think CB is done, we have a poor roster
