I will say 1 player I was originally against just because I don't really like the type is Louis Nix but I started watching some of his games and he started to grow on me. He's your typical 2 gap nose tackle type but he stood out to me because it seemed like he was spending a lot of his plays in the opponents back field. He's not going to be the guy who brings down the QB but he'll sure make it hard for him to step up. Just a thought of someone they might go with since I'd rather not re-sign Raji even if he has a good year (don't trust him to perform after a payday).

One thing I do like about him vs Raji is he acutally has some good pass rush moves where if Raji doesn't win with his initial burst off the snap he just stands there hand fighting.

I am a fan of of taking an ILB. It fills a need at ILB and it improves the DL.

At ILB I don't see that happening. Mosely MAYBE. Shazier may prove he can be that good but moving a guy inside is risky. I guess when I look at the top LB groups in the league I don't see anybody in this draft that has that kind of talent to say we are catching up with them.

Getting BETTER maybe but not approaching the talent level of the 49'rs or Seattle.

Just because of this thread I went back to film of Mosley and Shazier.

After careful analysis I hope Darqueze Dennard falls to #21 [grin1]

Mucky Tundra (7h) : That might be it for the Vikings

Mucky Tundra (7h) : Oh so the refs do know what intentional grounding is

Mucky Tundra (7h) : what the hell was that Goff?! Not much pressure and he just air mails it to Harrison

Mucky Tundra (8h) : They really need to to get rid of the auto first down for illegal contact

Martha Careful (8h) : watching the Vikings and Lions it's understandable why they swept the Packers. So much better product

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Even when GB got pressure he was throwing darts; vs no pressure on that last pass he just air mails an open guy

Zero2Cool (8h) : didn't have guys in his face ... pressure makes difference

Mucky Tundra (8h) : Where was this Darnold vs GB?

Mucky Tundra (8h) : BALL DON'T LIE

Mucky Tundra (8h) : how was that not a safety? Goff throws it at an offensive lineman

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Zero, I thought that was a given! ;)

Mucky Tundra (9h) : Zero I looked through earlier and noticed the same thing. Bonkers year. I just wonder if beast put any money on games

Zero2Cool (9h) : I'm hoping for BLOODBATH. Pummel one another.

Zero2Cool (9h) : 8 people in pick'em would have won any year with their total lol

Mucky Tundra (9h) : I'm rooting for the Lions to lose.

Mucky Tundra (9h) : God help me but I'm rooting for the Vikings to...Vikings to...Christ I can't say it

Zero2Cool (10h) : 4 td for Rodgers

Zero2Cool (10h) : Chiefs got shutout

Zero2Cool (11h) : Rodgers passes for 3rd TD. might be last game of an amazing career

Mucky Tundra (11h) : "The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry."

Zero2Cool (12h) : Owner ... love it

Zero2Cool (12h) : Mayo was the guy they groomed for HC and one of the reasons they let Bill go.

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Pats have the #4 pick, lots of cap space and Maye at QB; should fetch some attention

Mucky Tundra (12h) : Well that didn't take long; Jerod Mayo out as Patriots HC

Zero2Cool (13h) : I would expect it to be higher in favor of Eagles

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Thst line seems...generous

Zero2Cool (13h) : Eagles -3.5 over Packers in Wildcard Round

Mucky Tundra (13h) : Did it though? Pokes beat the Commanders on the road with Cooper Rush previously

Zero2Cool (20h) : That gives them their best chance

Mucky Tundra (5-Jan) : Cowboys starting Trey Lance at QB vs Commanders; GB vs Philly in the Wild Card incoming!

Mucky Tundra (4-Jan) : Stinks for Lloyd. Hoping he comes back strong for next year

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Packers placed Marshawn Lloyd on reserve non-football illness list

Zero2Cool (3-Jan) : Luke Getsy been helping Packers defense. He's former OC Bears/Raiders and our old QB coach

beast (2-Jan) : Thanks dfosterf, I'm still kicking myself for last week, as I forgot to change to pick Vikings and Lions... after putting in a holding spot.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : First alternate: Elgton Jenkins Other alternates: Jordan Love, Kenny Clark, Keisean Nixon, Tucker Kraft, Josh Myers, Jaire Alexander

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Pro Bowl still a thing? Guess Packers have three. Jacobs, Gary, McKinney.

dfosterf (2-Jan) : It's a mine field with all the players sitting, etc

dfosterf (2-Jan) : There was quite a bit of "chalk" matchups this year it seemed, but not this week coming up

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : Or we got better and by we I mean everyone except me

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : We have about six that by percent would have won nearly any season. I guess 2024 was predictable 🤷

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You can check previous seasons. I quick did it and don't think anyone hit 70% before

dfosterf (2-Jan) : Hats off to the Beast

dfosterf (2-Jan) : I'm at 71.76% in pick 'em. 2nd place. Beast is at a flat 75% 9 games ahead. That 75% has got to be unprecedented this late in the season

beast (2-Jan) : I don't care deeply, just want some good entertaining games

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : BTW, not serious.

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : You don't care about it either!!!!

Zero2Cool (2-Jan) : NIL and Portal killed college, no one cares about it.

Mucky Tundra (2-Jan) : outside of Texas-Arizona St, it's been a snoozefest

beast (2-Jan) : I expect Georgia will change that tomorrow, but we'll have to wait and see. If they do, then only Big 10 and SEC are left.
