Sweat just got extended by the Bears

Yeah I figured they would. That's not a win now move.

That probably depends on what he does the rest of the season and (unless the 9ers slide continues) in playoffs. He's currently on pace for 12 sacks this year, but he'll probably see a lot of 1-1 blocking w/ the other 49ers DL. So the potential's there for him to have a big 2nd half. If this happens and he makes some plays in the playoffs then he's probably looking at a big payday.

But if he gets hurt and/or struggles for some reason then he's probably looking at a 1 year show me deal.

Colts Eyeing Former No. 4 Overall Pick After Striking Out at Trade Deadline

(By Vinny Somma)

I’m not sure how they will address this. Minshew needs to throw deep but refuses. NE will watch the Carolina game and figure they just have to play base defense to shut down the run. This will force Minshew to throw them out of base defense to give the run game a chance

Have they said what kind of knee injury Downs has?

For starters, the Colts should be 7-4 because they were flat-out robbed in their game against the Browns.

Secondly, the Colts are playing with a back-up quarterback who often overthrows open targets. The overall defense is pretty good, the running game is very good, the receivers are good, and the place-kicker is excellent ...... the 2nd-string quarterback is the one glaring weakness on this current Colts team.

On the first bold: We're not just 7-4 (fuck you, CLE) with a backup QB, either. Our secondary has been ravaged starting in June when Rodgers got busted, the other starter gets IR'ed, and now Brents has been out several weeks.

We also haven't had a healthy OL basically all season and they're doing very well anyway. What percentage of snaps has our entire starting OL played together this season? That'd be an interesting stat.

JT missed the first quarter of the season, Grover is out 6 games, Buckner has been limited, Franklin's missed time, Kwity has missed time... I'd say the depth has been tested.

On the second bold: It depends on the perspective you take. Minshew is definitely limited and not good enough to reach the excellence we want. That said, our backup QB has started and/or finished every single one of our 7 wins (fuck you, CLE).

So as a franchise QB... he's not what you want. As a backup... how much better could you expect?

I don't expect much more from Minshew ...... I was pointing out the fact that he's the one glaring weakness as things currently stand.

I know and I agree. It's the way I worded it. I meant the generic-you, not the C&O-you.
