My Take

[Lov2fish]

Starters, don't get to worked up. It was the Raiders, who are just as dysfunctional as we are/were.

Saturday done a pretty good job, and the kid called a good game. Both of them are really the rallying point this team needed. Jeff didn't sale these players a bunch of BS, he was 100% straight with them as men. They responded for him

Offensive line was good today. Not great, but damn what a game after watching them matador their way through the season up to this point. Sustainable? Who knows but today was definitely a fresh of breath air.

Matt Ryan: Dude can still play when allowed the time to go through progressions. The sack that costed us field position was inexcusable for a veteran, but I imagine he was feeling a little frisky and trying extra hard. I still draft a QB if one falls to us, or we move up.

Still have to get our Tight ends involved. Completely ignoring them is not going to bold well moving forward. Get Pierce more involved. The kid can play.

Campbell is playing his way to another contract. He is getting better as the season goes on and I am questioning the pick less and less.

Moore flashed some old Moore today, but still would ditch him after the season. Would also still ditch Facyson sooner than later. He is just lost in coverage most plays.

Rogers is a football player. Get that man on the field more.

Pass rush is still mind boggling bad. Paye goes down and what little we had completely disappeared. We need more blitzes in certain situations.

Special teams were not very good today, but they are usually adequate. Hope this is not a trend.

Now onto the Eggles for a beatdown to bring us all back down to earth.

Another positive for me today was getting blocked by Mike Wells on Twitter. That dude is a fucking huge douche! Does not like being called out for bullshit speculation.

ballard is a build the lines guy



the oline sucks and there is still, after many tries, no pass rush.


dayo is terrible and ngakoue is worse than terrible

ballard has failed

This is pretty much the case. The run D is pretty solid but struggles without Paye. Every other DE is pretty bad. He let Autry go. He let Glowinski go which made no sense.

Ballard needs someone else to rank his DEs, because he puts WAY too much emphasis on traits. He's really good at identifying IDL talent, and OL talent, he just can't stop himself from falling in love with the traited up DEs with zero production.

Really, he's down Lewis and the Paye goes down, wtf do you expect? How about the play of Raimann?

I kinda think that he did his job.

So this is what the most egregious thing the NFL has ever done looks like. Irsay is a wingnut. I love it. Keep it real Jim, fuck those prognosticators. I'm enjoying this ride you got us on.

Yeah well, it’s likely the Colts would have won the Washington game if Jim hadn’t stuck his nose in and forced Sam as the starter, so if I were him, I wouldn’t be crowing to much.

Lewis had a whopping 1 sack in 7 games this year. Yeah, Paye's good, but with the draft capitol Ballard has spent on DE he should have more than 1 good player to show for it.
