We have to beat teams like this soundly for any hope of staying w/ Detroit in the division. Detroit is a legit team and it really stings to say that!


Actually. we only have to beat teams like this to keep "any hope of staying w/ Detroit in the division."


Fair point. Even an ugly win is a win. Just hope we gain momentum going into the playoffs.

And to have any hope of beating Detroit if lesser head-to-head tiebreakers factor in, we have to beat teams like this soundly.

We’re an 8-2 team wrapped in a 5-5 body.

The positive is we have a pretty young nucleus. We need to shore up CB and IOL and DLine but future is bright.


So shore up about half the starters.

Not quite 11.

About 6.


2 x G
1 x C
3 x CB
1 X S (Metellus is a holdover)
2 x DL

9, and that includes FAs at CB.

I would stick with Metullus, Bynum and Blackmon and Brandel. Sticking with 6.

Jury still out on Blackmon 6.5

Really hoping McGlothern was going to be a diamond in the rough. But, he can't even make it off inactive list with our stiffs at CB. He was a UDFA for a reason.

Brandel can go. He isn't much of an upgrade over what we've seen from the position beffore.

With our loss to the Rams w/Detroit beating them and Detroit being up 100 points scored on us we’re going to have to finish ahead of them.

Weird that we are one of the top defenses against the run with Phillips and not much else (supposedly).
