I remember him giving a paycheck up to help some families in the Texans organization- I think they were the cleaning people, just a nice thing to do and then he turns out he is a total creep. I just don't know if it is something we can or should do. But if you put him on this team then it changes everything for the franchise.

Unless there is a major change within the Texans, I doubt they will trade him. They have this crazy price for him, even though they know no one is going to pay for it given the risk this investigation is posing.

Now, if the Packers were to budge and trade Rodgers, I'd take him in a heartbeat.

AR will never come here so that is totally out.

W/ Watson I feel as time goes on the Texans will budge simply because they can get some value for him and everyone will want to have closure. You can't have him showing up everyday, day after day and basically not play him. The awkwardness will wear thin on everyone.

We have so many idiots in our fanbase that some still think RG3 got a raw deal.

[skinsfan69]

the only reason RG3 was still in the league is cause the Ravens have a college offense and run their QB. He should send Jacksons a gift for extending his career a few more years.

After looking at schedule if TH fails we could possibly not win 4-5 games.. our schedule is brutal . I’m not optimistic

Unless this Defense is going to be the 2000 Ravens, I’m going to go out on a limb and say 9-8 is best case scenario….

Mark Bullock's twitter .. no individual play breakdown and film study, have to pay for that now. When he was w the Athletic theyd tease you with a few free film breakdowns.

Really want to find a breakdown of that 3rd and 16 the LAC converted.

That was as bad as AG's fumble.

No breakdown, but here is the play. Seems to me like... *drumroll* Bostic follows the TE in the flat way too much and leaves his zone (the central third of the field) wide open.
Also, McCain backpedals too much IMO. He may be in position to make the tackle short of the sticks if he stops at the sticks...
No pressure sure doesn't help either.

Take your educated guesses:

Looks like everyone was expecting someone else to do something, instead we end up with Allen sitting down in the middle of 5 guys, safeties look to be sitting way too deep but what do I know

[sdskinsfan2001]

^^^^^

The ole Bostic special. Literally running around doing nothing and covering no one.

The FO and Rivera failed this team at LB in the offseason. No way Bostic should even be on the field in that situation.

And also the safety dropping back to beyond the marker to make a nice easy hole for Allen. That's just piss-poor all around. Embarrassing.

Safeties (McCain and Collins) were waaay too deep, and Bostic didn't help matters as he seemed out of position. That was far too easy of a completion.

By the way, I listened to the post game show, of course from Sunday, yesterday. Fred Smoot basically stated what I was saying in the game thread during the game. He said we was beaten by the pen, meaning the chalkboard and x's and o's, versus just being physically out whipped. And, I agree.

Smoot thought JDR should have sent more blitzes between the A and B gaps to help nullify the Chargers and Herbert's quick passing, as many of the Chargers' plays were to negate our pass rush and take advantage of matchups and their playmakers. Once again, things I stated in the game thread as it was obvious what they were doing IMO.

They schemed us well for the most part, and Smoot, in so many terms, wasn't happy with JDR's game plan. Sunday's loss was more on coaching than anything else, and I think a handful of others on this forum practically said as much.

Lastly, Kam Curl only played 37 snaps whereas Landon Collins played 65. I hope that was a case where Curl may have been cramping as some players (ie, Fuller, Young, Sweat, and a couple others) tapped out a few plays due to early season conditioning or not being conditioned. With that being said, Curl needs more snaps.

Nice capture French - I agree with you, I think this one is on Bostic as he left the middle ground wide open.

That is on Del Rio for (1) having Bostic and Holcomb in there on a guaranteed passing play. We have a bunch of hybrid safety guys for this very play. (2) asking your piss poor in coverage LB to make a correct read and then be able to cover a huge area of turf against the likes of Keenan Allen.

That D call is mind blowing.

On top of everyone playing way to far back from the sticks.

Horrible play call, horrible execution by all.
