ALPHA

His FF in the Super Bowl led to Pittas touchdown, one of the many momentum swings that we would have lost the game without. That one play alone made him worth the pick.

From memory he blew out his knee in high school, missed a few games in BYU with shoulder and ankle injuries, then he missed OTAs and minicamp with back problems, now he's got a broken ankle. Interestingly the Falcons moved him to DT.

And both are proving to be talented pass rushers. There are three edge rushers drafted in the first three rounds without at least one sack, and we drafted two of them. Ok so maybe it's not Kaufusi's fault that he's injury prone, but we knew that and drafted him anyway so thats on us.

Tucker is our offense

I know our division is bad but I'm still surprised we win games with such an awful offense.

Best run of the game

I would rather him pushing our players around than putting them on stretchers.

Just imagine if he was durable

Cant believe some people are still assigning majority blame to the defense

not enough speed

I wouldnt want Pryor here, he's always been selfish and a few days ago he took a shot as his oline.

The next FA class for OL is not good and Yanda will be 33, we need an immediate impact from the draft.

He barely showed any emotion when he put the team on his back and marched us to our second Super Bowl title.

Maybe last year we didnt, but we have Pierce now and hes obviously the next man up in the middle if Williams walks.

I have no problem with what Ray initially said, they just have different personalities. Joe has been successful with his Joe Cool persona so you cant really blame that, I think hes just better at accomodating more personality types than he is at inspiring his teammates.

People said the same thing about Ngata but it turns out we made the right choice by moving him when we did, we had a strong run D before and after Ngata and the same will be true of Williams.

He didnt have to apologize for his opinions but I guess he felt it was too harsh. He was right though about energy, Flaccos cool demeanor might be able to accomodate more personalities but when things get serious and theyre seeking leadership what they really want is someone to lift their energy, only SS is doing that. I prefer Rays style of leadership any day of the week, theres something to be said for being genuine with your stream of consciousness and not being PC all the time.

Rebuild the trenches, oline and pass rushers

Look what a rookie is doing with an oline and weapons, what does Joe have... a guard and a 37yo receiver?

more hits like that

Zeke vs Elam should be interesting

True. I got sucked into the hype even though all he gets are coverage sacks.

West would rumble for 2000 yards behind that oline

Or more talent

I can't speak on anyone else I just like bouncing ideas around and yes some of them are going to be longshots or unpopular but we're not all going to agree on everything, I got roasted for saying Conklin and Whitehair were the best linemen in the draft (and they are). Anyways no harm, no foul, you're still one of my favorite posters.
