It would appear Harris has to do something now or he starts to take some accountability for this mess. DO IT NOW!

We are getting little to nothing out of this years draft class....our management may not survive this kind of poor production. 7 picks and none have made an impact even a little bit. 

Yep and when they called Forbes name over Gonzales it took the cake. This management can't get out of their own way.  Idiots.

Its the curse of the Black Jerseys.

I don't think any new regime would just dump Howell. But there is a chance they prefer to get their own guy to build around.

Agree. I believe Howell will be the asset that brings a quality regime here.

He's been there 2 games and had an impact, I think they'll take that.

They have no choice but to like it after a $98 Million contract. I am glad we passed on that money.

But if you watched that TNF game, you have to admit Sweat was a menace.  He was all over the place.  He definitely had an impact pressuring the QB.  Making the QB uncomfortable wasn't something our DEs were doing yesterday.

Yes I agree he was all over the place however they are paying him to be more than what he has done. Elite DE's finish. Sweat is better but both are just above average IMO.

Thats not what the media are saying though. Lol

Excactly. They are still being hyped because they were first round picks. Chase made one good play yesterday but Bosa stole his thunder by causing the fumble on the same play. Bosa just has a nose for the ball. Dudes like Garrett, Watt and Bosa just are on another level than these two.

Not Dobson but he has been a let down. The other 4 are interchangeable. need a couple bigger or blazers.

I was just messing with you because their names are Samuel and Dotson. Not Samuels and Dobson.

Both have looked good but neither have looked elite or worth the big money(that Sweat already got and Young likely will get this off season).

Agreed, They have been overhyped for a long time. It was time to trim the fat.

Disagree, Terry will be here and not the problem. I can see Samuels over paid and not needed, Brown just another WR that we have on the team like the others and they do not return punts. Dobson has been the disappointment.  

Samuels and Dobson?

So far through 3 games (2 Sweat and 1 Young) they have combined for two tackes and 1/2 a sack. LOL

Just imagine if our running game was even close to being good too… not 1 100yd game this season… love Howell and his maturity and growth but dang man having a running attack and even a slight threat would be nice too

I think Robinson is the guy to be special as an early down back. He flashed his receiving chops today. However the issue with our team that has Ron's fingerprints all over it is roster building without any focus on the offensive line. In that respect he has been atrocious and the running game is inconsistent at best.

We always seem to allow some sort of record each week.

30-27 Coms win in OT. 

So what was the rationale for shutting it down? Good on all you folks that protested it BTW. 

My wife was wondering why I was talking to her more than normal the past few days. Thank god things are back to normal with this site. HAHA

Lets hope DK doesn't ragdoll him the way AJ Brown did/does. The strength discrepancy between AJ and Forbes was crazy. It was literally like a big adult brother playing with his kid brother. Fuller or Juice on DK would be wise.

He, Tana, and Garcon have been my favs in the new gen but Clark is always my number one....fun guy to drink with in the end zone bars too.  Still give props to Charley Taylor as the OG legend, have several of his cards too.

Garcon was a beast. Loved the fang mouth guard. Tough SOB. It was because of him that Shanny Jr. drafted Deebo. You need a guy like that in that offense.. Tana is a legend. Nice guy too from my expieience. He and DHall were the most approachable Skins of that generation.

It's getting ridiculous...flag football might be at Olympics by 2028 in LA...find out they testing what they can do to expand globally if folks don't want ptsd like current nfl is.

 

 

Soooo after seeing the tweet in its entirety, according to the NFL explanation if you dont emulate a Gator or a Crab you are penalized.  LOL this is **** ball.

Quality punt returner and excellent no.3, should have passed his way a little more. Need to re sign him this offseason.  think he has got some big plays coming. 

Agreed. He would be a very cheap alternative to Samuel. Zero risk signing.

ok ok I get you guys who were trying to warn us about Magic tweets now. Holy **** this is funny 

I think Magic likes beers.

Football is not sustainable if that's a penalty now...

That was nothing more than a bull **** call. That type of call should be reviewable. If they are going to throw all the chips in on QB protection, it has to be certified.

I don't know about you guys but seeing Crowder on this team again is awesome. He is always giving his all. He is a consummate professional who is having a career resurgence. 

If Howell is the guy we think he is we can actually enjoy games that we win for a change. Usually this time of year we get pissy about W's hurting draft position. We are not good enough to contend for anything but if Sam is the future and Dan is gone all in the same year. NUTS

Does anyone give any credit to EB for Howell?????  

He is getting better lately but EB was scheaming Howell for failure dialing up long plays when it was obvious the OLine needed shuffling. Hence the record setting sacks through 8 games. That being said their successes and failures are interlinked so he gets credit for the past few games for sure IMO.

Next step for Howell is changing plays at the line and knowing when to push no huddle when we have favorable personnel matchups. 

He has demonstrated growth from game to game. I think he will have that down fully by next year. Its not mentioned often but his durability is insane for someone that has been pummeled so often. I dont think I have ever seen him limp or shake anything off. He hasn't taken any monster hits besides the big hit in game one. He has all the physical gifts to be great so like you say it will be the mental aspect that elevates his game to new heights. The fact he is the son of a coach means something for his mental acumen prospects IMO. He is super young so there will be the stupid plays here and there. Super excited to see him do well. We have our guy. Its about time!

Theres "cool" as a player but man howell takes it to a whole nother level. Looks completely aloof out there. Just absolutely zero emotion in any direction. Not a fan of it. Smile a bit. Be angry a bit. Look like youre having fun at least.

He should wax his eyebrows too. Sheesh its almost a monobrow! Unacceptable.

Laron Landry can get Forbes all buffed out.

He better because I bet Forbes is waking up screaming every night having nightmares of A.J Brown tossing him around like a rag doll.
