    If Josh decides to have the process here in 24, would you be for or against?

    This isn't something that is as feasible in the NFL because of the differences in salary cap and signing bonuses.

     

    And then as part of that, taking back bad contracts isn't as easy.  A lot of part of a process in the NBA is taking back bad contracts and getting additional assets.

     

    Let's consider trading McLaurin.  There are two problems, first his signing bonus affects our cap.  Starting next season even per a year, he makes a good bit of money so that then also affects the other teams cap.  In the NBA, you'd balance that out by taking back a bad contract and get even more in the trade by doing so.  But anybody they have making much money also probably had a signing bonus and so as soon as the other team trades that player that affects their cap.

     

    Often the big trades (e.g. Tyreek Hill) are still on rookie contracts so are cheap.  The Mcafferey trade got the Panthers a 2nd, 3rd and 2 4th round picks.  But that makes it not the same as a process in the NBA where a good part of the objective is to get picks that can turn into high picks to get elite players.

     

    The Sixers process started with trading Jrue Holiday.  Who was that lower level All Star player.  That got the Sixers the 6th pick over all in that draft and a top 5 protected future first round pick.  A similar player doesn't get a similar haul in the NFL because differences in the salary cap and how signing bonuses are counted.

    End thread.

    In no world is it OK to run the ball 6 times in a game and zero times in a half.

    There has to be some attempt to keep a D honest.

     

    Our playcalling is actively magnifying our biggest issues on O and setting negative records in accordance to sacks. EB does not know that tho, so it’s not a problem.

    You usually are not down 24 points at halftime in nfl games. Are you being serious? You have to score as quickly and efficiently as possible. Running the ball does nothing.

    LOL you find fault with him?? WTF were you watching? He was the ONLY consistent     

    He was 6/9 for like 36 yards and a pick while the team was getting wrecked in the first half. He missed an easy TD to Brown. 
     

    That’s a problem. 
     

    The defense was the Main issue obviously but they were down 24-3 at half. Meaning the offense only managed 3 points against the worst passing defense in the league.

    Skins fans are the lonely person that wants to marry anybody after 1 or 2 dates. No rational thinking. Just emotion and vibes. Their person is perfect and beautiful and must be shielded from the evils of the world. 
     

    I just cannot believe we still do this with players after all these years. Let them earn it first. 
     

    Sam was not a mains issue tonight but he didn’t do **** in the first half except throw a pick and miss an easy wide open TD. That **** matters and it’s ok to hold him to higher than dirt standard.

    Building a defense first team is fools gold. They completely regressed from last season like the analytics say usually happen. It was a terrible way to build a team. At this point, that side of the ball needs to be blown to hell. 
     

    The secondary needs difference makers. Kam Curl is only a good player to Commanders fans. Otherwise, he’s a decent safety. Zero playmaking ability. BSJ stinks. Idc about his cute celebration dance. The entire front 7 can **** off. I’m tired of all of them.

    The Game Prediction Thread - Week 5 - The Commanders vs. Da Bears

    This is a pretty big game. It’s a pretty good chance to establish yourself as an upper middle class team in the NFL capable of a 10-11 win season. Teams like that should beat teams like the Bears. 
     

    However, these type of “growth” games usually don’t go well around these parts. I really hope they try to come out and crush Chicago early. That team will likely quit if they’re down multiple scores early. Unfortunately, I don’t think that kind of “attack success” mentality is something that a Ron Rivera coached team has. They’ll let them hang and it’ll be decided late as usual. A win is a win of course but again, a statement 24-10 style win would be really really big.
