  1. Hello Micah? Are you there? We could really use some pressure on the QB.
  2. Quite often, the play has open WRs, but Love has been missing them. Certainly can't handle the blitz well or pressure situations. Love has 13 TDs, Jacobs has 11 TDs... yet we complain that MLF runs the ball too much... Love is not the QB to just put the game on his shoulders...
  3. So when does Love get any criticism for this game? MLF being torched, but Love looks terrible out there too. Bad read, can't adjust for the blitz, loses his eyes in the blitz... Bad Love game.
  4. Lightning struck once with Rasul Douglas... I do see Corey Ballentine is still available. Seems like an easy button with our lack of depth.
  5. Nah... I think Sean West has a leg up on Smith!
  6. Man up or become a Viking's fan! 😛 The injuries going on right now is kind of crazy... We have 1 fully healthy WR (Doubs) right now. We lay an egg against Carolina, injuries mounting, and playing the Eagles on MNF... Looks like a clear win!
  7. He won't be a lockdown defender and does struggle against bigger players, but he is getting positive reviews on his D overall. The game I watched, he (and Rollins) were both getting dinged for every ticky-tack touch. Needs to gain some respect. And people shooting 49% from three don't make the minimum.
  8. When all it takes is to lose one player and the flood gates open... it means you need another player for depth. I'm not sure who would've helped (or if Asante would or not), but we don't really have anyone who is high performing either. Hobbs is looking like a washout. At best, Nixon and Valentine are low-mid starters. No harm in pushing them. Plus, depth is still pretty weak.
  9. Or he just gave in... No way to follow a manager that pulls pancakes out of his pants!
  10. Certainly hope William's middle finger will be ready to give it to the Dodgers next year! 😉
  11. And defer $38M over the next 20 years... I doubt it. Playoff income should help the coffers a little bit. I don't think we were exactly pushing the line last year either. Plus you have Rhyse coming off the books.
  12. Rotation? Companies often rotate VPs/Directors to get experience and develop them for a higher role later. Perhaps Rickie has his eye on being a GM and this was a development stop. Or maybe he just didn't want to coach? Maybe he has a personal situation where he can't travel all the time?
  13. A bit early for him in development, but I wonder what Savion Williams can do to fill in for Kraft? He can block better than Musgrave and if you go to a 10 package and the defense goes into dime, you can run out of it better. Statistically, Philly is winning beyond their numbers. Their defense is giving up about the same number of points as their yardage ranking, but their offense has scored far more than their yardage rankings would imply. Seems like they are getting a bit lucky?
  14. I don't see any updates on someone signing Asante Samuel Jr yet... or do you know something Google doesn't?
  15. Not to mention MM was never implicated in a scheme to pay defensive players to take out the opposing team's QB... Dude should've been banned.
  16. I thought about adding that, but got wrapped up in his offense numbers and forgot! He is no Bill Hall, but... 😂
  17. Both players have LH/RH splits, but they aren't equally good/bad vs the opposite handed pitching. Jake was 769/561 OPS vs RH/LHP. Vaughn was 661/859 vs RH/LHP. (including time with CHI-SOX) 2025 stats only for both Clearly Vaughn is going to get every start vs LHP. Going simply by numbers that gap might lead you to think he should be starting against every RHP, but that wasn't the case. He only had 52 starts last year (LF and DH included - too lazy to split out those numbers). 2026 was significantly better than previous years for Jake (career splits are 688 and 611 OPS vs RH/LHP), so maybe he gets more chances this year. But I tend to expect more of what we saw in Aug-Oct (avoiding Vaughn's crazy-hot streak in July)... which is Vaughn getting 60-70% (estimate) of the starts.
  18. Prepare to be disappointed. His LHP/RHP splits are way too wide for him to play every day. Plus with Vaughn on the team, a RH version of Bauers with better numbers, they are destined to split the starts 60/40 or 75/25 with Vaughn getting the lion share of starts.
  19. OBP is an area where Frelick could grow. Would be nice to see him improve his current 6-7% BB rate up to 10%. He potentially could be a 300 hitter also. He only hit 20 doubles last year... you don't need to hit HRs to improve your slugging. I don't see much more than an 800 OPS from him in any given season, but it is certainly possible.
  20. I think you'd have to assume that he follows his brother to 1B or at least DH at the end of the contract. If he remains healthy enough to stay at catcher, it is a bonus. Plenty of catchers have done it well into their 30s.
  21. I hope the QO (assuming the team knows his health situation very well) is a given for Woody. $20M for a SP of his caliber (even with health concerns) should be a no-brainer. 1 year mitigates the risk, too.
  22. Maybe "long term" was overstated... the Brewers put together the last deal to (theoretically) avoid arby this year. Perhaps they can cover the next two years and buy a year of FA (obviously no buyouts if you do that)? Or at least avoid arby this and next year.
  23. Rewind one year and people were complaining about Chad Patrick being added to the 40 man roster (though some of it was based on him over Shane Smith). Still, he was a player that many expected to be 7th or 8th on the SP list and ended up making a major MLB impact. I wouldn't expect that of Crow quite this year (less AAA experience), but their profiles aren't that dissimilar as SPs (i.e. more pitchability than pure stuff)
  24. Then it shouldn't be a first down if the 15 yards moves you back behind the first down marker.... You should only get one or the other.
  25. Maybe declining the option will spur talks for a long-term deal instead?
