We got zero pressure on Bortles until the fourth quarter.

 

9 - Our first round picks from the past 3 years weren't really on the field - Thompson saw minimal action, but Star and Benjamin are down.

 

Thompson wasn't bad, the ball just didn't come his way very often. Rivera did lie about the exotic plans they had for him. We still play our nickel defense most of the time.

 

Yeah, Meat. With Kuechly out, why would we not play him, at least more than we did? As evidenced by the conversations here following both injuries, we all knew losing Starand Kelvin would limit what we do on both sides of the ball.

Again, Ginn MUST get himself together. After poor WR play yesterday, any chance we waive a practice squad guy (if that's necessary) and bring back a waived wide out, or look on the wire for another? Cot here is a solid possession guy, but with Funchess in absentsia and Ginn's hands of marble, we have no downfield threat.

 

Ginn dropped passes two years ago, but cutting him would be idiotic because he's the only WR keeping defenses from playing 9 in the box.

 

Stop bitching about the wrong things. Thompson didn't play more because he's not a middle linebacker. Plus Klein had a good game. What you should be bitching about is our fat GM ignoring the offensive line and Shula marginalizing Olsen.

I wasn't advocating cutting Ginn, just having him as a returner rather than the 1 or 2 receiver. If I inferred otherwise, I wasn't clear.

And I've laid off Gettleman for the most part, but you're dead on about the line.

 

I don't think either of our top picks know their playbook yet.

You guys watch, Gettleman will let Norman walk and we'll have someone like Cason starting next year. Along with another bargain basement OL. Fuck him.

 

Damn, I hope you're wrong.

 

He plays inside when we go with 5 DBs and his play was pretty good considering how much more he played
