Re: What Was The Big Change Tomlin Promised For Saturday?

The only obvious change is Pickens having bad hands now and wearing a yellow Shiestly mask instead of a black one. Also Mike Williams made his acrobatic catch on the right side of the field instead of the left this time before coming out for the next two weeks to learn the playbook some more. A deci...

Re: Unleashing Hell in December

It could come down to how they practice, maybe they don't value rest and recovery as much as toughness and banging heads through the week. I don't know but it seems like they have had a lot of practice injuries. They definitely seem to break down late in the season.

Re: George Pickens

For me Ab was on par catch ability or better, not only electrifying but always came down with it. He had the same thing where you didn't think he caught it until it was replayed. Others like Swann and Santonio could also get it anywhere anytime and always. I always felt Hines was the total package t...

Re: Bungles vs Franco’s Less Immaculate Cousins Game Comments & Bewailing

Seattle will not play that single high safety with man coverage to give Pickens single coverage. Everyone will go back to doubling him and his frustration will go up again. This I agree with...I have said several times I am tempering expectations because Cincinnati's defense is such trash. But...wh...

Well we verified to the world Canada was at least a big part of the problem. Not passing to Muth last week was unforgivable.

Now we can figure out what part Pickett played in the ineptitude if any.

Re: Canada

His biggest fault is not running routes out of motion to cause the defense to adjust presnap like any other competant OC does. They can just sit in base. Second biggest is not running routes that cause defenders to make choices in real time on who to pick up. The receiver has to always win a contest...

Been involved in sports all my life. The body language between Matt Canada and Pickett sitting beside each other on the bench said it all.

I heard a stat today that said we are getting close to breaking the record for most consecutive games less than 400 yards. It’s at 30 something currently and will be an nfl Super Bowl era record previously held by a raider team. Still no change. Something that is also seldom mentioned is the poor li...

I feel like #32 is going to be JPJ, Branch or Trenton Simpson in that order of likelihood. If Joey P Isn’t taken you have to believe there is 100 percent an issue with him. There probably isn’t a player they are more familiar with, so if they pass I’m ok with it. Branch may be unlikely with addition...

I'm pretty down on claypool. He was jogging through the first five yards of his routes at the end. He doesn't care. I'll give najee the benefit because I think he may be hurt but Warren is glaringly better right now.

You have to get KP a chance. We have to know if we need to go QB again in the draft. He should play long enough to get the answer.
