This, to me, is the most rational explanation. Go for the win, protect your QB.

Thank you for restoring this thread to its intended puepose - a football discussion. Let's keep the bickering to Myface. I was shocked to see how highly rated Onwenu is on PFF, he certainly has been underwhelming under the eyeball test. He has played better than in 2024, but he counts $25...

On the heels of Stephon's little strangulation incedent, I'm not sure bringing another Diggs into the fold is a good idea.

I was looking forward to an offseason without unending pleas to sign “insert name WR beast”. Guess it’s not happening.

He could be be the second most deserving guy. Might lead the Niners to the #1 seed with Mac Jones starting half the year. That deserves respect.

The last wild card QB to win MVP was Manning in 2008, and he had no real competition. Stafford’s volume numbers are a little better, but his case doesn’t seem strong enough to break precedent. Dropping two in a row while in the driver’s seat for the #1 seed has got to be a bad look.

Stafford’s place is secure. If he plays one more year he’ll retire 5th all time in yards and 6th in TDS, and he got his ring. The man is IN.

They looked like a 10-11 win team and a playoff pushover to me.

I think the RLKAG option is sophomoric and tired, but in this case, it is the only answer.

This is a very real culprit.

Wilson and Bradbury are the weak links right now. Could be fixed by signing a LG upgrade in FA, and moving Wilson back to his natural position. I’m also hoping for a good blocking TE, and for Lampe to be healthy and ready. Fix the run blocking, you might have a top 5 offense.

Every team is a different situation. Baltimore and KC got hit by train wreck seasons. They’ll be back. Detroit got drained by injuries and roster/coaching attrition. Cindy has mismanaged their cap and drafting. Dallas stared down its best player, lost, then panicked. It’s not Burrow’s or...

It is too early to tell. At best, Williams could have himself a David Givens 2003 offseason and emerge as a borderline WR1. At worst, he could be a slightly more productive Bethel Johnson, delivering a big play 3-4 times a year, but little else. I see him settling as a Bernard Berrian type...

I thought this was an 11 win team heading into the season. The schedule looked to me like we could win 12, but I dismissed that as homerism. The prospect of finishing 14-3 is absolutely mind bending.

Are these teams truly tanking? KC just lost got eliminated and lost Mahomes and Minshew. Were these intentionally sustained injuries as part of a tank? The Jets and Giants can’t win 4 games at full strength. Is it a tank if they “settle” for 3? Miami started the year like 2-7 or something...

Solid signing. I’m perfectly ok with Brown slotting into any IOL position in a pinch. Now to work on upgrading Onwenu and Bradbury.

I think the real culprit for declining passing numbers over the past couple of years has been a decline in offensive line talent. Going back to 2019, with the exception of 2021, offensive line draft classes have been littered with a disproportionate number of busts.

They could be, by virtue of a crop of weaker offenses in the AFC field this year. It depends on how seeding shakes out, whether there’s a wildcard upset, etc. I think Buffalo beats them handily. I’d call the Patriots and Texans a toss up. I’d expect them to take care of the Chargers...

The difference is that Diggs had been productive over the last two years before his ACL. Ayiuk hasn’t even found his way into the field, and there was talk of him already being in decline by the end of 2023. Both players carried risk, but Ayiuk seems to carry much more risk right now than Diggs...

You are absolutely right. Rivers was a high volume low efficiency player, whose teams outside of the late 00’s weren’t even able to sustain goodness for more than one year at a time.
