I expect Jay Tufele to play for us and expect us to fall off then on run Defense.
Not much positivity brought to this discussion Sled, and we need to win at least 2 of the next 3 games.

I'm gonna check these 34 base teams practice squads, somebody is bound to be hiding a decent one.
We need a NT with DJ going down for a bit. Tufele fits the description a bit but Linval Joseph has been a stud in the
league for a while and is the perfect pick up to help diffuse the loss of DJ for a bit.
I just hate having a border line roster player to depend on with the loss of a top tier NFL player at his roster spot.

As for the D, they have a lot of playmakers on the edge and in the backfield. This strength inside does become a weakness, don't get me wrong, but it's not like they'll be relying on a one-person fix.
Get better soon, DJ.
If the Offense in the playbook, playcalling, O-Line and chemistry get on track soon?
Yeah. But that is a big IF.
I am worried unless we see something decent from Tupou or another NT soon.

Who is Uzi?
Thought he was the TE on the dudes we just played?

Shelton, that would be cool too if he still has somethin'...

Eh, Mount Wren is more of a Suh that plays like Jane, no thanks.
