Take those two guys off the roster and we are the worst team in the league. That's what's frustrating to me and I'm sure others. We have the legitimate chance to win a superbowl if we just try and add before the draft. We need to increase the pass rush or add to the oline. It's too late for the pass rush but it there is still time to add guards. But we are sitting on our hands and letting the chance for a superbowl slip away.

YES. A little louder for the crowd that says “but we got Ossai back and he and CTB, Hill, new D coach are all going to take a step forward. Like it’s a sure thing.


Has anyone thought it’s possible Chase had his best career year ever, or that he’s not statistically as good as he was last year? It’s possible our offense takes a step back because those things happen sometimes.

Invest in the D or this team will be mediocre again. new D coach isnt going to save the team if the player talent is mediocre... after all, the players are on the field 100% of the time. These players been playing since forever.. they dont really need much coaching anymore.. only minor "guidance"

We are one year away from the franchise’s (#9) trade request

They literally don’t have a single starting caliber guard currently on the roster, but sure, keep telling yourself it’s just the defense that needs help.

They literally did not have a single starting caliber guard last year and still managed to put up 27.8 points per game. So yes, it would be nice to have better guards, but with the offense scoring close to 30 points per game, the defense is the problem.

The top 9 pass blocking teams last season all made the playoffs, so I am with you on the guard situation. (that was per ESPNs first Take earlier this morning)

Equally so, the defense needs loads of help cause they were god awful in giving up first downs, tos, and touchdowns.

Both of ya are right because both can be an 'Achilles heal' of the team depending on the matchup.

Cool. Protect the franchise.
