Team needs to learn how to play well with a key player being out. No more excuses. Remember when we couldn't win when Sean Lee was out?
MM needs to earn his money by showing what he can do in this type of situation.
I believe this will be our finest hour!

They Dak-stans didn’t afford Andy Dalton these excuses, but Andy was one drop by CeeDee Lamb away from the playoffs.. and Dak still has Smith and Collins in the line-up


Again I dont see anyone making an excuse most here are saying they as a coaching staff and team need to change this "we lost an OL so we are in trouble narrative" What would this excuse look like please give me an example....

You the funny this is, this team basically benched Zach Martin when they thought the season was over. But my man Andy Dalton, after the bye, almost took this team to the promised land after they adjusted the offense to get the ball out to the third quickest QB in terms of release the league. But again unlike Dak and his performance against third string corner scrubs against the Eagles, Dalton almost won if not for CeeDee Lamb choking a wide open pass.

Andy Dalton won without Zach and didn’t have Collins nor Smith..

The coaching staff can more than execute. It’s whether the 160 million QB can…

Well one person on this thread said we might as well sit Dak, because we can’t afford an injury to the QB in a game we can’t win..

I don’t think it’s just Martin being out per say.

It’s our history of not being to adapt and overcome these situations. Will they bring in a extra blocker? How will Moore try to help out Dak? Etc

Let me preface this by saying I'm not a Garrett guy. Never was.
But when I raise these same concerns you mention here my opinions are met with Moore and McCarthy reassurances that I find far from trust worthy based on just the short history of their coaching tenures here that I've observed.

Neither inspires confidence with me anyway.

Is this person a "Dakstan"? because as Ive pointed out the majority of the post are about the fact we need to wash the JG "we have an injury so we will lose" crap off this team....you lost 1 ol other teams manage this all the time MM and company better show thier big football brains and win anyway...

So basically I gave you the proof that you asked for and you go on another irrelevant rant. We lost basically our whole OL and Andy Dalton was a CeeDee Lamb drop away from the play-offs.

THEY ADJUSTED THE OFFENSE during the BYE LAST YEAR to match Dalton’s MO of a quick release offense. Both McCarthy and Dalton are West Coadt guys.

no you showed me a guy that wants to mail in game one of the season.....I want an example of what the excuse would look like if they lose....you couldnt show me a real one as the game has not been played...so lets hear what you think will be said?

Which was exactly what you asked for… Now you are making a new excuse about the “game has not been played”. Then why did you ask for an example then.. Like I said, your trying to change the course of the conversation.
