Love Witten but Dak really needs a receiving TE at this point. Our offense is hurting, Dez can't get separation, Williams is Williams, Beasley is being double covered etc etc. Zeke at least was close to being in top form today.

Yeah, Saint Jason is one of the big problems with this team but you have to go into the witness protection program to say it. Or be an elite cage fighter like me.

It's over. We'll always have the memories. Please, just go.

In a league where talent is both thin and even, most fans realize that Garrett after 7 years has reached his ceiling as a coach and is never gonna advance past early playoffs. I wish Jerry would.

mr Ranching--- I have been going over schedule and i cant put us at 10-6...unless a significant better change in teams play occurs
Call me Ranch. Lol
Ranch--- for me this was such a terrible loss..hurt even more than Denver and that one hurt....i have thrown all coaches all offense all defense and special teams under the bus and they can stay there for a while

Well, as positive as I want to be, it's not working. We have big personell wholes and even bigger coaching deficiencies. 10 and 6 is optimistic and 8 and 8 is realistic. Anything less than that should call for a new staff.

I expected them to struggle early this season.

Defense is super young. Hard to overcome losing both Lee and Hitchens.

They have two OL spots that are new and another change today.

Zeke didn't really play in the preseason which might have been a mistake. He and Dez are playing their way into shape.

I said 9-7 before the season. Nothing has changed for me, yet.

Replacing Free, Leary, Claiborne, Carr, Wilcox, and Church wasn't going to be as easy as some thought. We're also dealing with a first place schedule and expectations, neither of which were there last season.

8-8 should call for a coaching change. But our 13-3 record last year will keep the coaches here at least through next season; that's what Jerry will point to no matter how bad we do this season.

I agree, not playing in the preseason is showing. Zeke's stamina, Dak to Dez connection, and so on

he has one. thats why Rico is stashed on ir right now, think this is Wittens final year. if someone gets hurt, watch Rico get suddenly very healthy
It really don't matter who we have if they're not used properly.

I can't believe that it's taken everyone this long to see what some of us saw well before the season started.

Those comparing Russell Wilson to Dak are way off. Outside of being both on the short side, and black, they have nothing in common.

As far as the division it's weak. If we can get the Eagles while they are still decimated on defense that's a winnable game. Giants are awful as predicted, and Washington is overrated. Anyone with a good ground game, and decent quarterback can beat them. Also they can't defend against the pass rush. A healthy Philly team just bullied them.

It's anyone's division to win.
