Well you look at players based only on how they might help the team as a fan. Jerry looks at them as numbers and what it cost to add them to the team. As far as running backs Jerry is paying close to 12 million dollars this year for that position. Expecting him to bring in Henry who even at week 8 will still be owed about 6 million from his 10 plus million 2023 salary. So do you really think Jerry is willing to pay 18 million dollars this year just for the running back position?
i wasnt discussing what jerry will or wont do.

If we make a trade it's at a low cost.
Henry isn't coming here...The Titans have been trying to trade him since the combine and teams are not that interested. Probably, because the wheels on that bus are about to fall off soon! If he is moved the Ravens could be the landing spot.

Michael Thomas...Trade Gallup straight up for him? I think he would fit in nicely with Cooks and Lamb.

A player I do like is RB Samaje Perine...240 lb. back that will add some bulk in the redzone, a good 3rd down back and he understands his role. Signed a 2 year 7 million deal with Denver, so the price tag is low.

Hunter Renfrow is interesting ...he would give us that underneath target we are missing. How can we have a short passing game without the wr to make the scheme work? Dak's best years were when he had Beasly to dump it to.

Titans CB Kristian Fulton is in Vrabel's dog house and he most certainly won't be with the Titans next season. It probably wouldn't take much to acquire him if the Titans can get a little something for him now. A change of scenery is what Fulton probably needs more than anything and adding him would allow us to put Bland back in the slot.

So after last season we wanted to blame Moore for Dak's failures. Play calling had no connection from one play to the next. Just out trying to score with no thought to the actual game flow. We said Dak didnt have the Wrs he needed.

We get rid of Moore and Mike takes over. We bring in Cooks. Gallup is now healthy. Pollard becomes the full time back everyone was clamoring for. The first 2 games everyone is singing Mikes praises. Dak isnt turning it over, the offense is much more balanced, we are just slinging it around...... then the defense didnt dominate. We go into Az and I agree with you about being way to conservative, but that doesnt change the fact Dak threw an absolute HORRIBLE pick late in the game in the endzone. Was that play calling?

I agree to some point about Mike. Too conservative, plays afraid to make mistakes. But he is calling the game that way for a reason, and that reason i we have Dak behind center and not Mahomes.
sorry I disagree hundred percent you can keep saying that first of all most of us did not blame Kellen Moore for the problems last year we’ve seen Kellen Moore and Prescott and most of these wide receivers have career years with Prescott and KMoore together,

they felt they could do a little better without Kellen Moore as far as conservative football went as far as playing a little bit more to a defense that’s keeping scores low..Guess what inthe 2 loasses that didnt happen the d was horrible.. Back to the drawing board on protecting a defense. Its not working.

I mean you can say whatever you want or some of the people that may have blamed Kellen Moore that is not actually the case when you hear people from the front office they have mutual respect for Kellen Moore,​
it was a mutual decision and parted ways because Kellen Moore likes to throw the ball no matter what the score is no matter how far they are up, no matter what the situation is he gets locked in at running up a score , he is not defensive friendly... that is why they decided to part ways not because they blamed him for some of the issues last year with interceptions, Buit for me it was more receivers themselves and the TEs all these bounced passes out their hands,the bad routed, missed reads, the tipped balls at the line, that was on the lineman.​

And here we are again with the lack of a physical oline the lack of a good run game and we have receivers once again seemingly confused on how they’re supposed to run depth of the routes when they’re supposed to cut etc. etc. the timing is off but I think it’s hilarious that you think that we thought it was going to fix everything but get ready: that was not the narrative.

By the way 100% nothing wrong with that interception of Prescott from desperation at the end of the game that was over you can argue it was an over I watch our defense play... they were covering everybody, that was simply Prescott trying to make something happen if he can get it over that linebacker and in between safety and corner that’s right yeah our wrs have been covered most of the year.

It hd no bearing on the loss, none whatsoever we’re not coming back in the game you obviously don’t watch the game like many who can see the issues.

just like the three interceptions in the 49er game does we’re all pretty much after the game was decided I’d be frustrated as a quarterback to win no one is consistently are not getting open, had no run game, the playcalling is questionable, and it’s some point you just got to try to throw it up and hope somebody will get under it and make a play,

we seen that one other teams like PJ Walker whatever his name is the four passes only really completed those 4 to Cooper we’re just prayers they were literally Hail Mary's he could’ve got in the hands of the day but I made Cooper made a play on it that’s all that was trying to do,

yeah he forced it but I have no bearing on the loss whatsoever we’re not coming back in the game you obviously don’t watch the Florida game just like the three interceptions in the 49er game doors were all pretty much after the game was decided I’d be frustrated as a quarterback to have one now seems are not getting open I had no run game the play calling is questionable and it’s some point you just gotta try to throw it up and hope somebody will get under and make a play because we seen that one other teams biggest like PJ Walker whatever his name is the four passes is only really completely forgot to do my Cooper we’re just prayers they were literally Hail Marys, the defense could’ve got their hands on them but Cooper fought for them, that’s all Dak was trying to do..


WE Call people like you a troll and hater when you bring up the quarterback first,

when we can all go back in the way we witnessed a game somehow you got such a game of Roblox differently because you wanted to make it but Scott’s issue and it is not Prescott is you and those games always interceptions this year only four which is 27th in the league for quarterbacks he has no fumbles he literally is not making mistakes when the game is actually on the line when they actually are still competing tomorrow after the games I’ve already basically been lost because nobody on all fence Defense or special teams were making please including the coaching we’re not creating play to win the game.​

There was absolutely no proof that it does interceptions weren’t done we were going to have even a slight more chance to win the game at all no way I watched it the flower the game said keep it still wasn’t stopping anybody receiver still weren’t getting open and the only way you come back from 18 points down or get back in the game that’s all good over here she created for us to turn over the defense couldn’t even stop the one on the past it look like practice especially in the San Francisco game and literally look like they were scrimmaging against our number twos.

You damn right I’m calling you a hater because that’s what you’re doing when you’re myopic and all you see is the quarterback Prescott has not been responsible for any of our losses this year

Please don’t say he’s not the reason for the win, we watch the games 75% of the problems are squarely on the deep end. End of story

we watched it they weren’t stopping anybody from the opening till the end not enough they weren’t going to get it done no matter what they trying to do an office because again you did for Prescott no one game the office of line was playing on our side of the scrimmage and nobody was getting open on a consistent basis that is how you failed to win games please don’t say he’s not the reason for the winning we watch the games 75% of the problems were squarely on the deep end. End of story we watched it they weren’t stopping anybody from the opening till the end not enough they weren’t going to get it done no matter what they trying to do an office because again either Prescott no one game the office of line was playing on our side of the scrimmage and nobody was getting open on a consistent basis that is how you fail to win games

That is why I would agree it’s a team lost but you want to put this on Prescott I’m gonna fight you too all the way to the end not because I’m up Prescott apology watching watch the to that is why I would agree as a team lost but you want to put this on Prescott I’m gonna fight you too all the way to the end not because I’m a Prescott apologize watching football my life and when I seen those two houses had nothing to do with a quarterback

It’s not Dak it’s the damn McCarthy system. Free Dak and let him play. Forget last year that was not a typical Dak year for INT’s. Let him throw the ball down field like he used to do. Then Cooks or Gallup will look different.
Relying on Dak is a losing recipe.

Henry is a must.

You have defended the QB with great passion while stating that the rest of the team and coaches are basically crap. So my question is what amount of blame do you place on #4?
Yeah,

that’s all you got that’s an easy answer...

when you see a team show up and play great defense, special teams ,run game ,like everything is going well with the Line and Prescott just looks like total crap and he’s the sole reason they lose the game when it’s quite obvious team played well but he didn’t, yeah its time to blame the quarterback...

until then, too many moving pieces we watched the games they lost, literally terrible defense, no run game, penalty's all over, lack of a physical offensive line I mean reasons all over the place including the scheme ,play calling , execution by the receivers they almost never open, somethings wrong....

And by the way I’ve never seen that happen,

I mean if Prescott has any resemblance of a run game it is solid o line playing at least above average, if his receivers are getting open more than they are and running routes properly in a defense comes to play at least show some resistance, we almost went all those games ....

IN the end, is there any doubt that the Bills, Bengals and Chiefs will battle for the trip to the SB? Teams lose games... that is part of the deal in the NFL.

The NFC is WIDE open IMO, and Dak absolutely could lead us there.... he COULD, but I have seen nothing to make me as confident as Id be if we had Burrow, Allen or Mahomes.

Ive seen Dak play lights out. Last year he was MVP level after the first 5 games. Then he disappeared.
Who is afraid of the Bengals?

Henry makes the entire team better. He makes dak better cause you have to cheat up linebackers and safeties to stop him. We can use this and really take advantage. You want to say dak is a bus driver, well this helps the bus driver alot. Helps the defense as well. Henry is a punishing runner. Imagine him running behind our oline. That would be insane.

Almost every team that thinks they’re a legitimate contender has likely inquired what it would take to acquire Derrick Henry. If Tennessee moves him it will be to the team that offers them the most. It will take more than just a third round pick.

our o line isnt good at all, and its debatable how much success henry would have with them. I'm leaning toward if the 5 best rbs ever to play combined their DNA, would we still be able to get a 1,000 yard rusher with this line?

Our line is average at this point can Henry block?

That said he’d make a good 1 , 2 punch with pollard if McCarthy can pull his head out of his colo and use them right

I was hoping, before the season started, for an Aaron Donald trade at the deadline. but thought the rams needed to have the wheels fall off for that trade to happen

I guess the Niners arent.... as they have watched Joe Burrow slice them up and walk up and down the field. Just like I said, is there much doubt Burrow, Mahomes, and Allen will be there in the end battling?

Battling yes. Those two beating Mahomes? Not so much.
