We could easily go 1-7 rest of the way. If this team is playoff bound, we will know it soon.

Between this thread and the whiny sh*t about Montgomery not being elite in the gamethread...I know who didn't get laid this weekend.

But yes, it's a hard schedule. Steelers and Lions are very winnable...so I'd expect 2 and possibly an upset for 3 as there's always one or two unexpected games in a bunch. But you're probably no that far off...5-8 or 6-7 (probably the latter) would be my guess going into the Vikings game. Our offense just isn't good enough this season.

Also, Jaire Alexander is out next week vs. the Packers...That's a game-changing type of injury. I mean, I expect us to lose because Rodgers...but we have one of the best pass rushes in the game to fluster hime and maybe...MAYBE we can get something going in the passing game with this generation's Deion out.

I wouldn't be surprised if they swept the Vikes.

Man...I'd consider putting Mack inside and Gipson on the edge. At least as a specialty package once in a while.

Well...duh. The only person here that isn't an idiot is you. We all already know that.

Lets move Mack to tackle! brilliant! That'll fool them, those suckers. Total mad genius move (rolls eyes)

Pure agony post-Browns game and Genius is all quiet...3 seconds of happiness because we won our last 2 and here he is to piss in Cheerios.

I'm telling you guys...Cheesehead.

LOL!

Moving Mack inside would make him an ILB. Because he's currently and OLB. The I stands for inside. The O for outside. The LB is for linebacker, if you're wondering.

And his coverage skills allow you the opportunity to make the offense wonder if he's blitzing or dropping.

NY Giants used to do it with Lawrence Taylor a lot when they had 2 good pass rushers out there with him.

Need a diagram of what a 3-4 defense looks like? Because I could draw you one.

Total mad genius move (rolls eyes)

Says the guy that doesn't understand what position Khalil Mack even plays.

He just enjoys being a contrarian.

This is all he has in life. Let him enjoy it.

Did i say something different? I was just simply saying move Mack inside because it's so brilliant.

lol Brilliant. Lets make Mack cover instead of rushing the passer.

Sure! It worked for LT so it must work for Mack!

Brilliant! Derrrrrrrrrr

I mean...Despite the rampant trolling of genius, the direction of the discussion does kind of lead me to wonder how much of our newfound pass rush this season is the players stepping up vs Pagano/Desai switch?

If I had to make an estimate-it's obviously a combination of both-I'd lean more toward Desai's approach making a larger part of the difference.

You realize he already does play coverage, right? Sometimes as much as 30% of his snaps.

Yeah but you thought moving inside meant tackle. So….you know….der. And stuff.

Quinn being healthy and playing well is a huge impact. The rest I put on Desai.

We’ve seen him move players around and disguise his blitzes and coverages.

I’ve seen him use his NB to basically pick an OT tackle and allow Mack a one on one versus a RB.

He’s wheeling his coverages. Showing one look pre snap and rotating to something different as the play develops.

Players have to execute but Pagano was far too vanilla. Desai is mixing it up and making in game adjustments. All good stuff.

I simply said to move him inside to tackle because it would so freaking brilliant. Don't put words in my mouth grey pubes.

Would LOVE to see proof he plays coverage 30% of the time. I'm all ears.

All pure rubbish. My lord your inability to evaluate this team is shocking.

Oh okay. That makes total sense.

You could watch the games. That would probably be the place to start.
