Pursuit of a Top 3 pick

Post by Jizz Mop » Sat Oct 15, 2022 5:04 pm

Seems like bed wetting is in this year

So….

With the current rash of injuries and the inability to score, we have no shot tomorrow

Dolphins? Slight chance depending on injury report

Eagles? No shot

Saints? A shot yes

Bengals? No way

Colts? Nope

Falcons? A shot yes

Ravens? Nope

Panthers? Yes def a shot

Raiders? A shot

Ravens? Nope

Browns? Def a shot if we are healthy and we are trying to fuck their playoff chances

I see 4-5 wins max

I really see a 4-13 season, which should be a Top 3 pick

That being the case we have to hit on that pick. Best OT, best DL is my wish.

Man have we fallen on hard times.

I thought 7-10 WITH Watt. And, yeah, losing him for this stretch is probably 2-3 wins. Might have pulled out NE and/or NYJ with Watt.

But then you also have to factor in Tomlin fucking up and giving away his usual 1-2 wins per season.

A lot of young players on offense so Improvement is a possibility on that side of the football over the course of the season.

Maybe the Pickett to Pickens connection will continue to develop and start finding the end zone.

Bluto: What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!...

It ain't over now, 'cause when the goin' gets tough, the tough get goin'. Who's with me? Let's go! Come on!...(He ran to the front door but no one followed him)

Bluto (returning): What the f--k happened to the Fury I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. 'Ooh, we're afraid to go with you, Bluto, we might get in trouble.' (shouting) Well, just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Brady, he's a dead man! Bowles, dead! Arians...

Otter: Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now, we could fight 'em with conventional weapons. That could take years and cost millions of lives. No, in this case, I think we have to go all out. I think this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.

We're just the guys to do it...LET'S DO IT!

Without WATT POWER!!! or Minkah we're fucked, and who knows how dicked up these guys will be when they get back. I could definitely see a top 5 pick.

Yeah it would. But who the hell is gonna do it???

No low Watt, no Leal, banged up Heyward, banged up Ojunjobi.

Hopefully Highsmith and the Worm can eek out a couple bone crushers.

With many injuries comes many great opportunities…4 down on defense, maybe just maybe one of these backups is the next Harrison or Troy! LOL

As I have said before, Tomlin is in charge of entertainment once the playoffs are gone. Watching Kenny tomorrow will still be must watch. Just watched some Najee highlights…you can see a slight gimp when he is trying to turn the corners. Either that or the steel plate makes me see it!

If he is back to 100% there is no reason Kenny, Warren or Najee, with Pickens can’t break the Canada shackles together. They can be a formidable trio to cause a 12 versus 11 or 10 mentality on offense. The breakout offensive game is coming, might have to wait for Canada’s boot from the box, but it is coming!

Considering how infrequently the offense has been scoring.

If the defense gets a safety in three consecutive quarters it could double last week's output.

Love the positivity man and its a huge maybe to ever “find” another Harrison to emerge from a backup position. Lunacy to think another Troy rises from those depths. Still like the positive vibes though.

The good news is that the DB's being elevated weren't tainted by Tomlin's coaching their first few years. They have a fighting chance at least.

Nah. Once a very high pick looks to be the bag they’ll rip off several wins to close out the season.

Even though the playoffs are not within reach.

We will end up outside top 10 and Dunce will pat his boy on the head for a job well done.
