I might be the one of very few who pays no mind to what coaches say to the media.
I have trust that Jim and company have much deeper analysis and understanding of our team and what is needed than I ever will.
So I don't read into every little word.
Just win. Give the media and fans nothing, just win.

Agreed. He is not going to say Bozeman stinks
He did call out Boze for missing a blocking assignment against the Commanders

He also made a comment to the effect that there is nobody better, which I took to mean why he is starting over James. I'd still like to see James start a game and see how that goes. I really have a hard time believing he'd do worse than Bozeman.

Well, I trust that he is better than James. Maybe find a backup better than James . The Center play is not sustainable for long term success.

ESPN article - Graziano and Fowler go back and forth -- this is a blurb on running backs. At the end, Keaton Mitchell from Baltimore is mentioned as a possible name for the Bolts because of the Hortiz ties:
Name one running back who could be traded before the deadline.

Name one running back who could be traded before the deadline.


Graziano: The name that comes up most is the Jets' Breece Hall. He's 24 years old and in the final year of his contract, and the Jets have made no move to sign him long term. Braelon Allen is out because of a knee injury, which complicates things for the Jets from a 2025 depth-chart perspective. But Allen is only 21 years old and under contract for two more years after this one. They also like Isaiah Davis, who is 23 and also signed through 2027. So there are plenty of reasons Hall might not be in the Jets' long-range plans, and they could be open to a nice offer. Teams I expect to have interest in acquiring a running back ahead of the deadline include, but are not limited to, the Chiefs, Texans and Chargers.

Fowler: Team execs have also pegged the Patriots among teams that could look to add a back in the coming weeks. And good call on Hall. He has said publicly he doesn't want to be traded, but he's also on an 0-6 team, so it feels as if all bets are off.

I'll go with the Browns' Jerome Ford. It's a rookie show in Cleveland. Quinshon Judkins and Dylan Sampson will man the backfield moving forward. The Browns have remained active in the market with three trades executed in recent weeks. And Ford has enough cachet in the league -- with 1,378 rushing yards and seven touchdowns over 2023-24 -- to attract interest. Weekly NFL game expert picks

Graziano: If Miami decides to trade players before the deadline, it could move on from Jaylen Wright. He was a healthy scratch Sunday against the Chargers and seems to have been supplanted by rookie Ollie Gordon II on the depth chart behind starter De'Von Achane. And with Tyrone Tracy Jr. back healthy, and Cam Skattebo running people over, the Giants don't seem to have a screaming need for Devin Singletary anymore. He's making $3.5 million in fully guaranteed salary this season. But at this point, more than $1 million of that has been paid by the Giants, who are looking around for receiver help and might be willing to eat some salary if it's the right kind of deal to help them.

Fowler: Wright is a player I've had on my radar for that very reason. A lot of teams were high on him in the 2024 draft, including Dallas, which has a soft need after the Miles Sanders injury. And here's a change-of-pace option: Baltimore's Keaton Mitchell. He has game-changing speed but is the odd man out in the Ravens' backfield. It's worth noting that Chargers GM Joe Hortiz was with Baltimore when the team signed Mitchell as an undrafted free agent in 2023.

Audric Estimé, RB from Eagles pratice squad ?

Per Jim Harbaugh, the window to return has been opened for Mr. Khalil Mack ("football player").

Perryman's window is also open.

Just hope they don't rush Mack back, only to have a lingering injury. Not so worried about Perryman, he will play like a maniac until the next injury, anyway.

Hey we got Dalevon Campbell back!

I like him as a project on the PS

Mack looked like he was ready a few days after the injury. He'll wear that arm brace.

Harbaugh speaks in sweeping generalizations and it’s always complimentary.

I don’t see the difference other than Harbaugh is winning so he gets a pass.

Harbaugh praises Bozeman every chance he gets.

Agree. With 21 too. Win and nobody cares what you say. Lose and nobody listens. Coaches will continue to not care about pressers, they have no intention of saying anything they think and definitely nothing they plan. If they do, its a slip. they are only standing there due to league rules. its kabuki, I take none of it seriously and believe less.

Interesting peaks behind the curtain.

TPB Poll> If Pipkins returns this week, which OT sits: Hart or Deculus? I’ll bet Hart plays but not betting more than a 3-pack of taquitos since he’s been getting work on the right side, aka Pipkin’s side.

I didnt see a blurb on Salyer lately.
