Pending trades, that's the spot, 28. Only 3 teams with records better or even have moved on to the championship round.Last edited by Bolt-O; 01-13-2019, 04:29 PM.

I can appreciate Telesco trying to fix the trenches but outside of Pouncey, NONE of his OL moves have worked out. He deserves some criticism for that.
Bosa.was.a great pick but disappears in big games, but was hurt this year so I'll give him a pass. But he has yet to show himself as a game changer, not even as a Justin Houston type of player. At least not in big games. Something to keep in mind when his contact is up and he wants to be the highest played defensive player in the league.
People get so sensitive about Rivers but can we please be realistic for a second? He's 38 and playing for an organization that historically does NOT value the trenches. Out of his 14 years in the league, how many good OLs has he had in his career? This is just inexcusable. His immobility simply exponentially magnifies the OL shortcomings. I'm not necessarily blaming him for it but you can't deny that it turns a suboptimal situation into a worse one.
I think we are "stuck" with him for 2019 but I would love to explore options for 2020, be it via trade or the draft.
Do we have money to spend on the trenches in free agency?
What if the defense was as good as last week? But it wasnt it was dreadful. Its a team game, why do you keep pointing at Rivers? Gordon wasnt good today either.....because the OL sucked. Other QBs that are older are still playing well but their teams are better. Brees didnt have a typicl year yet they are playing today. Brady didnt either but they kicked our butts today. Ben had a great year but didnt make the playoffs because his team wasn't as good.
When its time to move on from Rivers ill say it. Draft a QB in 2020, and 2021 should be when we say goodbye.
As for OL, we signed Okung. He was the best option at the time and overall he has been pretty decent. They drafted the two best OGs in the draft two years ago and signed Pouncey. How are they not trying to upgrade the OL? Feeney hasnt worked out as well so far is all. Lamp needs to get on the field. Im sure they will keep trying to upgrade the OL. They need to and im sure they know it.
