Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
Posted this in another thread, fits better in this one:
How to be better next year: Better guard and center play (more specifically in regards to the running game) Better pass rush Both these areas will improve internally when we get injured guys back. Then add a few draft picks up front on both sides and I think we'll be greatly improved there. I also see Alfmo leaving and us drafting another rb.

Our RB position is just not good enough, Morris is just not a homerun threat in any fashion. I think your starting RB needs to be that threat, and in the passing game too. I've come around to chico's thinking on the center position, too. I don't think you outright cut Lichtensteiger but you definitely do what you can to upgrade it. If you successfully upgrade then you can let Steiger go. Smart player but just not big enough.

Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
We are picking 21st in the draft. Here are the 21st picks since the merger:
Draft Finder Query Results | Pro-Football-Reference.com Some good names on the list, particularly in recent years. A solid blue-chip player should be reasonably expected.

Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
Also, quick aside, since 1970, we have never picked in the 21st slot.

Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
Still believe gruden is in over his head...just the adjustments or lack thereof as many have stated is probably biggest issue. The team did well to build leads but then we would always see dicey moments where game was in the balance which is not good when leading by 2 or 3 scores.
For better or worse, he is now joined at the hip with cousins. Very possible that both are here in 2 years or both gone. Still not sold on gruden. |

You need offensive balance in the playoffs. When Green Bay runs the ball they go from good to great team. Ill take Rogers numbers, lacy numbers and the W.

RG3 left a note on his locker
![]() a bit of a shame that he had to make one last statement after handling this season so well. |

Re: Better days ahead. (Off season part 1 thread)
If we go up 16-0, and the defense held, I promise Alf's numbers would have gone up. In fact, one more offensive TD would have changed the whole nature of the game, but it didn't happen.

Why? Nothing wrong with that note. Some sound advice on there.

I wish RGIII well. The last half of 2012 was incredibly fun (destroying the 'Boys on Thanksgiving made that, well, pretty much the best Thanksgiving ever). Would love to see him resurrect his career someplace (not in the NFC East).
