Rodgers: R-E-L-A...wait, I don't play for this team anymore. Screw 'em.
My spidey sense is telling me that the Packers aren’t going to the Super Bowl this year.

Tape study, maybe a concussion? Teams are always constant evolving in response to the tape they put out.Well the Seachickens are now on top of the NFC West and they deserve it. They're playing some pretty decent ball right now. IDK what's going on with the 9ers. Their D has been pretty bad, but their O has been stinking it up the last 3 weeks. Purdy was making some great throws but then drops some head scratchers. Thank goodness we have the bye week 9 to hopefully stop the bleeding. I'll take 5-3 going into the bye though. I think they've been 4-4 or worse going into the bye the last 4 years before we make a playoff push. But we've got a tough schedule coming up.
He's also 0-1 when leading 28-3.Saw on Reddit that Kyle Shanahan is now 0-37 when trailing by 8+ in the 4th.
If they lose @JAX after the bye, the season is effectively over. Sure it's only the mid-way point and last year's Bengals proved you can recover from early adversity. However, the Niners are one of a handful of "Super Bowl or bust" teams and I doubt any team that's ever lost 4 straight games has made a SB run.Well the Seachickens are now on top of the NFC West and they deserve it.

Chase is an athletic one-trick pony with no moves besides a speed rush. Hasn't progressed.So the Niners gave up a 3rd round pick to get Chase Young... I don't like the trade in a vacuum because we needed a DB or O-linemen. But it's possible neither were really available. I really don't like it because it's just a rental? His rookie contract is up and if it wasn't for his injuries he'd be looking for the bag, but unsure what he'd be worth on the open market at this moment. Teams usually don't give out big pay days to inconsistent players with injury history (key word, usually).
Yea I'm a bit disappointed we couldn't land a shut down corner. I haven't been keeping up with Young so IDK how he's doing this year but all I've heard in the past is that he's always injured. Then again, so was CMC so you never know. Been hearing in some FB groups Kyle is going to want Wilks to be on the sidelines vs up in the box. I'm not sure how that's going to solve anything. The D was good when he was in the box for the first 5 games. I think he just lacks the ability to adjust.So the Niners gave up a 3rd round pick to get Chase Young...

It boggles my mind before Chase even, with how much money is in that front D-Line they have failed to get pressures after those first 5 games. That isn't Wilks fault.Purdy's turnovers are a problem for sure

The beginning of the end for Chase Young was that playoff game. Wanted Tom, never got Tom, stonewalled everytime...never adjusted. More Andre Carter than Michael Strahan.As a life long Commanders fan, I've been there since Chase Young came into the NFL.
He started out seeing like he would live up to the hype, but ever since his injury his rookie season, that hype has been nowhere NEAR what it was back then.
There have been a lot of questions about his effort and desire to play football at a high level too. I listen to local sports talk basically all day while working so I hear a lot of stuff about the Commanders. There seems to be a rift between him and Rivera as well, and the general sentiment is that the fans think a lot more of Chase young than the people in the building do as well.
I don't think it is surprising that he only got a late round 3rd pick. He's nothing special here and could just end up being a JAG. He shows flashes, but not enough for a 2nd overall pick which should be a full time impact player. He's had 14 sacks in his career here, which does include injury time. But still, that just is not that much.
He rarely wins his 1 on 1's and doesn't really have any "moves" to get to the QB. It's basically him just doing the same stuff every time and it doesn't work.
That said, I do think a change of scenery is great for him and I think he could be super impactful in SF alongside Bosa. The Commanders defensive coordinator is awful and he does NOTHING unique or special. He cannot dial up ANY plays that are going to surprise the other team so it's like always just the same 4 rushing the same way every time. So that doesn't help him either.
I think with the right coaching and scheme he will be a great player.
Raiders let go of McDaniel & their GM last night. Interim is going to be their linebacker coach. Who's next?
this is actually a great idea. Biennemy (sp?) does deserve a HC after what he did for KC for a few years. Although Washington might want to get rid of Riverboat Ron and hire him as HC next year.Raiders should have kept their interm coach when they fired Chucky, the players loved that dude, forget where he's at now. But if they were smart they'd go after the Commanders OC and give him a HC job after the season is done. That guy deserves a shot AND he's familar with a division foe.
