Where is Ekoe Boye Doe ? Poach him for some depth. That dude has some talent and surprised me he was cut so quickly.
Just did a search he is back in his home country Ghana. Just strange he was on the active SB roster to waived the next year. He reminded me a little of Sauce Gardner. |

Realistically they're gonna take Josh Williams, who has started games and played in Super Bowls, and insert him into the lineup while they find someone else to replace him on teams. It's a no brainer.
And the opportunity you know he's been waiting for. |

I think Boye Doe must have got hooked chewing Khat and became a pirate back in Ghana.

Now that said, Cook's injury happened in week 13. Had it happened in say week 9, we may have gotten him back by the post-season. If we have a long playoff run, we probably get him back. It's still awfully early in the season. But man, we seem to take a bullet every week. And none of them are short term. It's pretty brutal. Losing Eric Fisher wasn't the end of the world for us during that playoff run. But eventually we took one more bullet than the team could reasonably withstand. The cascade effect of these injuries is going to continue to pile up on us. I know we're sitting at 6-0 but it still feels to me like we're going to have to hustle to stay above 12-5 (what a strange bar that 12-5 would feel disappointing). There's gonna be some pain coming. |

But now that the Watson hurdle has been removed, there's no reason to think Williams CAN'T step up and be solid. Like I said, it's the cascade effect. We're already insanely thin at WR. We're getting thinner at DB. We just cannot continue to take these long-term injuries to starters. |

How did everybody feel about Roland-Wallace steeping in? He had a pick and tackled well but gave up a catch or two.

I feel like it's on the verge of finding an identity and playing to that identity quite well. But that's a 25-30 rush/gm, short/intermediate passing team. A RBBC that is effective but not explosive with a play-action passing game that is going to take a couple deep shots/gm while using some WR motion on reverses, etc... to find some space in the middle of the field for the TEs. Honestly, I think the offense we saw on Sunday is about what we'll see going forward and what may make/break any given game (offensively) is just hitting that deep shot. I mean I could EASILY see a scenario where Mahomes doesn't hit 4K yards passing this season but we end up with 1,500+ yards from Pacheco/Hunt. And that's not a bad offense, but it's an offense that probably settles in the 16-21 ppg range and if they hit 27+ it's going to be off a big special teams play, a short field created by a turnover or they hit that shot play. And there WILL be games that happens. But there was a lot that went right schematically yesterday and we put up 325 total yards. That's...not exactly 'breaking out'. It's...okay. I think this is roughly where we're gonna live for a bit. And it's fine but it's gonna be a bit of a throwback offense. And with our bye being so early and injuries now starting to ding some depth on the defense, we're asking a lot of them to keep this up. |
