For reals, this team even with all the training camp hype has no depth when injuries happen at most positions. Good but non impactful players at RB, TE, DL and CB. These are starters. Questionable coaching staff and GM. What am I missing?
Eno and Wilson have been pretty good. We must be watching different games.

<cough> Fitz <cough>
@juza76 The thing about Fitz, with all due respect to the legend, is he still doesnt solve the Arnold subtraction.

You could make the case Arnold was one of our fastest pass catches, the best leaper outside of Hopkins, and had a huge catch radius.

I guess if Larry isnt playing that much he'd be more productive/quicker with less reps. A fresher Fitz is the only way I see him filling that void. Still tough at that age.

I wouldn't be so down on streveler, played behind an atrocious unit today, he is improved and can offer some versality, can play special teams if needed too
I saw a qb run where he got 3 extta yards, we missed several 3and inches last season

I don't know he reminds me of a better throwing Tebow. I don't know if he's as good a runner as Tebow was but he doesn't mess around he sticks his foot in the ground goes forward and rarely goes down on first contact. He's certainly not a great thrower but I think he's a better passer than people realize.

Gotta keep saying it that picksix against the Rams was a free play offsides that the refs missed.
I agree with most but I still feel he isn’t an NFL caliber QB. McCoy isn’t great but he’s a huge upgrade over him.

Streveler is a fringe running back attempting to play QB, you will not win any regular season games with this guy. Makes no freaking sense to have him... better off having some rookie who can actually throw a football which is the main requirement for the job
Totally agree Texan

I want see streveler playing with moore and offensive line starters next week
Instead of Mccoy can play some clutch plays in game day
Im not sure if Murray is out we can win a single game with Mccoy

I know our 3-4 string defensive lineman have played basically the whole game but not one guy that I can remember beat his man one on one to get to the QB. Would like to see our guys win more battles against comparable depth chart from Dallas
