    Is that all you do is post emojis ?
    Looks like your the one seeking attention with nothing to say.



    Khan is the best. We needed another OL.
    I post emojis because I am a loser and think the Steelers are always right. Save it.
    Or post another emoji .

    At least for this year everyone can stop hoping this kid will contribute. If Russ can continue to improve our passing game we owe it to guys like TJ to try and upgrade. Van Jefferson and CA3 are weak AF.

    Not every week

    He did play

    And it was Smith who made that decision because he needed to get up to game speed

    I'm not sure about this. The bucs are down to their 3 wr having to be a 1sts, and I know the 49ers are in a bind at the position now also. At least we do have who we thought was our number 1 still playing. We shall see

    I don't see us in a bind.
    TBH I believe the team has shown how many options they have and it was just not executed good enough in these early games.

    From what I read is
    our WR room sucks and Rodgers was going to torch our secondary

    yeah cause khan caused them to get injured. We needed the oline men. By all accounts Fautanu was a steal.

    Agree with forgottenone the need may not as big as we thought our current wrs may drastically improve if the chemistry is there with Russel . was there against the Jets no reason to dought it will not be there against the gintz . optimistic about this year with Russel at qb

    Martavis Bryant is out there. He might still be able to play, could potentially be a good #2. Doesn't hurt to give him a tryout if these trade ideas don't work out.

    Good spot to see his injury history: https://www.draftsharks.com/fantasy/injury-history/cooper-kupp/7761

    He had a high ankle sprain in week 2 of this year. I had one of those once. As painful as a broken bone and takes longer to heal in some cases. He probably won't be 100% until week 10 I bet, although he is supposed to play this week. That might be because the Rams are actively shopping him before the trade deadline. Nobody is going to want to pick him up if he is not on the field. Healthy, he would give us some much needed WR firepower.

    He has some very big numbers in the cap hit for the next couple of years on his contract.

    While I think he could make us better, against the Jets, we got our TEs involved a lot more and it made a huge difference. I do think we can make it thru this season just fine with what we have now. Other than this year, Kelsey was pretty much WR1. Look at what Gronk did for Brady. Kittle is pretty damned good too. Muth is good and for the paycheck he is getting, he needs to be involved a lot more than he has been in the first 6 games.......imo

    I was thinking something similar about Austin. He is definitely a plus to the team, but I have seen him miss a few passes that he should have had imo.

    I have said the same thing about Muth. His percentage stats are better by a good bit than most WRs.

    If Washington can rumble for a couple of yards to get some momentum built up, it is easier to stop a charging bull. No zigs, no zags. Just straight up running thru people. If he gets hit right at the start, he seems to not go far. Maybe he should be the guy sitting to the right side a few yards behind the line to give the QB a safety valve.

    I think will would lose out on the receivers that everyone one is talking about us acquiring.
    I would trade for PUKA NACUA TODAY!
    1)Just activated from IR. With our bye week he could be available week Ten
    2)Not a free agent until 2027
    3)Low salary cap number

    Those are all reasons for the Rams to keep him. They’re only making Kupp available to start clearing cap space for some rebuilding next year.

    LOL. One small problem. There is no good reason for the Rams to trade him. He is on a cheap rookie contract and established himself as one of the top receivers in the league last season.

    Dhop on the move. Just a 5th rd pick.

    What is Khan doing. Maybe they have no interest in upgrading the room.
