Not much to say, they were overmatched.

Great game from Akers…

We sucked all year. We need to improve the OLine, Run Defense, & CB.

I feel that if the rumors are true, and the Titans release Taylor Lewan, we need to sign him. I’m looking at getting an Edge, with our second round pick, could slide to us, in the 2nd round? If not, Zach Harrison would be a great fit as well.

3rd round, we go for a guy that can play play either Guard or Center, like a Ricky Stromberg, or Steve Avila.

Jack they already have more than enough guys who can play guard and center. That’s the compensating upside of playing so many guys as injury replacements. They played 8 guys at OG and 3 at OC this year. When that group recovers they can sort out which ones can play.

Run blocking looked really good to me huge lanes and holes. Mcvay got away from the short game that was so effective last week. Staley knows Mcvay run schemes and had no answer for it .Chargers are a very strong team getting a ton of all pro talent back. Wasn’t a fair fight but Akers was game

I don’t enjoy watching a team without much of a pass rush. Throw in below average play from Rapp and Hill and I lost count of my heavy sighs during the game.

Aboushi, Brewer, Edwards, Nsekhe & Skura are unrestricted free agents after this season, Anchrum & Shelton are unrestricted free agents in 2024. It’s good to get someone, in the draft, for the future.

That gives them probably Brewer (who I think they keep) and possibly Nsekhe, plus Anchrum (who still gets very high buzz), Shelton, Arcuri, Jackson, Thomas, and Bruss. There’s a player or 2 in that mix. Notice that list includes 5 or 6 with gametime experience. They will add possibly a free agent, some “ronin” (or young cuts and/or bargain FAs), a draft choice or 2, and UDFAs. I suspect it’s time to give up on Noteboom and Allen.

Edwards might be back but I doubt it. There’s nothing lacking in him, it’s just that he has a bad concussion history.
