It was odd because I felt like they were running our same defense against us, looked like a lot of the same looks we throw at people, and our Oline was just a joke. I watched Locklear completely ignore an edge rusher and help inside. I watched Helu not even pretend to chip a guy on his way out once for another sack. It was just bad all the way around, I blame the oline because there was no running game either though.

    I agree on the last point, as we pretty much knew from the beginning of the season it's all a throwaway anyway. Learn what you have from pieces you have for next year and move forward. QB isn't solved though.

    I would trade every pick in this years draft and a first next year to get Luck though I think. I don't say that lightly being a big draft guy, but I think he's going to be
    worth it.
    I think maybe you should re-watch some of those sacks. But yes, the line played poorly so I'm not blaming it all on Beck at all. His pocket awareness was poor though I thought.

    To be fair, the running game wasn't given much of a chance to get going. 8 sporadic carries by Torain was it.

    Well I don't think it's going to be that realistic to be able to get Luck, but I'd be willing to give up a lot. However, I'm also content with taking Jones, Barkley, or maybe Griffin or someone else that ends up with a first round grade.

    I will say that it looks like it was a mistake not to try to get Newton since that pick was a lot more attainable than this years #1 will be.

    Gotta be happy with Kerrigan though.

    You guys will almost certainly be picking outside the top 5. Luck is going to whoever gets that #1 pick in all likelyhood(yes I absolutely believe the COlts would take him as would STL) but even if the pick is traded, it'll be one of the teams drafting in the first few slots to get him. Say it's the Colts and they do decide to make a deal they are going to get a kings ransom from Mia or Sea just to move down one or two slots.

    I agree. Luck is nice to think about, but it's not going to happen unless they get crazy.

    I don't think invade is the right word for what the Redskins did. They stepped over the border and got beaten back mercilessly.
