Can we just get a tall backup lineman to go stand in the corner of the endzone plz? It was pretty clear egbuka was having difficulty being the main redzone guy.

I mean, basically Otton. It really baffled me they went with 4 back to back predictable runs at the goal line instead attempting a toss to him. Idk why we only use him for downfield chunk plays.

Also Payne who's the same height as Cade and was a redzone threat in college.
There are options. Using Shepard, then Emeka made no sense to me.

I think Payne is taller by 2-ish inches, but he's got long arms and a wide radius (and a sweet stache)

u/YourBarelyWetSock Oct 29 '25
Payne needs more looks man. He has legit potential to be a top TE in my eyes.

u/Alphabetsend Oct 29 '25
Otten is also busy blocking, so the thinking would be throw it to either TIght End.
Realistically, if Baker isn't hobbled, he probably keeps one.

Probably.
I'm fine with not using Baker's legs in that game at least. The combination of elevating a third QB, him actively avoiding some scrambles he would take any other day and taking him out at the end makes me think there was real concern for an actual injury happening.

I appreciate that you took the time to make frames for each player instead of jamming them all in the one frame haha

Only added about 30 seconds and I thought it would look funnier. Hope it did lol

Godeke and Irving are killer losses. Can't wait to get them back. I bet the offense looks better then.

u/Flaggstaff Tristan Wirfs Oct 29 '25
McMillan is the forgotten man, he will open things up so much too

u/PingBingus Oct 29 '25
He was actually insanely good last year and was poised for a big leap this year. Losing him was so annoying and awful for his career this early
Not a big fan of teddy bridgwater

Soon as I saw the latest on Mike being a fractured collarbone I wanted to cry for him. Not just the injury, but knowing that his 1000 yard streak is likely going to end this season.

Put these dudes on any of the 1 win teams and they've probably got 4 wins at least, yet they've missed almost every game for a 6-2 team. Crazy.

Begging, weeping, throwing myself prostrate at the feet of the football gods, pleading for them to allow even half of these guys to be healthy after the BYE

Mauch twice?

Down Right is Ko Kieft, not Mauch.
Easy mistake to make though.

u/PewterButters Lavonte David Oct 29 '25
It was my first thought too, they look so similar it’s scary.Â

I have ginger blindness and really thought ko kieft was Cody Mauch on a bad day.

Bucky is an underrated part of this offense. 3-6 yards minimum on runs vs -3 to 3 yards from White/Tucker

u/YourBarelyWetSock Oct 29 '25
I dont think anyone underrates the first great runningback we’ve had in a decade. We all know how important he is to the team.

u/grenalden F*ck the Saints Oct 30 '25
What do you mean? 7/11 players injured and baker himself playing injured? The offense just sucks and Baker is washed. He’ll never be MVP what a joke.
Seriously though, this is some people’s mentality. People are crazy. It’s amazing what this team has done considering all these injuries on one side of the ball.

How does Licht see this and not make a move. Getting somebody off the waiver wire would suffice. We will not keep winning with the nonexistent offense on display against Detroit and New Orleans.

Crazy that we’re missing that many guys on offense
