This is the worst fear when we decided to be cheap after Coleman went down. This is big as far as I am concerned. Skule is not ready to play.
Cheap with what? Who were we suppose to bring in?
Dude how many times have we had this debate. You say there was nothing we could have done, then multiple players go on to have better seasons than what we had.
To answer the question. Jordan Mills would have been nice.
How many teams have 4 quality tackles on their roster? Many teams don't even have 2, but this team is supposed to think ahead just in case we lose both our swing tackle and then our starting LT before week 3? C'mon
This. People here want a starter quality backup which nobody in the NFL has.
We're gonna have to count on KS and staff to coach the backup and scheme around this weakness. We have the best offensive coach in the NFL so at least I know everything that can be done will be done.
We have known for a month we were down to Staley and MM as our tackles. We looked at FA's and decided that we wanted to keep Skule.
This is the same thing as when we decided we were fine not adding DE help last year when we literally had no outside pass rushers. NONE. But you had people saying there was no one we could have got and we suffered all year because we didn't make a move.
