To me, that tells me the team is not going to add another DL and is going to ride this out for one week hoping they can get by versus a "weaker" team. Maybe it's a positive sign that maybe they expect Taylor back next week?
Taylor will be big to get back. Hopefully for LAR

Well Thomas has his now or never opportunity imo. I'd love to see what Street can do.
Since Buckner has been double teamed all year, IMHO, I'd just slide him over to 1T and let Thomas/Day tee off at 3T and utilize their quickness at the snap.
Putting Thomas and Day at 1T has been proven a big fail on tape. As it should. Those are players built on quickness and explosion, not power and anchoring.
Agree. We'd be better off utilizing our best 4 DL in every way we can. If that means playing Buck at 1T/2i part of the time, then so be it.
We just need to generate some type of pressure - whatever means they find to do that - is what they should do.

Jimmy G better be ready for weekly shootout wins from now until SB win.

Our defense isn't gonna magically suck. We still have the glue on the DL. Gonna have limit those offensive turnovers

I think teams are going to take advantage of Sherman being out. Gonna, pick on who ever gets that assignment.

I'd welcome that. It's either going to be Witherspoon or Eman and both proved to be no slouch this season

Agree. While Sherman brings experience and a cache with his play, he is the 3rd best CB on this team in terms of physical ability imo. I am more worried about Tartt being out. I hope they practice with Ward and Moore at the safety positions this week.

"We've got guys who can come in and step it up," Shanahan added. "Jullian (Taylor), who has been hurt, probably won't be able to play this week but we expect to get him back, hopefully, next week, if not the week after. He's going to have to step it up for us here with losing D.J."
"Plan on probably getting Kentavius Street up this week so we can have some numbers up there," Shanahan added. "Kentavius is a guy we spent a fourth-round draft pick on, who's battled some injuries, and he's just getting there, ready to play. With this injury [to Jones], he's going to get an opportunity.
So, plan is to activate Street this week, and then they expect Taylor back against the Rams or Seahawks.

agreed, our d isnt going to be as dominant so the offense is going to need to help them out but they are not going to be as bad as last sunday from here on out. If we get that bye and once we get Sherman and Ford back i expect the d to be much better of course.

Saints beat us to Spence. Come on Lynch. We're going into the playoffs with an overused rookie ER and no IOL. Make some damn moves beyond DJ and JM

There's a reason Damontre Moore wasn't picked up either. FO's are dumb sometimes.
How about Junior Gallette for the W9? Jonathan Sullivan for competition and depth at C?
We badly need a speed ER and IOL depth now that Garland has to start and Bosa is getting massively overused because of Ford's absence.

Amazing to have such serious injury problems year after year. Good thing that the O is clicking because it's going to be on them. With Bosa being over used and no Ford or Sherman our secondary is going to get roasted.From one of the great dlines to above average. WTF. We'll find out on Sun where we are with a good throwing QB. To give up 46 points against Brees is rrrreeeeeaaalllly concerning. As good as he is. Should have killed him.
