November Banter 2025

The offensive line is horrendous, and Monkon doesnt know how to call plays to help offset their deficiencies. We know the 2 guards are bad, but no one on that line has been playing to their capabilities this season. Hard to mask it on a consistent basis. Lamar was the guy doing it by running around and extending plays, but with the leg issues he simply can't do it.

Pass rush has been pretty putrid as well. 
 

It’s so obvious Lamar isn’t healthy that the Jets don’t have to spy him or even account for him running. Makes the offense way less unpredictable.

Another sucky Ravens team performance. But a win is still a win. 

[WxUSAF]

Never a doubt

2 ugly wins in a row against bad teams. That wont get it done going forward against better teams.

I keep telling people this but no one wants to listen. I’m not an, “I told you so!” guy….but I’m not gonna be shocked if we lose once or twice to Pittsburgh and teams like NE/GB

OL is not good, and hopefully Emery Jones gets a shot at one of the guard positions. Defense is good enough if Hamilton isnt seriously injured. Biggest wildcard is Lamar's health going forward. He can cover up the weak OL if he is able to run around and buy time in the pocket, or take off downfield. He can't do that right now.

It would also help if Monken wasn't such a greedy dolt. Your OL fucking sucks. Your QB has bad wheels right now. Stop with the slow developing pass plays. Get Mitchell more involved.

Good god the LR thread. Maybe they are right, idk. It’s also November 23rd

Sucky offense...defense is what kept us in it.

[Maestrobjwa]

I'm kinda at peace with whatever happens this season...my lowest bar is to just make the playoffs. After that I expect us to get the boot right away, and hopefully that'll force a change. We can't go for the SB this year in our current condition.

Side note: I learned this week that our O-line coach has been fired 9 times, and all his O-lines got worse, smh Had no idea he had that bad of a track record! Needless to say he won't be back next year, lol

It's awful.

Lots of bad posting going on right now. A few need a break already.

Wait, you don't like the Henry runs up the middle for -2 to +2 yards on first down EVERY DAMN TIME?!!?!?

We really only get two chances to get a first down.

Anyone ever done flavor injection for a turkey? Trying it for the first time this year, and seeking opinions/others experiences

We're in a tenuous spot. You wait all year for winter and then we torch like it's nothing. Meanwhile the atmosphere has concepts of a pattern for snow that's perpetually two weeks away.

I understand and feel the frustration but I can’t get with jumping in mid-November. Things change too much, though admittedly it rarely feels like they change positively. I realize this kind of winter doesn’t satisfy you much, but when it can just takes one storm to hit climo, it’s way too early to quit

Just call it “leg” or “lower body” and be done with it

That long range thread is always….

Caps with the sweet W tonight! After the disaster Tampa game, this was a nice bounce back. 

[Interstate]

I love it when MD tips off at midnight 

[Maestrobjwa]

So apparently some think EDC should be fired too...I'm sorry but I don't understand. He is not a bad GM!

[CAPE]

These  kinds of in-game clips are endless.

Maybe Harbaugh has finally seen enough.. Ready to admit that sticking with this guy has been a failure and stop gaslighting?

The OL is NOT good. Especially the guards. He drafted Emery Jones- a raw talent, but knowing he wouldn't be available anytime soon coming off surgery. What other moves did he make to improve the line? He was also gaslighting about how improved Faalele was, will get better, etc. Why did he not replace Warhop given his track record? His franchise QB is paying the price for the piss-poor line play.

Also did nothing to address the OL issues leading up to the trade deadline. To be clear, I don't think he should be fired but these are the reasons some think he should go.

Yeah but that's kinda dumb to say fire him for that. Failure on the OL is not a fireable offense for crying out loud. Do people realize how monumental of a change that would be? There are other parts of this team EDC did a great job with drafting and building. (Even trades he made on defense helped the pass rusher not be AS awful and freed up KH) You can say he royally screwed up on the line without jumping all the way over there. People don't know what a bad GM actually looks like, lol And EDC is not what is preventing us from winning a SB: Harbaugh is.

Now, an aside about the trade deadline: You don't see OLs traded very often that time of year--it seems like teams are less willing to break up a line even in a losing season.

Even so...he needed to do more in the off-season. But I suspect it's gonna be different this coming off-season because Lamar is probably gonna demand it before signing anything!
