There was heat on this in the off season. Will be even more heat this next up coming off season if the defense doesn't keep Henry and the tacks in check. They have to split the divisional series overall IMHO for him and Caldwell to be safe.

If they fall 1 - 5 in the AFC South? Baalke has to take the hit for it. Khan already entertained Spielman and opened up that can of worms for the media to go fishing with moving forward with Baalke.

I think you're on to something. The primary task this offseason was to fix the run D and get Trevor some receiving help. That's where the vast majority of our cash went. At present, and later, at the end of the year, when we look at our performance, did these goals get met?

For everyone looking for heads to roll, I expect there to be disappointment. Trevor's arrow is pointing up. The Run D is better (so far, but 2 games against D. Henry alone can tank that ranking). If he and Pederson are able to work well together and continue to build toward Doug's vision, I highly doubt that any costumes, outcry, or other such gestures from the fanbase are going to force Shad's hand.

I have never had faith in Baalke.

But I don’t think “dark days are ahead”. Trevor and Doug are the right pieces to turn this ship around. Today was a really bad game all around but it’s not doom and gloom. If Trevor had torn his ACL, then it truly would be “dark days ahead.” But, it appears he is ok.

this right here.

And anyone who wants a WR over a lineman after watching that hit is gonna be calling for the GM's head again this time next season when TLaw is still getting battered.

How he recovered from that is nothing short of a miracle. Had that happened to anyone else, they would be an IR listing tonight.

The way he twisted I figured at the very least that his ankle/foot was in danger.
