Ok, guys. Frank has stopped drinking and is serious about this season. I can’t stop drinking for more than 8hrs at a time so Clark’s abstinence is notable and impressive. He and Andy had a heart to heart, shared some cheeseburgers (Frank is probably now also vegan and went Impossible Burger), chugged some Mr. Pibb, and came to an understanding.
Watch his presser from today. It’s probably one of the most real and honest things I’ve seen from a player. If you’re rooting against Frank Clark after that you’re probably either repressing some demons in your life or are related to Red Dawg.
This is a safe space to celebrate Frank Clark this season. 8 sack minimum. Let’s build this guy up rather than choosing to spend the season breaking him down.
Join me on the Shark bandwagon. There’s blood in the water.
And the obligatory: keep doubting Frank fucking Clark. [Reply]

I think we may see Jones at DE more than we expect. Why not have Saunders/Williams/Nnadi do some almost 2-gap stuff to jam up the interior then utilize Gay and Bolton blitzing the A gaps on occasion. [Reply]

You think Spags is going to blitz Hurts and that OL?
I kinda expect the opposite. At least early on. [Reply]

Hurts isn't a fast processor and doesn't operate well under pressure. Why wouldn't you blitz him?
Rattle his cage early. Get him off his spots and make him throw off platform with a compromised shoulder. And again, Hurts and his 4.6 YPC doesn't scare me - flush his ass and let him try to scramble; kid's worse at it than Mahomes is.
I'd probably send an extra man 30-40% of the time in this game, though obviously game script could alter that somewhat.
The ONLY way Hurts has a chance to beat us is if he has time to sit and survey while Brown and Smith use their speed to find space. Or Goedert gets himself open over the middle.
They all counted me out but my dogs. The respect and love from your teammates outweighs all the hate you get from the opposition. I hit rock bottom and climbed back up to the top in a 2 year span. Never say never, just do that shit! pic.twitter.com/IcHj7TNi3u
