Keep it in the COVID thread.

Sorry, this excrement moves around so much, I see a post and answer it.

Regarding this team being depressing, we're two games in. Last year we got better as the year went along, but we can't dig another giant hole or the second half will be garbage time again. Not expecting this, but a couple of our best seasons started 0-2, including 1998 before Vinny came in for Foley. Just saying it's early, not that is isn't terrible.
So it turns out, Italian Seafood was right an everyone can go freak themselves.

Counterpoint: it didn't, the opposition just got worse.

A little of both, but if we didn't play better we wouldn't have beaten any of them.

This is why we shouldn't be totally depressed.  We don't just have a left tackle; we've got the left tackle.

Becton is my favorite pick since Brick. Yes, that includes Darnold.

It blows my mind how good he has been.

It's a real shame that he is on our atrocious offense, so he won't get the credit he deserves. Even if he actually is the best rookie at the end of the season there is almost no chance that he is given the chance to win a OROY award as an Olineman

Still, having the QB and the LT is a huge head start, even if we do rebuild yet again. And Q is a big piece, you start at the line of scrimmage and the QB.

This is awesome and gives us some hope. One of the most important positions looks to be setup with a cornerstone piece that has all-pro potential. Imagine giving this guy a half way decent guard next to him? Douglas knocked this pick out of the park.

Honestly, every time a run is called that is not behind Becton is a wasted opportunity.

We've got plenty of run plays behind Becton, we just didn't get to them.  You don't go to your strongest plays unless everything else has worked first.
