I disagree, I don't see that as his biggest issue and I really only see him doing that on deep patterns when he hasn't created separation. I'd go so far as to say, he hasn't or the team hasn't used his basketball background enough, especially in the red zone. IMO, he's not athletic enough to run the type of routes that create separation. I.E. the dig route. I've seen him practicing the curl and comeback routes, so I know he's working on his footwork. It's just not fully translating. He may not have a single special trait. I'm thinking work ethic is the most important thing he'll have, for a chance to be a good receiver.

You are saying technique but what troubles me about Keon is that he lacks athleticism in his route running. I think he can get better too, but I'm worried about him being more than just an average NFL receiver. The issue is his footwork. Almost every college wide receiver needs to work on technique because you can't have the same success in the NFL as college without it. For example a speed guy will just rely on that until he improves his technique, if he in fact does improve. Athleticism is a tough thing to acquire. It appears Keon has the "want to", so hope springs eternal.

I see you 10th Mountain.

We're not worthy.

I'm not ready to say this is true without seeing it. Cook is really good and you're undervaluing him, at least to a point. He's not easily replaceable, he's that good.

It's a tough situation. If you make it more difficult for women to come out, as you said, less will. However, as we've tried to make it easier, the doors been opened for false accusations. Without penalty for the false accusations, then the accused are the only ones affected. I would hope we're past the point that women should be afraid of their abusers or coming out or being labeled something ridiculous. It seems clear to me the message of, if you're raped it's okay to bury the people that did it. I think we're safe enough from that, that we can start to punish false accusations.

You finally got to use a word you memorized in a sentence.

Stop adding words to draw attention away from your position. We know why you think it's Beane.

Yet you took it as an opportunity to agree that you think it's Beane and not McD stopping the Superbowl. What's wrong with you? Own it. I know you said that, that's why I said you did.

You do you, and deny things you say. "So I do, and long have, fallen more on the side of we lack elite difference makers rather than "our coaches are the problem." Ultimately players are more important than coaches, always have been, always will be." You didn't come close to saying, it's more than just as simple as blaming the GM. I totally disagree with your belief, that it's more on the GM and lack of players than McD.

We must afford Gunner the opportunity to use a bunch of tangled words to blame Beane. Yes, when McD's defense still sucked with pro bowler Edmunds.

Id add a heck of a special teams player too. Not real easy to find guys as willing as he was.

This seems like a Toohill signing to me. Nothing burger

Did you miss the Kyle Orton year?

To me it's coaching as a whole. The Eagles would have smoked us with that game plan. McD is excellent. He's about togetherness, community, toughness, accountability, brotherhood and all these admirable things. He and his staff are game plan morons against staffs that it's their strength.
