Agee. The jersey burners have every right to protest their displeasure in any lawful way they choose, just like the nfl players did. If the players/teams didn't want any backlash they should have protested outside their nfl working duties and protested on their own without representing themselves as nfl players.
No one is giving Beane enough credit. He is a master conspirator. It's all been planned out the moment he took office. How to tank but still sell the season to gullible fans?
1. Don't sign key free agents in off season-Too expensive
2. Replace above in draft - cheaper and younger
3. Keep mediocre QB as best chance to win
4. Hype #1 wr before preseason.
5. Work out deal with future HOF to sign for a week and then retire
6. Get everyone excited for playoff run
6. Sell lots of tickets
7. Get everyone to buy in
8. Spring the trap and roll in the tank.
9. There's more to come.
The only way I see a positive on these moves is IF we are able to come away with a franchise QB next year or two. Our chances are now increased but there is no guarantee.
Overall I like what I saw.
His best pass is the shuffle pass -awesome! No arm strength problem there.
His receivers did not help him out much -drops and not fighting for balls.
Adequate scrambler.
For the most part good under duress.
I think he's got a shot to be a starter.
I don't post much but this just sucks. Reggie and Shaq were supposed to be stud players and instantly upgrade our defence and contribute for years to come. This year our D is no better and with the type of injuries they have can they ever recover enough to be the same impact players they were projected to be?
I have no problem with his statements. this isn't feel good, nicey nicey pop warner. This is the NFL and something he has worked his entire life for. He has the potential to be the best and wants to be the best. Give him his targets.
