truth on hold

Damn, thats unfortunate. Feel bad for the guy. Also as a fan wanted to see him play. Incredible athlete

even if we miss playoffs 9&7, kinda hate to say it, but 9 & 7 will be considered a successful season

In that case, Greg Hardy

Its easy to say "take shots down field" but Orton on most playa against Denver had no time and he doesn't have the ability to buy time with his legs. EJ does but he's been benched

"Marvin Lewis remains on the apology trail. The Bengals coach offered up a quick mea culpa on Monday night after he called Cleveland Brownsstarting quarterback Johnny Manziel a "midget" during a radio interview. On Tuesday, Lewis issued a second apology, this one more expansive in nature and directed toward both Manziel and height-challenged individuals who were offended by his choice of words." https://twitter.com/...5299715/photo/1 http://www.nfl.com/n...ensitive-remark

With that high center of gravity no wonder the thing flipped

I think EJ can vary his trajectory more than kyle. Overall accuracy was his problem

Its weird isnt it. Almost like a birth defect. I'm not a big personal trainer advocate, but this guy could use some one-on-one training to see what he can do to improve leg strength and flexibility.

This is getting silly now. How many points they're scoring at home

You're not seeing a history from Syracuse, bucs and now bills? Its there I'll let you google it for yourself

no way, pats are rolling and getting contributions from all their weapons. they dont need williams, nor would they want to risk a distraction when they're on a roll this late in the season

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000440982/article/mike-pettine-not-ready-to-name-browns-starting-qb pettine telegraphing he's going w/ Manziel next week "Won't announce my decision until I've spoken with both players" is what a boss says when someone is getting fired ... in this case Hoyer Also says "obviously leaning that way" about making a change given the offense's performance only problem buddy it's at least 1 week too late

Yeap, it's true, in this case we have the rare peek into what happened when their strategy worked out. We stopped Denver 3 and out, got the ball back, scored a TD, and due to less than a minute left and no timeouts, we were forced into the super low probability onside kick. Yeah carpenter botched it, but many do and most don't work out. on 4th and 2 I would have audibled Goodwin out wide, and if the coverage looked attractive I would have gone deep to him ... go for a quick 7 to really shake things up and leave plenty of time to kick to denver. that's what winning teams do, that's a Steelers type maneuver. if I didnt like the coverage I would have gone with the called short yardage play, which has something like a 2/3rds chance of success (i dont have 4th and 2 stats, but 4th and 1 is 66%, I cant imagine 4th and 2 is that far off http://eaglesrewind....t-on-4th-and-1/)

I wonder if it's lack of leg strength/flexibility causing him to use all arm accounting for the flat ball

He's not a natural risk taker. Just as not going for it then was the wrong call, going for it on 4th and 6 from 44 in q1 was wrong call too. We aren't built for the gimme 6 yards when we want like a pats or Denver, for that matter. The D had just held off manning on a short field after the Sammy fumble, it was wrong to risk putting them in that same position on the very next Denver possession. Marrone is not a natural risk taker. But that's fixable when examining the odds. I thought this team said it was going to be more data and analytics driven, but their decision making isn't showing it.

He throws a flat ball. I think this is why he can be effective on medium routes where you have to fit in traffic and don't want too much air underneath it. But on long routes where you need some more arc to get it over defenders but also drop vertically into wr's hands, his flat trajectory leads to over throws. His misses on mid routes are when the flat trajectory nose dives (think paper airplane) like the pick on attempted pass to woods yesterday.

First game against bears is only one of note I remember

But was he on IR?

Go for it was right call. Odds of picking up first down are much greater than recovering onside kick

When / how was he injured? I thought hed been healthy scratch

They used to be able to count on me for a number of visits/year, but now i can't remember last time i went there. Must have been more than 6 months ago. Think I'm just sick of their same old bland tasting offerings. Can't imagine they'll ever really get me back as a customer. ........ McDonald’s Corp.

7-8-1 Losses to GB and NE, tie against Raiders

Also the announcers never even commented on them like "yeah and there's Williams holding, that's blatant, he should know better". Dead silence after both. Youd think 40 yard pentalties that take a team out of FG range would get more explanation and attention

I wish he made the safe assumption that a bogus call was going to be made somewhere on that play anyway, and just drilled manning

if that's the case then i have no idea what they called, maybe they got the # wrong
