Which is "So if the QB sneak is a viable option, HOW COME YOU NEVER RUN ONE?!?!?!?!?"


This team is doomed if Tomlin AND Haley are to remain.

They complement each other in the worst way. Haley is too stupid to call a QB sneak on 1st and goal from the 6 inch line, and Tomlin is too busy beating his chest to intervene.

If neither of these idiots are going to start being critical of one another, then we are fucked. Glad Ben is being politically vocal about the utter failure that was the AFCCG.

Oh, so Butler gets a pass?!

:roll:

The problem is systemic - focusing on anything more localized than that is missing the mark...

Soon comes the return fire, including the redirected assertion that he's under all this scrutiny because of his race!

:o :evil:


What race is that? The count to potato race? Yeah I'm not crazy about spuds. Tomlin Haley and Butler are all spuds counting to potato.

I picture the two potato twins, Spud Mikey and Spud Keeef, giggling how they will out smart Bellicheat with Zone coverage.

Meanwhile Spud Golfer Haley is such a control freak that 6'5", a biscuit short of 260 pounds, 13 year veteran, $100 million dollar, first ballot HOF Ben can't be trusted to be allowed to take the initiative on his own and do a QB sneak at the 6 inch line?

Death to potatoes. Yes I'm a totally anti count to potatoist, there I said it.

To which Golic appropriately asked, "None of those guys can stay with Chris[b] Fuckin' Hogan?" (emphasis and wording added).

Funny, Clark, while noting that he's not trying to make this a racial thing.....did make note of the Patriots always having these white guys as receivers (Edelman, Hogan, Amendola, Welka).....though differentiating Hogan as being big & fast....unlike the others.





That's what exactly verbatim what I asked in another thread yesterday as well. Unreal.

The DBs didn't even have to stay with Hogan.

After the first three series, it was apparent to everyone but the coaching staff that rough bumps, holding, and flat-out PI were going to be allowed in the game.

Exactly I also noted we could have benefited from the refs keeping their whisltes in the pocket but we cant do that playing soft zone coverage. I'm still so pissed at the level of incompetence to not only come up with that plan but to stubbornly stay with it all game long.

Sean Payton sounds very available and he grew up in PA.

My guess is that Ben would be on the first train out of town...
