Golden is showing us why he's only a decent player for ST's. Sims coming in off the bench and shoving the ball up their collective asses. :lol:

3rd stringer carving us up. Looks just like the way we played last year. I hope this is only preseason rust.
Howard Griffith had to resort to chop-blocking him during the 1997 AFC Championship Game. An incredulous Kirkland asked Griffith, “Why do you have to use cheap tactics like chop-blocking?” Griffith replied “Why do you have to be a 300-pound linebacker?”

Some REAL shit.

hell, Ben doesnt play defense. I think we are in the shit NOW. I know that the hope is that Ben would have led to a score, but we learned last year that it doesnt always work that way. The D has got to freakin improve.

Better take the rest of the starters out. They've already embarrassed themselves enough.

The middle of the field has been WIDE OPEN. Safeties and ILBs not getting it done. Zone is carved up.

still havent got Direct TV back. Are we doing better? Is Keith Butler dialing some things up? I hope a 3rd string QB isnt going to keep carving us up.

Almost posted something similar when Williams gave up that first down earlier.

I see the tactic we will see all year from opponents. Throw at Cockrell.

The ball was tipped at the LOS, caused the incompletion

I'm wondering if they are all putting just 70% effort today. Humiliating and beyond disappointing. Certainly not the momentum I anticipated.
