We're 2-0 you feckless avalanches of wilting children

Recommended Posts

sweet jesus god, the gameday thread and chat was like sitting through a hailstorm of brat tears and 49ers fans punting their year-old flatbrims back into closets filled with pokemon paraphanalia and drake posters. i try not to hate on our fans because we all have our cohort of insufferable milquetoasts, but god damn from cam's first incompletion we had gutless shrimp calling for derek anderson to start.

 

instead, cam threw for 281 yards and a TD, coming up aces in critical situations on multiple drives. avant caught a touchdown. defense balled out with multiple sacks (including 2.5 from hardy backup mario addison in the waning moments of the game.) philly brown looked great. stew was effective enough, with a modest 3 ypc but a TD. offensive line handled suh for the most part, and the secondary handled calvin johnson for the most part, two of the best players in the league at their position. shula called an effective second half, adjusting to burgeoning weaknesses in the secondary

 

 

 

 

….and now we're 2-0, without our starting back, right end, and an injury-stifled quarterback. so please stop being giant perspectiveless baby posters on this forum for the next 14 weeks while we finish out this season kicking ass. we're having too much fun for your bullshit.

I honestly wonder about some of the folks in those game day threads, and how miserable their lives must be, being that negative.

 

i can see doubting in the fourth in a close game, but there's always the ones calling it over in the 2nd

i'm not personally a fan of rah-rah "believe" threads, because they tend to leave no place for objective, rational criticism of the team, which has plenty of merit. but god damn the perspectiveless children are absolutely unbearable, because they're incapable of offering objective, rational criticism and their knee jerk reactionaryisms destroy the attempts of everyone's collective experience.

I've been a Red Sox fan my whole life.

This is a damn good football team.

I wish I could pie you more than I did.  Chicken Littles were in full force at one point in the game,  we were never getting routed, and we dominated the lions.  Could not physically be prouder of this team.

    • I'm probably one of those posters, but I make those posts because there are too many things going on that don't make sense. For instance, how does a RB that does something that hasn't been done in 14 years immediately get reverted back to 2nd string, and it takes a leadership council to make him the starter when he's averaging 3x the YPC? Your average fan shouldn't be screaming that for 2 weeks before the coach sees it. And that's one of many.  What you're seeing is frustration that we could be better, that we should be better, if our owner, FO, and coaches could do things that are so painfully obvious to even the most basic fan 
    • Cowboys. Patriots. Couldn't ask for two bigger villains.
    • I think we're all struggling with what things are right now and what they have been. It's like getting ready to have bandages removed after a long period of injury. The healing, the new growth, they aren't going to be pretty, there's going to be some ongoing issues for a while at best and there's every chance that we're going to have to go back into the bandage situation all over again. And that sucks. But it's also a place where maybe, just maybe, the recovery is going to finally start happening. The bad days will be getting behind us.  It's not going to happen this year, but I believe from what I see that this year is showing that improvement. We focus on the QB because that's what all the pundits focus on, because it's the flashiest and most heralded position on the field. No one wants to put out a tweet about how a center is holding down their job and anchoring a line. They rarely celebrate that blocking tight end or special teams gunner. That fourth CB on the depth chart? Not a mention. And yet, those guys are the kind that we've been building here, we're building the lunch pail guys AND finding some future stars.  Is Bryce one of them? Might be a cornerstone of the team in the future as the second QB, might somehow just show out to end the season. Might flame out like many expect. But if that uncertainty is all we concentrate on, we're just going to miserably look at this team and maybe miss out on some solid green shoots that are finally beginning to poke through into the sunlight.
