Now there are bigger fish to fry tonight but don't let him overall get lost in it

he once against showed he is probably the dumbest player on our team. He is gonna cost us a game too if he stays on the field.

He tried to scoop Philly's fumble. On the 3rd down stop prior to the fumble he easily could of been flagged and let Pitt keep driving with dumb shoving after the play, went offsides on the FG with Horton, etc.

Philly should have fell on it first his fault all the way around

No doubt.

But it would have been nice for non rookie who has been here for years.....who was in position to save us from the rookie's blunder to of done it. When you play rookies you depend on vets to help cover some of there mistakes. He thinks like a rookie.....and he will get us in a later game

I get that people like him because he's physically gifted and we have this affinity for unheralded players and whatever. I'm not trying to poo on anyone's player crush. But he's an old rookie, he makes the very same mistakes he made when he first arrived and appears to have the instincts and football IQ of a tree stump.

 

No one on defense exactly covered themselves with glory today, so not trying to pick on just him, but I really don't see why we keep him around.

I honestly think we should cut Norman. Cason was terrible though so we may have to put up with it. Mel should've had a TD thrown on him but he got a gift from the refs. Bene shows promise but I really don't know about him being a quality starter on the outside. Should stick to nickel for now. We really need to address CB/S in the draft early and we REALLY REALLY need Hardy back.

just fall on the freakin ball...I don't get it.  This is coached from pee wee on...fall on the freakin ball.  Had he covered it up, we might have won this game.  Instead, we get embarrassed.  We may not see Philly in a while...Stephen Hill, come on down. 

Also, plant your fuging feet on the 10 and don't move, let the ball go over you.  Philly is a mental midget.

    • If you think the NFL or NBA are worried about lawsuits or something like officiating scandals bringing down their empires, I think you're giving them way too much credit.  Go watch the documentary on Tim Donaghy in the NBA and who was involved and what he did.  One of the guys he worked with is still one of the league's top trusted officials, especially for playoff games.  IIRC, they have records showing he was the person Donaghy exchanged phone calls with the most during his time fixing games.  And his reputation is beyond horrible...  but he's untouchable.  I also encourage you to go watch DeMaurice Smith's Breakfast Club interview.  He laid out how for fans, we just know these organizations as a singular, public entity - like THE Carolina Panthers, or THE Dallas Cowboys- but, in actuality, he said that is the public-facing identity of an umbrella company comprised of countless smaller businesses and LLCs.  He is tasked with trying to audit their books, and he said these organizations are structured in such a way that even HE can't ever know what they truly make in a year.  It's impossible.  And now, this is just me speculating on top of that, but you think the league's themselves are structured similarly?  They are untouchable.  IIRC, they are recognized legally as "entertainment" organizations, thus protecting themselves in cases where integrity would come into question.  They are protected, layer, behind layer, behind layer.  Betting works because there is some degree of control that ensures the house wins more than it loses, by a lot.  The short of it is, "Give them bread and circuses" and all that jazz.  These leagues operate with total impunity.  Again, it's not just because I'm a Panthers fan, but even if I wasn't and I watched Superbowl 50 without a dog in the fight I would walk away feeling like that outcome was controlled and influenced HEAVILY to where the Panthers were not given a level playing field.  The same poo happens every Sunday to teams playing those blue blood franchises and ones with intriguing storylines. 
    • This Chuba isn't getting traded, but Rico very well could be in a few weeks if he keeps playing well in a tandem backfield with Chuba also playing well. I think we'd end up going with a two headed monster in that case, but with Rico being on a one year deal, it does open up the possibility of a contending team offering up a decent pick for him.  Depending on the recovery of Hampton, I could see someone like the Chargers giving us a 4th for him if they think he could put them over the top, he would fit nicely in a Harbaugh system I think. If it comes to that, we need to make that trade, as I can't see any way we re-sign Rico with all our other needs and getting Brooks back too.  And he's not going to get a contract big enough to get us any comp picks in return, especially if/when we sign a FA or two ourselves.  So if we're not going to bring him back, the prudent decision would really be to get a draft pick for him at the deadline.
    • It's all about what they do at QB. It's clear the rest of the roster is improving. If they commit long term to Young because he's being carried to wins then we're fuged. I think that's a separate issue to finally being competitive again.  There's no QB in this Draft that's going to ride in on his white horse on day one and save us, so we absolutely shouldn't be playing for Draft position.
