After the Atlanta debacle, and now with cutting Bene, I have finally joined this club...

The leadership they cut from this defense is ridiculous.

I feel for TD and Kuechly. It is like the front office gave up on them and hung them out to dry. Norman, Harper, Tillman, Bene, Dwan and Allen are all gone. CJ seems like he has stepped down from a leadership role too with his treatment/pay cut. Too much pressure put on Kuechly and Davis thanks to the front office.

I hope Bradberry, Worley, Sanchez, Butler, KK, Star, Ealy, Shaq and Boston can become instant leaders. Unfortunately, I do not see that happening.

This looks a lot like the OT and WR debacle started in 2014 that Cam is still having to deal with thanks to the front office.

the cry baby club??

Lol more like acknowledging that G-man screwed up.

Not just Norman, but dumping all the vets in the secondary too, completely relying on rookies going into the season.

Then we get embarrassed through the air in Atlanta, followed by dumping Bene (rather harsh).

It is a complete mess and quite laughable.

Seriously, it doesn't elicit tears, unless those tears are from flabbergasting laughter.

Let's see, Norman wouldn't sign the fair Franchise Tag contract Gettleman put in front of him. Harper is currently sucking in the Taints atrocious defense. Tillman blew out his knee and is playing nowhere because he announced his retirement back in July 2016. Jared Allen is playing nowhere because he retired as a Viking April 2016. Bene has played in 27 games in his career and was hardly team leadership. Dwan Edwards essentially announced his retirement June 2016.

But please, keep blaming Gettleman!

Comes a time when you have to let young guys play and not rely on signing veterans all the time or handing out ridiculous contracts. The only way young guys grow and get better is by struggling and having growing pains. It's not always easy as a fan but worth it once they start learning and reaching their potential. Not everything has to be sunshine and unicorns all the time. We can't expect to have success all the time. True fans understand wait out the hard times because better times are always ahead. I'm not going to cry like so many on this board seem to be doing. It's a fuging game.

Ok Professor, I'll play.

 

Norman refused to sign, and was known to be willing to sit out.

 

Harper was a good leader, bad player. Oh dear, how can we live without that.

 

Tilman retired. But hey, use him to make a point anyway.

 

Bene', 5th round pick that was having trouble rebounding from an injury. Oh no, we are doomed.

 

Dwan. Good depth, but certainly not worth fretting over.

 

Allen, um, he retired. Not going to help us out much out there fishing.

 

So, out of all that leadership you so proudly threw in our faces. Dwan MAY be the only one we could use. Not a very convincing argument their Prof.

 

I love how you make stuff up, just so you can throw shyte at it. "CJ seems to have stepped down from a leadership role". (Like you have one iota of information to make this claim.) And "I hope the kids can become instant leaders." "I just don't see it." Contradict yourself to make yourself sound smarter. I know it isn't Ethics you specialize in.

 

Dude. I love it.

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WUnderhill · Posted

      Yeah not taking that Burns trade was infinitely stupid. We seem to be finally righting the ship but, imo, our biggest issue since Tepper bought the team has been coaches and management having a poor understanding of where our own roster is at. Starting with that idiot Rhule drinking his own kool-aid and thinking he was going to come and take the NFL by storm with Teddy freaking Bridgewater. Could have just kept Cam on the last year of his contract and gone from there but noooo that fat slob had to feel like he was the big man on campus. First round wizard Marty Hurney who, for whatever his faults, has a freaking HOF track record with first round picks, wants to trade up for Hebert but fat fug Rhule says no. Then we kept Rhule for 3 years which is absolutely unbelievable to me and every single year he treated our roster like it was just one player away trading our draft picks for Sam Darnold and Baker Mayfield who have proven since leaving that Matt Rhule was an even bigger idiot of a coach than we thought. We finally seem to understand we are a ways off and trade CMC, but then we don’t take the actual good trade for Brian Burns who was never better than a run of the mill situational pass rusher. Then we botch the self scout of our OL (and team) after Wilks, even though they were bad before Wilks simplified the scheme, thinking they can execute whatever the hell Reich and Brown were trying to do. So we win a couple meaningless games playing dummy ball and Fitterer thinks we’re a player away again. And nobody even considers that having the slowest receiving corps imaginable with Damiere freaking Byrd, who can’t even make it to the season before being injured and cut, as your only hope for speed, coupled with the worst pass blocking OL I’ve ever seen, might lead to titanic levels of disaster. The way Canales and Morgan have been adamant about constantly bringing competition at every position has been refreshing and made a huge difference. I was kind of worried that we had fallen into our old ways leading up to the draft with all the talk of defense only and worried that they might feel the offense was set. Very glad to see they were not complacent on that. My big thing now is I’m still wondering why Evero is still here. I can’t think of a single player who has gotten better under him, and the Broncos defense got better once he left. We’ll see.
