I got nothing here. Makes no sense to me. Had we grabbed him before this game to get info, sure... but afterwards?

Did they make eye contact from the box and the bench? Was it just magic at first sight?

Someone explain this one to me. Up until now, I could kind of see a reason or two for some of these moves. This one has me flummoxed.

By my count this is the tenth TE we've had on the roster since the draft. We definitely needed a third TE, per Ron we were shorthanded when we even had 3. Now after a game without Simonson, it definitely feels like we're going back to the project TE route we saw in preseason.

So glad we didn't draft Hunter Henry. What a bum.

Yea Gettleman I'm sure there's an all-pro corner sitting on the waiver wire that you could've claimed but NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Cromartie is still available.  Don't tell me he's not better than Sack Zanchez and Darryl 'Barely There" Worley.

Pie for "flummoxed."

    • I think Chuba is better in pass pro. I think Chuba does a better job setting up blockers, while Dowdle tends to just want to juke or outrun defenders. He has more big play potential, but probably won't get you the consistent numbers. He'll get you in more 3rd and long situations. Now I'm actually excited to see Etienne get more burn. That kid has big play ability written all over him. And he is NOT a punt returner. 
    • Maybe had you put it that way instead of dismissing the guy as a ‘radio’ I wouldn’t have pushed back. I get that. At the same time, he knows the team, he is brilliant at film diagnosis, highly disciplined and would have the instant respect of any and all players in that locker room. Coaches too probably. It is hard to overstate how good he was and that includes the mental side.  I wouldn’t bet against him. Give him a couple of seasons to get the job down.  I shouldn’t say every, but I bet it is every… OC or DC that got a HC gig has said they weren’t ready for everything that goes with being a HC. Totally different than the job they had been doing, because now they have to deal with everything and they didn’t even know what that was when they started.  edit: I guess a point I am trying to make with him is, you can work your way up through jobs but when you get promoted the job is not just a higher level of the job you were doing, it is a different job requiring new skills.  The failed HC ranks are full of great coordinators for that very reason.  I resist the dogma of you can’t be good at that unless you were good at LB coach or DC.  To me, Wilks wasn’t a real good DC but he somehow understood that HC job intuitively.
