Not Shula. Not Rivera's fault.

You all won't like this at all. I don't care. Not going to lie in the first quarter with the way we started off on offense and defense. I turned to my wife and said fug. We are going to lose this damn game. We definitely were not prepared.

 

 

HOWEVER. Even with saying that. I just watched our last 2 drives where we had PLENTY of drives and PLENTY of options to win that damn game. We were in position not ONCE but TWICE to win this game. Even without Luke on defense. The defense stepped up and made a stop even when the Eagles ran that hey lets hate on Shula offense. Looked real damn familiar didn't it. 

 

I will tell you what lost us this game and I hate to say it. Call it on play calling all ya want but overall the decisions ON the field are made by ONE person and one person only. Look no further than Cameron Newton. He had the chance to win that damn game and completely effed it away. I remind you fugs I have 3 different #1 jerseys all of the ridiculously expensive types. 

 

I love cam and I will always have that man's back. But the decisions and the throws and pure on the field awareness completely let us down Thursday night and he was put in a position to win that game and further cement his legacy amongst the greats. He failed us. Even when our backs were against the wall and all signs pointed to nope. We still could have and should have won that game. 

He will bounce back but stop it with all of the secondary same old same blame game and take it for what it was.

How can you start your post by saying "we weren't prepared" and then not blame Rivera and shula? 

Then followed by... 

I'll always have Cam's back while throwing him under the bus. 

There's no excuse for Shula to be dialing up nothing but deep bombs when already past midfield with over three minutes on the clock. Every other team is taking advantage of soft coverage in that situation to pick up 5-10 easy yards a play. But not Shula, let's chuck it deep. The man is an indefensible idiot.

That's the thing. You guys act like there was only ONE option on the field for those throws. Nevermind the other 3 options Cam could have gone with... That's all on Shula though right. Because there was a deep play option and Cam decided to go to that route inoted is all on Shula... come on man.

That is the definition of not seeing the bigger picture. 

 

I'll go with the notion that the qb is the general and has multiple options whether that's go with choice a b or c.. heck with Cam he even has the choice roll out or make something happen with his feet.. 

 

That's not what he chose though.

Let's blame Cam when he literally had to say "screw Shula" and put his body on the line for what should've been an insane touchdown and fix up other mistakes.

Let's blame Cam for our crappy run blocking and forcing him to throw 52 times. Gee no wonder his arm gave out.

Let's blame Cam for literally being our offense.

Do any of you remember what I said prior to this game? 

 

There were a few very specific things I was worried about going into this game and they all ended up coming to fruition which almost makes me more mad than the fact we had 2 chances to still win it at the end and we blew it

    • That is definitely the down side of all this--on paper, I would offer up a second rounder for him if he passed my interviews.  He has already gone through (seriously?) a treatment program for gambling addiction.  I just see him as a first round talent that would could get with a second rounder.  If I liked Bryce and felt good about paying him $50m per, I would not touch him.  If he regresses or stays the same--he is going to expect to be paid.  Sorsby, in my view, has a better long-term future as an NFL QB.  He is big, mobile, has good arm strength, and makes wise decisions (on the field) with the football.  I think he is a perfect solution for the backup qb position and insurance for Bryce should he get injured or suck.  
    • Hard to say--they are very unpredictable--this article came out last night---after our comments:  (ESPN)   How has the NFL approached NCAA players with gambling violations in the past? David Purdum, sports betting reporter: Quarterback Hunter Dekkers and wide receiver Kayshon Boutte were found to have committed gambling violations while playing college football, and both were allowed to pursue NFL careers. Dekkers was the projected starting quarterback at Iowa State but was ruled ineligible ahead of the 2023 season after an investigation found he had bet on at least one game involving the Cyclones (among other wagers that violated NCAA bylaws). The bet was just $15 on Iowa State to beat Oklahoma State in a 2021 game in which he did not play, but it led to the end of his Division I career. He played one season at Iowa Western Community College in 2024 before signing with the Saints as an undrafted free agent, and he spent last season on the practice squad. Boutte was arrested in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, in January 2024 on charges of underage betting while at LSU. The arrest came roughly eight months after he had been drafted in Round 6 by the Patriots, and the charges were ultimately dropped. According to police, Boutte placed more than 8,900 wagers from April 2022 to May 2023, including betting on at least 17 college football games -- at least six of which involved LSU during that span. The NFL did not discipline Boutte.
    • He did himself more harm than good by engaging in this ridiculous legal battle. One it brought to light how much gambling he was actually doing and two it made him a very unlikable figure from a public perspective because he was challenging the perceived sanctity (lol) of college sports. Then to make things worse his lawyers convinced a very stupid and very gullible old boomer judge to agree with him. Now he’s a lightning rod entering the league and that’s not a good place to be.
