Reids dirty hit on Watson


Paa Langfart

Recommended Posts

Let's be 100% honest here.

In all likelihood, Eric wanted to get his hands on Watson because of the Twitter stuff.  Could have done a better job at that, obviously.

On the flip side, the only reason this is even a fugging thread is because of his views.  If it was Colin Jones, you would "love his intensity."

It's time to get over it.

The guy lacks restraint.  That type of tackle should never be made, not even with the Championship on the line, much less a meaningless preseason game.   It's not the first time he's done something like this and I wouldn't be surprised with a 1 game suspension.

Yeah so what's your source on this?  It looks like you're making some assumptions about Reid because he kneels.  If you think Reid is kneeling for his own attention then it says more about you than him.

If Reid was all about Reid, he wouldn't be taking part in a movement that's cost him a lot of time and money, and put him in the cross hairs of so many critics; he'd just be collecting a fat paycheck. You see what you want to see. I see a guy who's a thumper, something we've sorely missed in our secondary. If he wasn't part of the anthem protests, you wouldn't have even mentioned that hit.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
