Shaq

I don’t want to seem cold but he was the worst player on the field today. By far. If he was going to be emotional about his mom and unable to concentrate (and I feel terrible for him regarding that) then he shouldn’t be playing. How could we not recognize this? At the end of the day we need to win games and if a guy is going to be a liability because of a family tragedy, then he needs to step away from the team until he can come back and play at his normal level of play.

While kinda rough to say out loud, not wrong really.  Shaq had his worst game of the season, and it was obvious after a few series that his head wasnt in the game.  It's not a benching when he has a legit reason for his head to not be in the game, he needed a break.  Fwiw, losing a loved one can affect you in weird ways.  My brother passed away 3 weeks ago, the first few days I was fine and went to work alright, but for some reason like 3 days after he passed it smashed me like a ton of bricks.  You cant really forsee how the grieving process will play out exactly and everyone grieves differently.

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
