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.

    • What do you suggest we make threads on? We have the worst record in the NFL since Tepper bought the team and this staff and a majority of these players will be gone next season.
    • Too much is made about the trade that never was. At that time Burns was the ONLY legit pass rusher we had on the team. If you had got rid of him you who was going to supply the pass rush? I think at that time he was viewed as cornerstone of the team going forward. Even now he's still only 27. And, we still have not added a pass rusher to replace him. I would have made more sense to try get get them to take Derrick Brown. Burns has more sacks in a season than Brown has had in 5 seasons. Those picks would have been in different years so we would have only had one extra pick in each year. And, let's be honest. You see how this team has drafted over the years. We used #1 picks in Bryce Young and XL. Do you really think those picks would have made a difference on this team? 
    • Been done. Very limited upside. Most of his positives are based in nostalgia.  It was always going to be a rough ride for whoever signed up for it considering the situation.
