Mr. Reliable played his ass off today.

He broke two tackles and carried a defender for a first down we absolutely wouldn’t have otherwise gotten. On a third and 17 he catches a 10-yard pass and does everything he can, including taking a hit to the head from a piece of poo Redskins player, in his all-out effort to get a first.

1) I hope Greg is OK. 
2) I hope he doesn’t go out like this. 
3) In the event that’s it, damn man. Thank you for everything.

I would add this in the same vein...

I know we complain about Marty stuffing the IR, but if he were to put Olsen on injured reserve tomorrow I'd have no issue with it.

Just b/c Hurney actually puts a guy that should go on IR on IR, even I won't call that stuffing the IR.  He's still gonna stuff it, but an injured player is an injured player.  I can call it straight when necessary.

I didn't see the game but saw "highlights" of it including this hit. Ryan Anderson definitely deserves to get suspended for a game or two for that intentional hit. Made me sick to see Olsen instantly fall the way he did. Greg's leadership over the years, even during losing seasons, has been tremendous and I'd really hate to see him go out this way.

I hate to see him go out like this too, but I think the "Hollywood ending" ship has sailed.

Sad to say that's true for any veteran who's not coming back next year, and I feel like there's a few of them.

Also I wish TD wound up with a better team in the AFC... Baltimore or Houston, KC, etc. (not the Pats). Too bad he won’t even get a shot at the playoffs this year, he deserves a ring as much as any active player who doesn’t have one, right up there with Fitzgerald.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      Nope Still missing it. Let's try this a different way... You have two quarterbacks from schools that ran the same kind of offense - maybe even two from the same school - on a given team (not necessarily the Panthers). One is designated the starter while the other is named the backup. Why?

      yeah, pretty sure boss.....when things match and fit in the NFL.....the results then show it.  and when they don't, well, the results show that as well.  Bryce doesn't fit.   *but I get why late season and wants to argue with everyone Mr. Scot has also turned into a please don't talk to me about stats guy as well.  Given, the stats that reflect offensive productivity work against all your present arguments.

      Yeeeah...stats and rankings have zero to do with a discussion of scheme and skill set match. Maybe look up definitions of style vs ability and see if that helps. At this point, you've basically had three different people explain to you where you're wrong, but rather than addressing any of those statements, you're just resorting to straight deflection.  You don't get it. Either that or you're acting like you don't get it so that you can avoid the discussion because it's not going well for you. (that wouldn't surprise me either) 😄 Sme result either way, I suppose.
