at what point do you just bench tre boston to send a message

Both Boston and Whitehead need to be benched and don't need to be out there unless injury forces them out there for the rest of the season.  It's fine, they can still be mentors and "leaders" from the bench, but they suck and aren't helping on the field.  Give those snaps to the young guys.

Also, sounds like Rhule has reached his limit.  He just specifically called out somebody for not doing their assignment on the 98 yard run and said we're not good enough for guys to not do their job.  He also repeatedly said, "We can't play like that.  We can't coach like that."

Panthers aren’t winning another game with or without Boston so who honestly cares it makes no difference 

Well you can give guys that try, the experience. Boston and Whitehead are taking away from other players. Who cares if we win another game, get guys experience that will help out in the future. My god it can’t hurt.

My concern is that Tre is one of "their guys". I can't see any other reason that someone else hasn't been given a shot by now. Whitehead was losing snaps to Taylor before he got hurt.

Is a legit concern...

My hope is, they only left him in there to this point bc they felt we still had a shot to make the playoffs this season and he had the experience...  so they favored that over development and risking someone being worse.  I think it's safe to say now, that matrix has intersected simultaneously now knowing this team isn't making the playoffs AND it's clear no one is going to be worse than him at this point...  so I expect a change soon...  if there isn't I am also concerned.

The fact that we are discussing Boston is half my problem. Why are we constantly blaming Boston when most of these issues are on the Linebacker. On most run plays 1-2 other players have to fail before it is Boston’s responsibility. We got spoiled by great Line backer play and now we are paying for it.

I'm just glad Matt Rhule is such a good coach we know exactly who the bad players are and need to be replaced so we can adjust our mock drafts accordingly

I'm not sure if you are serious, His style is more entertaining than Riveras for sure but some flaws are now starting to show up. He is over using the college tricks.

Not a great argument the issue is far from isolated to the run game...

The NFL starts in the trenches and we aren't winning the trenches on either side of the ball. Rhule could be a mad genius and use every trick in the book, he can do his college style till the cows come home. If you don't win the trenches you don't win the NFL.

I mean 10 sacks.... we are just barely better than...

True, I guess my argument is that I expect my tackles or linebackers to shed blocks. Why do I constantly rely on my safeties or corners to make the tackles in the run game.

The offensive line is literally offensive, We have some talented youth on the defensive line but lack depth.

You're right. 

The defensive line is as talented as anyone else but learning on the job

Offensive line needs more talent

    • If I could pie more, I would. Fantastic 
    • Well bois, we gave the Devils their due! Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery... The jersey boys have been trying to jack our steeze for a few years now. They've followed our blueprints and studied our tape. Every offseason, they pounce on our sloppy seconds in a Newark minute. Quick with the puck, ferocious on the forecheck and stifling team defense. Down to the colors, this is this closest we'll come to having to play ourselves in Ole Stanley's Hockey Hoedown. As the postseason began, Rod stood flexing in the gym mirror and saw this guy staring back from the void... (Shutters) When beating us at our game didn't work, Timo and the Tri-State Trash tried to tango instead. Outside of a bitchass cheapshot on Freddie, that poo didn't work either. Their goon squad was getting wrecked by our bantam weights. As much as we all wanted to see Svechy or Staal Bunyan literally break someone in half after the Great Dane went down, they didnt need to. Our munchkins were monsters! Jarvis obliterating giants at the blue line, Logan laying the Stank on dudes twice his size and Blakers blasting Timo into next season. It was beautiful to see! (Side note: Does JBlo wear lead weights under his pads? 170lbs shouldn't be able to hit that hard!) We closed it out in 5, for the gentleman's sweep. Only team in the league to win a series in each of the past 7(?) seasons! And, this was supposed to be a rebuilding year... Onto the awards: Key To The Series : 6 for 19 - .316% IT FINALLY WORKED!!! MVP : 16/180 g/s - .911 save% - 2.53 gaa Seriously, without this dude, we would've won in 3! (Trust me bro) 3rd Star : 6/94 g/s - .936 save % - 1.59 gaa The Great Dane   2nd Star : 3 g - 5 a - +1 - 20:38 toi/g - 18 hits - 3 bs - 58.1% fo 3 PP goals and the 2OT series winning goal! WOOAAAHHH NELLY!!!!   And, your 1st Star of the series : 5 g - 1 a - +3 - 16:48 toi/g - 16 hits - 1 bs - 1 tk - 50% fo Zero, I repeat, zero penalty minutes for the series! MISSSTAAAHHH SVEEECHNIKOOOV!!!!!! Onto The Next: Now, we wait for the Habs to make it a nasty 7 game slog, while we recuperate. And, hopefully, get Nikishin, and some of the other black aces some real peactice time. We are gonna need those guys at some point. Because, if you think the Devils were dirty, hoooo boy, wait till you see what's next...
    • I don’t watch college football anymore (used to be Stanford STH but meh), but my wife is Hawaiian and her favorite color is purple, so I guess I knew Tet was my new favorite player to root for when he came out in a purple suit and lei and threw up the Shaka.
