The DBO Sign

I want to believe in Slye, but there's been just too many misses.

I get why coaches love the potential... I was at TC and the ball sounds like a rocket leaving his foot... he really does have elite level power for a kicker

But at the end of the day, what does being able to hit a miracle 65 yarder matter when you can't consistently hit the 35-40 yard ones

Not to mention that he literally doesn't ever make those insanely long kicks anyway. Having the leg to do it doesn't matter at all if you can't aim it accurately.

I mean we have a 12-page thread based on a single tweet about Darnold going 19 of 36 lol.

People on fan boards like to complain and panic given the opportunity. Not surprised there's not 12 pages reacting to the defense performing as you would expect it to...

The DBO thing is very cheesy. I don't think it really matters much in terms of positive or negative impacts. It's just cheesy.

If it actually worked, I am down for whatever cheesy gimmick they can come up with. If it doesn't work it just makes them look kind of goofy. I don't care about that. I care about winning.

Oh yeah I ain’t surprised at all, nor am I even complaining or upset by it. I thought it was more funny than anything.

Let me throw in this question...

Do you have an alternative idea to punish dumb mistakes, or would you just stick to good old fashioned "wrath of coach"?

I think dumb mistakes punish themselves at this level. Perfection is because of practice where you screw up. You screw up in live action you get benched or released.

I feel the Defense and Offense need a DBO sticker on the helmet everytime they have to touch the sign. 

Kinda like college in reverse😁. Y'all know how they put stickers on your helmet for great plays?!

if a NFL player keeps screwing up in camp.  I think the best punishment is too send him to the sidelines and let all the guys who are dying for reps take his for awhile.  And then you keep sending him back to the sidelines.  Best "punishement".....is the threat of losing your job and your professional stock taking hits IMO.  

It's professional sports.   And you are dealing with a bunch of grown men who for most part know what a business oriented world it actually is in the NFL.   Most know exactly how disposable they are and can be treated.   The overwhelming majority of the league isn't CMC.

I've seen a fair amount of discussion about this particular coaching tactic, with some liking it and others thinking it's dumb and ineffective.

What's the verdict?

You know it may sound trivial but I like it.  It's embarassing that a pro player has to run a lap but it takes them back to a time where you need to concentrate on what you are doing. 

These guys get paid to play but sometimes they forget the fundementals. 

I love it.

it's a sign and the teams slogan. who really cares?

    • At this point, I think Chubba is the odd man out. I hate that, but I think Dowdle gives us more production and big play ability.  But there is still a lot of football to play.  I think it depends on how much Dowdle will want too.
    • I’ve been anti-trade when it comes to Melo, but the way this season has started, it may be time.  I love his game and he’s a cool dude, but I’m starting to think, if he’s your best player, you’re never going to win anything of significance.  Too many brain farts, too many injuries, and ultimately for as fun and entertaining as he is to watch - his game is indeed a thing of beauty - it just doesn’t translate to wins.  And that’s IF he even plays.  I think it’s time to cash out and maximize the return.  I love Melo, but I think it’s pretty clear what the ceiling is for a team where he is the best player.
    • Every NFL team, college program, hell even HS has numerous "what ifs" that got derailed by injury. It's a brutal sport and half the battle is just getting lucky enough to stay healthy. Doesn't matter how durable you are and how well you take care of your body everyone is one weird hit or awkward twist away from a career derailing injury.
