The second time he’s taken shots at the fans this year 😂 sorry losing teams don’t get parades Hassan 

Meh, I'm fine with pissed off D players. I know who is going to take the real shots. I'm also fine with him not going after his own O. He just needs to disconnect and have fun chasing QBs the rest of the year.

It amazes me how many people would live their whole lives around other people and not realize the vast majority of them do not consider a lack of expertise any reason to withhold sharing their opinion about anything and everything with the world.

--My definition of all social media: idiots talking all over each other.

Expressing "one's right to free speech" encourages the weakest minds to share their output -- akin to vomiting on somebody else's lap.

this a business driven by fans investments so might be worth considering before posting

Incorrect, sir.  Buying a jersey, or a hot dog and beer, or even a PSL, amounts to nothing to the NFL.  The NFL is a business driven by corporate advertising dollars, and TV contracts.

A fan doesn’t matter.  The collective does.  

where do you think those big corporations want to dump their dollars?  You gonna dump them in to an org an tarps covering up empty seats or into an org with a rabid and pumped fanbase.   Probably can get better deal when things look horrible.  I mean you are going to get some no matter what though.  But the game is getting the most you can.

Viewership is money. Without those eyes on the product where do the billions come from?

As frank said above me, viewership is money. Time is an investment. The fans invest their time into watching the NFL. Without viewership, there is no money to be made from advertising and no network would air the games. The NFL is a business driven by viewership. No fan viewership = No money. 

The fans absolutely have a right to comment on the poor play of the team they invest their time and money into. This doesn't include threatening or belittling them on social media and the likes. But I definitely have a right to comment on their poor performance. They get paid millions to play a game. They should be able to take criticism if they are playing at the highest level of the sport. 

You don't like criticism? Start winning ball games. That's all there is to it. In the age of social media, no one is free of criticisms anyways. We certainly criticize each other, don't we? Why would players, coaches, staff,  and organizations all together get preferential treatment in that regard?

Probably a good idea. 

Telling the fans to just shut up and watch isn't a good business decision. 

I don't know, I kind of want to buy a Reddick Jersey now.  In fact, I wouldn't mind if it had shut up and watch written on it.  

Not really, but as they say, there is no such thing as bad publicity.

No, he didn't. It's still there.

hmmm.  if you search his twitter handle his @ name doesn't link anymore in posts like it is deactivated.  That's what I did trying to find that post initially.   But you are right, I was able to just find his account up.  Weird.

    • Bryce among the 7 players Mark Ross of NFL.com guarantees will get better this season. Today, I am identifying seven players who I guarantee will improve on their 2024 output in the 2025 season. Young took tremendous strides in 2024 after returning to the starting lineup in Week 8 following his benching. He looked far more comfortable in his return and produced with consistency, as he threw for 2,104 yards with 15 TDs and six INTs in the final 10 contests. Most important perhaps is Young's confidence grew immensely down the stretch, leading Carolina to either a game-tying or game-winning drive in six of those games. Now he enters his second season in Dave Canales' system with his best supporting cast to date. The Panthers drafted wide receiver Tetairoa McMillan eighth overall to pair with Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette, who I also believe is poised for a breakout campaign this fall. The 18th-ranked rushing attack from a year ago added Rico Dowdle to complement Chuba Hubbard, giving the team a pair of 1,000-yard rushers. The Panthers have taken the necessary steps to ensure Young's third season will be the best of his career, and now it's up to him to not only continue to grow as a player but prove why he was worthy of being taken No. 1 overall in 2023. I believe that's what he will do. https://www.nfl.com/news/which-nfl-players-will-improve-in-2025-c-j-stroud-deebo-samuel-among-guaranteed-risers  
    • While it's fair to question how impactful a player's relationship with a coach is (especially if someone has questions regarding said coach), it's important to also evaluate the difference between the players here. Jordan Fuller was pick #199 in the 6th round while Justin Simmons was #98 in the 3rd round. Jordan Fuller might have gotten a Super Bowl ring while he was with the Rams, but he got it while on the IR. Justin Simmons, on the other hand, is a x2 Pro-Bowler (2020, 2023), x4 second-team All-Pro (2019, 2021 - 2023), and was the NFL co-leader in INTs (2022). Simmons has also fallen off in the last couple of seasons though, grade-wise. He very well might not be that same player, which could be why the Falcons have elected to replace him with Fuller. As far as getting the best out of what he has, asking him to produce with a starting DL of A'Shawn Robinson (63.56% of the defense's snaps), LaBryan Ray (51.48%), and Shy Tuttle (50.08%) isn't reasonable. Wonnum only played in 8 games, but had the second most % of snaps (37.27%) at EDGE behind Clowney (53.53%). The second-string DL based on snap % was... and don't read this if you just ate... Charles Harris (34.48%), DeShawn Williams (27.67%), and Nick Thurman (19.7%). The second-string EDGEs based on snap count would be DJ Johnson (32.27%) and Cam Gill (18.14%). With the investments made in the run defense this season though, especially on the defensive line, it's more than fair to demand a complete turn around from last season.
