Venting About Players And Coaches

Recommended Posts

Did anyone else get seriously angry when Moose had to get an illegal shift penalty because he was having the tell third year player Dwayne Jarrett where to line up? How ridiculous is that?

I'm not down on Moose, I'm down on Jarrett. Why is it that in his third year he still doesn't know where he's supposed to be? And, why hasn't this issue been addressed? I feel confident this isn't a solitary incident.

And, am I the only one who is disgusted at Julius Peppers standing there playing patty-cake with linemen all game long? Go back and look at the game if you still have it on DVR. Peppers played as if he were on the practice field playing without pads or something. If he isn't going to help this team, he should return some of that money and sit his overpaid derierre on the bench and let someone else fill the roster spot.

And, may I ask why Nick Hayden is still in there? I've tried to be open-minded about him, but he gets abused like a fat kid on a playground. How many penalties did he get today? Was it two?

Yes, I'm frustrated and venting, and there are others who are not playing up to par, but if I don't stop here, I'll name half the roster and most of the coaching staff.

    • Here's the thing. You compared him to Jake. Jake was signed to the practice squad out of college. Bryce was the number 1 overall. Their expectations are wildly different and so are their contracts. You can talk all you want about what a player is and where they are now and all this other mumbo jumbo, but Jake never had a 5th year option and we weren't talking about the possibility of a top 5 QB contract extension at the end of his 3rd year. What he was expected to be matters because we invested heavily at a cost of future capital, including a 2nd round pick this year, for him to be that guy. The cost to add Bryce took value from the team. To be worth it, he has to add that value back.  Actually, I don't prefer yards, TDs, or only INTs. All those stats by themselves are misleading which is why I said you have to use a lot of different stats. ADOT - Average depth of target.  Completion %. Pretty obvious until you factor in ADOT. 0-5 has a lot higher C% than 10-15%. Hang time. If a pass is in the air for 4.6 seconds vs 3.1 on a 40 yards throw, that gives a DB a lot of time to correct. Is it a loft or is it a laser.  EPA - Expected points added. A way of measuring QB efficiency on every play.  CPOE - ranking pass completions based on several factors, not just the throw.  There's obviously more, but those are the more common.  Typical stats don't show everything. You need to look all over. Looking at a stat line is lazy. That's why I said, you need to analyze everything. Once you start looking at the numbers you start looking at the player. That's why you follow numbers. They lead you places. You look at what happening when the numbers show you patterns. That's where you start finding the problems that yards, TDs and Ints won't show you.     
    • It's not relevant who wins or loses. It's about actually attempting to get better at the position.
    • Thank you. I don't understand how the Bryce stans don't see this. I've never seen a player get more hyped for doing so little. Honestly it's driving me a little insane.
