So if Jimmy throws Smitty under the bus....

[Zod]

How long will Jimmy's recovery last?

Word to the wise Jimmy Jam... this ain't college. Don't throw your receivers under the bus while talking about a failed play.

I don't think he has that much arm strength.

[IRONMAN]

I'm saying a black eye and blurred vision. Only 1 week this time.

He didn't throw anyone under the bus in that Gruden interview... Gruden (a coach) was asking Clausen (a QB) what happened on a play and Clausen was honest with him.

If Clausen had said that during a press conference it would be a totally different thing. Gruden said himself that he and Clausen were speaking as coach/player and he expected Clausen to be honest with him.

Personally, I'm greatful for this whole misconception - it's another reason why Clausen fell right into our hands.

How long does it take to surgically remove a 12 pack of cactus coolers out of one's ass?

This was the most concocted fake storyline possibly ever created by ESPN.

And it probably cost Jimmy multiple draft slots and millions of dollars.

So we should all be thankful that it happend.

Don't feed the troll, people.

Peyton Manning throws his teamates under the bus all the time; whats the big deal...don't mess up and you won't get called out by the leader of the team!

[neverlosethefeeling]

Yup

[HPPantherzfan]

There is a difference in holding people accountable and throwing them under the bus

So saying the receiver messed up instead of lying and saying something else happened is throwing someone under the bus but then saying your Offensive linemen can't block for Sh!t is holding people accountable? Hmmm.

This. Gruden asked what happened, Clausen said the WR ran the wrong route and it was a mis-communication, and since its true, what the hells the problem? What is supposed to do? Lie to Gruden in a one on one interview?

[Dpantherman]

just put a patch on it. and before we get on this train, take a look around the league...if he does, he has plenty of company...starting at the top with Peyton Manning.

You don't tug on Superman's cape.

You don't spit into the wind.

You don't pull the mask off an ol' Lone Ranger,

and you don't mess around with Steve Smith.
