Said on one of the miscommunications that he basically read an uncovered man and LaFell didn't see/hear Clausen say it.

This is the type of thing he got knocked for before. Shouldn't he have someone coaching him up on interviews?

That would require a decent coach on payroll.

That's not quite the same as saying, "My receiver ran the wrong route" like he supposedly did before, but yeah.

not sure what you expect him to say.

Hopefully he also took the blame for throwing terrible balls all afternoon.

Just simply that there was miscommunication. Not that I saw this and called this and my receiver didn't do that. Something small but this was a major knock on him coming out

He needs a lesson from John Fox on how to handle the media.

Taken From The John Fox Book "How To Treat The Media"

Chapter I - What to say

"It is what it is."

"No one is coming to save us."

"He's gives us the best chance to win."

"Gantt, where the fug did you put my gum?"

your headline that he threw him under the bus made me think it was something more than "there was a miscommunication" ... which is something you hear from QBs all the time. Saying "my receiver ran the wrong route" is NOT something you hear all the time. >.>

anyway, minor details, but yes, this was one of the knocks on him.

I guess we'll see how he responds in two weeks.

It was more than it was a miscommunication. If you listen he says that he saw LaFell uncovered and called the hot read/route and LaFell didn't make the correct read and didn't hear Clausen call it out. He basically said LaFell was wrong and should have been in position to make the catch.

He should have said, "Just some miscommunication between us, we'll work it out in practice"

    • I am trying to remember when I EVER said reach for need. My thing if someone falls you jump, if you can trade back a few slots and get help at the right value and pick up some ammo to move up from 51 which I think is outside the money zone, then you do that.   Take a WR later. Plenty of capable WRs have come from the 3rd round. Though this year I would go for C there if there was a reasonable choice. Take a TE if you must. I see more reason to take WR than TE. I think you give guys drafted two years ago and last year a chance to develop before cancelling them.    I think it is kind of unrealistic to throw everything all in on offense in hopes of going deep in the playoffs after an 8-10 year, even if it did have some nice bright spots in it.    And outside of this argument but relevant to it, I am bothered by Canales and Morgan and their apparent posture that we have arrived and are now in the big boy club. I don’t know where that comes from. They are out there talking like they are winners at 8-10. Backing into the playoffs in a real convoluted tie breaker scenario. They had some good games, yes. But the big feather n the cap, the LA Rams matchups, did you see what the Rams did? They didn’t fire the coaches but they fired their defensive backs. Bryce beat them yes, and it was pretty, but it was kind of like the Bucs and Mike Evans picking on our decimated secondary in 2022. Someone (Wilks) went down for allowing that to happen and they went down in LA too.  Wr aren’t as good as a whole lot of homers think we are. Shore up the trenches.    I think too many fans buy into it because they are so starved for anything that looks like a winner. 
    • How exactly does one win OROY "by default"? Wouldn't winning the award mean that of the two, McMillon stayed strong the entire year while the other guy didn't and fizzled out? That's like saying Secretariat only won by default because the other horse stopped moving midway through the race. Absolutely zero logic in that statement, which makes me very glad that I've never really paid much attention to Walterfoozball.
    • I agree, teams in the past have fired the HC in order to retain a coach on staff...hell it happened to Mcderp this year, rams in the past and Im missing another.  The fall off for the Panthers team defense was huge once Mcderp leftd and Ron could not fix it even when he named himself DC.
