I know a lot of you probably don't want to talk about this today given Hurney's offing.

But do you guys think that losing Shockey was a bit of a bigger loss than anyone really realized. This offense is almost identical to last year, yet it seems as though they fold in a lot of tough situations. I think we honestly miss the fire, passion and edge that Shockey brought to the team. I couldn't see him just sitting around on the sidelines when we are getting embarassed, I just picture him trying to hype up the team or start a fight with the opponent.

Almost identical players maybe, but very different schemes.

So must of our runs last year weren't read options? Must have been watching the wrong Panthers. By virtue of what you are saying, you are saying the team implemented a completley new offense in this offseason which isnt even close to true.

The 2 TE "Coryell" downfield passing game was so money last year that they thought they'd put it on the shelf. Clearly not signing Shockey was a huge error as the entire system has morphed into this ugly cluster-fug of read option garbage.

The effort NOT to re-sign Shockey was essentially a harbinger of this 1-5 season and the Hurney sacking. It didn't have to be Shockey, but Barnidge just can't give you the veteran savvy needed in the Coryell system. That TE needs to be a monster blocker and a crisp route runner. He needs to have toughness, experience, and a little swag.

Shockey was the epitome of this offense last year. Mike "oops, I dropped the pass" Tolbert is now the epitome of this year's failure.

Hurney is the one to blame. Then Chud, the Rivera.

      LaMelo to Brooklyn for Nic Claxton, Drake Powell, and a pick.  Who says no?

      Appreciate you, brother!  I know it was lengthy, but I felt whoever actually read it would appreciate it.

      Damn good take, brother.  I think I take that poo personally because (sidebar: I don’t like to use narcissist often because social media has made it a buzzword and diluted the meaning, so when I use it, I don’t take it lightly) I grew up in a home with a raging narcissist, then married a narcissist and just came out of a divorce after a 20 year marriage with her, where afterwards she met and married another narcissist.🤣  And in my dealings with them, over my 41 years on this earth, at times I took great delight in breaking down their arguments point by point and forcing them to either acknowledge their wrongs and take ownership of them or watch them yammer and stammer away when they ran out of lies and excuses.  At various points, that was extremely satisfying, but ultimately, which I’ve realized especially after the last 3 years and going through the divorce and everything, it does NOTHING to them.  It doesn’t affect them one way or another.  For a logical, reasonable, grounded person, you would think calling them in their poo will bring it to their attention when they’re face when nothing but facts and truth and force them to change, but nope.  Not in the slightest.  They just disassociate from the ones who do that and find more people who will validate their behaviors and thinking.  poo pisses me off because they’re so destructive and couldn’t care less so long as their needs are met.
