Is anybody else getting tired of Rivera's love for Fua?

I already answered the Ginn question. Fua got a third of his reps with the first team.

 

No you didn't. How many of Ginn snaps were with Newton compare to Gettis and where is the link to this info???

 

And Fua shouldn't even get that after his performance in Philly.

Gettis played with the 1s. Just because he was lining up incorrectly, running the wrong routes, and not getting the ball doesn't mean he wasn't out there.

You make absolutely no sense. You're arguing for Gettis to get burn with the big boys.

Ginn played with Newton.

Gettis played with Clausen.

Your boy played with the best QB on the team this preseason. What more do you want?

 

This is why I should be able to insult you.

I'm on my phone so that's all I can show of the snap counts, the breakdowns are fifty pages long, I'm not uploading all of those.

Link it or it didn't happen.

Stop this BULLSHIT of trying to make facts without proof.

First off, whether I linked it or not, it did happen, and your recollection of events is so off that you may be the only person alive that came away convinced that Ginn stole all of Gettis' reps. Secondly, I did link to it, so drink a giant cup of shut the f*ck up already.

1. I'll wait for the day you can make me drank that cup.

 

2. I posted the questioned before you posted the link.

 

3. Your link doesn't show the breakdown of 1st team reps does it? Which was the orignial question.

 

I don't care about the reps with Jimmy or when Smitty wasn't playing.

I think with Rivera, if you give it your all, he's going to give you a chance until the end.  Evidently Fua has been trying as hard as he can to make the roster.

 

However, the end is coming soon and I don't think he's playing good enough to justify to keep him.  I expect to see him released sometime this week.

At the risk of sticking to the topic, I'm going to suggest that Fua actually knows the playbook.  And Rivera has to play somebody once he's done seeing what he wants to see from the guys who will actually make the team, right?  I'm saying he'll get cut, I don't know if he will make the team.  But if he can be relied on to stick with his assignments, then does it make sense to play him while you focus on other people, rather than risk an injury to one of your rookies?

    • Lot of different agendas dictating opinions.  I don’t think it was the best use of money with Hunt, specifically, but the concept of OL, I am a fan. I didn’t complain a ton because I am a believer in winning up front, on both sides of the ball. I’d rather have stout fronts than fancy WRs. I have complained some about Hunt not being worth his deal, after seeing him get pushed around in a game or two. It’s no crusade. And have complained in the context of shorting the defense.   They have leveled out the FA imbalance with the dual big signings this offseason, and it has always been the draft picks I am most protective of. Anyway The picks are the real imbalance. If you did a trade chart value of the picks we directly gave up for Bryce, and added the support picks invested for skill players, and put that on one side… then put the little 3 3rd rounders and a 2nd that the defense got over three years on the other it would be hugely out of balance. I just want the balance restored. Defense is still owed.    
    • I'm one of the ones that won't let it go because it didn't solve the problem. We didn't address the center position which was a huge mistake. We were in position to easily take 2 or the top IOL. Instead of drafting JPJ over XL or Frazier over Brooks, we relied on an oft injured guard to center conversion and lo and behold, it failed as predicted. XL looks like a 1 year college wonder and an injured Brooks hasn't even surpassed Eric Shelton.  Bryce was also benched for poor performance, so the issue that many claimed was solely bad oline play wasn't. It didn't fix him bailing out of tight pockets because of being unable to see the field or him refusing to work on his atrocious footwork. Then there's the $$$. Lewis got a good guard payday. Hunt got a tackle payday. Pay tackles, draft guards, if you can.  I have no issues addressing problems through FA. It was not addressing C at all that's been the issue and still has been. Ryan Kalil was the anchor of our offensive line. We had years of solid center play and it showed. Now we're still piecemealing the center position with an expensive oline and it's still a shitshow. Why? Because the player responsible for what happens on the line presnap has little to no experience doing it. We did acquire a FA center this year finally. We'll see how much that impacts the line.  Spending on a center, whether it be through draft or FA is not bad. It's not a position that can have anyone just thrown in with no drop off in performance. A great center lifts the play of the guards on each side.  I don't like how we've built the line because we've ignored the hinge pin that everyone counts on every play. And the reality of the situation is, it didn't solve the actual problems with Bryce because those have nothing to do with the oline. 
    • Haha!!! That's true. Also carry Tomahawks, ballistic missiles, fighter jets, VSTOL aircraft, etc., but none of them clog up the crappers.
