Whatever works

Wow, you mean plays that don't take 5 seconds to develop are better behind a questionable O-Line?

Who woulda thunk it. Its not like so many of us have been saying this for weeks.

Exactly. People wondering why Cam was holding the ball so long was because of how long the routes were.

Despite that Arizona game, Cam has truly shown growth as a passer this season. You won't hear opposing fans or ESPN say it but Newton (who entered the league raw as hell) is far ahead of RG3 and Kaepernick in development. I'd only rank Luck ahead of him by the slightest margin. Incidentally, I find it strange that Indianapolis' coaching staff doesn't fully trust Luck.

 

I would honestly put Russel Wilson may ahead of Cam and Luck. RW reminds me of Brady back in the day. The numbers don't jump out at you, but he puts his team in position to win by playing smart and giving what the D takes him. Nobody else does that imo

Most don't want to admit it, but at least for one week...wait for it...Shula showed growth.  The offensive game plan was A+.  I have watched the game 3 times now and trust me, that ain't the Shula game plan from the first 4 games.  Who knows what we get this week but, for one shinning moment, the boy called the game of his life.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
