It's amazing the play it safe conservative views of this board. Play it safe for what? Undo what? A team that Is .500 for the first time since 2008 under a lame duck coach? Really what damage could he possibly do? We've been playing it safe and reaping no benefits for years. Meanwhile the risk takers like the bengals rise to relevance strike gold (burfict) patriots (dennard)rams (jenkins). Every kid thay hits a bump in the road isn't rae curruth.

 

I doubt they let him go for less than a first, so people are going to be skeptical at the thought of giving up that pick given his circumstances. Um Burfict went undrafted, and Dennard was a 7th rounder. Janoris Jenkins, really? I saw all I need to know about him Sunday.

This sounds like bullshit. PFT (really?) is literally the only place talking about this. I highly doubt this is legit.

 

Besides, I honestly would rather not even have the guy here. We don't need this in our locker room.

 

Anyone see him knocking down a security guard last week while he went out of bounds? He didn't even help the guy up.

 

Didn't help him up? This is why you don't want Blackmon in the locker room?

 

I remember the same thing happened to perennial nice-guy DeAngelo Williams last season. He accidentally ran into a camera or security guy, knocked him down, turned around, and ran back to the huddle. There are other people standing around. It's not the players' job to stand around and help up a security guard in the middle of a game. The show must go on. (Nothing personal, Zod.)

 

I would be okay with trading a 3rd, maybe even a 2nd rounder for Blackmon. I don't see it as being very likely to happen, though. At all.

I didn't say that's why I didn't want him here. I put the information out there, since this is, ya know, a thread about Justin Blackmon.

Yeah, Gamble isn't exactly the brightest crayon in the knife drawer either. 

 

But probably the best cornerback we've ever had, and definitely better than what we have now.  Gamble just got bored with football I think, if he focused like he did a couple of those seasons he could have been a top 5 CB (he was in a couple seasons).

      T-Mac Jerseys?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol well that kinda ended up working out in the end, even though I still don't have my jersey yet. Was supposed to ship by tomorrow this time, but just got another email saying it was delayed another 3 weeks and because it's been delayed so long, I had to tell them to keep the order or cancel it, but gave me a 25% off my next order as an apology. Well, my original fear came true and they are now selling the FUSE version (but still not the Blue unfortunately) before the one I ordered was ever shipped. But that's awesome, because I was able to use that coupon to order the FUSE instead and then cancelled the original order.  So I got the jersey I wanted for only $6.30 more than the crappier version costs, and it also says it will be shipped immediately and get here early next week, or 2 weeks before the other was now supposed to be shipped out.

      I've watched this and think we are well underway.  Believe it or not, Bryce is a big part of this.  The way he bounced back with such grace.  And we've got a lot of young players who want to make their mark, Dave is giving them an opportunity.  I loved our draft.  I like the number of guys we brought in, and they will help build the culture we want under Dave.  We're getting closer, and I think we'll see more wins this year than most of the board. The right culture breeds winning, and winning builds the right culture.  Imho, it's coming.

      As others have said it's both. One creates the other. But it also takes time sometimes years. And there have been teams lately with new car smell coaching staffs that looked like they were putting it together quickly but things came crashing back down to Earth. Sustainability is the key. For that to happen the meddling of our owners has to stop and they cannot be tempted to return to their ways over any bump in the road either.
