49ers Douchenozzle Safety Eric Reid Hangs Up On Dan Patrick For Asking About Getting Toldozed

Was just watching The Dan Patrick Show and he was asking some questions that you could sense were making Reid a bit uncomfortable. Per usual, when asked about players they'd be facing against the Seahawks, Reid gave extremely generic answers as if he might divulge too much if he did otherwise. He continued with generic answers and Patrick kept pressing with uncomfortable questions served with a side of jovial laughter, to loosen Reid up, as Patrick usually does (and does well I might add).

Well, Patrick started asking more pressing questions because the interview was quickly becoming a vanilla trainwreck... he then asks, did Reid close his eyes when he has to tackle bigger guys. Reid says he'd be lying if he said he didn't close his eyes on EVERY tackle. Patrick asked, who was the ONE guy he knew it would hurt when he had to tackle him. Reid's responses started getting more and more delayed and generic. Long pauses before replying... it got to where it felt like any answer Reid would give to the round of questions would make him less manly and look like a punnani to his peers... you could sense it was going bad fast.

So, Patrick says, what about the Tolbert hit? Reid snaps back quicker than before, and with attitude, "WHAT ABOUT IT?!?!" Patrick says, what does that one feel like? What are you thinking when that happens?

...long pause...

As a viewer/listener, you really wonder what's going on and why he hasn't said anything. He paused for a few questions before that were awkward (like asking about Harbaugh's Wal-Mart pants lol), but he eventually responded, albeit generically. So, you still expect him to answer.

The pause is the longest yet...

Patrick breaks the silence and says, "like that? That's what it was like?" It became clear Reid had hung up on him. Patrick's producer scrambled to call him back, and with the phone to ear and finger rapidly dialing numbers, Patrick says laughingly, "Don't... don't... let it go... " One of the other producers humorously quips, "I'm not talking trousers or concussions."

And yet, another victim of the TOLDOZER is revisited.

That's also why I didnt feel bad in the least for Reid when he got Toldozed. What a dick... have a sense of humor about it.

Most guys would laugh it off and say "yeah, I got trucked, it happens"... at least that's the mature way to handle it.

Maybe he has a bit of an ego.

That would be my approach. Laugh it off and make light of it for the sake of public perception. But, it felt like the whole interview he was extremely guarded as though any answer he might give that gives credit to an opponent would degrade himself in the process. It was really weird.

Exactly, I mean it happened and we all saw it - his daddy even wrote the Panthers a note thanking Tolbert for kneeling next to his baby boy after he trucked his sorry ass, so not talking about it won't make people forget it happened. 

 

Kid sounds like a douche, but he plays for the 49ers so none of us should be surprised. 

 

GO SEAHAWKS.

I got blasted pretty good a few times when I played.  Heck, had a guy take a run and spear me right in the chest when a play was pretty much over.  Knocked the wind right outta me.

 

I laugh about those stories now. 

 

Most football players aren't afraid or ashamed to talk about times when they were on the losing end of something,  Heck, you'll hear Hall of Fame guys tell stories like that all the time.  It happens to the best of them.

 

If he's so insecure that he's embarrassed about it, that's on him.

      Dan Morgan on the Rich Eisen show

      By TD alt · Posted

      I hope Bryce balls out. Wouldn't bet the farm on it though. Morgan has to be practical though. He was placed into a situation where he was compelled to give Bryce a long look. There really haven't been any more practical options due to who has been available at the position. The Panthers had already put their chips in with Bryce, so putting more chips in by borrowing against the future and stacking on that by borrowing against the future without really having the requisite draft capital was a nonstarter. We could either dump Bryce and go dumpster diving for known and unknown JAGs at the position, or take out chances and let it play out with Bryce and hope for acceptable returns. Due to what looks like some good moves in the draft and free agency, it appears like we're finally getting into a position where we can take a swing again if need be without destroying the core of the team. I understand that you'll believe it when you see it, but Dan is gonna move on if Bryce can't cut it. There are too many professionals lives and careers tied to Bryce to simply accept the status quo.

      Football is the ultimate team sport. No sport is more dependent on others for your success - including coaching. I don't know if Bryce is the guy, but I do know this has been a very bad team all around since he got here. One of the worst o-lines and coaching staffs I've ever seen his rookie year. One of the worst defenses and receiving groups (including TEs) I've ever seen his 2nd season - with a rookie HC and OC. An improving WR group his 3rd season mostly due to a rookie. The only other WR of note didn't really play well until after the 10th game of the season due to injury. Still no receiving TE to speak of. And lost games because of the worst pass rush in the NFL. And the only speed he's ever had on the field was DJ Chark. A washed up DJ Chark that played here one year and has had 31 yards receiving since leaving.  Carolina had no business moving up for a QB in 2023. They weren't ready. Especially if it meant trading your only good WR to do it. Now finally there's potential on defense. Potential on o-line. Potential at WR, including some actual speed in a game where speed kills. If BY falls on his face this season, then he has to own it. Situation may not be perfect, but it's at least NFL average across the board. I won't beat him up for being bad in bad situations on a bad team. But a 4th year QB has to be able to control the offense and make players/coaches right. The team looks good enough on paper to show what he can do now.
