Well, I don't bother to post very often, and who knows if I am even really signed in or whatever, but to me this comment says it all about this season:
1. Fitz, as much as we all like him and want him to be 'the man', is clearly not the (dominant) 'man' very often, and in this league a winning quarterback needs to be the man on a regular basis, not a few times per game.
2. How many of the six teams we've played so far this season have field goal kickers that also kick touchbacks? Our touchback ticker isn't even doing that, so an incredibly valuable roster spot for actual football players (with apologies to kickers, long snappers) goes a 'wasting?!
3. If Brad Smith, who is obviously a talented boy, had a magic arm, then he should be starting over Fitzy!! If he doesn't, it makes the "Lapcat" incredibly one dimensional, and therefore expendable, imho. If that decision also makes BS expendable, so be it; get some more linemen.
4. "4 QB's and 2 Kickers" and we "can't throw it more than 20 yards or kick it 50" says it all, in a nutshell, about the frustration with the Nix/Gailey regime, it all just seems so impotent (with huge exceptions to FredEx and CJ and the OLine and Stevie). Our team has so much talent, drive, and yes manliness, but in toto, watching them in toto it looks like ballet class...
OK, so my opinions notwithstanding, Coach's remark is absolutely dead-effin on....
