    Offensive line has been terrible yet again. Not picking up blitzes, letting pressure through on 3 man rushes. Davis is invisible yet again. Diggs isn't as good as he has been. It's a below average supporting cast.

     

    James Cook is the 2nd best player on the team. A critical series like that, you have to put the ball in his hands. Failing to do so can't be blamed on the OLine or the WRs.

    So far this game is a repeat of much of our season. We get up early against a good team, and then slowly let them back in the game as they figure out what we're doing defensively, and Josh and the offense stop making big plays in the 2nd half.

     

    You forgot "then Josh and the offense scores a touchdown late only for the defense to choke and give up the late score for the loss".

    Agreed. We need to bring all perspectives. Folks that have been fired and cut… that brings such a three-dimensional perspective.

     

    A host of anonymous comments about someone else’s accountability is SUCH a great service to the fan base!

     

    No you're right - we should only hear positive things about people in power.

     

    The opinions of fired people or those who have witnessed mistreatment should never be heard.

    I can’t say that super confidently even prior to this. 

     

    Right. How would we know he hasn't lost the locker room? Last I checked, they don't announce to the public when players of a football team no longer buy the message the coach is selling.

    It's a hit piece. Denying it brings your level of literacy into question.

    It is a hit piece. It is pretty much the definition of one. That doesn't mean it isn't legitimate, or well researched, or true. But it is a hit piece.

    Dunne could have listened to his higher angels and taken a higher road.  He could have, for example, chosen not to write a hit piece.  

     

     

    We can argue semantics until we're blue in the face. In the end, it's irrelevant what you want to call Dunne's reporting and completely misses the point I'm making.

     

    The point is that this existing mindset from a segment of the fanbase that a reporter shouldn't report certain opinions about a millionaire coach of a football team because it might hurt his feelings is completely absurd.

     

    We need to bring all perspectives about this head coach to light because many people pay their hard-earned money and spend time out of their lives rooting for this team that he's in charge of. And because it's a competitive sport, our goal as fans is to witness this team winning the Super Bowl. And if there are many people out there who have experience working closely with that coach and believe he doesn't have the leadership qualities and/or coaching chops it takes to get that team there, then it should be reported to the public.

     

    To think Dunne "could have listened to his higher angels and taken a higher road" by not reporting what former players and colleagues really think about McDermott is a disservice to the fanbase.
