Blank Stare

Yeah. I like the Brown and Beasley additions, but that’s been my one criticism of them too. I really like Foster, but for whatever reason he doesn’t seem to be “process” enough for them. No way in the world Zay should be getting more snaps than him at this point.

Agreed. I’m happy with Ford (at guard) because after QB I think you build from the inside out. We’ve ignored the line for years. However, this team has lacked explosion on offense since we had sammy, woods, and glass-quise Goodwin, so I would have been 100% fine with DK in the second. Could’ve had him without moving up like we did with Ford (I think, could be wrong there). Shoot, just look at the Chiefs for proof that you can never have enough playmakers. Imagine him with Knox. That’s a nice base of young playmakers.

I’d be shocked if he doesn’t play with what seems to be participating in the standard routine for the QBs. If he was still in rough shape, they wouldn’t have him out there with blasting music and in the rain on a slippery field running, cutting, and jumping over medicine balls. Sure, it could all be gamesmanship, but I doubt it. If McD was as clever as he thinks he is, he would’ve picked up on the team’s tendency to not pull in their gunners on a punt block call.

I get that, and I also don’t want anything bad or long term to happen to Josh either. I’m with you there. However, I don’t think he clears protocol unless he’s actually cleared from all symptoms. So he would be healthy. If he doesn’t clear, he doesn’t play.

I don’t get this at all. If they clear him, why sit him? It’s an independent neurologist if I recall correctly. If he’s clear, you put your best guys on the field. We need him. Even with all the bone headed hero ball plays, he’s our best shot. We go as far as he takes us, same as it’s always been.

Agreed. This dude should have been fired last year. I could be wrong, but I don’t recall him being too awful of a ref when he did it, but boy is he out of his league with this job. Seems like the guy always screws us with a critical call against the Cheats. The kelvin benjamin TD that was overturned comes to mind. The play I was most annoyed with yesterday, beside the Allen hit, was the pick play on Levi Wallace. I don’t care if the rule doesn’t allow you to consider intent. Dude didn’t even attempt to run a route. But hey, we’ve been getting jobbed on critical calls against the cheats since at least the “just give it to them” game. It’s a joke.

Absent injury and not clearing the protocol, I don’t see any way you sit your starting QB that got you to 3-0. What Belichick did to Josh is what he does to every young QB. Not even sure how much Belichick even did to him honestly. The errors were all forced, inpatient hero ball crap. I feel like the cheats played him the same way last year. Take away the escape runs and make him throw. Sure, Josh can learn, and I wouldn’t have been against pulling him for a series to tell him to cut the ish, but he needs to play. Josh needs to learn, and I don’t see how sitting on the bench helps at this point. Love him or hate him, we go as far as he takes us this year. Same as it’s always been.

Much appreciated. I’m not normally one for the language, but I’m at a loss for words. Pats never do anything wrong. Never mind that Jones stood over Josh and flexed after the hit. Replay showed that, but I guess intent wasn’t there to throw him out of the game.

I said it yesterday after the game, but enough with Zay Jones. Bob Foster shouldn’t be losing snaps to Zay any more. Outside of maybe run blocking, Zay offers nothing more than Foster. Foster’s speed keeps DBs on their toes. But I guess he hasn’t “earned the right” quite like Zay.

I’m sorry, but what a douche.

For whatever reason, it just seems like he continues to think he’s got to do it alone. He’s got a much better group this year, but he still plays too much hero ball. I like how aggressive he is, but in this league, guys are too good to get away with that crap. Why can’t he get rid of the ball faster? Isn’t that what every QB ALWAYS does to us? Some of it is on him and still learning, but some of it is most definitely on playcalling. Daboll did him no favors today. Especially in the first half.

Can we all just admit it already? Zay is a bust. Yes, he’s been dealt some bad QB’ing and overall poor offensive team mates, but I struggle to even see how this guy is a top 4 receiver on our team. Juju should’ve been the pick. Instead we had his former receivers coach at ECU in McDermott’s ear. Guy plays small, and not just physically.

Ball game.

Wow. And I thought with the 3 picks, Josh was losing this for us. Turns out, even with those picks he was keeping us in it.

Smith needs to go sit down. Been terrible today. Him and Zay.

Now that’s a punt.

D playing out of its damn mind.

I like the call to go for it there. No guarantee we get back down there. If Zay could make a contested catch or at least not knock it straight into the air, it’s a field position play if we don’t get it. Reward outweighs the risk to me.

Zay Jones has been awful today.

That’s inexcusable. One play after the qtr end and you use a TO.

Come on Josh. This has been your quarter.

D has been unbelievable. If Josh can just STOP trying to do it all by himself and put a drive together, we can win this thing

Terrible terrible call. Guy wasn’t even running a route!

That’s pass interference. Guy clearly wasn’t running a route.

Return of the pick. I love wanting to make something happen, but sometimes you live to play another down. He just can’t help himself.
