Expand Well that makes no sense. Don't you know there are pitchforks at the ready! We must totally gut this team again! That's the only way to build a winner! Keep gutting everything after one year when something happens we don't like! [/sarcasm] Translation: some people just love to piss on the team no matter what.

Just win some games, we are not looking for role models we want WINS! Expand I don't care about wins at this point. I question the "process" after the Star signing, no o_line upgrades, V. Davis quitting on his teammates, no back up OR veteran mentor for a ROOKIE, starting NP (both times), no viable WR at all, and watching players who performed great last year look horrible this year. I for one am not at all confident that Mc Clappy can right this ship. Edited September 17, 2018 by JTown 3

When you combine two bad losses with this.. things could get ugly. Expand This is my latest concern. If this keeps up, players are going to get pissed and start dividing the locker room etc. It could get to a point like that season when Aaron Schoebel retired because it was such a tire fire. Then next year we'll have to run off all the guys that didn't "buy in" this year creating even more holes. What ever happened to win AND rebuild?

Jauronimo Posted September 17, 2018 Posted September 17, 2018 Vontae Davis has looked incapable of performing at an NFL level for well over a year now. He got burned early yesterday after being inactive week 1. He should have retired before September but at least he realized what many of us already saw. His time was up. If the team was performing better maybe Davis stays on the rest of the year as healthy scratch or comes off the bench here and there. His decision has nothing to do with the team and coaching staff. 1

Expand Vontae had a good first half, yesterday. He forced a fumble that should’ve been bills ball. Potentially changing the course of the game. Refs made the wrong call. This is a sign of a major problem. A vet, who has a long respected career just doesn’t quit in the middle of the game, without significant reason. Edited September 17, 2018 by COTC 1

In the name of process and a throw away year, why wasn't a younger greener CB on the roster instead of Davis? Coach had to know he wasn't any good anymore, if he didn't he sucks as a coach. Everything about this process or Davis walking out or Brown going off or........ whatever, is a freaking **** show. I have to believe TPegs isn't very happy right now. 1
