Jeff Saturday Throws His O-Line Under a Bus

Recommended Posts

Saturday was (rightfully) pissed at Thibodeaux's sack celebration as Foles lay on the ground in serious pain.  But he was also pissed at his own team.

Saturday also took exception to another aspect of the play: the fact that none of his players intervened during Thibodeaux's prolonged display.

 

"Disappointed from the O-line perspective and teammates in general," said Saturday, a former Colts Pro Bowl center.

 

"We protect our own. Y'all know me. I've been here a long time. I'm just going to tread lightly. Obviously, I didn't like it at all. That's where I'll leave it."

I remember Tre White's teammates standing around doing nothing after the dirty Gronk hit on Tre White, but McDermott didn't call them out.

The problem going back to the end of last season was the O line play and now letting your QB get busted up and not reacting to the celebration while he is on the ground is galling.  Guys with no fire or passion.  They will be gone soon when they clean house.

Saturday's right.  This clown was dancing on Foles's grave--literally side by side as he's writhing in agony.  Teammates strolled away.

 

 

It's a business, they say...


for as much crap as Thibedwaux has taken I honestly don’t think he knew the condition of Foles. He never looked over at him or anything .

 

I blame the Giants teammates for not stopping him

he knew he had just leveled the guy and put him on the ground ........and then laid down next to him to perform that extended a-hole celebration.

I saw it live on the broadcast and it was a bit disturbing, especially with how long Thibodeaux was doing the snow angels.  Actually surprised he wasn't penalized for taunting.

 

While I don't disagree about him not knowing at the time of the snow angels, this also happened:

Yeah, I have no problem with the snow angels. He didn't know.

 

But that right there is classless.

Still dislike Gronk for that. Saw he tweeted prayers for Damar. I say faak him
