This team is totally incompetent in every facet of the game. I can handle losing, but having a team that is simply embarrassing - from the disgusting owner to the bullshit stadium, surely the worst new stadium in the league built not for football but for goat roping, to the finger painting, paste eating lapdog of a GM, it's just fking tiresome.

This franchise will never be worth a shit as long as McNeck is in charge, and, as I always say, it will only get worse in a couple of years when Fredo takes over.

It's one thing to get outwitted by Belichick. It's quite another to get totally undressed by Norville freaking Turner.

KJ's out. There's literally no one else to put out there in the nickel. In other news, Demps is hurt, too.

Total, complete incompetence in every possible facet of the game.

The radio guys speculate that they want to kick the ball just in front of the goal line, which Peters does, and they want another football player (non-kicker) in coverage.

Warren · #9 10-09-2016, 02:31 PM

So terrible Sam Bradford can complete a crossing route while getting drilled but we can't complete a wide open bench route because the pocket was "shrinking"
