Re: Post Dumpster Fire...er Skins vs. Saints Thread

The only way we wouldn't bounce back from this is if we had no leaders in the locker room. I think we do, and I expect them to lead by example this week.

Also it's disappointing to hear what Hall said about Norman, but I would hope after the game he had last week he'd focus on what's important this week.

Right now he is focused on his silly twitter battle with Michael Thomas

Sports
Jay Gruden reportedly yanked headphones off Josh Norman’s head
Michael David Smith,ProFootball Talk on NBC Sports

According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the incident began when Gruden stepped to the front of the locker room to address the team. Norman had his headphones on, which is normal for him at halftime. But Norman also had his back to Gruden, which meant Norman didn’t realize that Grudent had started talking. That prompted Gruden to yank the headphones off Norman’s head.

That resulted in Norman getting very upset and walking away, with Gruden calling after him, “If you keep walking, you’re not going to start the second half.”

Norman did not start the second half, for reasons Gruden declined to explain. But that appears to be the reason.

Really getting tired of Norman. Just shut up and play dude. Or how about make a play for once? Or how about you stop blowing coverages? I'd expect that from a rookie, not one of the highest (over) paid corners in the league.

For what its worth,

Norman was the guy who fucked up the record breaker,

skins were playing a cover 3 cloud with Montae closing the Middle of field, Josh blew his assignment and MN was late getting over.

Before watching film I thought it would have been on the S but nope freaking Josh caused it.

It’s week 4, they’re not gonna do that to the QB they just signed. If it was the last year of his deal maybe, but we all knew this was just another bandaid until we draft a QB. Smith is like a poor man’s bootleg Cousins, he’ll play just good enough in several games to get fans to calm down but he’ll never get you completely to the promised land.

Put in McCoy, sign Dez, if roster building is your expertise I thank the football gods you aren't our GM.

Re: Post Dumpster Fire...er Skins vs. Saints Thread

We got a quarterback playing like crap and all I hear is we have to figure out what he is comfortable with. The problem is Jay Gruden can’t figure out which way is up.
Im not even watching the game this weekend. Aint worth my time. I wish I could fast forward out of the Gruden and Smith era. Uggh even if I could Bruce fucking Allen is still there. I think i hold him more responsible than anyone. Normally at 2-2 Id be ecstatic but this smells like a shit sandwich of a season even at 2-2. So many holes on this roster too. This entire team is no different than any other team in recent history. So God damned discouraging.

I think its absolutely a bad omen that after a bye week Alex Smith has a game like that versus a bad secondary. There is no fucking excuse for that performance.

Horrific doesn't do it justice.

It puts the thought in my head...Another fucking garbage QB move from Bruce and Dan.

I think we know what peak Alex Smith looks like. A guy that can win you a lot of games if he has a strong supporting cast.

I also think we have seen what terrible Alex Smith looks like. Or at least I hope that's the worst we'll see from him.

Not just a bad secondary; they were the worst in the league in passing D on Football Outsiders before they played us.

They are still 31st:https://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/teamdef

I really don't think Jay makes it till next year unless they right the ship convincingly by season's end.

Bad playcalling led to some of those, guys not getting open either. Not all was on him but yes he played a bad game overall. I think we can say the whole damn team did

Re: Post Dumpster Fire...er Skins vs. Saints Thread

Another telling stat.

With Sean Mcvay calling plays we had a top 10 Offense

Since he has left and Jay is calling plays.

16th and 21st (2017, 2018).

20 PPG.
