We need one of those Josh Freeman memes for Bailey.

He could the left pylon from the 3, but only if he was aiming for the right pylon.

Yep, he was lined up in the slot.

Lot like the TD Irv Scored. Caught a short pass, lowered the shoulder and plowed into the endzone

And about the same body size as Irv

Apparently "former first-round pick" still carries a lot of weight. As does Treadwell. He looks tight-endish.

Status: offline 		As was noted during the game, the use of Conklin and Ham in the second half in the pass game was discouraging. Getting the ball to Irv was not. Attempting to get it to Beebe, and not trying much to Jefferson and Thielen was frustrating

Then when they went long...they sent Sharpe deep. WHA???

No way Tampa covered that well. Perhaps a big part of that was the line getting it handed to them.

Went back to my old ways in that Red Zone sequence where Cousins fumbled, then took a sack the next play. Yelled "THROW THE DAMN BALL!"

After that I gave up.

He has the jitters back there. EVERY game. Getting knocked around doesn't help. He seems to take forever to survey the field. Except on those first down play actions. Those seem to be fake turn and throw because there's one guy he's going to.

Again, just the way it seems to me watching them.

He was rolling
His sarcasm aimed at who we send into patterns, and who we choose to use, and then at Bailey's chances .... was actually pretty clever stuff
He gave off the air of a guy burned 27 too many times.
The org is due for an enema again. It's got even the most-optimistic homers turning on em.

Should have had that on. It would have at least been more entertaining.

The OL was just awful again

Still chuckling at the sight of O'neill sacking Cousins early on.
If you saw it you know what I mean
It was like he said "know what? just let me do it, it's quicker"

Cousins will always throw to the most open guy in big situations.

Sometimes you need to let your playmakers make plays.

To be fair, a nice pile of dog shit would've been more effective at slowing the rush at times.

True. At least pass rushers would occasionally slip on it.

Excellent point, they claimed it was hot as hell on the field.
Had kinda forgot that when bitching about the personnel moves
My bad

Another guy who is better as a D- Coord than HC
Plenty of those guys around.

I suspect Petricia will D-Coord somewhere in the near future after the Detroit fiasco, and do well.

Be a good fit.

As far as bringing in a new hot shot guy, I surely don't have the patience. But Zimmer has been here forever. Nothing improves enough to say "Gee, what a great hire". Too much up and down.

That's where NE had Brady and Beichek and it worked.

KC is having its run

All because they took young QBs and had success w/them.

Would love to see it happen, Instead they keep trying the quick fix. Some success, but not enough and after a bit it turns to crap
