Time to trim some fat(Durham, Edwards)

When a player, lets say Delmas, stops on a guy on a key 3rd down - and starts yelling in his face and gets a 15 yard penalty - he's mental. When another player, oh lets say Suh, blocks a guy when another is about to score a TD - and gets a penalty - its mental.

I'm not talking Titus mental but the fact is we have too many players who don't think. Why add another..

Everything you said has NOTHING to do with what you highlighted....none of it is an entitlement mentality or poor work ethic.

You tried to make a joke, it wasn't funny.....but at least make an intelligent argument about what you're making a joke about.

So you think making stupid plays aren't about mental makeup? This team is all about making stupid, mental plays. Just because I read your post wrong, because I can't read your mind, doesn't excuse the fact we don't need any more stupid players. Like one that might enjoy pot more than helping a football team.

I agree with you. Not sure where the weed smoking came into play.....but ok.
 
Old, not funny anymore joke.

Time to move on.

And how can it be team philosophy when the one guy they had like that, Young, was told to leave and then cut almost immediately?

Get some new material....you're starting to sound like Hughes.

Hey mitch.. .gratz on joining the smart kids that are right all the time!
 
At this point I don t care if he has a condition where he has to masterbate 10 times a day....fuck character abd issues.....I want a guy that can run, has 2 knees, and can catch.


I'm at work...someone post the sat night live dan fouts skit.

If he jerks off 10 times a day he could develop Carpal Tunnel Syndrome....there go the good hands!
 
You've been wrong on so many things this year, its comical actually.

i can count 1 .....levy. which he decided to miraculously turn the corner and play good after 4 years of suck. Difference is I can admit when im wrong.....although I don't really count 5 games compared to 4 years as wrong....just temporarily wrong until he decides to suck again.

admit when you're wrong? cmon bro, you're delusional..lol. you never gave this team a fighting chance from the jump.

one of the only reasons I do give us a chance now is cause the NFC sucks so bad....my opinions on us being a solid team are still the same.....they haven't changed just cause Reggie had a couple good games. I said before the start of the year we need to start 4-2 or we don't have a chance in hell...4 out of 6 on the road to start....itd be huge to end that 6 game start with 4 wins.

But if last week was any indication...this team is still fragile at best. GBs weak defense made our oline look like a joke. WRS suck ass. We had no run game again. Dline got no pressure and DBS got torched. Its sad when your MVP for an entire game is the punter.

You give us a chance because the NFC sucks?? Even your compliments are backhanded. And if you dont think this team has changed because of Reggie then you're an idiot. He brings a whole new option to the offense. Does he need Calvin in there? Absolutely but Reggie has made a huge difference. It hurts having your #1 and #2 WRs out last week and it was obvious. How can it not be?

And the defense didnt play all that bad. They flushed Rodgers out of the pocket, they stopped the run besides the big Cobb run. Houston played like shit but Bentley and Mathis played good. Especially Bentley, he practically shut down Cobb. Wasnt as bad as you think, wasnt dominant either.

Stafford made some erratic throws but his fn WRs/TEs cant catch a fn cold. He needs his guys out there and thats ok, theres nothing wrong with that. No way he's 100% comfortable with guys like Durham, Broyles and Edwards as his starters. How could he be?

Bush has 4.9 YPC and is a deadly receiver. Yeah Reggie hasn't changed anything.
 
And thanks to Reggie we won 2 division games. Remember when the lions went 0-6 and you talked about that all offseason Hughes and didn't give us a chance in any division games because of it.

Green Bay is fucking lucky as shit Calvin didn't play or the Lions would be in control. Bring on the Browns and Calvin back.

Doesn't that tell you about the lack of depth we have? If Bush or CJ is missing we're going to lose? A QB I can understand but losing a WR, regardless how good he is, or a RB shouldn't not effect our season.

Even if you think we'd win if we had him, I don't, a WR should not dictate our wins and losses.

TWO WRs were out for the Packers game. Burleson and CJ. Thats humongous! How much depth do you think a team has? You lose your studs, you're done...end of story. For any NFL team and it cant be argued.

Not sure I'd call Burleson a stud. Point being though in the 'Zona game we lost Bush but still had CJ and Nate and our offense died. We're too dependent on 1 guy..look at GB. They don't have anyone like CJ but if their top guy goes down they'd be fine, same with Denver. They have great WR depth.

Not expecting perfection but a good team should be able to move the ball without their top gun.
