Honestly the Jets are in the same boat. Which environment do you think is more conducive to developing talent?

1. If I work my ass off I have a chance to play.

2. If I work my ass off I have a chance to play a couple shifts on the fourth line if Gustav Nyquist gets hurt.

When you run a team like the latter, apathy cancels out any talent you do manage to find.

I couldn’t agree more

O’Shea (like several people here) tends to just look at the result rather than the process. It’s flawed and it’s how you wind up leading this franchise to this position.

Anyone who has been observing the process over the past few years has seen this coming a mile away. Applying the blame to 377 rushing yards tonight is a symptom of only being willing to look at the result. How do you arrive at 377 rushing yards? The same way you arrive at a lot of the unfortunate circumstances surrounding this franchise right now. It doesn’t “just happen”.

This happens because you have allowed complacency. There’s no accountability because there’s no consequence. There’s no building new pros because our role models have been allowed to behave in a way that doesn’t breed professionalism. What kind of respect do you think a guy like Stanley Bryant commands from a new player in the locker room right now? I guarantee you there’s a small part of them that respects the hell out of the fact that he’s a no-doubt first ballot hall of famer but there’s a much bigger part of them that resents the fact that they have to scratch and claw to get a sniff of an opportunity while he’s allowed to coast without being questioned.

Make no mistake. Every player in that locker room knows Stan sucks right now. What do you think that does for morale? What do you think it does for the morale of a player like Connor Shay or Michael Ayers to see Kyrie Wilson get handed a spot and give up on major play after major play throughout the course of a game? If those players aren’t bothered by it, they shouldn’t be here either.

This is all the process. The staff let it get this far and they don’t seem to want to recognize it. Film study isn’t going to correct those issues. We need far more than that.

Irrelevant. They were winning with 6 minutes left.

It’s very relevant, I would say.

Our identity as a successful team was built on imposing our will on teams and being mentally strong but even stronger with our backs against the wall.

Now we prepare, adjust, coach and play like a team with no brains, no guts and no balls.

The young players are learning this from the veterans because it’s been accepted by the coaches. **** rolls downhill.

You heard Mike guys. No judging MOS. Hard to judge anyone ;)

Yeah that’s what I meant

I’m not going to judge Elgersma for this whatsoever, hard to judge anyone under these pathetic circumstances

Outcoached AGAIN

Hahahaha my god

Lmao holy **** we have become an embarrassment

Nichols almost made quite the play there nearly head butting the ball out as he stumbled over his own feet

Farhan is so bad with player names

Question for the football knowers here. First play on the drive the bomber threw the ball down the field. Is that allowed? Can we do that?

Fortunate it was a missed call by the ref

******* finally

Look what happens when you get some variation in your play calling

Same one..but with our shitty tackking he shouldt torpedo in..good chance guy gets away as he knocks the other guy off him lol

Fair enough lol

i mean that is bad. especially for a front player. Wrap and tackle. selling out for hits is no different from selling out for picks like houston did here

Think I must be thinking about a different play. Looked like he was already wrapped up and Jones was just finishing it off.

Just now, Booch said:

Maybe Jones should actually wrap him up as he's coming in for the hit

I mean now you’re just nitpicking everything lol he’s trying to make a play to create a turnover there

I don’t ever want to hear the suggestion that we don’t have talent behind Bryant ever again.

The dude literally cannot even get up out of his stance. Biggest lifetime appointment I’ve ever seen.

Just now, wbbfan said:

brown isn’t playing like a rookie, but bryant is

Bryant is playing like they picked him up out of Thursday Night Bingo at the senior home

I never thought I’d say this but I miss Jason Hogan

nice to see us get it into the hands of the speedster Daniels

lol. Has he even been asked to throw a pass beyond 5 yards. Condell has lost the plot. And our head coach has no nuts. Kicking a FG at the 4 yard line.

lol that’s just it, “Brown can’t throw” … the entire game plan has been about making sure he doesn’t and for no real reason whatsoever

Not to pick on him because we’ve been getting along better lately but for @GCn20 this is exactly what a half of football looks like when you have got all of the talent and the coaching is ******* atrocious

Just now, wbbfan said:

how do you bite soo hard on a pump when the qb is 2-3 yards past the line

Your name is Kyrie Wilson

I think he was down before he crossed the goal line which is going to lead to an interesting decision

Smith with the knockdown

Remember the first drive when we mixed all kinds of offensive looks up

Farhan Is the least energetic announcer. That's what's lulling me to sleep as well.

All he does is hype BC and the thing I can’t stand most about him is that he’s completely oblivious to it

This feels like eventually our D is going to give up a drive and our momentum will be entirely gone

Farhan is such a west coast bozo
