Or a combination of bad route and bad throw. Either way that ball shouldn't have been thrown. Take the safe throw when its there. Not every toss has to be 40 yards down the field.

So why was he signed?

He absolutely strikes me as being the guy that doesn't believe in the "It's the Jimmies and Joes not the X's and O's" mantra. To me he just seems very confident that he can beat everyone with his schemes regardless of the competition he is facing, and would seem to be overly thrilled to win with an underdog squad where he can pat himself on the back. To me, there's way too much Reich ethos with him.

I hate Jimmy Johnson, I don't think he was a great coach, but Jimmy Johnson was the absolute pinnacle of just leaning into the skills and talents of the guys on the roster by recognizing it is a simple game if you just let the talent do the work for you. It was so fucking simple and so damn frustrating to watch.

Not just Stroud, but they sat all of their key defensive and skill players coming out of the half as well. It'll be an absolute disgrace if we don't win this game now :cool:

Although what we all have seem to have forgotten is that AR played much better than expected in his limited time his rookie year. That could have been an aberration, or he could have regressed between his rookie and 2nd year.

Teams learned his weaknesses.

That’s what NFL defenses do. Take away what you do well and if you can’t be effective then, you’re not gonna make it.

That’s why in my opinion it would have been great to see Leonard for extended minutes.

Come on Pierce. You have to know better than that. Can’t make contact with an official.

Racehorse 01-04-2026 04:30 PM

BS ejection. Ref was moving towards Pierce, too

ChoppedWood 01-04-2026 04:30 PM

These dudes in the stripes, man something has to change. Nacua was absolutely right, these fucks absolutely want to be TV stars.

I hate these fucking maggots.

nate505 01-04-2026 04:30 PM

Pretty lame ejection

Spike 01-04-2026 04:30 PM

Fuck the officials.

YDFL Commish 01-04-2026 04:30 PM

Absolutely BS call! Ref contacted Pierce!
