Just one more comment about the Mack non-challenge play. That was pretty soft from him at the end. He had a head of steam and there should've never been a doubt if he just lowers his shoulder. I like the skills, but power that in and protect the football.

I guess you can criticize him for that, but he DID get in, Pagano just is a dumbass.

Criticizing him for not getting MORE of a TD or an EASIER TD, for a rookie, in the first quarter of his first game, trying to score his first TD, is pretty soft in itself.

Adding here to the list of things that pisses me off:

Pagano talking about not making excuses, blah blah blah, about missing this guy or that guy.

Hey Chuck, no one is even saying those things except you.

It was a poor way to finish the play. Yes, or no?

I think it was, in fact, kind of weak.

I also think Mack is never going to be that type of runner. He never showed an ability to punish defenders in college, I don't think it's reasonable to expect that at this level.

His game is speed, elusiveness, and balance. He looks like the type of runner to me that isn't very strong, but he's so fast he's able to play stronger than he really is.

Honestly did not strike me as that when I saw the play.

He scored what should have been a TD, what more do you want? There are not points for technique in this league.

I can't fault a guy at all for actually getting in the endzone. He probably thought he knew the ball was in. Just like everyone but the ref.

I can fault the dumb fuck worthless idiotic moron of a head coach who didn't wait to see what his peeps upstairs said and tried to hurry a play in. Like he was worried the Rams were going to challenge the call.

I mean, that's such a mind fuck on the stupidity scale that if someone told me he'd do this before the game my response would have been "I know Pags is an idiot, but even he can't be that completely and utterly stupid." But Pags never fails to disappoint in the stupidity category when it comes to coaching. He's like the David Blaine of dumbfuckery, trying to figure out how to top his latest trick of epic stupidity. Granted, his all time classic was the punt but honestly, this is on the same level of total incompetence.

Man it is so soo soooooo much worse. At least with the fake punt "thing"- there was solid intention- the goal being to surprise the other team by doing something crafty and gaining an advantage. What he did yesterday- he MADE SURE his own team did not get a TD! How he has a job at 4:52 PM today, I don't know- oh yes I do, because Jim is probably neck high in smack right now and doesn't even know who Cuck (yes on purpose) Pagano is!

They all need to go...

On another note, how the fuck does TJ Green get 62 snaps at defense and Quincy Wilson get 17. Especially when the head coach was a former DB coach.

Remember Pagano "stood in the table" for Green. He really, really wants Green to succeed.
