December 16, 201411 yr comment_140829 Doesn't name names but clearly Marty B was one of the few guys on the offensive side of the ball who was playing hard and playing with price. That much was evidence. He went on to mention he wasn't going to name names but that the guys in the lockeroom know who he is talking about. Obviously you can presume he's talking about Jay but I think it likely goes beyond that and goes to other guys on the offensive side of the ball, including coaches, etc. We really are a dysfunctional mess and to be frank it is probably better off that way as it really is the only way we will see some form of significant change this season (vs. having to go through all of this mess again next year).

December 16, 201411 yr comment_140830 Could be Forte too as he didn't even attempt to get in front of a couple blitzers in last night's game. He looked like he checked out of that one pretty early on. Report

He looked like he checked out of that one pretty early on. Yeah; Forte looked done as well. He even sounded done when you heard his postgame quotes. I really can't blame the guy either. We have one of the best all-around backs in the league and are not taking advantage of it. Report
December 16, 201411 yr comment_140835 I blame everyone not trying. You are paid a boatload. You think Walter jaked it when he played on crap teams? Shame on you Matt Forte!!!

I actually give Tucker credit. Defense, as bad as they are, always seem to be trying. I think a lot of that has to do with fact you have more young guys who are really playing for something, but you learn a lot through that and I will say the one thing that makes me willing to give Emery a benefit of the doubt (I haven't said I would give him that) is that each of his draft classes appear to be deeper and better. This pats years looks like its got a chance to be something special (from an overall depth perspective..we'll see what Fuller ends up turning into). Report
December 16, 201411 yr comment_140845 Tucker is bad. This isn't AYSO, we don't give out best effort trophies. He's in over his head. Sorry to be so harsh, but he's not good. Emery has made some hits. But, I'm not sure other GM's could have done similar. he's made some huge mistakes. I want him gone. I don't trust he knows how to hire. I actually give Tucker credit.

I agree with you on all points and I certainly wasn't saying Tucker is good. He isn't but out of all of our coaches, I will at least give him some credit for actually getting some effort out of our players. It really says something that the guy who has headed up our franchise worst defense is the best of our primary coaches. Pathetic. Report
