Have you missed the last decade?
Was gonna say, that’s a new attitude after 17 years.
well there are always those time where in 3rd and 2 the O goes for a deep pass down the sideline. So maybe is not the conservative but the Dumb playcalling
The problem is it's like reality tv...in that it's not real. They know the cameras and mics are on them so they act according to what their image is.
It could be, but I bet it's what the national sports outlets are saying. He also might be playing on the word conservative...as in conservative vs. liberal as he caught a lot of crap for the shirt he was wearing with the justice, freedom, etc. stuff on it and the outrage was reported all over. And the reason I make that linkage is because "conservative and scared" is the main right wing populism tenet. You know scaring white Republicans with brown people, black people...the border...be scared, be very scared they're coming for you. All that stuff.... wouldn't put it past Tomlin.
What I was referring to in my comment above was :06 - :11 in the video. And also his "Play to win" comment. It just seemed weird to me and almost like he emphasized it because the mic was hot. We say all that stuff regularly here. I could be wrong though because I'm wrong a lot.
When it comes to words MT is an expert and knows exactly what he's saying and doing. X's and O's, not so much.
Exactly. That's what I was going to say also that he can think up stuff like that to throw it back at people, now if he only put that kind of thought into x's and O's...LOL... That "conservative and scared" line didn't debut on the sidelines, he mentioned it in interviews prior to the game. That's why I thought it might be political and reactionary because of the shirt outrage as he kept harping on it.
Washington is slow and a horrible route runner… he only has one or two pass plays he is capable of succeeding at..
I made these same comments on another board when we drafted him and got crucified for it.
Crucified! And you live to tell about it!
Sometimes an old dog must be forced to accept learning new tricks.
Pickett is young and insecure about his position with the team. Most people in that situation do EXACTLY as they are told, so as to more likely cement their position. The “phuq it”, ill do what I want, rarely results in a positive outcome. There by reducing your security even more. KP is doing what is his primary direction, do not turn over the ball.Did coach T look Kenny straight in the eye when he said "Conservative and scared"?
I hope Pickett is reading between the lines when he hears coach T say that to Mason.
Perfectly described how Pickett plays
So use those pass plays a couple times a game, until he learns more.
I agree with what you said above about Kenny and I feel like MT gave Rudy a longer leash, because at that point in the season he really had no choice. And maybe he thought Rudy would suck so he'd have a scapegoat if the losing season became reality.
But, here's another thing to think of. In between Kenny and Mason was Trubisky. Anyone doubt that Trubisky played "free". He was playing so damned free that he gave the other team free takeaways. Kenny has to learn to work in that middle ground between totally free and totally by the books. I feel like Mason understands this. He's been aggressive for sure; when it's the proper time to be. But, he also has placed a premium on ball security (0 INTs).
