God damn it man.

Dude. I will take anybody.

And all of you fans of other teams can suck it. You've all gassed up guys on your own teams that didn't end up amounting to jack ****.

I mean that 2nd year in the league, he seemed to improve a lot. 3,400 yards passing like 25 TDs and 6 INTs.

But the next year he passed for about the same amount of yards, but the INTs went through the roof.

Once again though, he didn't have a bad year last season...It is just that it is such a passing league now that it wasn't really looked at. He had 4,000 yards 27 TDs and 17 INTs. Could cut down on the picks still, but at least he was throwing TDs, he had V-Jax and Mike Williams as a good 1-2 combo at WR and Doug Martin came on the scene looking like a beast.

Enter this season and I thought he would at least fight for his job. I was expecting him to ball out since it is a contract year. Even if we didn't keep him, he would be auditioning for somewhere else whether it be the Jags, Cards, Titans, Raiders, or Cleveland or something.

They way he is going about it, to me, almost is as if he doesn't care and is just going through the motions. Seriously, these first 3 games he has went 15/31, 9/22, and 19/41 :x

If anything, all the pressure, controversy, and losing his "C" have him shook out there and he can't regain his composure.

At this rate, if he bombs against the Cards this week, I would just rather they bench him for Glennon going into the bye week and see what we have with him for the rest of the season and see if we need to enter the "Tank for Teddy" contest.

Just saw this...dude must never want to come back to the league if he causing noise and he not even signed to a team...
Pro football player Ty Nsekhe blasts military: ‘It doesn’t take much skill to kill someone’

Pro football player Attauyo 'Ty' Nsekhe started quite the firestorm on Twitter on Monday afternoon after he elevated himself above U.S. military members for having “skills.”
“It doesn’t take much skill to kill someone,” Nsekhe, a free agent offensive tackle last signed to the St. Louis Rams‘ practice squad, said in response to a tweet by Morgan Reed that read, “Hard to believe that a player in a helmet defendin’ a football makes more money than a soldier in a helmet defendin’ his country.”

Not surprisingly, Nsekhe’s tweet didn’t go over well.
“The reason you have the freedom & capitalist system that allows you to make $ is directly because of their skill & sacrifice!” musician Chris Loesch wrote, later demanding an apology.

“The epitome of ignorance,” actor Daniel Bostic wrote.

“[Y]ou must be in the military huh,” the football player replied.

Dude is right though. This whole argument about soldiers should be paid more than Athletes is so stupid

God damn it man.

3rd frame kills me every time.

 

[reggiekiller]

**** him. I'll bet that I'm better at "that", than he is at his job.

And it takes a fair amount of skill to shoot someone in the head from 500 meters with iron sights

**** him

He doesn't know what hes talking about... Don't even sweat it.

 

[dmxfury]

Ignorant response to a bad question in itself. But an absolutely moronic response by him

and to say soldiers dont need much skill to kill a person is the reason why they dont get paid more is just as stupid

 

[gmsboy1]

And to get worked up when 20 minutes later the majority of people will resume life and resume not giving a damn about the military is pretty stupid.

pretty interesting read on the eagles running the "swinging gate"

I don't think going for two is worth it.

I'm pretty sure my pee-wee football team executed it better than them, the blocking was laughable.

yeah i agree that the dude's response was dumb and his choice of words weren't the best. But soldiers shouldn't be paid more than Pro Athletes

Are we really about to have this discussion?

......

 

[shox23]

No. If people want to debate this they should make a thread about, you just know banz will ensue.

 

[dmxfury]

I mean obviously they can't and won't be. Nothing positive was going to come it of those comments though, how clueless can you get?

 

[a55a5in11]

y'all are right. My bad for the post. Its hard not too respond to some posts on here

 

[gmsboy1]

Are we really about to have this discussion? ......

There is no discussion. Athletes are paid that way because people throw the money at them. The market dictates. Youre the guy posting about missing nfl ticket on sunday. How many protests you been at for teacher or military personnel pay raises?

People just talk about ideals, then they spend all sunday watching football.

 

[larrydavid]

That's what happens when you're unemployed, you sit around and rustle jimmies all day for entertainment.

What in the hell are you talking about?

All I said was we shouldn't be having that argument in here.

Talkin bout "I'm the guy that blah blah blah...." like I just took a hard stand that Joe Army Sniper should be making more than Joe Flacco or some ****...

I don't even know what to make of your posts and its lack of validity but I'm going to heed my own advice and not have this discussion in here.

The final score of Rams/Bucs game was 11-6? :x

 

[gmsboy1]
