'Bring the Pain' Stepping away from the panic button, slowly

"Bring the Pain" huh? I guess "Smoot Lays the Smack Down" serves no purpose now as a weekly feature. I sort of feel like Jon Jansen when he showed up one day at training camp last year and saw himself dropped down the depth chart...

I dont care about the other threads.....we always need the Smackdown!!!

Outstanding tread,,, When Sydner replaces Vinny and the front office and coachs, then we might start to see some progress. But Sydner needs to start now (and he may well have after todays loss) really really try and find some way to bring in a very talented coaching staff that knows what they are doing and start the pain staking process of rebuilding this team. Snyder needs to lose his pride and look into what has helped some of the other teams like the Pats,Steelers,etc. be so successful. And quite this shit of trying to break the bank just because he has the money. Common sense can go along ways.

Are you referring to the successful teams that don't consider firing coaches after only 17 games?

I agree! Bring the Pain was not and is not an attempt to replace or usurp the Smackdown! It was a one time thread. I am merely Timmy Smith to your John Riggins. We want our Smackdown!

Juggernaut....sorry, Juggernaunt and Insideman For starting stupid, panic threads after the first game of the season. An away loss to the New York Giants. It's fine to have concerns and be critical (see: this thread), but your threads sucked. Especially insideman's. That was one of the worst threads I've seen started in the history of stupid threads that are started after a loss. Nothing personal, just disappointed really in myself for being surprised to see such threads...yet again.

I think we need a poll to decide which was the biggest over reaction thread.

i vote all of them....

Here's why I'm not freaking out, check the schedule for the next 5 weeks

9/20 St. Louis
9/27 at Detroit
10/4 Tampa Bay
10/11 at Carolina
10/18 Kansas City

The way Carolina played yesterday we could only hope that Delhomme is STILL starting. I'm actually more nervous about TB because Cadillac was going NUTS on Dallas's defense.

I actually don't think Campbell played that terribly, he completed over 70% of his passes and averaged over 10 yards per completion. He seemed to be looking down the field very well and hitting receivers in stride, and that's what we didn't see last year. Did he make two stupid plays? Of course he did, but not stepping up in the pocket probably results in a TD for the defense less than 1% of the time. It was just bad luck and this would have been a completely different game if that was a sack instead.

The over-the-line interception was inexcusable, Campbell should, and does know better. He showed last year that he can be trusted to take care of the ball, so I don't think that play will be indicative of his play for the rest of the year.

The playcalling was disappointing though. In parts of the 2nd and 3rd quarter it looked like they couldn't stop us when we went 3 wide. The Giants didn't have enough corner depth to stop us when they need their nickle on the field, but all of the sudden we went into run-run-pass playcalling and let them off the hook.


SIDE NOTE: Hi guys, I just joined up today after deciding I couldn't take extremeskins anymore. The place is essentially unreadable for much of the year and is completely devoid of logic. The Warpath seems to have actual discussion in place of profanity laced tirades, and I look forward to Skins talk with all of you.

Cheers
