Smoot Lays The Smack Down (sort of)

[SmootSmack]

Now that Matty's finally lifted my ban I've got a few thoughts on the past 10 days

Sometimes a loss is just a loss, not some metaphor for greater forces at work.

Yes, losing to the rams sucks but it's just one game

I expressed concerns about Maake all summer and he's done nothing to alleviate them. He's just not healthy enough, I think signing him will prove to have been a big mistake

I expressed concerns about our linebackers all summer and while I think we've got some talent there it's an area that needs to be addressed. We seem to just have many athletes playing lb, but the mental element seems to be lacking

Katy Perry is not a whore

Still not sure why DT is not getting more playing time. I'm not buying Shanahan's reasoning. Shanahan's has said on record the best way to judge s player is in games so why not give DT in game opportunities? And Fred Davis too.

The LJ release reminds me in many ways of the Jeff George cut. Like it's supposed to be a shock to the whole locker room that a veteran was cut just two games into the season. They shouldn't have let him go in my opinion

ATV!!!!!!!!!

RIP Gloria Stuart

Feel bad for Dockery that he got benched but in retrospect maybe if wax s mistake to bring him back in the first place. No thought wax put into it, it sad just "hey fans we got an offensive lineman and Chris Samuels really wanted him!".

Maybe, just maybe, Sam Bradford is good

Brandon Banks on the practice squad is where he belongs for now

Portis' reasoning for dropping to the ground untouched after a long run was one of the more unique ones I've heard

Where's this year's Cutler vs Sanchez vs Campbell thread?

Heyer should never play LT. We'd have better luck with Aretha

Shanahan and Allens insistence being coy and vague about everything is confusing even their players and that's big allowing them to just relax and play

I'm certain we will win a game no one expects us to this year

But back to my original point, it was just one game on Sunday. The good teams and good coaches take bad losses (every team has them) and use them to grow closer in the locker room and stronger on the field...the bad ones gave to listen to bad jokes about bingo for the rest of the season


Maybe, just maybe, Sam Bradford is good
