[quote=The Goat;941485]Morgan's temper isn't his problem, it's that he doesn't have a head for the game and at this point in his career very unlikely to develop. Don't really buy that Finnegan had much to do w/ the outburst either...Morgan was reacting to himself from the same play. When he caught that ball had he turned inside and upfield a 1st down was a near certainty. Instead his (bad) instinct was to head toward the sideline, maybe because he was thinking about the clock, but the thing is if you don't get the first down the clock doesn't matter.

[B]I think it's [U]very obvious[/U] why SF (who is awesome good btw) didn't mind seeing Morgan go.[/B] Sure he's got the physical skills to be a starter, but he doesn't have the mental focus/football IQ.[/quote]

Woah, woah, woah they actually wanted to resign him but didn't have the money to sign a guy who got hurt over a other guys like Carlos Rogers and Ahmad Brooks who didn't get hurt, whom they needed to resign. So its not like SF didn't want him and wanted him to go somewhere else..

But, but, but they found the money to go out and sign Manningham lol! I think Harbough and san fran play it classy by saying they would have liked to keep Morgan. Did they make a real effort? Nope...

I'm not saying we cut him. Benched for a game certainly, although how do you bench a player for basically emulating the head coach? Mike didn't maintain his focus, and players followed suit.

Excellent point. I WAS impressed how Fischer kept his cool when his team got a rash of bad calls early in the game. He never once lost his cool. In the second half of the game when the bad calls started to go our way, Mike was so red I thought he was going to have a heart attack.

There is quite a bit of overreacting to the Josh Morgan outburst. Yes, it was inconceivably stupid, but he's still a very good and valuable player for this offense.

Morgan definitely pissed me off, but let's not jump the gun here. He's still going to contribute to the team, he just needs to have a sit down with some players. I mean he should know to control himself, but all game things were happening (not that it makes it right).

What pisses me off almost more is the fact that he decided to turn around, rather than just running and falling for the first down. Had he done that, none of the other stuff would have happened.

I understand trying to make a play happen, but in that type of situation, that late in the game you MUST go forward. Plain and simple.

[quote=SFREDSKIN;941249]This is a dumb thread!! Morgan is not the first NFL player to make a bonehead play and won't be the last, he will redeem himself in the future. You should change your thread to get rid of Danny Smith and Jim Haslett instead.[/quote]

If this was a D Hall thread you'd be all about this...

But yeah this and the "can we sweep the east" thread really highlight how stupid fans can be. Horrible mistake by Morgan, but I would be very disappointed if they cut him

Josh Morgan should have known better. Maybe the coaches might reduce his playing time in favor of Dezmon Briscoe. I'm surprised that Briscoe hasn't played one down on offense in the first two games.

Yeppers.

I think we'd all feel better if someone got canned. Can we hire back Cerato and turn around and very Publicly fire him so we can relax.

Yes sir. Morgan was stupid twice over: (1) not going north-south and (2) throwing the ball.

You still don't cut him, though.

Good point, but where would we come up with 6 receptions and 60 yards he's given us so far through 2 games?
