Finally Jerry says something I agree with. I'm not sure how anyone thought Dinucci was really an NFL prospect. His mechanics looked horrible. I have never seen so many side armed passes in my life. Not really sure why he is still taking up a place on the roster.

he has one of the strangest delivery’s I’ve seen in sometime lol

He's not wrong, but he's a toolbag for saying it. BTW, We heard all week about Nooch's big arm and how he can run. He was slow with a rag arm. see its OK when I say it.

I'm going to disagree completely and say it was a back-handed compliment to Nooch. What? You believe our 3rd stringer had more time to practice with the 1st team before his first ever start? I think he did pretty well considering. Denver's QB started at Wake so it's not like he's never played the position before. I'll take Nooch's start over Denver's WR/QB. They both were challenged and our's almost came away with a win.
i think this is the correct interpretation.

From what I saw in his game and in his college highlights, the sidearm is something he has in his arsenal, but he overuses it. When he throws overhead, and not under duress, he seems to be pretty accurate.

This is why Jerry needs to stop going on radio. I get why people keep having him on, he's bound to saying something stupid and entertaining but for Jerry's sake, he often comes off as ignorant and silly.
Nothing ignorant or silly about saying denucci sucks because he does

The sidearm throws I saw him make were something he needs to get rid of not refine

I'm guessing this tweet, like most others are taking the statement out of context. That's not to say Jerry doesn't say some stupid crap, but insulting his players isn't something he usually does.
people will see what they want to see, only exposes them.

He needs to use sidearm throws only when absolutely necessary, which is probably about once every three or four games.

Knowing his penchant for saying either the wrong thing or saying things wrongly, I do not think he intended that as a slam against the kid, that's not his nature.

And yet another reason why you do not hear or see other owners or GM's making statements weekly or inviting any questions. Nothing good comes from that. Except fodder for sites like this one. Without that old fool's stupid comments and the lucky sperm one upping him, what would we have to talk about?

Is there some secret tape vault that Coors is keeping all of his video comments for future commercials when he goes toes up?

I agree. Besides, the narrative as always been, some teams have reasons, but Dallas only has excuses. Just today Cowherd is listing all the REASONS why Wentz and Philly are having trouble, but of course the Cowboys are simply pathetic. Nooch was a fringe player forced into action, just like the Denver situation, but nutball Jerry drama $ells better.

No wonder jerry loved Garrett. They both talk tough to fringe players but walk on eggshells with paid players. Two cowards that love each other


Jimmy Johnson once said if a fringe player falls asleep in a team meeting, you cut him. If Emmitt does, you nudge him. Was JJ a coward too?

You don’t alienate your larger investments.

Unfair to Nooch…..he may want to pick up gourmet donuts, croissants, and expressos for the next QB meeting.

The irony of all this, and one that Jerry fails to see, is that as the GM he is responsible for DiNucci so he really should be publicly calling himself out, not the player. He’s the first to take all the credit when things are going well but always deflects the blame or refuses to accept it.

Remember Jerry, every time you point the finger there’s always three pointing back at you.

Not supporting DiNucci in anyway just one thing I was thinking during the game and he clearly wasn't ready but it looked like they didn't bother giving him 9-10 plays he could know inside out during the week he prepared. It looked like they prepared all week on trick/gadget plays for that game. I've seen DiNucci play pro-style football and he led teams to championship games in College ball. I still think there are major coaching issues on this team. The whole franchise is just a mess right now.
