Cowboys off coord Scott Linehan yelling at RB Christine Michael to show some tempo & quit walking around. Now has pulled him aside for chat.

Sounds like we are about to cut another RB this week :lmao2:

Scott Linehan furious with Christine Michael. Just yelled some expletives to get him motivated. Then came over and talked to him.

You just can't make this stuff up anymore. Sounds like they are setting up their fall guy already.

CM was just leaving the field after practicing his one play per game.

If Demarco were here, all would be right in Cowboys world.

Let me also say that this is most likely fallout from the chest bump crap that Michael did against Seattle. I'm sure the RB coach (or even both him and Linehan) had a conversation with Cmike in the film room this week.

The NFL truly does stand for Not For Long. I didn't care for the chest bump and the lack of concentration that it clearly showed. I hope Cmike makes it through this patch because we need him to do so.

It's more likely the sort of thing that goes on with almost every player at any given practice. A coach getting on a player to generate enthusiasm. Hardy a sign of anything, either way.

Michael may have a reputation for being slow to learn his responsibilities, but not playing with fire and attitude are not really problems of his, overall.

Linehan is not going to be involved in the chest bump issue. That's Garrett or the RB coach.

Linehan is likely tired of him being a moron.

Yeah. You nailed it but, rest assured, the media has pounced and the Cmike haters aren't too far behind. We need the guy and I'm not giving up hope that he begins to fit in nicely (even with the boisterous antics which are ok if channeled properly).

I still say they need to give him the Private Pyle treatment from Full Metal Jacket where they held him down and beat him with socks full of soap bars or coins.

His RB coach seems to really like him. I think either the OC or the HC, or both, aren't comfortable with him playing yet, which probably means they don't trust him in pass pro.

I'd almost rather see him get snaps this week and next. McFadden's not going to go all season without missing snaps. If we get Romo back and lose him to a blown RB protection, I'm going to go ape on everyone and everything. Just telling you now. Getting Cassel killed the next two weeks, I can live with. :)

Another bum who isn't worth the trouble.

This clown could learn a thing or two about professionalism about McFadden. Say what you want about Darren, but he is a professional running back. Key word professional. Not first grade clowns like Randle and Michael.

They don't want to miss out on his 12 carries for a 3.6 ypc and 2 dropped passes on 3 attempts.
