Much better that we lost the game As we were going nowhere with a win.
And to do so in such a memorable way. A few years from now we may be celebrating the muffed recovery as catalyst for our turnaround!! Well, only if the Jones get out of football operations. Crap, there is always a but.

I can understand how a player, especially someone with little experience could get confused in the moment. Having said that, a strong organization would cut said player to send a message to the rest of the team.

Is it fair? Is it compassionate? Probably not & no, but there are only so many tools available to make professional athletes understand consequences. This team has shown too little discipline & understanding of the game for years. Staff need to show less understanding & more ruthlessness in expecting professional level play.
First offense? That might be a bit too harsh. If he were to look like the next Kelvin Joseph, dump that little moth...Well, you know.

Leon Lett was a every down play maker.

This guy is a PS body that can't stay on a team and now we see why.
Made the same mistake what's your point I don't get some of y'all he made the same mistake in a big game for us I mean it was a big moment I should say and you know what if we don't get the block Turpin probably returns it for a good amount of time we probably get in field goal range we probably win the game 2320 but in the end everybody thought a loss is better than a win anyway it sucks to lose this way but they thought they were competitive and now we get a better draft pick because of boss you couldn't have drawn it up much better we were in the game it was competitive they fought hard meaning they're not giving up we got more injuries but don't blame him on a guy with the ball bounce right into his face and a bunch of traffic and real live fire just like Leon let it's hard to not go after a football that you think is live in real time I get it you're not on the field with a bunch of professionals in chaos it was an accident but Leon left it the same thing it is the same thing I don't care if that was a full time player and this guy wasn't Leon love was a bonehead he did it twice he did the **** in the Super bowl too I mean you forget that he could have set a record in the Super bowl had he scored that football that would have been a new record for points in a Super Bowl and he screwed it up he was a bonehead there are all kinds of boneheads on every team I don't care if they're starters four on just special teams or playing as backups they make the same mistake it's relative and you get to make the comment that it is the same it is exactly the same so you're arguing nothing who cares that he's full time it's the same mistake both instances cost us a game that is it put it to bed just go away...


People make mistakes humans make mistakes and this was in live fire and you don't understand the chaos on special teams and the fact that when the ball is blowing up all over it pretty much bounce to him an instinct made him reach up for it it happens.... I'm not sure if he tried to get out of the way it wouldn't have hit him in the leg anyway that's what balls do when they're blocked and they're flying all over the place and you don't get it but again Leon let make the same mistake so we get the same hey this is a Leon let moment it was as big a mistake it was on it Thanksgiving Day in front of everybody a team that's supposed to be better and better coach had a player that made the same mistake so get over it I am we get a better draft pick because of it let's move on the man made a mistake he's not gonna be fried for it he's not gonna be cut from the team for it because it was a mistake that can happen and he learns from it and again we benefit from it it's a heartbreaking loss in a way but not like if we were in a run in a race and it meant something it meant nothing this game meant nothing

The only reason it was even as close as it was was the refs doing anything and everything to get us the W.

I couldn't care less about the Bengals....but poor Joe Burrow almost had has freaking head pulled off his body...no flag. They gave Dallas every opportunity with the calls

(Que the "but Micah shoulda had 74 holds called" morons
lol thats ridiculous

their wr clearly fumbled, they should have had DPI on lamb and that ball hit the ground on the pick.

refs called it pretty even and both teams had beneficial calls

One of the things that bugs me about this offense is Lamb had single coverage on the last 4th down play and the QB didn't even look his way.

I am sorry when you lack playmakers and your best receiver by a mile is one-on-one, he needs to automatically become the first read.
