DeMarcus Lawrence: We have to play against opponents + refs

[Nav22]

He's right, and I hope the players are all this candid. Coaches and Jerry too.

Maybe, just maybe, if we shine a bright enough light on the POS refs jobbing us on a regular basis, we'll only get screwed like 5 times per game instead of 10.

 

[T-RO]

Speak'n truth.

Some fülls here will say it's whining or making excuses. Nope. It's concrete fact and it makes winning it all flat impossible.

It does seem to be the case a lot. I just wonder what can be done about it.

Hate to say...and it applies to far more than football:

Nutt'n honey.

Power, money and agenda...do what they do...and they don't ask you. Or me.

 

[StarBoyz83]

See a lot of people saying Garrett, boss and watt are constantly getting held like micah also.

 

[Hawkeye0202]

He's right but you gotta stop worrying/talking about it. Just play through it coz at the end of the day there's not a damn thing you can do except play your can.

 

[Adreme]

I feel like the other 31 teams, and their fanbases, would also claim they have to play against the refs as well. I promise you if you listen to the fanbases of the other 31 teams every single one of them thinks this way. I do not understand the love of having a victim complex but they all have it.

 

[CowboysLakerBamaFan]

Oh no.

I knew this would happen.

This rampant loser mentality has now totally infected the locker room.

You notice he didn't just say The Refs...but also Hostile Environment.

Every team has to play against the refs and Hostile Environment....(did you see a ref literally tackle Lamar Jackson for a safety last night?, or thr 100 yds of penalties SF got? Or the laundry basket of flags against Philly yesterday?).... but the teams with winner mentalities don't start feeling sorry for themselves...they just keep scratching and clawing. SF will be back better than ever. Philly is in complete disarray right now, where nothing at all is easy for them and nothing is clicking...but they refuse to give up or succumb to this victim mentality (I don't think it will help them survive this year, but this fighter's mentality will help in the future)

Us?

Whoa is me. Why Me? Why us? They're all out to get us. Not our fault. Someone needs to protect us...to help us. Help. We're victims. Whoa is me.

That's been the fans in HERE forever....and now it's obvious the players feel that way.

Disgusting....weak....soft.... millennial mindset.... please create a program to help us and give us something for free. Until Jerruh is gone....it will be one soft creampuff season after another

Same reason some people say "I shouldn't have to work at a job. Give me stuff for free"

 

[Surfguy]

Woe is me. Somebody get him some egg nog sans the Rum.

 

[Daillest88]

My only problem is parsons never gets a damn holding call and we all know damn well he gets held 70% of the time. What’s it been ? 10 weeks now?

 

[acr731]

If the offense still can't consistently move the damn ball, does it really matter if the refs are missing a few holding penalties here and there?

 

[JonesBoys]

Loser mentality. Complain about things you can’t control and use them as an excuse instead of concentrating on what you can control. If it wasn’t for the refs and hostile environments they would be Super Bowl champs.

 

[CTcowboy203]

Amazing the other teams who are contenders find a way to do this….hate this talk. I’m a pretty optimistic fan overall but these guys complaining to the refs is nauseating Imo.

 

[Whyjerry]

Maybe if Lawrence actually made a big play once in a while the refs BS wouldn’t matter. Biggest talker, least producer I can remember.

 

[Coogiguy03]

See a lot of people saying Garrett, boss and watt are constantly getting held like micah also.

Yet they still produce

 

[The Natural]

At some point you just have to go and hit somebody in the mouth. Baltimore went up to SF and kicked their *****, refs couldnt have saved them if they wanted to. Thats the kind of mentality this team needs. When you’re hitting on all cylinders; offense, defense, and special teams, there is no room for doubt. When one side only shows up and plays pne half of football, we get this weak crap.

FWIW, Eagles were flagged yesterday but they got some massive breaks from officials - the false start on the center was a key call and on the Giants last drive, two blatant DPIs were not called.

The whining abt the refs whether valid or not makes them look soft.
