Twitter: Everson Griffen and Jeff Cavanaugh Twitter Spat

[Fletch]

Oh, boy. His job is to cover the story, not to insert himself into it.

Yeah, that was a bit unnecessary by Jeffrey.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Did you watch any of the run plays that went to his side? Beast mode is hardly what I would use to describe it.

Quinn could get to the passer but teams used his eagerness to take an outside rush to their advantage in the run game.

Quinn at the end of the day is a pass rushing specialist. Expecting him to be anything other than that is wishful thinking.

 

[Valkyr]

I always figure millionaires are swimming around in their money like Scrooge McDuck and not caring about Twitter

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

To be fair to Griffen....how many people expected him by week 2 to be who he was? People will say Aldon Smith came back from a 5 year layoff but mind you Aldon Smith was a much better player than Griffen and he's in by no means the same guy he was 5 years ago.

 

[CATCH17]

Oh, boy. His job is to cover the story, not to insert himself into it.

I mean.. He handled it perfectly.

Griffin inserted Jeff into the story if anything and Jeff spoke to him like a reporter. Well done.

 

[eromeopolk]

E. G. has not played strong and D-Law is week at the knees.
D Law and E. G. better change this tune to Gangsta Gangsta

 

[Hennessy_King]

Jeff aint lyin. No one on the d line can honestly say theyve been playin good football. I mean just watch the tape it doesnt lie

 

[nalam]

Griffen about to get 5 sacks next week

If it motivates him , good. But professional athletes should not need external motivation like that , hope now he goes after D law, the heatless boy

 

[dogunwo]

Yeah, that was a bit unnecessary by Jeffrey.

I'm laughing at everyone saying that Cavanaugh was just doing his job, but will criticize the heck out of Stephen A Smith for the same thing. The difference is, one you like, one you don't.

 

[Beaker42]

Oh, boy. His job is to cover the story, not to insert himself into it.

Griffey’s inserting him into it by going after him instead of upping his play. Maybe he’s already grown accustomed to the country club atmosphere in the DFW metro area.

 

[Beaker42]

If you met Griffen in a dark alley and had been criticizing his game, you wouldn't like your odds.

I’d definitely feel more fear than opposing offenses have so far.

 

[montgod]

I am sure he does because no one on our d line scares me at all...

Well... outside the football field, I would think Griffin would be eligible to be scary given his past... (looking around as I posted this)

LLLOOLLL, love this song. LLLOOOLLL

 

[cowboyed]

Exactly how long has Cavanaugh been playing Griffen's position under Nolan's scheme?

 

[J-man]

If you met Griffen in a dark alley and had been criticizing his game, you wouldn't like your odds.

Ummm, why are you meeting Griffen, or anyone, in a dark alley? Sounds shady to me.

 

[ChronicCowboy]

These dudes should stay off Twatter

 

[GhostOfPelluer]

No, Cavanaugh made himself part of the story by responding to Griffen. Its not Griffen's job to facilitate what's part of the story or not. Jeff fairly criticized the player and then took the bait when the player took exception to that. Jeff should have sent him a pm and squashed it. Journalistic responsibility is on Cavanaugh, not the player.

Do you even know what journalistic responsibility is? If so, as a former journalist, I'd like to hear your explanation.

 

[gimmesix]

I have trouble knocking Griffen after he had our only sack when we needed it most against Atlanta.

 

[BlueStar22]

This is clown ish. First Griffin should not have responded. In a condensed training camp, when did he get there, Week 3 of 4? Come the *** on. Cavanaugh sounds like a lot of people here and gets paid to cover the team. This is trash.

I also will call out Griffen as well. Dawg, why are you searching your name? He didn't @ you. You searched your name and got offended. You can't/won't win this.

 

[BlueStar22]

These dudes should stay off Twatter

Being on twitter isn't the problem. Searching your own name is. That's the only way he would have seen that without him being @.
