When you have a turnover, you should have your best in there.
BP was so worried about giving JJ a rest that he made a bad error there.
there were several times when we were not in good position they could have rested JJ - but they pick there. JJ played well- probably about as good as one could expect against a D that was really keying on him. And the Skins D is good.

There IS NO WAY JJ should not have been in there.

Inexcusable.

We have good depth at RB. It would be dumb to not play them all. In fact, I think he should of got more rest. He didn't look good in the 4th quarter, despite the OL opening some holes for him.

Like I said, there are times to rest him, and times to use him. BP picked the wrong time. We could have iced the game there.

Exactly - good thing Rack isn't in charge - he'd take out all the best players when the game is on the line to give them rest.

:rolleyes:

Oh now we're going with the "Good thing so and so isn't in charge" BS now?


*** did I do to you anyway? Don't understand why you're starting s*** with me. It was probably just the other guy's turn in the rotation. And I'm thinking LONG TERM here. JuJo has yet to prove he can last a season. IMO, it's a good idea to get the other RBs some playing time. They're not too shabby you know.

But whatever.

that is the point- just because it was the other guys turn does not mean he should have been in there. PICK YOUR MOMENTS- don't just go with the plan. BP harped on getting JJ rest and he put TOO MUCH emphasis on it.

I'm not starting anything with you - just because someone disagrees with you doesn't mean they are starting something with you.

Perhaps you can point out where I said the other RB'S WEREN'T too shabby.

My point wasn't about the other RB's .......it was that you play your best players at crunch time, you don't rest them.

You disagree with that - fine.

I don't know how that translates into "starting something" with you but I see in reading numerous other posts you seem to have this same problem with others.

Considering that JuJo looked winded and slow in the 4th quarter, I'd say he didn't get ENOUGH rest. I can only think of two drives where he was actually out of the game.


And let's not act like having JuJo in the game at that time guaranteed anything. He was doing "Ok" up to that point. Nothing special. He only averaged 3.8 yards per carry in the first half. Sure it would of been nice to have him in there, but it's not like he was replaced by Troy Hambrick or Eddie George.

Go back and read your post.

"Good think Rack isn't in charge"... that's not starting something? If anything it's YOU that's acting childish cuz I don't agree with YOU.

It's not that I agree or disagree, I just don't think that made the difference between winning and losing.

Actually I don't. I often have the problem with you though. There was no need to post the childish reply "Good thing Rack's not in charge" trying to buddy up with Burmafrd.


But, again, whatever.

If you take a phrase like "good thing Racks not in charge" personally, that's too bad. It was tongue and cheek and that phrase is thrown about almost on a daily basis on this board.

Here's the difference between you and me. You called me an "arse" in another thread.

I have never called you, or anyone, ever, anything. But, again, whatever.

Time to go to work.

Have nice day.

:)

My point is that JJ could have been rested at other times- but he was NOT. He was rested THEN. How many times did we get the ball without good field position or NOT after a turnover- he could have been rested THEN.

If it were an isolated incident I wouldn't think it was a big deal. But since you were attacking me in 2 or 3 other threads I made an exception.


And I called you an arse cuz you were being an arse. You still are being an arse.


But at least you didn't send me several racist PMs. Gotta give you credit for that.

Listen, since I'm a Senior member here too, and this is really an unrelated MNF matter, and I realize that You can still tell me to bud out, but I felt I could step in with my 2 cents.

This isn't exclusive to your fandom -- we have the same matters over at the Eagles MB. If you had 2 lousy more points you wouldn't even be having this conversation. You have heightened feelings and it's understandable.

But in all fairness, I clearly saw a " :rolleyes: " depicted in the post that initiated this whole thing. That sarcasm icon denotes ...the poster was not serious!

Walk away from it.

By the way, I felt that JJ should have been placed in the game during crunch time ...if for no other reason than keeping the Skins defense honest.

Now go ahead and vent away on me -- I'll understand -- I know how it is.
