How the hell is Beasly too short? Ever see Edleman of the pats or Welker of the Broncs. Qb's throw through lanes for the most part. I'm not buying it. Seems to me that Beasley should be good for at least 4-6 targets per game.

She is a cheerleader and goes and does cheerleading stuff. Now I get that Charles is in marketing but outside of the East plaza but outside of TC and draft time she is going to have a lot more free time. She doesn't have USO appearances, TV spots, and daily practice.

I think people's main issue with Sydney is a big reason why a lot of men are frustrated with women: she doesn't talk about objects and the like but rather she talks about how she feels. It's being romantic as opposed to empirical but Laughenburg does it a LOT too and you don't see his twitter feed slamming him with descriptions of how much of an idiot he is because he said he didn't like something.

I just see a lot of people reacting to stereotyped gender roles. If the show would go Howard Stern and identify her as a the vacuous cheerleader then she would be celebrated I bet.

My GF thinks Babe Laughenberg is the biggest idiot on TV.

Fair point, however the combo of beasley romo doesnt compare size wise to brady and peyton, both around 6'5. Also edelman has about 3 inches on beasely. Not saying his heights an exuse for lack of targets but it should be pointed out.

-Dez fighting the ball throughout, Dennis used the term "dez friendly" which weeden was not and Romo is
Yes, Weeden was a big problem, but Dez has dropped some balls that hit his hands. A WR that wants a mega-contract should not do that.

-Broaddus talks about the punter costing field position battles and being a problem
Did he? I pause when they punt and take a break, then fast forward though the punts. The blocked FG in this game and a blocked punt in another game were big problems.

- Broaddus says when people dont want to bash team, they bash coaches. For 6 weeks of winning streak nothing wrong with coaches but now not the feeling. Group agrees.
-Eatman talks about criticism of coaching staff adjustments. Mentions Boys being outscored in first quarters, yet Boys outscore teams in the 3rd. Adjustments must be working
There have been some questionable issues with the offensive play-calling. They didn't have these problem when they were winning because those defenses didn't present the same challenges.

-Injuries to the O-Line very impactful
Are they? Parnell is definitely not a problem. I don't think he has given up a sack and he's a better run blocker than Free. Maybe Bern was a problem, I've not reviewed his performance.

-Beasley to short for Qbs to see (not trying to be funny)
Weeden didn't see Beasley open multiple times and Weeden is taller than Romo (6-4 vs 6-2). That's just a clown comment by those "reporters".

This is the oddest time for somebody to make that comment because Weeden is 2 inches taller than Romo. If it was true, then it's bad coaching which they just said isn't an issue.

I have heard the comment made by guys on the show before but not regarding weeden.

Good point by BB and I'm not sure why we don't try to upgrade at that position. I'm not a fan of Chris Jones, especially with this D, field position is huge.

My problem with Jones is that he never seems to get any punts down inside the 10 yd line. It's always the 15-20, which is not terrible, but he never pins teams real deep. His advantage is that he is Bailey's holder and they probably don't want to mess with that.

He was paraphrasing for the recap, but the point was that not having Leary available to dig out the DTs or to stretch the left side of the line for Murray to cut back probably hurt this game where things were so tight inside.

Jones is also the holder for Bailey's FG's......don't want to mess with Mr reliable's system....its the best in the league.

That's an excellent post Fuzz.

Escobar must be too short to see also. That is usually the case when you lock on to the first target.

Yep, its hard as hell to see anybody else on the field when you stare at Dez before the snap, stare at Dez as you are dropping back, stare at Dez as you are throwing the ball 5 feet behind him, and stare at Dez as he is giving you some sort of hand gesture.

:laugh:
