What would you do with Jameis Winston after this move?

[Silver Surfer]

Backup journeyman QB is insubordinate to his head coach, causing the the coach embarassment after the game.

Sounds like they all did it as a team, kind of hard to discipline one single player.

He's the QB. Play doesn't happen if he doesn't call it and turn around and hand it off.

I know but don’t think anything comes of it. Heck, they might even be laughing at Smith in the locker room

 

[JD_KaPow]

They really wanted to get Williams a TD after he hadn't gotten one all season.

It will blow over. It's a nothingburger.

Jameis Winston:

Heisman Trophy winner, first overall draft pick in the 2015 draft, loaded with talent, but he is a total idiot.

He clearly showed himself to be an idiot while at FSU and now he is a 30 year old idiot.

I mean seriously stealing crab legs?

I thought it was hilarious watching Arthur Smith cry about it. It’s the pros, not little league.

Exactly, not sure why the Falcons HC was crying about it. The score was 41-17, who cares if they scored one more?

 

[TheCoolFan]

Dennis Allen is done...the Saints might as well fire him too. The team doesn't respect the HC if they were okay with doing something like that behind his back. As for the play itself, I don't mind them trying to punch it in there but the fact that they did it from a kneel down formation was cheap. If Jameis just calls a regular RB handoff and they score, I bet it doesn't become as big of a deal.

What Would Jimmy Do?

 

[zrinkill]

I would have cut him.

Because it’s a bush league move that will get guys hurt. If they lined up in a normal formation that’s one thing but lining up in victory formation then running a play is a great way to get guys hurt, D lineman don’t fire out when they see victory, pull this crap and they will.

Sounds like a sucka to me....your team sucks

 

[Flamma]

Now it all makes sense. Why would a coach go into victory formation and run the ball for a meaningless and disrespectful TD? Because he didn't. Players did it. The Falcons players might remember that next year.

Ahhhhh.... No. This will not.
The Falcons will carry it into the next few years every time they play the Saints.

The next few years? No chance. Maybe the next game. The fans might, but the new coaches and the players won't care.

He reinforced my opinion of him. You can't fix stupid.
