Roy Helu - once again a positive for the game.

I knock off points for fumbling. Don't care how many yards he ran for. But I would say he was neutral not a positive. It didn't cost us but I dont' reward a guy for it.

Helu, for the most part, has been a positive ever since he stepped on the ...

Now you guys see what I have been griping about since mid point last year. This is far from the first time that KS has abandoned the run game while it was working .... or evidence of some particularly bazaar strategy in play selection.

Of course, it couldn't be more clear that neither Beck nor ...

I can't remember the last time I witnessed such hideous, illogical play calling.
Who in god's green earth abandons a run game that is going well in favor of pursuing a passing game with a QB that, for the most part, throws either too high, too far behind, or into triple coverage? Kyle , week in and ...

It was very evident that he was improving week over week. Not just improving , but largely eliminating the previous week's errors.

Improving? You're grasping at straws. Beck hasn't approved in any significant way from start 1. He has awful field vision, is skittish in the pocket, and is way too ...

Beck was sacked ten times against Buffalo. The pressure was immense. Yes 3-5 of those sacks could have been avoided if he was dumping the ball off or throwing it away, but he's going to make those mistakes considering it was only his sixth game. Of course he's going to become Captain Checkdown in ...

Both Mike and Kyle Shanahan are guilty atrocious decision making. If I have to see Torrain make another failed attempt at a sweep, my eyes might explode leaving me pleasantly blinded, so I don't have to witness any further bad play calling. Just that fact that Torrain was the sole back for so long ...

Yup. Shanahan is second guessing himself, and starting to have the look of a coach in the midst of a panic attack.

Hey, Coach! Pick a bad quarterback, and stick with him. It's not as if you are winning any rings this year. For crying out loud...



Correct, both QB's are bad, but why do you ...

Today was a blaring endictment of Shanahan's poor power of observation.
Beck played against three of the tougher teams on the schedule thus far, and did so with a absurd front line, no moss, no hightower. With each week he obviously improved major shortcomings of the prior week. The dolphins were ...

One thing is for certain, Beck is not the greatest QB. But, I have to say he's not been the on the receiving end of lady luck's good wishes. First, he lands in Miami as a third stringer on the WORST imaginable team, and is thrown in for four games. It's impossible to tell much of anything from that ...

I think we have a good shot at winning the next 3 games coming up. Flame me if you want, but I still don't see the gloom and doom that others are seeing.



I agree with you that we could win at least two of the next three based upon positive changes being made on the OL and Beck consistantly ...

Here's the honest, blunt reality "The Law of Nobody" cannot be ignored or circumvented. That law states that in this day and age, nobody wins with a nobody under center ... nobody.



Adam Smith is a very pedestrian quarterback who had the good fortune to have Harbaugh design a scheme around ...

OK, I beg the differ though. The Giants even depleted are going to win the division. Why? Because they actually have depth.


I agree with you that depth can correlate to success in the face of starter injuries. However, it's seems apparent that the first four games were a bit "lighter" than the ...

This is true and I give you that my Redskin brother but, why should it be different for Beck vs. Grossman? Why doesn't Rex get that same treatment that you want Beck to have?[/quote]

Rex's games-
We were healthy, the giants were greatly stuggling with injuries.
Arizona was particularly awful ...

I often wonder if Vick's team mates say "What's up dawg" when greeting him.

Nuff said I hope.

I listen to Wise daily and he doesnt seem to grasp all the variables before he speaks, unlike his more competent co-host CJ. On that note ...

It seems VERY likely that J.Beck will be the starter here for several years

I've been staunchly arguing the people who bash Beck with zero intelligence or observation regarding the rest of the O and his experience. And I think it's possible. But he hasn't shown me anything, to say it's "VERY ...

"Back to preseason football again. Remember we are playing the Dolphins this week. They make any QB look good."




The dolphins have improved their game quite a bit in the last several weeks, which was apparent in the 31 to 3 stomping of KC, and the fight they gave the giants. They certainly ...

It seems VERY likely that J.Beck will be the starter here for several years.
Essentially, he is a rookie and is making rookie mistakes, but with each passing
week he is quickly eliminating many of the prior week's shortcomings.
This week you will see him combine getting rid of the ball quicker ...
