^ Coaching staffs change like the weather, and they all want to bring in their guys to run their systems. It's really lack of continuity that kills the team. I think we hit rock bottom after they fired chud. No one worth a damn is going to come here, so now we're stuck.
I thought Pettine was going to be more flexible after all the talk we heard upon his hiring, but he's starting to look like a stubborn ass who's gonna run his system even if it doesn't work without all the right pieces. With Farmer picking out the pieces who knows if he'll ever get the right ones. I think one of them has to go before the ship really gets righted, and at this point it's got to be less detrimental to part ways with Farmer.

I see what you did there LOL.Um......ok......
I have never played on an NFL team so I may be wrong but I wouldn't think that the GM would have much effect on Sunday's other than the actual players on or not on (Dwayne Bowe) the field.
I have seen no evidence that these two have been able to work together. Farmer seems to be an ego maniac and wants prove to the world that you can win with a hodgepodge of no name offensive skill players and aging defensive veterans.
The last thing the team needs is a toxic power struggle between the coach and GM.

FWIW, in terms of skill players, Duke Johnson is 3rd among rookies for receptions and receiving yards.

So Pettine may have been right on Johnny at halftime
Count me in as one of those ready to crucify Pettine for his halftime comments on Johnny but this film analysis supports Pettine's statements that Johnny was leaving a lot of plays on the field.
SB Nation: Johnny Manziel isn't ready to start not even close
Wow... even I did not think JM was this bad...
"On almost every one of Manziel's positive passing plays he actually also lost yards. The only passing plays where that wasn't the case were generally the screens that he threw. On plays where he had to actually decide who to throw to based on the route combinations and coverage, Manziel almost inevitably found ways to minimize the offense's production.
By the end of the game it didn't look like any of his receivers were still running their routes as hard as they had been. Probably because at that point they were no longer expecting him to actually sit in the pocket and go through his reads which made their crisp routes null and void."
Edit: A couple of the writer's "critiques" are a tad over-the-top, but others are valid.

Ouch....that's some pretty harsh commentary. I didn't read the article, I'm too lazy and i figure enough of you will do it and give me the highlights but it sounds fairly negative.

we won't be getting Bosa with no 1B pick. I don't see him dropping out of the top 3. If Blt ends up with the #1 pick, that's likely who they're gonna take. And that is our worst nightmare. Consider if JJ Watt was just even 70% of the player he has been, and he landed somewhere in the North....we would hate his guts .

The cliffs notes are what some of us have been saying all along......he doesnt see or hit the open man nearly enough.....and breaks out of the pocket, when he could have just thrown the ball to the open receiver(who he didnt see)....
There is a reason Josh hits 65-70% of his passes, while Johnny hits 50-55%.....(with the same OL & WRs).....vision....

Simplified even more....he's just not very good. Got it. Can we move on from this midget now?

He'll be our QB for the next two years. Better get used to it.

I don't think that will be the case but if so...I'll root for him just like I have all the other QB's we've had.

Not even making it up:When he played for Alabama?

950 yards, 11 YEs. Either there is a football player in there somewhere, or our OL - with Shaun luavao and Jason pinkston at guard I think - was out of this world good.

yep. throw friggin james harrison on the field in a brown's uniform and i'll root for him......
uh, wait!

The,team,has,no eye for talent. How,do you pass,on Carr or Bridgewater and take Justin Gilbert? And as for the running game who knows! Draughn is gone and so is Turbin. Bowe sucks and so does,the Front office.
