  • Finally, a coach with some adjustments. Get him off the field or limit his role.

    I only call it has as I see it.

    Bitonio looked pretty decent and tough.

    West looked awesome.

    Crowell looked awesome.

    Kirksey is going to be a steal.

    Desir is a total unknown.

    Manziel is a total unknown.

    Justin Gilbert looks like he belongs on another fucking planet. It was pitiful and hard to watch how bad he is.

  • So when did you rewatch the game?

  • Gilbert was playing his first nfl game against a quarterback that is not elite but is definitely in the second tier. He'll be fine.

  • Stop saying he'll be fucking fine. You have no fucking clue whether he'll be "fine". The only evidence that we have so far, is fucking horrible play. That's what we know. We can hope for the best, but don't give me your sunshine pumping bullshit "don't worry about it he'll be fine" line.Pull your head out of your ass.

  • Forget to take your meds?

  • He'll be fine. Maybe one day he'll even be good. This shit that rookies have to come into the league and make the pro bowl year one is unrealistic

  • Skrine looked like dry dog shit for his first couple of years. haden did not look elite his first year. mingo looks better than he did last year.

    to succeed in his position you need to learn how to foul without getting called for a foul..that takes awhile....give the kid a chance to adjust....if he doesn't improve...then throw him off the train....i know, he sucked in this game...and maybe he'll always suck...but not likely...there were enough missed tackles in this game to make it clear he wasn't the only one who needs to improve....

  • Again, CB is the hardest position in the NFL, and there has NEVER been a rookie who has stepped in and performed at a high level right away. He'll take his lumps and get better. He shouldn't have had as many reps as he did, but we don't have much of a choice. Who do you want to see? Aaron Berry? or the other rookies K'waun Williams? Robert Nelson? Desir? Be careful what you wish for...

  • Antonio Langham was pretty damn good his rookie year.

  • He'll be fine. Maybe one day he'll even be good. This shit that rookies have to come into the league and make the pro bowl year one is unrealistic

    You have no grounds to say "he'll be fine" other than pure opinion, no evidence to support your rosy theory. You probly loved Richardson too. I believe what I see, and as of right now, today, Gilbert sucks. I don't care if he has all the potential in the world. Doesn't matter until he makes plays.

    Sadly, I have to agree with this on Gilbert. CBus Brownie is right on point.

    No one is asking him to play lights out but he looks like he doesn't even belong on an NFL roster.

    Shazier looked like a 5 year veteran and Roby looked like a stud.

    Remember this:

    "Richardson will be fine"

    "Weeden will be fine"

    "Taylor will be fine"

    "Little will be fine"

    "Schwartz will be fine"

  • Antonio Langham was pretty damn good his rookie year.

    Really?

    I guess that proves me wrong...

  • If Gilberts demoted, then he should at least return kicks. Dude can fly, and Benji looked not so good this week. Lets use him.

    Anything but corner. Move him to fucking receiver if we have to. He couldn't cover a high school corner.

    I hope you man up and admit it when you're wrong (as usual). But can we please wait a couple games (or maybe a whole season) before we decide how good or bad our rookie is...

    You and CBus are ridiculous, and you sound like a couple dramatic women complaining about a new character on Desperate Housewives you don't like...

    I was just saying it can be done. AL was a beast that year.

  • Gilbert is a beast. He makes plays all the time in practice. It's during gametime situations where the offense is foreign and he's not yet sure what to do, that requires thinking and you can't be thinking when you are playing Cornerback in the NFL. You have to trust your preparation and react, instantly. Rookie Cornerbacks have the hardest job in the NFL, especially in this day and age, what with all the rules to help WRs and the offense. As others have said- JayG will be fine.
