    Lost some respect for Ballard after reading this. You call him before day 2 and give him false hope of getting drafted there (knowing he has character issues and you have no intention of picking him that high), then you don't even grab him on day 3 when you have 5 picks in the 4th and 5th rounds (where he was supposed to go). You can also add to this that Basham has been a bust so far, and Avery Moss has done more coming off the bench and starting in just two games since Vernon got hurt. So he gave Moss false hope, and also made the wrong decision in picking Basham over him. That's definitely a strike against Ballard in my eyes.

    How is basham a bust and he hasn't really played? Lol

    I understand what you are saying... but what you are saying is not based on reality.  They don't care if "WE" know what he can do, THEY know what he can do and THEY base that on what a player does in practice and in the film room and on the game plan tests and in the weight room and in the positional meetings and by the questions he asks or doesn't ask and by his understanding of the play book, etc.

     

    You say you want the coaches to let him earn his starting job but that is not want you want you want the coaches to forget all the other stuff and give him playing time because he's a second rounder.  That is not earning it, a player earns playing time by focusing on the above.

    Ok well answer this do you think they would've treated luck the same way if he had "maturity issues his rookie season???" I don't think so something just isn't right about this situation but oh well all of that will be thrown out the window this sunday because melvin is ruled out and someone has to take his place and I'm pretty sure it's wilson

    So, they should give him the starting spot so he can earn the starting spot?

     

    Who can argue with circular logic like that?

    You not listening at all.....he wasn't starting anyway he's behind melvin for some reason but we don't know how wilson is until they let him play

    So if I understand you correctly....

     

    You're saying they are all lying.

     

    Pagano is.   Monachino is.    And now (and this is my favorite)  you're saying Ballard is lying about this too.

     

    OK....     but if you're going to make that claim then you better be able answer this....

     

    Why?

     

    Why would they be lying?    Why would they do that?    What's the upside for doing that?    What do they gain?

     

    Because what you're really saying is the fan base here knows better about what is going on and what to do than the coaching staff AND the front office.

     

    I look forward to your answer....

     

    Bottom line it's all business....telling the fans your qb probably won't play this year will hurt ticket sales and as an owner you wouldn't want that and being that this is ballard first time ever as a gm to a team he's just gonna let this play out until next season when he cleans house so whatever chuck does now it won't matter because he won't be here and we're rebuilding this defense.....that's my answer

    Seriously people?

     

    Pagano has explained it.

     

    Monachino has explained.

     

    Ballard hasn't changed it.

     

    And yet poster after poster keeps insisting that they are right and the coaches and Ballard are wrong.

     

    Jyst the latest example of a passionate but ignorant fan base.

     

    Dear God....        :facepalm:

    Look at where luck is....ballard said he would play this season and so did irsay....has he played yet? No so just because they give the media an answer doesn't mean it's true they just answer questions and keep moving. You see how chuck and others sugar coat their answers

    I wasn't talking about his play on the field.  I was talking about immaturity.  Isn't that what he is being accused of?  They treated SMith the same way and they eventually let him go.  I hope Wilson is not the same.  We know he can play.

    Well smith turned out to be trash anyway

    Look at the thread.    Go back and read what Superman posted.    It's the full Pagano quote.    It's not the nonsense that posters here have been stating.

     

    This is about much more than special teams.    It's about how to be a pro day after day.    It's about earning your spot on the team.

     

    Go read Superman's post.    It's toward the top of this thread.    You'll have a more complete understanding of what is going on....     Honestly.

     

     

    I know that's what chuck said I'm saying he's dumb for thinking that there's plenty of guys on the team who play special teams but he wants to bench the one player who can help the secondary and break up passes which we need but he'd rather put a bum out there like milton smh

    When you're a rookie and not playing well the earning starts with practice.

     

    Pagano is literally telling people the Wilson may be talented but he has a lot to learn about being a pro.

     

    Pagano is doing the right thing.   He's making Wilson EARN everything he gets.

     

     

    Lol what? Learning special teams is something minor they can do that during the off-season you don't bench 2nd round pick just because he hasn't learned special teams yet they already knew he had no experience at it he's just a good corner and leave him to that it will definitely improve the secondary

    Milton can play special teams, but the problem is he can't play any football. Give me the guy that is so so on special teams, but can actually play football. And that guy is Quincy Wilson.    Jeesh!

     

    And where the hell was Desir yesterday?  Was he inactive or something?

    Yeah desir was inactive too but I expect both of them to play sunday

  10. Hilton wasn't wrong when he called the o-line out somebody had to light the fire they played like trash yesterday and there's no excuse for it either go hard or go home now we have 2 tough road games coming up I expect a loss for both games
