I don't know anything about Marion Barber, but from what I can gather from 140-character snippets, he's not very good at his job.

Barber's awful plays may deflect or overshadow the overall deer in headlights awful coaching. Perhaps a larger factor in the game. 25 yard cushion on the edges. Do DBs ever practice defense with a 25 yard cushion? the downfield threat they were afraid of was minimal. That seemed like an extreme version, up-by-20 points version of prevent defense.greenback44 wrote:I don't know anything about Marion Barber, but from what I can gather from 140-character snippets, he's not very good at his job.
Thank God Tebow made them pay.

At least they can back me up on how horrible Tebow's receivers are.

Re: 2011 NFL season
I invoked the name of the prevent defense because I still haven't even begun to forgive Lovie Smith for SB XXXVI, but it's not really applicable to a defense that gives up a 25 yard cushion and still only covers some of the people downfield. What the hell happened on that touchdown pass?Freed Roger wrote:Barber's awful plays may deflect or overshadow the overall deer in headlights awful coaching.

Ha yes! A bitter ending for the Cowboys tonight (blocked FG attempt, after a Giant TO on a successful kick), and enjoying the brief replay of Jerry Jones being pissy.

Re: 2011 NFL season
I know it's petty, but after reading so much obnoxious bile over at NSBB regarding the Cardinals during the Series (and throughotu the Pujols negotations as well), I got a real kick out of that Bears GDT.

Left ESPN on when I went to work this morning and now my dog answers to "Tim Tebow."

That's not as funny as you think. I actually have a dog named "Elway".
