    There you go! And you would already have a name for it (PWP).

    What does PWP stand for? Playing with Poise or Pimpin with poise?

    I see some potential in Cockerel. I think he will be good in time. Yeah, coaches need to get on him about the tackling.

    He had been playing with a cast on his hand. Didn't notice if that was the case against the Seahawks or not.

    Has some good qualities, but lacks physicality (IMHO).

    Well, here we go. Dunno what the source is basing their info of Boykin replacing Blake this week, but perhaps it's what we'll see. If so, hope Boykin makes the most of it.

    The way I see it is if Boy King plays and he does well it certainly should make fans wonder what the heck our coaches were thinking

    I am by no way saying Blake is good but it feels every year for the last 3-4 years we say the same thing. Our secondary sucks, can't cover, Troy is washed up, Ike is done, Lebeau has lost it and the league has caught onto him. Well all them are gone and yeah we have gotten a bit better but one thing still is the same.....our secondary sucks!!!

    I hate the fact that we play off so far and give up the easy pass, and the fact that we play off so far AND STILL GIVE UP THE DEEP PASS!!!!!!! Now we have new faces back there and get the same result, is it Butler's scheme or is it Tomlin saying he wants to play that way, IDK. What I do know is I want our guys not giving up the big 10 yrd cushion and if we get beat deep so be it we already are getting beat long and short with this style.

    I feel we have a very talented front 7 and by playing off we are not giving them a chance to get to the qb as much. Good qb's adjust when they get hit and dump off quick thus making our pass rush a non factor. Also one last thing on my rant......when we play a top TE in the nfl put one of our best cover guy on him and double him with a lb. Take him out of the game plan and make the qb look other spots.

    I feel like this is more on coaching then players, like I said in the beginning I am not sticking up for Blake I just feel our system is set up to fail, jmo.
