Boldin sucked this game

[KingofCards]

He should have scored that touchdown and then 2 plays later Warner is hurt.

Game over.

What an idiot.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

That was the worst play on a ball I've ever seen by a completely wide open receiver.

 

[azdad1978]

The whole team sucked period!

 

[Shane]

That was bad. He really did have no reason at all to jump. But Q is still the man as far as Im concerned. Best WR on the team.

 

[AZ Shocker]

Q is the best player on the team no doubt, but even an eternal Cardinal optimist can see he has become "jaded". Poor kid...wish him well!

 

[Jetstream Green]

well

The way this team is playing, at least he caught the ball-Johnson would have dropped it.

 

[CronosCard]

"..And in this corner.."

King of Cards, if Boldin sucked this game, what about Fitzgerald? He caught only 3 passes for 41 yds.. Boldin 6 for 80+- Anyone saying Boldin sucked for one drop should just look at BJohnson, anf our head coach,,,
One positive!!!!
DG finally took the blame for the result this time instead of palming it all off on the players, other coaches.. that is at least showing me he actually watched the same game we did this time..
this was on the NFL network after the game coaches on the air


King of Cards look in the mirror, BABY!! I've broken all my mirrors in the house since I've cursed the Cards out so bad these last 3 weeks!!

Listen, it's hard to name a single player that played well in this game, excepting Neil Rackers and Scott Player. Ok, maybe Nathan Hodel.

For this team to be competitive, we'd have to have:

1. No serious injuries (see J.R. Redmond, Oliver Ross and Step, James Darling, Gerald Hayes, James Hodgins, etc.)
2. Not have numerous stupid penalties (false starts) every game
3. Have decent special teams and not celebrate signing 3-time cuts like Reggie Swinton.
4. Have good coaching.
5. Get some breaks.

So far none of the above have happened.

Football is a game of emotion & momentum. If he makes that catch, the outcome of this game would have been different. When Warner went down, this team DIED. Anyone questioning Warner's leadership impact on this team shouldn't. Boldin gets my GOAT of the game.

 

[KingofCards]

I never said Boldin was the only guy that sucked. I was just pointing that he sucked.


I am stilled pissed he fell down on that play. He looked like he was in a special olympics contest.

That was a backbreaker but to me the game turned on the fumble by McCown, but for some reason I can't get over the one hand catch by Boldin where green inexplicably didn't challenge the call? To me that sent a message that we're not ready to play.

Brutal, I'm still furious about this game.

 

[Pariah]

I can't get over the one hand catch by Boldin where green inexplicably didn't challenge the call?

Yeah, me too. At first glance, it seemed strange that he couldn't get 2 feet in because he was about 3 yards away from the sideline when he made the catch, then in replay you could very clearly see that he had two feet in easily--it was his third step that was out.

I wonder if Green hastily called a TO, and when word came down from the coaches box that it should be challenged he skipped it because he'd already spent one TO and didn't want to 'gamble' another?

It was complete idiocy. ON radio they instantly said challenge that, during the delay they assumed we had and then they said no we called TO I guess to review the play. It's pointless, if you're going to take a TO why not just throw the challenge flag instead. You get a break while they review it, and if you're wrong, you lose the TO anyways.

That's the stuff I completely didn't expect from Dennis Green but it's 2 years now of watching him appear like he's still working at ESPN and forgetting the things an NFL coach has to know. When to spike the ball, when to challenge a play, why you need to conserve TO's etc. We still can't get plays in on time, we're just a poorly coached team again and I just didn't expect that in year 2 of his regime.

You know instant replay really varies from referee to referee. I'd like to think Green had analyzed every referee and knew that Tony Corrente rarely overrules calls. I'd like to think that, but I really don't. I used to think that his calm almost casual demeanor on the sideline was a positive. Now I'm starting to wonder if he is sleepwalking thru the season.

To say that boldin sucked this game is a little....no a lot of exaggeration. THis guys gives it 110% every Sunday. So he mis judged the ball, at least he's catching the thing! Why is it no one is addressing the 7 or more false start penalties graciously given to us by Lenoard Davis. Does he need his hearing checked or is just not in the huddle when the snap count is given?

Why did you quote me if you weren't going to read what I said? Here I will type it slowly for you:

Take it for what it's worth and some of the Texas fans can correct me but I recall reading a few years ago that opposing players stole snap counts when they played Texas and part of the reason was that Texas had so many problems with false starts by Big and Mike Williams, that they just started going on one snap count to make it easier on them. AGain I have no idea if it was true or not it's been several years since Big was there but I remember reading at the time a comment that said something about Texas has so much talent and such a huge OL but they're so poorly coached they are using one snap count to reduce false starts.


Maybe they should check Big's hearing?

Ross had two false starts yesterday as well. There was a delay of game from taking too long to snap the ball. Something else is wrong. It's not just Davis having a problem with the snap count.

What an idiot.

I think he just slipped plain and simple. He was not a play where he had a brain cramp. Crap happens sometimes. He is perhaps our best receiver. I thought it was Fitz but am coming around to think it is Boldin who goes over the middle and will catch a ball.

Rackers is obviously our Pro Bowl players. He could lead the league in scoring the way he is going.

I am sorry, although it was a wonderful catch, there was no way that he had both feet inbounds. If he would have dragged his right foot, he would have been inbounds. Denny was right to not challenge that call, there DEFINITELY was not conclusive evidence to overturn the call on the field.

How do we get pissed when a guy slips down? Can happen to anyone at any time. He did not drop the ball. He got open. He did not have a brain cramp. He simply slipped down. You see it all the time if the NFL. Unfortunately with our team it is magnified because we cannot score a TD.

Our coaching staff really does suck. I am not so sure they could take a good team and do much with them. What on this earth are we doing with an OL Coach who has never coached and an OC who has little experience? Is Green a total idiot or what is going through his mind? What the hell is Graves and Bidwill doing? Are they afraid of hurting DG's feelings? They should put a leash on him. I doubt he will ever get a job coaching again or would be welcome back into a TV booth.

He took 3 steps from what I saw. The only question is control and in my mind he controlled the ball with one hand the whole way, he never used the other hand to pull it in to indicate he was bobbling.

Oh well in the end it's one play but that we didn't challenge it to me was an oversight not Green thinking it was the right call.

 

[CaptTurbo]

Boldin, like Warner is probably problem #50 and #51 on the 53 man roster.

 

[KingofCards]

He didn't slip. I had it tivo'ed and rewatched. He just spazzed out, jumped to catch for no reason at all, and than fell down.

There was no slip.
