For your edification, I listened to it despite my finding Venturi to be a pandering buffoon - along with "Zach." Everything he said about the team is exactly what I said to you when I quoted you. So, I guess I got validated by a buffoon. Not sure how I feel about that. I'll have to meditate on that one. As for his criticisms about Bradford, I can accept those, even though he's contradicting himself as he offers them. He says the O-line can't protect the edge, the run game can't find the edge, and the defense HAS no edge. And then he goes on to say that Bradford doesn't wow him enough. Quite the dichotomy. lol. As far as Bradford not giving enough facial expressions as he leaves the field ... meh. That's not something that should be all that concerning to anyone.
Anyway. I've already given you my personal criticisms of Bradford in the past, so your claim that I'm blaming everyone but him rings hollow. A pure pocket passer needs the things that causes Venturi to criticize him. Do you not see the dilemma there? Bradford is at his very best when he has time to plant his foot and step into a throw. Well, yeah. But when you just get done telling "Zach and Rammer" that the offense isn't giving him the opportunity to do it, how can you criticize it for not happening? I disagree strongly that he lacks football instincts, but I have no way of proving he does. Nor does Venturi have a way of proving he doesn't. I just got done watching his two worst games from last year, and I saw him stand tall in the pocket despite being sacked 11 times, hit 31 times, and pressured far more than that over that two-game span. I also saw him deliver strikes as he was being hit, receivers dropping balls, backs missing blocking assignments, and some pretty crappy throws as well.
In order to intelligently debate Venturi, I started to compile a video with his audio from that interview while showing plays that contradict everything he was saying. And then I came to my senses. I figured, what's the point anymore? His critics aren't changing their minds. He'll have to be an active participant on a team with one unified purpose. Playing together, and executing across the board on their way to picking up a bunch of wins. If they can't do that, someone's gonna get the blame, and it'll most likely be him. If they DO do that, then there won't be much complaining about anything.
So ... we'll see what happens. Only 97 more days.
