What about the offside call. They blew the whistle early instead of giving the Rams a free play then had a 5 minute discussion.

.

That was BS. Stafford was ready to punish them.
I was listening to something, I can't remember if it was a sports radio show analyst or post game presser, but the guy was saying that Stafford set that play up perfectly. The whole game he had done his "Turbo Set!" scream at the exact same way and cadence and then that play he changed it to delay the hike by half a second to make the defense jump and get free play and the fucking refs blew it dead. It was the perfect setup where you use that kind of thing when you're deep in your own territory. I would have been pissed too if I was Stafford.

I fucking hate the refs. I already see a roughing the passer penalty on a 3rd down stop that in review was a clean hit by AD.

Just for fun.

I do have to wonder if it's a matter of such high expectations after watching them get out the gate looking like the best team in the league that people are now jumping off the Kliff (pun intended) after a horrible game in just the K's first playoff appearance...

I'm not sure the rest of our division has a single good GM. Lynch I guess the jury is still out on but Keim is bad and Schneider had one draft on defense and the draft he got lucky with Wilson in the 3rd round.

Yeah I think it's ridiculous. It's hard to win in the NFL. Kliff's tendency to wilt down the stretch is something they knew about when they hired him.

They need to invest more in their lines. No QB can consistently perform at a high level when he's got bad protections. I actually like Murray. I think he's got the competitive fire you want at the position, you just gotta design the offense around his skills and get him in space.

Media is gonna do media. They're gonna act all outraged at the collapse but the team needs to be better than that and look at the whole picture. First off at what point do you say "this QB isn't going to get it done." For me it wouldn't be now. I would not have drafted Murray but being where they are now if I'm in their shoes I'm still trying to make it work. Focus the lines to be able to beat the Rams first off, have a strong draft, maybe add another weapon to the offense, and see if Murray can raise the bar in 2022.

I dunno man. He seems like a whiney little bitch to me. He looks like he's pouting any time things don't go right for him. I don't see the fire.

Also, when he goes down so easy, even when there was a path to run up the middle, I think the team looses some of its fight. If he is not fighting for every yard why should they. QB isn't just physical ability. It is also leadership. Just talking a good game don't mean shit. Actions are what players see and he didn't show any fight.

By the way, I would be looking for his replacement. But I haven't bought in to him from the beginning.
