more accountable for my actions obviously but it's
too heated game and I'm hurting out there and playing on half
a leg,
I'm getting dragged to the ground whatever
could hurt me along with screwing our team.
and yeah, maybe
some of them weren't as blatant as I thought, but
I don't know. It's I think there just needs to be more
accountability on.
I mean if I say something to them, I get a 40 thousand
dollar fine. But if they blow a call that ruins an entire
team's season, they get to the probably
back in the locker room after the game. My God got that.
Yeah, got him. 15 yards. A little looser. I guarantee it.
That's what they're talking like in the back.
Whatever, Power Trip.
I'm sick of those
people and I'm going to
do my third F bomb so far. Sorry, but man.
Hey Joey, Bosa said after the game, I I'm not going to say
anything because I don't want to get find any more than
I already will. Now that that came from what they call
the locker, clean-out day. It's the final day after the season ends
reporters,
are there. They can talk to whoever that's when he really
unload. And I have a feeling, he's going to be hearing from
the leg about that. I mean, yeah, that sure he's making
twice. I don't hear so good. He'll be all right. Yeah,
I know he
He can afford it, he can afford it and at least, it wasn't In
the Heat of the Moment least. They had a chance to think
about it and stew about it. The whole flight home slap on, it
came in and then let it be known. And I don't, I don't,
I don't think the officials are quite as
Petty as he's characterizing them to be. But you know,
the bottom line Chris, we talked about this false starts are
rampant,
holding is rampant. It's all part of the effort
to protect quarterbacks from the defensive lineman who are
so much better than the offense of lineman. So you give
the left a con, right? Tackle a split second to get in his set
before Joey Bosa. Is bearing down on the quarterback. You,
let him grab a little bit to keep the quarterback in one
piece.
We've seen that all year. It's been one of the narratives one
of the realities so he can't blow a gasket when it happens
because it happens to everyone. No, I know, but it's something.
I think it's throughout the league right now and permeating
throughout the league,
the frustration of the inconsistencies and the lack of
the accountability that is, I think you've heard it more from
coaches and people, you know, in the league more than ever
before. I definitely have there is a
no and I think you even I wrote something right last week. The
about there's something about there's two
full time. Officials might be gaining some steam. Yeah,
something needs to be done, you know? And it pisses pliers off.
Like Joey Bosa. Wait, you know, everything's about
the quarterback. They make the most money but we're
not allowed to touch them
and we protect them. But nobody gives a crap about anybody else
on the football field and you can rip my shoulder off and
break my knee. And also what you're not a quarterback.
That's where a lot of I think players are pissed off and
annoyed by
that too. Let alone, you know,
what's the point of having 27 million dollar demons ends? If
you're going to let people hold the whole game man, we just
shouldn't buy defense anymore you know. And Hey listen, this
is it's a deep subject. This is where college football's
failing the NFL a little bit because
you know the SEC in the Big Ten of the only teams that run
the football and actually teach their offense, alignment had
a block. So there's not enough to go around and like we've had
the discussion.
There's there's eight good defense alignment on every
football team right now. Now, and it's gotten to the point
between. Wait, we like offense and we want the game to be good
and we want to go over and,
you know, beyond
protecting the quarterback that
Mike we see holding so much and it goes out. We basically been
told by our bosses and stuff like hey we've done it enough.
Let's not go through a run through another five minutes.
Segment of a game, showing a left tackle holding
45 times in one game
and that's where it's got a change. And
Not fair to teams that are built through the demons like
that they're getting a leg chopped out for them right now
because of the current state of the game. And that's where
I think it has to have a serious discussion in the offseason.
Right? But the point that I'm making here is the other
defensive players who were dealing with that reality
aren't slamming their helmet down on the know you're right.
He's not right there. Team. You're right. Putting putting
the Jaguars in position where they can go for to
write and beat you in regulations for that OG. All
right. There's a straight line right back to Joey. BOCES
Antics. Yes, you've got to control yourself. You may not
be happy, but you're a grown, man.
You've got to control yourself.
Even when the right tackle leaves early and grabs you on
your way to the quarterback on a play that resulted in
the touchdown, you still
have to walk off the sidelines, slam your helmet down. Once
your across the stripe, you do it there Here. Comes Brandon
Taylor, whoops. Uh-oh.
Oh wait. Wait, here's your helmet. Maybe they won't notice
it. You throw it down. I think that's why I did hear hear.
They realize you took your helmet off, put it back on so
we don't get flagged and you know, comes down to coaching
and comes down to self-discipline.
And that that's
there are a lot of reasons why the Chargers lost that game,
but that moment there did not help and you've just got to
control yourself.
