Sutton rushes three. You're sure to get pressure when two out of your three passrushers can be double teamed. All it takes is the OT to hold off Ford (who sucks) and Carr has all day to pick apart the secondary.
Maybe Peters was onto something for getting in Sutton's face. [Reply]

It's not Sutton's fault that DJ is done and can't move like he used to (God it hurts saying that).
It's not Sutton's fault that Justin Houston can't get pressure on a backup RT.
It's not Sutton's fault that Parker, Mitchell and Sorenson all were right there by Crabtree, knew it was going to be a deep pass, and still couldn't defend it.
It's not Sutton's fault that Peters is a ****ing moron that headlocks guys downfield to give up a 40+ yard DPI for a first and goal.
It's not Sutton's fault that our DB's are in position but not capable of defending a deep pass.
This is a player problem.
Good coaches motivate players and know when to cut them from the roster too. Bill Belichick does it best, because he's tough and nothing is personal other than winning. And Sutton needs to be that for the defensive side of the roster, or retire. Lord know Andy won't ever be Bill. [Reply]

Have Sutton's schemes been perplexingly stupid at times?
Yes, but everyone needs to calm down and quit the "we're imploding" narrative...
I'm just enjoying the ride until it's Patrick Mahomes turn...
(And in no way is that a slight towards Smith, he has been balling this year) [Reply]

Carr is an inaccurate passer when he's getting rushed....
Believe they converted a 4th and 21 also. Dropped eight still got burnt. [Reply]
My brother has been pounding the "NFL=WWF" line for a long time and I've always made excuses.
Maybe it's time to consider the possibility that these guys aren't just clueless idiots?
Not sure what's worse to be honest. Manipulation or the realization that the people making your team's (and most others') decisions are buffoons. [Reply]
Just curious, I wasn't trying to defend the shit schemes Sutton is enforcing, but if you're trying to damper my belief that this team couldn't fuck anyone up in the playoffs,
