I will bash Hurney until he is back to radio. 

And all of those perhaps are poor excuses. Sorry man. I like you and your posts. But Hurney has no fuging clue what he's doing. He didn't, and he won't. It's simple. 

Gettleman literally saved this team from salery cap hell  Over the course of 4 years AND at the same time managed to get us to be playoffs 3/4 years after a dispicable tenure with a shitty radio host for god damn near 10 years, you really think old school fans want to put up with this poo again? We don't. 

Hell he couldn't even coherse TJ Ward to come here, because we are still reeling from his cap stupidity. Than he releases a fuging punter for 2 mil extra in dead money for two years. 

I'm sorry man but he isn't fit to run a quick stop. Much less GM a 350 million organization. It's pathetic.

I'm not a Hurney fan. I AM, however, a fan of our fans getting the facts straight. Blasting Hurney for "not knowing what he's doing" in this situation isn't right, man. He's not out there making these decisions alone. He's not sitting there drunk in his office. It's easy to be emotional - I get that way too (usually I'm drunk when that happens though).

If a guy like Armah wasn't in the cards for the evolution of the offense, then we're not trying to evolve very much. Guys like him, when used correctly, are awesome weapons. Armah demonstrated an ability to make strong blocks, hustle on special teams, and make a play with the ball in his hands.

Dickson and Olsen aren't blockers and I don't care how much the team, the players themselves, and the fans want to say "Dicksons our blocker TE and Greg practices on the sleds every year to be well rounded and never leaves the field." At the end of the day, they are both mediocre blockers and we shouldn't rely on them to be our blockers. Prior to this season with McCaffrey, Stew has had to battle behind the line of scrimmage and at the first level because our TEs are mediocre blockers. Stew is not fast enough to get away at the beginning. This fact is even more noticeable when we see McCaffrey play. McCaffrey is partially there to conceal our sub-par TE blockers. Fournette would look like poo like Stew does most of the time in this offense and it's because we wanna pretend that Greg and Dickson are actual blockers.

Investing in this offensive evolution means we should invest in a fuging FB who can make plays too. Armah was potentially another swiss army knife that we're gonna leave on the PS now. How many PS guys grow into players on this team? It's the back of the refrigerator where good food gets left to spoil. If you believe he is talented but raw, you find ways to work him into the game and you give him time with the 1s and 2s. No one is gonna hone their craft against PS guys.

We deserve to lose him to a team that's willing to give him a roster spot and a chance to practice against actual talent.

How?  Gano is  one of the tops in the league in Touch backs.  Maybe he will just kick off like Rhys Lloyd did and Butker will do FG duty.

Butker was blasting kickoffs the other night. Hurney just said if they're both on the Roster Gano will start Sunday.

So elder is a bust (DG pick)

hate to lose amah but hopefully he clears and stays on practice squad 

Lol. Why the fug would elder be a bust? Damn dude. He's an injured fifth round pick. At least let him play a snap before making a dumbass statement like that

there have been changes to kickoff rules since then, dont need a boomer to kick it through the endzone anymore

When you have our special teams you do.  I'm just saying all this shock of having two Kickers shouldn't surprise anyone because its been done before.
