This may be the worst defensive play call I have ever seen.

Can anyone tell me what the fug I am watching. We have DE's and DT's 5 + yards down field in coverage and Short and Luke as the only pass rushers on a fuging 3rd & 3. This play alone should be enough to get Washington fired. I mean watch Short's half-assed effort while Luke is trying to bull rush 3 fuging linemen. Watching this makes my fuging eyes bleed.

Washington’s secret play.  He was hoping to get Steelers by surprise by having giant orgy 5 to 15 yards from the line of scrimmage.  Unfortunately, Big Ben threw 30 yard pass... past the orgy.

That is literally like playing the AI on the dumbest level possible.  

Madden on rookie isn't even this bad. I don't think I have ever seen something like this in the NFL.

Seriously, what was Washington expecting when he called this poo?

No way am I clicking that link or ever willingly subjecting myself to that Defensive (lack of) performance again. That said, at least it kind of worked with Peppers once. Probably felt like he was a genius when that happened so he Shula'd and just kept deciding to to do it. Even a blind deaf albino squirrel finds a nut every now and then. Except this one. This one died a long long time ago.

He had that tight end standing in the backfield bracketed though.

    • Too late to edit above but the quote is from this Diane Russini article in the Athletic: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/5941684/2024/11/23/russinis-what-im-hearing-the-day-the-jets-fell-apart-and-the-broncos-rallied-belichick-best-fits/ Okay.. there you have sorry I left that out the first post.  Also waivers keep the contract intact. That is the major difference in released and waived. It's all in that link from the other post.
    • Okay so I am reading something in The Athletic and it says that Jones had to pass through waivers. So I don't know. I looked this stuff up when we were number one there all offseason and I thought it said 4 years in the league got you vested, as they call it.  Vested gets you out of waivers as I understood it. I probably got something wrong, but when I think about the slack quality of journalism these days I wonder about that. So I went and looked, again. Well, well.  For everyone: "When a player has accrued at least four seasons in the NFL, they are considered a vested veteran. When these vested veterans get cut, they are released and their contract is terminated. When a vested veteran is released, they are an unrestricted free agent that can sign with any NFL team, and the team that released them doesn’t need to provide any additional compensation." It runs it all down here, where the quotes came from: https://www.profootballnetwork.com/waived-vs-released-nfl/ As far as Jones, the team turned down his 5th year option so I knew that meant he had 4 years in, because they re-signed him anyway, after turning down the much cheaper extra year.  The Athletic is owned by the New York Times so I shouldn't be surprised. That paper was an institution once upon a time but they let their standards go.
