?!?!?!? What is that supposed to mean? I'm lost. What does draftin Bush have to do with bad calls? Drafting Bush was not a bad call. You know.....it takes teams a few years to build the franchise under a new coach. We had a great year and we all expected huge things this year. Obviously not the case. However, this is Payton's second year....I'd say he deserves a little more time before we start crucifying the guy. Drafting Bush was a piece of our foundation. We got Meachem to cover for Horn. Not really panned out well but he'll show eventually. Give it time guys. Nobody got rid oj Jimmy johnson after his first 2 seasons and looked what eventually happened for Dallas during the 90's.

Another cowboy refrence... I think I am going to puke.

You don't build a team's foundation around a Reggie Bush... you get a Reggie bush to compliment your foundation.

Re: the dumbest play call

I must say I was impressed with the fact that we went for it of 4th down
That tells me that they are at least willing to put it all out there and do what it takes to get the job done

And yes there were some plays I thought they could have called better but blame can’t fall solely on the play calling because the players we not executing well

Re: the dumbest play call

it wasn't the play call that was as horrible as the decision to throw it deep, there was a couple of underneath routes, from where i was sitting the one over the middle was more open than Patten was.
