Charity Stripe October 13,
2020
"Kirk Charity-Stripe Cousins". Somehow Kirk Cousins cannot see
the obvious, where historically, he's not alone. Much like Joe Willie
Namath, he had to be told not to destroy the game. The Jets defense was so
tough (Buddy Ryan) & so well played, that all that was required from Namath
was not to screw up. When he adhered to these basic elements ... the Jets
could win.
Why "Charity Stripe"? Well, much like Tiki Barber or Adrian
Peterson they had a problem ... that is until they both understood this concept
... "High & Tight" ... leaving their lazy minds in the past.
Both of these running backs had developed a history of coughing up the ball to
the detriment of the squad. Kirk Cousins first safety, he was oblivious to
the backside run support, which resulted in a 9 point swing, after an incredible
goal line stand by our defense. Last Sunday versus the Seahawks, old Kirk
put Wilson on the Charity stripe by giving up a strip sack placing the ball on
our 15, followed by an incredible pick resulting in a second touchdown in about
a minute. Now add in that failed 2 point conversion and we are talking
about 16 points, where any one of them would not allow the Sea-Holes to win the
game.
Have you ever wondered why drivers are penalized for being in an accident that
was not their fault? To be direct, determining who was at fault is
irrelevant due to one important key question. Did you need to be there at
that very moment as things always happen for a reason? Since Kirk Cousins
signed with this franchise, how many times have you seen a Kirk Cousins result
... Batted Ball. Now think back to Sir Francis or even Wilson last night
on his touchdown throw while having a defensive lineman bare down on him.
The defensive lineman did not have his hands up, although he did not leave his
feet (get airborne - good), but Wilson had moved sufficiently to have a clear
passing lane. So let me ask the question, when is it ok to just sit &
throw, or is the passing game much like defending in basketball by moving your
feet. Again, Fran Tarkenton moved to allow him to throw the ball down the
field.
In fact, under Norm Van Brocklin, Tarkenton was pressed as to why he didn't set
up in the pocket to throw the ball down the field. Sir Francis responded
by saying, "What pocket?" Who was it that said, "as a pass
blocking line ... you better just run the ball". Oh yeah ... that was
me. Today, your offensive line ... like yourself ... is immature in
regard to its cohesiveness. If you cannot rely upon your offensive line to
achieve what you need to be successful then you need to compensate. Hall
of Famers ... Tarkenton, Montana & Young ... tell us that your success lies
between your knees & your feet. "Charity-Stripe needs to be told
that his game is both immature & lazy where he's earned that "Charity
Stripe" label until he's earned the distinction of "High &
Tight". Your games is a loose as a nasty "refit-hooker"
being chased by a horny three pecker Billy goat. Tighten up your game you
dumb-ass rookie. Problem is ... he's has no idea what I'm talking about
& my fear is that they are coddling him rather than kicking his proverbial
nuts for burning out yet another car battery. Stupid ... Stupid ...
Stupid.
"Charity Stripe" describes one & only one thing ... a very lazy
mind ... which cannot be allowed on that field. So how do I feel about Kirk
Cousins ... you know "Charity Stripe"? Well he will always
be my guy through both thick & thin. He's a more than capable athlete
that can win any game, at any time, & his play can be infectious ... which
can ignite the world. He just can't see the problem. He refers to
his number of years in this league as if it actually means something, and then
we accept it, because we don't know any better. In his mind,
"Charity-Stripe" refers to his number of starts & he then thinks
out loud, "Well, I must have learned something in all those years ... as if
there's some sort of correlation with just time. What he doesn't
understand is his engrained immaturity brought on by things that have little or
no real value. It's not about making a mistake, it's about the fluidity of
motion to leverage ... the advantage.
Allow me to shine a little light on this dogs ass. Today's record is
irrelevant. You might remember Joe Montana or Steve Young. They used
a direct quote that went something like this. They could tell you exactly
how well they played by watching film from their knees to their feet. In
other words, "Charity Stripe", what you think about running looks
allot like the result of your failed 2 point conversion, or the failure of
picking up that 4th in 1 by not quarterback sweeping to the left with a lead
blocker out front. Do you have any idea how many touchdowns Sir Francis
Tarkenton scored using the quarterback sweep? Now compare your
deer-in-the-headlights pocket debacle, versus Wilson below the knee game, &
you begin to see something that is completely unequivocal. A first year
basket ball coach would say it in a heart beat, "Move Your G-Damn
feet". Put another way, a good angle can take away any straight ahead
runner whereas a runner cutting it back into the field of play is an absolute
nightmare. Just take a peak at Jefferson's first touchdown catch.
Well it's the same for any defensive rusher that is counting on your loose &
immature approach to the
game.
Now let me be direct. No one is instructing you to run vertically down the
field unless it is wide open to you. Almost every time Tarkenton moved, it
was to avoid contact, where he would find that patch of real estate to plant his
feet & throw it down field. No one is asking you to be Tarkenton, not
even Fran, instead what he's asking of you is to develop the maturity in your
game. Since I can't put my head through that wall, instead I'm going to
move around that obstacle. When they asked Patton how he intended to take
the Metz he said, "Fortresses where build by the stupidity of
man". In other words, old George understood that I'm not going to
attack your strengths but rather bypass them & exploit your
weaknesses. Every time "Charity-Stripe" got himself blown up
this year, it was due to his immaturity ... the immaturity of your game.
Tennis may have shown you movement skills ... playing alone ... but that
is as far stretch from that required for a team sport as you can get there
is.
There isn't a man on the planet that could understand Head Coach Mike Zimmer's
pain in once again losing to the ARROGANT Sea-Holes. What did the immortal
Dennis Green utter, "We had em ... and we let em off the hook!"
Yes, old Denny was a genius, so we are going to try once again help out our
coach. When your playing the "Sea Holes", you get lost in the mire
of that emblem. You think that you're just playing another bird team like
the Falcons or the Cardinals ... but you're not. Their emblem comes right
off a native American totem pole which means that it depicts a bird however what
you are playing against is tantamount to playing your game on an Indian burial
ground. Is it any wonder that our outcomes have been nothing short of
disasters. What is required is an opened shot glass of unconsumed whiskey
any time you face the "Sea-Holes". Put it behind your bench with
the strict instructions that no one is to touch it & no one is to drink
it. If there is a problem, allow them to remove it. For some reason,
with this offering of whiskey, these Native American spirits will find favor for
those that present such an offering as it is a sign of respect to their descendants.
Did Patton actually utter the words, "I'd crawl on my belly to get another
command?" Sounds allot like our field commander Mike Zimmer where he
just might purchase & leave the whole opened bottle behind to remove any
mishaps. All that is required is a fair & level playing
field.
Before going for that 4th & 1, my only thought was to go for it however it
was clear to me that the "Sea-holes" would attack "The
Biscuit" on our right side, which they did. We ran right into our
weakness. That took an incredible amount of guts but before it happened my
only thought was with a field goal conversion, Wilson would have to achieve 2
plays of perfection. A touchdown & 1 play for the 2 point
conversion. In any regard, we'd probably miss the field goal attempt,
probably by foul again, & Wilson would have converted
both.
Was I alone out there, or did you witness numerous head shots, throughout the
NFL, that went well beyond Harrison Smith hit which he ultimately initiated with
his shoulder & the back of his pads. In other words, there is
absolutely no consistency from New York, where even the helmet shot on Irv Jr
was much more severe & should have resulted in an ejection by the Harrison
standard. By my count yesterday, the "Sea-Holes" initiated 5
helmet to helmet shots where they were flagged only
once.
Now combine this with the Diggs touchdown, taking away 7 critical points for
offensive pass interference playing the Packers, where there wasn't even a flag
thrown on the field, & it's clear that New York has an unhealthy bias for
this particular franchise. For what other franchise do these standards
apply where one might say, "New York ... tell you what, how about allowing
us to stay home & save the trip, where you can tell us the outcome of the
contest from your rulings?"
Did anyone see the call & film for O'Niel's timely offensive holding
call. Am I alone in thinking ... does this only apply when it is most
crucial for this franchise & only apply to us? Don't see where
I'm going with this? How many penalties where called on the
"Sea-Holes"?
Tell me ... do you really think for one moment that that was a level playing
field or was that result forged & cast before that clock ticked for even one
second?
By the way, its not, "We are so close", but
it is rather there isn't a team on the planet that will want to see this team at
season end in the playoffs, and that includes a bunch of Arrogant
"Sea-Holes". They would like nothing more than to see us in
their rear view mirror but the leaves are falling. I love absolutely love
this team.
