Fans b***h about their own players
We'll forget all this once he catches his first TD of the season, just like last year.

I disagree. The media picks up on what's taking place on the field and players talk to reporters privately. They're not just pulling stuff out of thin air.
Know what really riles me though? Really burns my lips? Really chaps my hind end? It's watching a some washout like Mike Williams -- who has been out of the NFL for two years -- run all over the field and take whatever shot he needs to take to beat the Niners. You want him to block? He'll block. Catch a pass over the middle and risk getting hammered? He'll do it -- and gladly so. Get ice water for the defense? Just tell him where to run and get the bucket and the job is done.
Dude carries his lunch bucket to work -- works his tail off to get back into the game and it shows.
Then -- on the other hand -- you have this IDIOT named Crabtree. The dude thinks he's just God's gift to the football world. Take part in exhibition games? Please -- the DIVA has no time for "practice games." Besides, the DIVA doesn't need them. The DIVA will just turn it on when the time comes.
Then the DIVA ducks like a coward at a ball thrown over the middle. The DIVA doesn't do anything to get separation from a DB in the field. The DIVA doesn't even fight for a ball.
The DIVA thinks that he doesn't have to peform. The DIVA thinks he can go to another team where all will be fine and he'll be given the proper respect that the DIVA deserves. The DIVA isn't looking at people like Mike Williams. The glare of ego is blinding out everything he should see but doesn't.
Crabtree better get his hiney in gear otherwise he's gonna fall hard on the pile labeled BUST. It's littered with former DIVA types -- players who thought they were greater than the game itself.
Just ask Mike Williams. He was on that pile. And then he got a second chance
Think he's gonna be wearing shades anytime soon? Wasting cash to have diamonds dangle from his pretty DIVA ears?
Nope, don't think so...

Material items? That's so irrelevant to football. You want Crabs to bring a lunch box? Then why say it? Crab runs crisp routes, fights for balls thrown way off target, and run blocks. The whole water thing? ever heard of a water boy?
Amazing. A bad game? yes. Bad attitude right now? yes. Sucks/b***h/trade/idiot? No.
Have you ever considered his unhappiness is due to the fact that he is going through a rough time in his career? When he was holding out 90% of the zone wanted him gone/called him a diva. When he came in those 90% of people ate their words because of the level of talent he has and what he brought to this team. Now after all the publicity of his and Vernon argument, not participating in training camp and preseason and one bad game all I hear is he sucks/diva/trade away, Its ridiculous. Since last year he came in and did so well he thought he could do it again, that's probably what Vernon called him out on and that was a good thing because Crabtree was wrong. Dose he have a bad attitude? yes, but in my opinion it's not because of the "diva" in him, it's simply because he's going through a rough patch. I am confident he will fix things and become a great WR, he needed a wake up call, something to tell him that it's not gonna be that easy and that's what he got in Seattle.

We should have just drafted Orakpo last year and we'd have a legit pass rush for our 3-4.
Anyway, I agree with Billbird. Crabs needs to fight for the ball and hold onto it when he gets his hands on it. He needs to put in work like JR did, or s**t even like a guy like Mike Williams does. So far he's looking like a punk ass diva, and he's not doing what he needs to do. I don't think he should play very much over a guy like Zeigler or Morgan who have put in more work and actually know what they're doing out there.

you guys need to cut crabtree some slack. A) he actually produced results last year, unlike Alex Smith in his entire career and B) he has the worst QB in the NFL throwing to him. He will turn it around, as best as he can with Smith throwing the ball. At least Crabtree has shown NFL RESULTS that give us hope for the future. Smith doesn't even have that!

Yah but Crabtree doesn't have the work ethic and that scares me.

Smith had a better season last year than Matt Ryan. WTF did Crabtree do, 2 touchdowns? Please. They both played like s**t but Shaj is scapegoating Smith for Crabtree. If it was his boy JTO it would be all Crabtree's fault.

He will be fine, he's never had a bad game in his career until now...all the way through high school...now that he knows he's human he'll turn it around.
FYI Sing said the pick six was NOT his fault.
He's not a diva, he just doesn't like media attention or attention in general, he's been like that since he was at Texas Tech. The times I met him he spoke barely over a whisper and only to his close friends. That's why he's so evasive in interviews, he doesn't like to talk -- he's not trying to be aloof.
