He lead the drive? He accounted for 14 yards. Hyde more than doubled that production on one run.
Fury, I got to hand it to you. I first noted your rancor towards others and your steadfast belief in Kap this past off season. No matter what happened, you stood by your man. I wondered, then, just idly, what would happen if your hero turned out to be a dud...or outright failed. My guess then was that you would first defend Kap to the max, which is fine. But I also wondered if you would lash out, denigrate his competition(gab) , and disparage posts of others who didn't agree with you. And then if things really went bad you would go ballistic and just say anything to make your hero look not so bad, or in your mind, look good.
You did not disappoint, and true to form are doing everything known to posting to support your failed hero. I understand in a way, in that if Joe had done half of what Kap has done, I would have been heartsick. But Kap, and not to his credit, fails and then uses subterfuge, antipathy and disrespect toward our country's anthem. You even attempted to talk that away. But in the end, here you are....dispirited, not wanting to accept that hero is in fact canard. A fake. A shell of his former self. A wunderkind who gave us all hope, but that was based on a great team behind him, O and D, who excelled based on his athleticism , which was incredible. But QB functions....simple QB mechanics...he never worked on those, or if he did it was way too late. Didn't hit the books, hit the weight room. Didn't progress like others in his class, went backwards, until yesterday. And that was when he hit rock bottom. And predictably, you went bonkers, finding fault with others esp gab. Not owning up to the fact that Kap played like dreck. Not accepting this once very good player now....well, now he is reduced to being the 4th best QB on the team, and has started this yr off with his 2014 adn 2015 talents. No more. Just the same. Virtually everyone here sees it, just not you.
I understand that. But had this been Joe, all of us would have been disappointed, but nobody would have said , well it's everybody' else's fault. Not Joe's. Fortunately that never happened. He was too good of a guy to do that. Your guy Kap, is thrashing around. He is no longer NFL caliber. And yet you stand by him and excoriate everyone and everything else. You think there must be another reason. There is wisdom out there that says if you have dug yourself into a hole, well then, it is best to stop digging. Fury, you are there, my man. Good advice...stop digging.
