Wilson let the DT by and pummeled himself for the strip 6 sack? Wilson gave up the 35 yards for the TD after the pick?
Nope, in fact Wilson made the TD saving tackle. Yes, he has some blame, but so do others.
Of course that has nothing to do with my post that Cable needs to go. :roll:
Wilson has thrown two of the worst interceptions I've ever seen him throw in the last two home games. As for the strip sack, yes, that is Wilson's fault. Do the twirly bird all you want at the 50 yard line to escape pressure, but don't do that inside the 10 yard line. He's a veteran QB, and that should have sunk in by now. Not like it's the first time he's had that happen.
As for Cable, I agree. But we both know that's probably not going to happen. So, the remedy is then to fire everyone? You think a new staff would recognize the greatness of this roster and just make the necessary tweaks? Not likely. They'd come in with their own brand of hubris and tear it down to rebuild in their own image. There are very few coaches/GM's that don't do that. So, in my opinion, the people that want the coaching staff gone are asking for a complete rebuild, whether they explicitly know that or not.
Wilson was 90% of the offense, but sure blame him.
QB's throw picks....ALL OF THEM, and Wilson throws less than most. That spin move was developed for Cable who cannot do his job. It saved us last game and most....but sure lets stop that business too. :roll:
When it's his fault, I will call it out. All coaches make bad coaching decisions, all kickers miss kicks, all defensive linemen lose contain, all linebackers miss tackles, all defensive backs get beat deep. See how easy it is to exonerate everyone with that logic?
Without those two completely avoidable turnovers, we win this game by double digits. It's not like that interception went off someones hands. Lockett had 4 steps on the defender and he threw it 4 steps behind him right TO the defender. And it's not like he doesn't have hands the size of baseball mitts. If you're going to pirouette inside the 10 yard line, put the ball away. Better yet, don't even pull that move there. The pocket collapses when you're backed up in your own end zone, move forward not backwards. Absolutely no reason to get reckless there, especially that early in the game.
But, just because I lay a lot of the blame on this game on Wilson's early turnovers, I'm not calling for him to get benched the way half the board is calling for the entire coaching staff to get canned. To me, it sounds like half of you want us to go back to wandering the desert for 40 years, like once wasn't enough. This season isn't going as planned, but we still have it pretty good. And, frankly, I still think we win the division and make the playoffs. We lose to San Fran this week, I'll totally eat crow, but I think it's more likely we're in 1st place in the division come Monday with a deciding head to head against the Rams still to come. Apparently one Superbowl win spoiled this fan base and that's not an achievement of note anymore. With that sentiment, I simply disagree.
