Dear Christian Michael,

[PNWJoshua]

What ever OP was thinking...who knows...but Christine...Please get on the field...You are on my fantasy team, you are the chosen one! I got crap for running backs and i was counting on you if Lynch went down...Dont let me down please. I need to see 4th quarter carries and some TD's! Maybe i will activate you if you start playing...Maybe...you can do it!

Im confused.. hes disappointed CM isnt doing better on his assignments because.... Hes not playing? I dont get the post.. at all.

I think the presumption is he's not playing because he isn't doing better on his blocking assignments (in practice and pre-season).

My two cents: he's a young back, and he has time to work on that stuff. We're not exactly hurting at the RB position right now. I think the main reason he was inactive is because: 1) Lynch and Turbin are more "complete" RBs right now; 2) Coleman is the fullback; and 3) Ware is better in special teams.

I think that's it in a nutshell. And I'm fine with this as long as there is no #4 to that list.

Was I the only one a little creeped out by this part?:

"Pass blocking and protection schemes: Christian, you have been in camp since May, there is absolutely no excuse for you not to know them. Are you not studying the playbook and putting fourth the mental preparation on your off time? Do you realize how lucky of a position you are in? Playing for one of the premier teams in the NFL, with the expectation of playoffs and superbowls."

Reads like a dad scolding his son or something

Probably that little prankster, Johnny Manziel.

I thought his name was Christine Michelle!

He and Sydney Rice talked to Shawn Alexander and Matt Hasselhoff about this problem. It never really goes away.

you forgot Pat Kearney and Grant Winstrom.

Traumahawk2011 is capable of this.

Cam Chancellor is a team leader, they should ask him!

And there is an excuse. It takes time to get better at these things than a probowl veteran running back and a polished blocker

Don't forget about Bruce Irving

I'm going to chalk it up to someone just really really really wanting to see that guy on the field.

Well said. Thanks for bringing civility back to the post. Sometimes criticism really gets out of hand here. Not saying good or bad post but seriously you can tell this dude put some thought into what he was writing. And Im pretty sure Ive seen posts here were "notes" are written to players. Good criticism is meant to improve and I think many of the responses here only push people away from writing anything. Pretty sure this is close to .net rule violations.
