Woolen needs to be benched...

[Rat]

... for at least the 1Q next week.

When you have guys like Leonard Williams out there testing the physical limits of the 300lb body and Julian Love busting his ass to bail out the offense, you can't let Woolen get away with the embarrassing lack of effort he was showing. Bench him for at least the first quarter of the Cards game next week. Bad play is one thing, not trying is another.

dude got that from Diggs and Adams lol i remeber last yr woolen taking a few plays off.

this is the pros. benching does nothing. Leaders like Love getting on him is the best message.

If his replacement gets beat a couple of times deep you will not like that benching

 

[mistaowen]

Yeah, mentioned that too. He literally just stood there as they almost convert a 3rd and 50 along his sideline. Guy plays with absolutely zero fire/physicality, relies entirely on speed. Then gave zero effort on fourth down conversion and just put his hands up.

Contrast that to Witherspoon who is genuinely a heat seeking missile, they’re night and day players. It’s no surprise his name rarely gets mentioned by MM even though his coverage is good. He will never escape the lack of physicality calls he gets.

Riq is making chump change. I doubt he'd like the attention being benched would bring when he's on the verge of finally being able to cash in.

 

[hawker84]

Agreed, he's a a weak link. Can't tackle, can't cover top recievers, takes plays off all the time. Send a message, bench his a**.

 

[CPHawk]

Hopefully he will start playing well again, and we can trade him for a draft pick

 

[HAWKN'83]

Dude had a good rookie season and thought that's enough. Couldn't agree more with what's being mentioned.

 

[hox]

Giving up that 3rd and forever almost cost the game. Then he gets beat on the very next play.

Coby Bryant showing more hustle than Woolen out there.

Then a bit later Love makes a huge play. I'm so glad we have him on our team. Riq made a couple plays this game, but definitely took that play off. Good for Love for getting in his ear about it.

 

[Chukarhawk]

He flashed early in the season, and I thought this BS was behind him

 

[HawkinNY]

once he changed his name he’s been weak. Hope he figures it out. Dude has talent. Just seems to take to many plays off.

So if we start calling him Tariq again he'll do better?

 

[SeaWolv]

Per PFF he’s been regressing for the last couple of seasons, it might be time to cut the cord. His run defense has improved but his coverage has gotten worse. You’d think he’d be playing hard heading into a contract year.

Right now, we should be calling him TooWeak Woolen.

 

[Maelstrom787]

It showed up on his college tape too.

He's prone to loafing.

 

[cymatica]

Looked like Spoon was yelling at him for the 3rd down play. I would like to think his teammates are going to set him straight and not let him get away with that

 

[onanygivensunday]

I heard that he also loafs when he's prone.

Yeah he needs to change his name back cause right now his play riqs
