Is it just me or did Trumaine Johnson truly SUCK the other night? I know all corners are not like Revis was but I'm still waiting for this reputation of being a "lockdown" corner. Has anyone else seen it. If they have honestly I'd like someone to point it out for me? I can't remember once saying to myself in 3 games now that's why Mac have TJ that money. So far what I see is another Morris Claiborne and I'm really not seeing this as a great, difference making acquisition.

He certainly has not played up to expectations to this point. It's getting old that guys picking up a big check are underperforming so much.

But what I'd like to know is what that says about our GM and HC? Remember, this is not the first time this has happened. Revis, Wilkerson, Johnson? Have I mentioned all of them? It's bad enough this team is 1-2 and just lost to the fucking Brownies, now we're finding our difference making corner is another that's going to do nothing for us.

Seems to me we undervalue character and love of the game in favor of "athletes" who dont have the maturity or desire to give 100%. Been going on a while. Just one of these jerk-offs on your team is a cancer in the lockeroom as well.

I’ve expressed my feeling on Bowles many times on the forum, he’s overmatched, can’t make adjustments and needs to be fired. While I’m not happy with Macs peformance I currently don’t have the animosity for him I have for Bowles. He gets one more chance and $90M to redeem himself. Give me $90M to spend on free agency and I’ll make the playoffs in 2019.

I understand the frustration and respect your opinion. I’m pretty frustrated on the recent draft fails and giving lazy loafers like Mo and Mevis big pay days with no return on the investment. I’m just hoping this thing turns around.

But honestly... Instead of all shit I throw around normally, I'm being serious. Mac has NOT hit on his draft picks or his FA's. Isn't that normally the 💋of death for a GM?

It's been a sad start for Johnson. But I am scratching my head when I see him playing 8-10 yards off of a WR. Bowles loves big CBs. The reason you get big CBs is so they can press at the line and disrupt. I have seen little to no press or bump and run coverage. That is the adjustment I wanted to see them make against Baker. Jam the wideouts so he has to hold the ball. That helps the pass rushers get there.
Let's hope this was the last time we see the 10 yard cushions.
