Just in general I hate the idea that just because you were QB3 or whatever that means you don't know football or can't have any of your own takes. Lots of UDFA QBs types who have jobs in pro or college.

On top of that what you do as a hobby outside doesn't reflect who you are at your job.

People catching feelings because he had a harmless opinion (not here necessarily, just what I've seen on Twitter and ****) is just over the top to me. 

This is like when Jennings or Finley said some **** and everyone lost their minds. It's about as bad as when your guy doesn't make the ******* pro bowl like it cost you the Powerball jackpot.

Who's saying benkert doesn’t know football?

Reading his tweet, it comes off as his release ...fenhis view... was because the HC didn't like him.  

That maybe a fair stance.  Has benkert done anything on other teams?  Maybe its because Benkert isn’t an NFL caliber QB

I like Benkert.  But if we are going to be honest, he didn't make it in SF, he didn't make it in ATL.  He didn't even make it in the XFL.  I doubt that was masterminded by Matt LaFleur.

MLF’s NFL career was even shorter than Benkerts. Case in point. Maybe what separates the two turns out to be the drive necessary to win? MLF is a D because he wants to win. Benkert nearly quits because he can’t match the competitive fire.

It will always naturally come off as sour grapes when former employees talk negatively about their boss. Clearly MLF wasn’t getting the best out of his QB3 at least partially because of his leadership. 

I’m both immature enough to plan on playing Rocket League for 90 minutes tonight and mature enough to know if I went on a podcast I should probably not talk about my former coworkers because I wouldn’t want them talking about me.

Do you think players just sit and stare at their playbooks all day/night/offseason?

Absolutely not, they are obviously staring at their screens watching porn instead!!!! Hence why they are so limp when they have to come out and actually play a game

Tbh, I was not aware that's what he was doing these days or anything about it. Interesting...

I mean I just catch him playing madden - well - and describing how he reads/attacks defenses as he does it - seems fine to me. I've also seen a couple of live stream clips where he is clearly rooting for the Packers, again seems fine.

I keep hearing about how RB's are dime a dozen and investing in the position is stupid.  I'm sure we'll be fine.

good one, MLF offense is run the ball to set up the pass, we can't run the ball minus Jones, trading for a RB makes sense to me.
