No more flips into ez

[DukieBoy]

Well then how about flipping when somebody else on the team scores? Or is it all about him?

IMO, act like you've been there before, and leave the flipping to the cheerleaders (of which we have none, for a good reason).

I think he should do it after every first down.

we already have a guy who showboats every first down he makes...

I think that is pessimistic. Our most recent game was a success so that is the most recent data we have to go on and therefore carries the most weight. If the players responded and won a game, then by all means makes more rules so we win more games.

Oh please. You can't just ignore 4 straight losses b/c they beat a less than average team with a rookie QB who's been a turnover machine. And you certainly can't ignore that embarrassing loss to the crappy Vikings. You also can't ignore the inability to score TDs or apply pressure on the opposing QB. Let's try to win a second game before we decide the issues are in the rear view mirror.

I stand by what I said - activity does not equal production. Do some real coaching. Coach up some players to make them play better. Be a leader of men. But don't ban ping-pong and act as if you are somehow leading on a level of Winston Churchill or FDR.

They just lost a tackle, one they signed out of pure desperation with their current o-line situation, and to backfill they signed another TE that adds zero to this roster. Not leadership in the least. It's the exact opposite - pathetic.

+1...I couldn't agree more...

Too much of the "me" generation i guess...

the thing that makes this so bad for me is the dramatic pause before he lets go of the ball....its a first down for cryin out lucy. hate to tell you, but theres a couple hundred a weekend. I like the emotion but maybe it can be better served in other ways imo

I'm surprised that no opposing defender has said something like, "You're 0-4 idiot, why are you celebrating?". The constant "look at me" type celebrations drive me crazy - even when we're actually good. If you wanna high-five/hip-bump a teammate or something, that's fine, but this stuff needs to go.

This is a really strange team so far this year. I don't think anyone could figure out how to cope with 0-2, 0-3, 0-4.

Another thing that seems like it should of been a fundamental team rule placed back in training camp. This team is straight up reactionary instead of being sound from top to bottom.

I so agree...why are basics not being covered by these coaches!!! Makes you wonder about the other basics that might not be covered...hmm

There are some things that one would think would be; a) commonsense and/or b) unforeseeable as necessary to address when dealing with professional athletes. I guess you address those issues when it is shown that your players a) lack commonsense and/or b) show that they do not know how to act as professionals. For example, I'm sure that in Von Miller's situation, he was told many times prior to his taking drugs ... well, you get the point I'm sure.

Le'Veon Bell flipped unnecessarily into the endzone on one of his first NFL carries....after missing a boatload of time for being injured....would of been a good opportunity there to end it, don't you think?

He got grace because it was his first NFL TD. He was told not to do it anymore after that. Did anyone think that someone else on the team would do it?

I did and I still do...

if Sanders, Brown or any other WR not named Heath makes a big play to score a TD I would expect them to do a flip or some other crazy celebration because they live in the moment and play a GAME for our entertainment.

The 60's aren't coming back.. sorry folks. Celebrations made the NFL popular. The championship game didn't mean squat until they called it the SUPER BOWL and added a bunch of flair. The gloves, the visors, the multiple unis.. you can't gloss up the players and the league and expect players in 2013 to run back to the huddle LIKE HEATH.

If it is that upsetting..turn it off and watch the oldies because these kids are having fun playing a game. Sorry folks.. those days are done.

Doing crap like that, the 'Look at Me' antics, are like a black culture thing or something.

Its like the punter catching the snap, punting the ball, and moonwalking to the sideline for doing his job.

Now that would be awesome.

Yeah, because Philip Rivers and his black self need to stop his "look at me" antics ... Clay Mathews Jr. too. And while we're at it, let's tell Tom Brady he's too white bread for his antics and so on, and so on and so on.

I see you Jordy Nelson ... Celebrating like a black boy .. Stop that this instant!

"Black Culture" ... don't know whether to shake my head or just laugh.

Aaron Rodgers doing his championship belt move is black culture? I think you are onto something though.. I bet your opinion is shared by more than a few. I think people like you don't recognize or get offended when white players celebrate a play because you are too busy trying to find a black player to shake your head at and tell your kids about how they are ruining the game.

Anytime a punter drops a football inside the 5 he does a look at me fist pump... anytime a FG makes a 50 yarder the holder and kicker get pumped up.

Next time don't open your yap and remove all doubt.
