Welcome WR DJ Chark

[AFboltfan]

Having watched a lot of youth and highschool ball I can tell you Football coaches are not only extremely egotistical but also vindictive and petty. They have their favorites and even if you are better if they don’t like you they will bury you.

You would hope pro coaches are different but not in my experience. The greats figure out how to utilize you and don’t hold grudges because they want to win more than just being right. Roman does not fit into the “great” category, heck he may still be in the actively “bad” category.

Funny how you never mention Harbaugh as a co-conspirator. Your Roman bias is blinding you... Do you honestly think Harbaugh has no responsibility in the Chark situation? Or even Chark himself?

The conspiracy theories around here are getting spicy!

So now Roman and/or Harbaugh are out to "bury" Chark. A guy who has bounced around the league and had documented drop issues.

You don't think the more plausible explanation is that he simply doesn't look that great in practices during the week, meetings, etc? Or maybe his injury was more significant and he's just not fully recovered? We aren't privy to about 90% of the information the coaching staff has.

Maybe he's made of glass, right?

I have no idea. I'm not in the trainer's room with him.

For some reason I thought his 1k season happen with Lions not with a forgetful Jags team. My guess he just sucks now and he never was anything worthwile before. I think its more a indictment on Hortiz. He had a hit with Ladd but if memory serves me right the Ravens scout teams were notoriously bad at selecting WRs. Blame should go Hortz>Roman/Harbaugh.

Shouldnt this be a day to celebrate?

We now have a DJ Chark reception for the 2024 season!!

Chark got 15 snaps last night (4 run blocking + 11 routes run). Herb only targeted him once. At least this is a step in the right direction.

Really? With the way people on this forum talk about Chark, I would think he would be targeted EVERY SINGLE TIME he runs a route.

Ugh, if you haven’t seen me talk about Harbaugh then you just have selective reading. I also think that Harbaugh is allowing Roman to make decisions and run the offense. It’s called delegation and it’s a big boy concept. It’s where you trust someone to do something that you could do yourself. Harbaugh is ultimately responsible for this teams results so OBVIOUSLY he’s responsible for the offense.

This, guys like josh mcdaniels and brandon staley come to mind, incapable of taking responsibility for their mistakes and blaming the players. Roman cares more about his petty squabbles with individual players than he cares about Jim, Justin, or the team or winning for that matter. There are so many strange happenings on the offensive side of the ball in regards to personnel decisions that are not taking place on the defensive side of the ball, coincidence? I think not…are we to believe that ALL the defensive players just fell in line for Minter while Roman got all the bad apples? Gimme a fucking break! You guys, some thing smells like shit in the offensive room and it’s NOT Herbert and it sure as hell isn’t Harbaugh…it’s Mr napoleonic complex Greg fucking Roman…
