He doesn't look good. I said it in another thread, but something is wrong with him. He's either hurt or not right between the ears, but whatever it is, it isn't good.

He's holding the ball too long, taking unnecessary sacks, unable or unwilling to throw the ball downfield, and yet again his body language is atrocious.

How much of it is Austin, and how much of it is our receivers being unable to get open?

Bert just put more heat in himself putting Kelly in today. Austin continues look like crap and complain after every play, fans saw what Kelly did and now want to see if he can be better.

Not a smart move if you want to keep your job

His body language is fricking terrible. It needs to be addressed bigly

On a side note, our offensive line quite literally cannot stop getting penalties.

This is a completely undisciplined offense.

Because they are sick of Allen. He has called them out in tv during the game, cries about everything. Would you give your all for him with his actions?

We shouldn't give scholarships to people whose effort is predicated on their feelings. Pussies.

It's hard for me to shite on his attitude when I'm equally as frustrated and I'm not even in the game. Plus we'd love his fiery attitude if they were winning, can't lie to ourselves.

He did make some questionable and just straight up bad decisions today, but it's hard to tell how much his previous experience with this shite oline and mediocre WRs played into that in his head.

He has all the physical tools to be a great QB but he's no leader. I don't think he rest of the team respects him. There's plenty of blame to go around on this team but AA is the only one calling out his teammates in front of everyone.

Our O-line is bad but AA exacerbated the problem by abandoning the pocket and holding onto the ball too long. I was a big Allen supporter until last game when he threw a tantrum at the end of the game.

Today Enos was trying to talk to him on the sideline and he kept walking away and pouting like a spoiled brat. Enos had him by the arm and kept having to pull him back.

Other than Ragnow, please point out to me one player who does look good?

Actually, David Williams, the 4th back from USCe is a pleasant enough surprise. I'll leave him out.

The QB needs to be a leader. Not just for the offense, but for the whole team.
Being frustrated is one thing, showing it is another.
You need to be coaching, encouraging the other players.

Our qb is a motherfricking baller. Don't blame him for seeing what we see. He knows his coach sucks. He knows his oline sucks and he knows he's better than the shite around him. I don't blame him for acting the way he does. When he tells you to olay better toy need to fricking do it. If the coach isn't gonna be a hard arse somebody has to.

You're an idiot if you judge a player on 1 play. I guess you blame Romo when the cowboys lost to the Broncos a few years back when he threw for 500 yards 5 td and 1 pick but the pick ended the game?
