    Something that hasn't been discussed - dude's a TE, ball was floating through the air. How did he muff that catch??? It should've been child's play to come down with that ball.
    Perhaps because he can't catch is why he couldn't beat out Q or a rookie TE last year after being on the team so long? Bostick won't have to worry about his Mensa dues anytime soon.

Who makes these crazy decisions?
    The ST coach who also got canned?

    Its not always the position coach's call about who is on the unit. Thompson kept Bostick over Taylor and M3 has assign players to the unit. As a TE, he is going to be on the hands team.

    The question for Slocum, Zook and M3 is, would another approach have benefitted Bostick?
    Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.

    I recall stories of unconventional methods used with Shields. Maybe it really was just a kind of irreparable character flaw. But hey, TT MIGHT improve!

    But Rodgers leads the league in frumpy expressions and negative body language on the sideline, which makes him, like Josh Allen, a unique double threat.
