Newhouse Says Goodbye

An article to remind you there is a person behind the mask.

And the whiffed block.

You may have wished ill for Marshall, but he is thankful.

Marshall Newhouse @MNewhouse74
I appreciate the support in GB the last 4 years, such great fans and organization! Excited for the future, moving forward in Cincinnati!

Now don't you feel terrible about yourself?

Didn't wish him ill, just wished him to stay on the bench. Good for him and good luck to him in the AFC North.
I didn't expect TT to sign him, they have 3 guys (4 if you count Sherrod) who would be above him on the depth chart at tackle.

I was totally done with House after his "block" on Suh in the TDay game. That was the most chickenshit block I've seen in my life.

Now he moves to Cincinnati.

I will file occasional reports on his suckitude from my vantage point down here.

Any 'hate' directed at Newhouse was aimed his play on the field and not at him as a person.

Fairly common to cross that line. Just do a search on PackerRats for "retard" and keep track of the lineup you get.

Ultimately it's the team's fault. TT selected him, and MM protected him as far as a roster spot goes. They could have gotten fed up with his lack of development/production and let him go before he became a free agent. He was what, a 5th rounder? They didn't have a ton invested in him financially. They chose to keep him and let it play out.

He is what he is; a backup talent. Good enough to be in the league, but not someone you want protecting your QB's blind side. The team should have known that, but they likely asked more of him than his talent said he was capable of. It's not like he was trying to get beat one on one. His footwork just isn't that good.

Wow, he tweeted a nice note. He'll never get those 10 seconds back! Neither will we get back all those horrible blocks due to abysmal effort, lack of talent, or both. The Newhouse signing is, in capsule form, all you need to know about why the Bengals will never win the NFL Championship, let alone a playoff game for 20 + years.

Well, he is their backup tackle. So they haven't completely lost their minds.

Is it a Doors anniversary I am unaware of today?

C-ya and your suckitude

Every day, properly experienced, is a Doors anniversary.

I do not feel bad. I never wished for him to be injured, or ill will. I just wished for a better performer on the field.

Watch him be a solid starter for cinci...just watch.

KYPack does like their O line coach.

And was ours too, until we had a rash of injuries to our 1st rounders. I'm sure they didn't want to have to play him as much as they did.

As for him becoming a solid starter in Cinci, I don't see it. Unless the opposing defenders decide to take it easy on him or he develops new faster footwork, I don't see how that is possible. Not blaming the guy, he is what he is...backup talent. Nothing wrong with that; he's in the NFL getting paid.

[RUnuts]

I wish him well. He wasn't very good but not because of lack of effort.
