Saw his interview comments yesterday, getting asked about not being in the game plan more. He handled the questions like an absolute pro. Laughed when he was asked if he was disappointed, saying “disappointed about winning? Sure. Ok” (paraphrasing). Again, this was one of my points. With the coaches saying his number just didn’t come up on the plays we called, he’s STILL got reporters asking him a number of questions about not getting the ball more. Coaches and GMs don’t share their thoughts with reporters. They play verbal defence 90% of the time. Anyway, the point of this comment: Toney earned some respect. It’s a small thing, but his position has a bit of a diva reputation. He’s not acting like one and I love that. I agree but when that is all we've got to point to for success with a 2nd year top draft pick it leaves me smh. "despite popular opinion, he may not be a diva after all" is faint praise, isn't it? Not quoting you here CDN, just trying to isolate a thought on the subject. We’re completely aligned (I think). I rag on the kid. He’s back on the injury report. From practicing and getting two touches last week. So I go out of my way to try and combat my own bias when it comes to Toney. With some of his idiotic social media posts last year I assumed he wouldn’t be able to resist whining to the press. I want him to be successful, but he’s on thinner ice than Jones IMHO. We have a saying at work. Searching for the pony in the pile of horse shit. That’s what I’m reduced to on this topic.

e I love it the way he answered that matter about disappointment. So as long as he's on that path then now he just needs to be available. Put that all together and we are on our way with him. He has to definitely continue to be available though.
Let's get ti let's get it

He is a weirdo for sure but my take is he seems to be someone who just is thankful to be playing football and the process even if he couldn't contribute as much as he wanted m Doesn't seem to (at least now)care about stats...just being part of a winning team

He fooled me after that long run play Sunday where he was fighting scrambling to get out of that pile and my thoughts were " watch this joka do something crazy like taunt or something :" but he didn't lol. nice nice.... Go KT!!

He has to definitely continue to be available though. Let's get ti let's get it Whats that path? Free agency, being traded?... This is the type of thinking that kept the team in the 4 - 6 win range for the last 6 years. (Not by you, the FO). If the kid (any kid) can't or won't produce then he is gone.. Yes I know the 1978 vintage era fan thinking, but ya know the BeeGees ain't coming back and Donna Summer has retired...

Definitely a difference. So path to being great in all aspects of a team game

Sounds like is is doing everything he can to be a factor This is what everyone needs to see. He’s putting in work, and doing what’s asked of him. Injuries are part of the package, he wasn’t going to miraculously turn into Lou Gehrig once he became a pro. It must be killing him that his biggest deterrence is out of his control.

Sounds like is is doing everything he can to be a factor I'm starting to think he is behind Nick Falato brought up a good point on every play he was in for he ran some elementary type routes he was new to the position to start now he lost time. Think this hammy thing might be away to allow them to introduce him slowly with out starting a media storm about how he isn't doing this or that and thats why he is behind. Thats my conspiracy theory.
