Jamal retiring?

Re: Jamal retiring?
Whether he thinks he's retiring or not, Pete Carroll is likely the only person who still believed Jamal could come back again.

Think we have a real shot at some of their guys even if it's not Madubuike or Queen.

Re: Jamal retiring?
Couldn't agree more. Percy? Jesus H. Christ, JS gave PC and Bevell a Porshe and they tried to convert it into a Jeep! I remember the game after his trade the Jets hit him on a bomb like sixty yards down field. I wonder if Bevell's mind exploded knowing he could run a route past the line of scrimmage!? Jimmy? I loved the move when we made it. The weapon we were lacking, a Red Zone threat. I hated it as soon as Jimmy got to camp and PC spent weeks trying to teach him how to play with his hands in the dirt! You basically traded for a giant slot receiver and decided he needed to do something else!auroraave wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 2:59 amI don't understand the Jamal hate, but I guess that is some people's thing.

Everyone ignores this when I say it, but when the Jets DC Greg Williams said Adams would hate it here because we wouldn't know how to use him? We scoffed....but now everyone forgets that and just assumes that it's all Jamal's fault. The dude was a fucking All Pro the two years before he got here and the first year he was here. Then we decided he was a cover Safety. Dumb.
IMO we are all about to see what these cats we have on defense can actually do when they are playing football and not being asked to play "prevent the big play" ball.

Says the "take it up with Pete" guy. Seriously dude? Pete was JS's boss! You think the VP of Football ops had no say in personnel?

Re: Jamal retiring?
I don't think they approached the relationship as Pete being the boss, they worked together. Sure Pete have final say if they couldn't agree, Pete claimed he couldn't remember that ever happening. I was talking about putting a trade together. I believe that was JS's field. I believe they worked together on who to go after but in terms of trade value, that be JS. JS did assume responsibility for something
Re: Jamal retiring?
Pete was probably involved in the big trades but a minor one like Rusty Williamson or whatever our franchise QB's name was. lolMichael K. wrote: ↑Thu Feb 01, 2024 4:13 pmSays the "take it up with Pete" guy.

Yet you took issue with someone mentioning that Pete had a part in it?
