Quote from: jimc on Today at 10:13:44 AMI believe this is the crux of the issue. Being hyper critical of DJ can and should never be confused with supporting him. You may say being critical does not prevent you from rooting for him, but I disagree. I contend that most folks that are hyper critical are more likely to root against DJ in order to prove they are correct in their hyper critical analysis.I get what you are trying to say but you are completely wrong.
hyper critical equals "shitting on"
hyper critical not equal to constructive criticism
All the people that supposedly "hate" Jones on this forum are the primary ones in every game day thread rooting him on.
This is an NFL team forum, we are hyper critical of every single player and coach.
Most of this forum have been hyper critical of multiple players and coaches.
Neal
Barkley
Thibodaux
McFadden
Mckethan and Ezeudu
Xavier Mckinney
Bobby Johnson
And more
So it's ok for the majority of the fan base to be hyper critical of them constantly and root for them but it's different for Jones?
Nothing would have made me happier than Jones being the guy because then we wouldn't have to find one but that hasn't been the case.
I am actually on the opposite side of the Neal debate as I think he got really good reps in before getting injured this past season. The majority here though have been hyper critical of him for his comments and his play. Are they actively rooting against him?
