Sounds like Mazzucah will not be with the team. Rumorville suggesting he was boarding a flight to San Fran while the team was flying out to Chicago. 


Who cares about Mazzcua.  Why is the team flying to Chicago? Do they think we are playing Northwestern?

I"m assuming they flew to Chicago then to Indianapolis.  But...I'm assuming they take up the entire plane.  I'm surprised they couldn't charter a flight directly to Indy.  

 

I also can't imagine them taking a bus then from Chicago.

If true, this is on Rhule.

 

You don't punish a player AND let him play on FG team...He either is playing or he is not.  Can't treat him like a yo-yo...

 

Rhule basically put him in the "friend-zone" and the guy had enough of it.  Stupid move by Rhule, stupid move by the player too, but Rhule needs to understand how punishment works.

It is a short bus ride, only like 60 minutes longer than Indy to WL.  Maybe it was just easier...

Completely disagree.  He sat out one game.  I'm assuming he did enough to be let back on the team and he allowed him to play on special teams.  Then....we don't know what happened.  Maybe he did something stupid again since last game and Rhule finally had enough of it.

I mean, he played in the last game and was on the trip to PU, clearly to dress out and be on the sidelines.  So, it doesn't SEEM like anything happened this week.  If we take that at face value, what Rhule is doing makes no sense.

 

If the guy DID mess up again, what Rhule is doing does make sense.  But even still, it is clear that if he did do something this week, Rhule still did not "have enough of it" if he was bringing him to the game.

Maybe it happened last night?

My point is, we don't have a clue what all is going on with him and to just assume Rhule screwed up is jumping to conclusions we don't have enough information to make.

I mean, all we do is jump to conclusions, that is what this place is for!  Ha

 

And I agree, if something NEW happend, I get it.

 

But if it was still Yo-Yo time, well that is not a good way to do things.  Punishments, consequences, should have a start time and and end time OR at the very least, should be consistent.  Letting him play "a little bit" but still keep him out is, in my totally worthless opinion, not smart.

Fwiw it’s been reported that Rhule leaves a lot of those decisions to the position coach. So Foley said he could play for him but Raiola didn’t. I hear what you are saying though.
