But first they're going to point their fingers at the weakest targets. That's all this is. Like others have said why no finger pointing on Bodine's lookout blocks for 4 seasons ? And now Ogbuehi's ? Burfict and Pac man pulling their antics, Peko walking out on the field in his coat in a playoff game and on and on !

Weak Merv, very weak

If he was Belichick and had a long history of 'my way or the highway' schtick and was consistent in his application of that then fine.

But we've had the likes of Burfict, A.Smith , Jones, T.O, Henry, Ced, Bodine...turn up way out of shape, have off field / self induced problems, just plain suck / consistently hurt the team and i do not remember him turning as quickly or so explicitly on them.  That smacks of a lack of integrity.

Now I'm pretty p*ssed off with Ross and think a lot of this is on him.  However we simply have to know by the end of the year if he can be the guy...at the moment that means keep playing him even if he makes mistakes.

In a sh*tstorm of a season...of all the things for Lewis suddenly to grow a set of balls on,  a rookie WR who screwed up a route seems way down the list

Cedric Ogbuehi was a late first-round pick.  As soon as he was made a starter in 2016, he got pulverized on a consistent basis.  But game after game, bad play after bad play, they kept trotting him out onto the field.  They didn't end up benching him until, what?  November or December of the 2016 season?  The guy was given a A LOT of rope.  

John Ross is a top-10 pick.  A top-10 pick for a wide receiver corps where nobody seems to be able to get separation (save AJ Green).  He makes one bad play, and he gets benched the rest of the game?  Then Marvin waits three days to go down the list of all the people Ross personally let down?  Over one mistake?  

Yeah, I'll throw on the tin-foil hat.  Something's up.

All of this.....we've had guys screw up games, postseason chances, and in Og's/Blodine's cases....an entire season(s), but Merv finally decides to grow a set with a rookie WR that came in injured to start with.  Whatever dude.....
