Brandon Bostick: 'It wasn't my job at all, I was supposed to block'· Page 3

I use to get mad when Darlene Sharpier would return a pick out of the end zone to the ten yard line or worse, fumble it. I don't think Burnett was afraid, Peppers motioned him to down it and he did. Would you argue with Big Julius?

Situational football. Burnett needs to know how much time is on the clock. He had room to run.

Bostick made a bone head move. He should know his role and stick to it. He blew a golden opportunity - and you have to make the most of these, as they are the moments that win and lose games. You can say that it wasn't a single play that cost them - but you cannot deny that shitting the bed in moments like that will cost you. Bostick will be lucky to have a job in football after that play.

Jordy was directly behind Bostick, had he blocked his man, the man who recovered the kick, Nelson was in perfect position to gather it in. 100% on Bostick for not doing his job. Cut him.

I agree that I'd prefer not to see him in a Packer uniform again, but I just don't think it matters whether he blocked or made a play on an easy catch.

He would only be getting blame if he missed his block and the guy he was supposed to block ended up getting the ball before Jordy, who was right there to make the catch.

As others have said I have no problem with him trying to field the ball. In most situations yes, you block your guy but when the ball bounces right in front of your face and you are a TE who is supposed to have some sort of ability to catch the ball you try to catch the ball. I'm guessing he makes that play 9 times out of 10. Just sucks when the 1 time is the first time.

I mean, what other possible explanation could there be to take a dive in that situation? If you're not TRYING to let the other team back in it?

He dropped the ball in more ways than one.

If, in carrying out his assignment, he would have cleared the way for Jordy then yeah, another mistake on his part.
