Hope so I seriously believe if you take away half of J.T.'s turnovers the Niners maybe have two more wins. Just sucks I have to wait two weeks to see what happens.

JTO singlehandedly lost the saints game for us by throwing TWO interceptions in the endzone!

It's not like he was just a workout warrior, he was highly productive player in college.

Indeed he was. Check out his stats from his junior year at Maryland
51 catches, 871 yards, 17.1 ypc, 6 TD
17.1 ypc for a tight end is un-*******-believable.

Route running and the drops are really why this guy sucks. When you fail to get open you get the QB killed. And when you drop balls on the few occasions you get it right and are open you kill the team.
Both things can be worked on. Sadly, this clown does not seem to work on anything. My assumption, of course, since I don't see or hear much about him - but Mike Sing went off on him for a reason. His comments about VD not being a team guy point to his lack of effort, imo.

That is pretty sick, especially in an offense that wasn't really explosive, so it's easy to see why teams fell in love with the measurables...He's still got a long way to go though, he will probably end up a bust because I don't think he's going to live up to a top 10 status but if he gets his head where it needs to be and learns the little things he could become a good starter.
He didn't sound like a **** afterwards in interviews which was good to hear, he was probably pissed off too, but he didn't jaw back to Singletary on the sideline or bash him in interviews, given the opportunity alot of players may of done different so that shows me he's a good kid who just has to mature.

He did jaw back to Singletary thats most of the reason why Singletary freaked out. It sounds like Vernon is taking this to heart so that is good.

No way this is true knowing the kind of guy Mike is.

I found it shortly after that post - funny stuff. It would be pretty damn funny if he actually stood there w/his pants at his ankles the whole time, but I doubt it.

I don't know what to believe now. At the end of the ESPN story John Clayton said the story was not true. Then one of the local reporters has quotes from Singletary...

Singletary is starting to remind me of Martz in the sense that he lacks people skills. His antics are just going to alienate his players and make him a pariah. He needs to keep things in house, but when he does stuff like the news conference he is just going to drive a wedge between him and his players. Singletary has what it takes to be a successfull coach, he just needs to keep his emotions in check.
