NOW who's overplaying their hand?
His defenders have no more high ground than his most vicious detractors at this point.
Frank Clark isn't playing good football. He isn't 'doing his job'. And if you sat up there watching them running those plays (again, mostly trap plays up the gut that were taking advantage of a softer middle) and thought to yourself "well clearly they're running to the right, away from Frank Clark" when he spent a large portion of that game on THAT side of the defensive formation - then clearly you were also just seeing what you wanted to see.
No, the Ravens were never running away from Frank Clark; at the very least they weren't actively avoiding Frank Clark. When they run to the right do you know why? Hint: The name you're looking for isn't Frank Clark - it's Marshall Yanda. Who is ****ing awesome. Running behind Will Shields wasn't because you're scared of the RDE - it's because running inside behind Will Shields works really well, regardless of who's on the field. The Ravens most assuredly were not game-planning to avoid running at Clark - because they kept running the same way even after Spags started moving him.
No, he's not playing well. And saying "Frank Clark ****ing sucks" is no more egregious than trying to argue that he's actually playing well. He isn't.
