But when people are applauding him for being involved in a twist or almost making a tackle on a screen or simply not sitting down on the field when 2 guys have the adaucity to block him when we sent 3...I mean lord, when did Frank Clark start getting graded on the "Kindergartners Fingerpainting" scale?
It's just the damndest thing. Why are people so desperately trying to pretend like his performance to this point has been okay? This wasn't a 6th round flyer. Let's say we'd have traded Fisher in the offseason and then taken that pick PLUS 1st round pick and used it to get Trent Williams. Then extended Trent Williams at a record deal.
Would anyone be so defensive of Trent Williams playing to the same level Clark has played to thus far? No, of course not - because the result would be splashed across our screen every time Williams got Mahomes splattered. And yes, Clark's absolutely played that poorly but people just keep making excuses for him or, even worse, ignoring the fact outright.
I'm mostly just dumbfounded - not by Clark - but by CP. I mean FFS, does the guy pay for the server or something and I just didn't get the memo?
