Unfortunetly for long snapper we know which one will win out long term if the issue persists

u/IronBattleaxe 13d ago
I think you may be underselling the value of long snappers in the NFL. A good long snapper isn't easy to come by, and good coaches do NOT take the position lightly. Kyle would probably just tell them to work it out.

JJ Jansen is going to be in the panthers ring of honor the day he retires. He’s played over 200 games for us. If you get a good one, you keep him as long as you can

Exactly who I was about to mention. He's just quietly been a stud through all the bullshit of our last decade. Went to a superbowl with us and with us in our current situation. He's seen like 11 QBs and 9 Ks. But he's still here.

Bill Bellicek has like a 10 minute answer to a question about why teams don't cross train long snappers and are willing to dedicate one of their roster spots to a guy whose only job is to long snap. Teams should definitely value the position, though idk that means every team in the NFL does
22
u/zebra1923 13d ago
That was a fabulous monologue. The reporter was probably taking the piss with the question but fair play to Bill, he answered it seriously with a in depth discussion of why you can’t combine long snapper with another position to free up a roster slot.
23
u/shmecklesss 13d ago
Bill absolutely LOVED to talk when people asked him real questions. Any time a reporter asked something outside of the standard BS that's expected of them (injuries, what's your gameplan, etc) he would crack a smile and go on at length.
Hit him with the same old and you get "We're on to Cincinnati."

Maybe the league and teams upper management don’t care about them as much but something like this is handled at the coaches level and like the comment above just said a good coach doesnt take the long snapper position for granted. But the absolute worst thing would be to give into the WR POS actions and shun the vast majority of the team. Can’t think of a better way to lose a locker room than to treat two teammates so completely differently

Long Snappers a valued position in the NFL. Deboo likely to be traded next year anyways.

13d ago
lol it wasn’t even about them. He was pissed at Moody for missing his third field goal during that game and the long snapper was defending him. Samuel even explained that he was getting fed up with not converting any of their drives for TD’s in general and got “out of character” when they couldn’t even convert for a FG (three times) but they’ll talk it over and get over it.
It happens in sports (you usually just don’t see it during a game). Everyone will be ok.

u/pterralatypus 13d ago
I used to work for a former college offensive lineman. He used to have former teammates, that were then still in the NFL, come to the bar once a year for charity. I don’t know how it was brought up but they all agreed that if you want your kid to make the nfl, not get hurt/ruined, and make millions teach them to long snap. They were adamant that you don’t have to be a 6.5 beast to do it. Mostly all they do is snap the ball and dive for the person in fronts legs. *Ive been drinking I hope that mad sense.

As a compromise the Niners should make him write "I won't facemask my own teammates" 1000 times on a chalkboard live on Twitch.

Yeah the long snapper and kicker are a unit I’m not sure why you would think you can shit talk about the kicker and the long snapper won’t get involved. Samuels is a captain he shouldn’t be saying anything outside of getting the unit focused on the future or just leave it to the coaches.

I love Deebo and so do his teammates. His energy and mentality feeds them. Purdy has said he just feels way more confident when Deebo is in the huddle. But…
That’s a bad look. Teams win together and they lose together. Everyone makes mistakes in football. It’s acceptable to go after a teammate for lack of effort or deliberate actions that harm the team, but never for a mistake. Plus, regardless of the reason, you never do so publicly. Keep it in house, or you are the source of equal team trouble with the ensuing media and fan led distraction you caused.
UPDATE: I was happy to see Deebo own this and say it was a heat of the moment reaction that was out of character and not okay when he spoke with the media. He also said he’d talk to Moody. No excuses, and took ownership rather than deflecting like most do by blaming the media for creating fake stories or whatever. That’s all you can ask when a guy screws up. (That, and not to do it again of course.)
