When you say everyone wants out, I was struck by one telling thing Montgomery said in the other article about his fumble: "I don't fully understand what my role is right now, what I'm supposed to be doing, how I'm supposed to help this team." Although it was amid an interview about his probably costing the team the game, it made me ask if the communication between coaches and players is really there. I would hope that every player has an understanding of what his role is by this point of the season.

communication is there, its the thick heads to either put it off on somebody else (responsible) rather than take it themselves.  he knew exactly what to do and he didn't and everyone saw, so he got caught with the hand in the cookie jar, and he doesn't want to own it.  i think they are getting better, these guys are not rocket surgeons, but the stuff is dumbed down enough, at some point you have to own it and 88 is not.  so to move on from it, he has to own it and apologize, maybe to the team and inside, we may never hear it.

I've always been an MM supporter, but I am really starting to see some cracks opening on this team. Communication, accountability, etc.

When I saw the story of several players saying Ty threw a tantrum after he was pulled out of the game, it made me question the leadership over there.  When players start talking as anonymous sources to throw other players under the bus (deservedly or not) to me it shows a lack of organizational leadership.  You keep that in-house.  Someone like BB would not tolerate that from his players.  It makes me feel like MM may be starting to lose the locker room.

WAS D is developing into a really good unit.  We'll see how HHCD does there.

Wait, wasn't it the WAS game where he was having a conversation with their sideline right as the ball was being snapped?

We'll see if HHCD actually tries to play in Washington or if he watches plays go by him like he did in GB. If his participation goes up in Washington, why didn't he actively participate in every defensive series in GB?  Maybe HHCD will learn how to tackle in Washington, instead of bouncing off players and thinking that is enough to bring them down. Just making an INT every so often isn't good enough. He has to learn to play the entire game. I can see GB moving Tramon to S and playing Jackson or Breeland at CB in Tramon's spot. Tramon was getting beaten as badly by the Rams as Brice was by Minnesota this season. Why they had Tramon covering the fastest WR on the Rams is beyond me. Same goes for Brice and Diggs.

I was surprised that Gute only got a 7th rounder from the Ravens for Montgomery-- and that being in 2020's draft. 

I'm surprised they got anything. After all the bad press Sunday through Tuesday this guy was close to untradeable. 

The Ravens could have just waited a few more days and claimed him after he was released. They just did this to avoid competing with other teams for a waiver claim.
