Biggest issue

[Big Daddy]

Allen is a baller.  And did you guys watch him?  He plays angry and nasty and with a big edge and chip.  He's clearly trying to instantly make a name for himself and leave a mark to keep a starting spot.

Has to be a bit careful though: just waving off MOS's comments with a thumbs up?  Have all the edge you want, but don't screw with the chain of command.

Hey Tecno - what does this mean?  I think I missed something, was there something in the game, or interviews after?

It was in-game comments by Suits.  He was talking about how MOS was telling Allen something at that time.  They showed a replay of Allen and he was like giving someone (MOS?) a thumbs up and instantly turning his head and walking away.

There's lots of assumptions here, like Suits actually not being always wrong, and the thumbs up was directed at MOS (who knows).  We don't get to see MOS or the 2 in the same shot.

But if the narrative is correct, and MOS is trying to tell Allen something and he just turns and thumbs up & walks away?  That won't sit well with our HC.

Keep in mind Allen was crazy fired up and may not have been in the correct head space.

Wow, nice observation!  When was that in the game?  I want to go back and check it.

Props for the Suits backhand of assuming he isn't always wrong!

And watching the first half last night when I got home - even Suits couldn't justify the PI against us, and he then commented the one that wasn't called against OTT shortly after justified the fans being upset on the non-call for the previous PI against us.  Even he couldn't make sense of the biased reffing for those plays at least.

2Q8:35 Is when Allen gives the thumbs up.  To whom, we don't see.  But Ferguson (not Suits, sorry) says it's to MOS.  It was just after a play where Allen was in Addison's face & chirping, starts walking away, then goes back to chirp more.

The booth explanation is very probable.  MOS would warn a player who was getting chippy to make sure they don't get flagged.

I noticed a couple times where MOS was in full coach mode.

After a BS ST teams penalty late in the game, MOS was talking to the ref and Mike Miller was so fired up, MOS had to get him off the field before continuing to talk to the ref.

Then after the second PI call on Allen, he was visibly upset and MOS spent a long time talking to him on the sideline (with other players coming up and supporting him during).
