This right here. As a former high-level player, he shouldn't have any issues criticizing someone if it's constructive. And someone's ppl just need to be told that they sucked it up and need to improve

How U Luv That???
As long as Ocho played its surprising that he's talks about the game like a casual. He rarely knows any facts, stats or history outside of popular players/teams.

The fact that he doesn't is a good balance to Sharpe. Who calls it exactly like he sees it.
He sounds like a casual fan and has the most basic takes. I’m surprised.

Nah, because that makes the convo/pod worse. He literally cannot pick between two options in fear of upsetting someone. Where Shannon breaks stuff down and give you insight to being a receiver, explaining his choice, Ocho goes "I love them both, I cant decide" and keeps it moving. Now if it's just asking about one specific receiver Ocho will say things about their route running etc.
Also if you scared to critic someone, dafuq are you doing? This is a football show where you react to the games.

If Sharpe gives us critical insight as a te/ big receiver, wouldn't Chad's commentary be redundant as a traditional wide receiver ?
At the intro of the show Chad is literally introduced as "one of the top route runners in history", so that would seem to be his forte in terms of objective analysis?

No, because Shannon is giving his perspective as a TE. Chad is a WR, so can speak more on wide receivers. The two positions play different and Chad and Shannon were two different types of receivers. Shannon was more of a physical guy while Ocho was the speedy type(going from how they explained it themselves).
He doesnt even do that when comparing ppl.
Let me pull an example from the night cap episode
Also it's not really limited to Football(which he is an expert in), but goes to other topics:This nikka Ocho cant even do a basic ass cut/start/bench thing w/o trying not to hurt feelings.
Fan sent in a question asking start/bench/cut on Tyreek, Ceedee, and Jefferson. He didnt want to critique anyone so said "Im just gonna list them by stats."
No breakdown on what he likes about each one or nothing. Hell they asked Shannon to do TE and he gave a better breakdown, even though his options was trash and obvious (Kelce, Kittle, Andrews).
Compare that to Gil's Arena where they had a similar question of start/bench/cut/trade involving Wade/Tracy/Kobe/Vince Carter (may have messed up on names). That lead to a convo about how each one was great in their own way, but also some drawbacks compared to who they chose to start/bench etc.
nikka stood on that "I love everybody" hill too. What's funny is what lead up to the back and forth. A fan asked a boxing question. I think the question was "who do you have in Tank vs Haney" Ocho was like "I love them both, that's a good matchup" or something neutral like that. and Shannon went in, about why he would be trash on First Take. I was like damn, this shyt came outta nowhere lol.
At end Ocho was like "You know what, I dont even want to be on first take anymore"
The ability to do something =/= knowledge. Plenty of folks that can sang that dont know anything about music theory or history. This podcast game is exposing the number of casuals that just happened to be great athletes.

He doesnt know the facts/stats or w/e (he admits to this. Said he doesnt even keep track of his own stats), but he is knowledgeable. Especially when talking about wr playstyle, he shows glimpses of it time to time. There have been a few occasions where they would list a top WR and Ocho would be like "you cant forget X, he was an excellent route runner that did x, y z". He just refuses to use it often if it sounds like critiquing. Also he legit only knows/follows WRs. He said only started paying attention to teams as a whole/qbs and stuff because of nightcap.
Football is a very specialized sport. Unless you a QB, MLB, S or a GOAT level intellect or just a student of the game you are just focused in on your position. Also remember Shannon been covering the sport for 2 decades. Chad has never really applier himself to being an analyst...he just a nikka that used to play.
I get sad every time I see a thread from [B][B]@G.O.A.T Squad Spokesman[/B][/B]. Im pretty sure this brother passed away. We didnt even get to celebrate the chip against the Celtics.
He was the hardcore version of my boy @Don Homer
Man with all my heart, fukk that nikka. nikka was a pure bytch. Couldn’t bold his name. But you know who I I’m talking about. That fukk nikka Black(Asian) Thoughts.

Im saying Chad is knowledgeable. But it's only about his position. Just because Chad cant recall the stats of someone doesnt mean he isnt knowledgeable. He may not be able to tell you Jamar Chase ran for 120 yards, but he can break down why a play failed from a WR/DB pov and other stuff. He has done it a few times. Like when ppl were getting on MVS. Chad was defending him a bit saying one of the issues is MVS is a body catcher, not a hand catcher. When Allen and Davis had that miscue late in the season Davis kept on his route but Allen thought he would alter the route when he beat his guy off the line and threw it to no one. Ocho broke down what would be going through that receiver's mind and why that disconnect would happen between a receiver and a QB.
cue the boondocks what did he do to make nikkas that mad gif
what happened breh
Asian man being passive aggressively racist and faking like a black man the whole time he was on the board. I called the nikka a bytch when he was here. I’m keeping the same energy while that fukk nikka is gone. Probably could put this fukk nikka name in thread title search and see all the hoe ass shyt he was on. fukk em
Here’s one of the many threads exposing this hoe.
bytch ass lil dude used to be on here using racist ass terms like nikka stoppers and shyt like that. Dude is a bytch. Anybody wanna defend this fukk nikka honor than @ me. I’m with all the bullshyt when it comes to this hoe ass nikka. Just one of the most pure bytchmade people I came across in my whole life, on or off the internet
