Pierre Thomas almost traded to Pats?

I don't buy it. I was surprised PT even got back in the game after that weird turn.

I don't think PT is a bad RB but he isn't anything close to warrant Steven Jackson money though.

A lot of players are actually benefiting from being in this system of Sean's. Seriously these guys have to realize that.

With PT in the game we have the best screen game in the business. He is elusive and powerful with good speed. I like him a lot. He is the perfect runner for the system. Ivory doesn't understand how to read a block he just runs into the blockers back. He has no vision.

you can't make the club if your in the tube. You also can't paid either.

How can you be an effective RB running on one foot?

Speedy Ron · 11-03-2010, 10:47 PM

The trade actually makes alot of sense. he wont be here next year so we obviously wont get anything for him when he walks. the way it looks now he wont even get on the field this year. i would take mccourty in a second. yes we have good corners but porter cant stay healthy and by the looks of it neither can robinson. mccourty is better than robinson anyway. i would also take one of their safeties.
to me this trade would have been great. we wont get anything for the guy now.

Manning becomes a FA at the end of the season???

it has to be ligament damage. a surgery puts him on ir if not 50-50 he'll play again theis year. it has to be that simple. faking an injury kills career.if he's around or i should say if we're around for the playoffs pt could be as fresh as a spring chicken going in. reggies going to be back, it will take some heat off drew and wrs

Without PT, I don't think we would be world champions right now. The guy plays with extreme heart, and determination. If he is looking to be overpaid, then I understand his leaving, (although, I don't see any teams that will pay him that type of money anywhere else either). Would love to keep this guy if possible.

I've always thought PT was a good strong back....but he is not very quick! Ivory is quick and strong. With a little coaching, Ivory is all that PT is and more, for less money and no whining about a contract. I like PT but if he gone then I trust enough in he organization that our running game will not take a hit.
