I Agree...We Should Be A Run/Pass Offense This Year Until SP Comes Back...

Jamessr · 09-16-2012, 11:10 PM

Think we can trade mark Ingram for a handfull of decent defensive linemen?

The way that defense looks it may take more than a year

What I want to know is - if it's not working with an old, slow Will Smith and a bust with Sedrick Ellis, then why aren't we giving some of the younger, faster players a start?

Where is Martez Wilson? Where is Akiem Hicks? If we're gonna suck it, let's starting building with younger, less expensive options so we can accelerate the building of this new defense?!?

And I'd like to see rotational play at the safety position as we can't keep oxygen on the field for Roman Harper or Reading Defenses for Dummies for Mr. BowTie-wearing G.Q. Wantanabe...

It's like I said earlier. They are not going to sit the guy's they have all the money invested in no matter HOW bad they play. We are stuck with these mediocre under achieving lolipops at least till the end of the year.

News flash for the folks that think we can just go out and get top rated defensive players right now...ummm helloo..if whats available was so good, they would not be available!

True But Some Players Want To Leave Anyway And Some Teams Can Benefit To Trade Them For Something Before They Let Them Leave As A Free Agent For Nothing....If We Were Smart We Should Have Traded Porter Instead Of Letting Him Leave For Free

Does anyone know how,much it would cost to cut Will Smith and Sedric Ellis next year

I'd like to say it all begins with QB pressure up front, but we can't stop the run, either! I don't think any of us expected the new Dome Patrol this season, but right now I'd settle for a little encouraging progress. I saw nothing today to make me the least optimistic.

I sure did not think we would regress. Hell we upgraded our weakest position. I would give my left testicle for these guys to turn it around.

This is Sed's last year in his contract. So this is a contract year for him and he has shown squat. Well actually...I guess he has shown something..he SUCKS!!
