What happened to Carl Nicks?
this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; You know, the Brees protecting, ground game-hole creating monster!? He couldn't/didn't help the Bucs get 1.5 yds for a TD! Either the Saints defense isn't that bad, or Nicks isn't that good! I think it is the later!...

Re: What happened to Carl Nicks?
That's why Grubbs is rated the #1, or he did a couple of weeks ago...
Brees makes O-Linemen better... |

No, Saints defense is bad. Nicks overvalued himself. We were smart enough to know the man wasn't worth that much.

He's on drugs. He says we treated him poorly as fans.
So he came here, made money he signed for, won a Superbowl... give me a break. What happened to him? He became a loser. |

Brees' release time has unquestionably made his lineman look much better than they are.
We have good guards, but center and tackle have to get better. Getting Grubbs instead of giving in to Nicks' ridiculous demands was a very good move, indeed. |

This scenario kind of reminds me of The Replacements when the brothers were one of the best guard tandems in the league, but as soon as one was traded, they fell apart. Only in this case, it happened to Nicks.
