Hot Seat - Mike McKenzie

nutiner i thin you have legitimate concerns with mike. but i think that we almost have to pay the guy. i also think we will. he is the best option we have. i also think you have to be careful not to give him ridiculous money just because thats your best option

My question was: what to do with him if he starts the same stuff he put on the Packers. The \"top five\" money demands, hold outs, public team-bashing, etc. I think McKenzie\'s an excellent corner, and I certainly hope he\'s past such antics. At the same time, I don\'t want to see him overpaid only to become another Tebucky Jones.

Just in what I\'ve seen of McKenzie since the trade, he has seemed relieved to be out of Green Bay. He played hard for the Saints and looked extremely loose on the field. I think that carried over to the rest of the defense. That can be attributed to the significant turnaround of the overall play of the defense.....at least one of the reasons. As far as being another Tebucky Jones, he\'s already done more in half of a season with the Saints than Tebucky has done in his tenure here. Make Tebucky a salary-cap casualty and give McKenzie an extension.

To the who said let Mckenzie go.... You obviously have not been watching him the second have of the season.. You have to pay this guy and make him stay a Saint...... Go after Fred Smoot in FA and we have two good Corners...

Dirtysaintz,

I\'m all for posting opinions and beliefs about the team on the boards, but don\'t attack people with statements like \"Have you lost your damn mind?\" or calling them idiots. I\'m sure that the mods will say something to you, as well, but I wanted to give you fair warning that they don\'t take any crap. Let\'s just all have a civil debate without all the name-calling. Welcome to the boards, btw.

No problem, hoss. Just glad there is another passionate Saints fan out there. This place is filled with them and the more the merrier.

Indeed, now there\'s an idea... :thumbsup:

And personally, I couldn\'t find anywhere in the post where someone said to let McKenzie go. This whole post is just a \"what if\" scenario, I don\'t think anyone really wants McKenzie gone.

eer: :eck05:

Keep him, and pay him by Any and All means Necessary. We have a good thing going here at a position we have been steaming over for years. Enough said.
