You based your whole diatribe on one game. Football is a team game. If others do not do their job adequately it reflects upon you.

Once again, how does your evaluation of the player from your easy chair trump that of those that see him and study him daily?

Hey man, there is nothing easy about this chair. I put in my work. I did my time. Paid my dues, and I say he should go.

Sorry maybe you didn't get the sarcasm in my response the first time, so I tried to make it a little clearer. Honestly, I only brought up one game because I just finished taking a look at it again, but I could bring up the Tampa game or the Panthers game or the '9ers game and go on and on. I do understand it's a team sport, but when you are suppose to fill the gap as an ILB and you can't, it's starts to become your fault. It's just my two cents, that is why I come here, to put it out there and experience the feedback.

You stated he was "the worst ILB". The guy has always been as solid as those around him. He's not a stud. I see him much like I see Scott Shanle. Neither stood/stand out, but both have the complete trust of their coaches and teammates. And even more importantly, he provides exactly the kind of veteran presence that Payton is clearly attempting reintroduce into the locker room.

After watching him play the last couple of seasons, I stand by the statement he is the WORST ILB. If he is such a good veteran leader and motivator, make him a coach.
