Now it makes sense...

A playmate actually married Jeff Garcia; all playmates moved down a peg or two in my mind after that.


hahahaah amen...

because of the cap, money paid to non-producers is a valid reason for hate, since they impair the team's ability to improve in other areas.

holdman and archuleta rack up tackles, but they're late tackles. it's like arguing that david carr is the best QB in the league since he has/had the highest QB rating (even though he only plays well in garbage time).

it's not just arch though. carter's underperformed, injuries at DT and DB have really hurt, and none of our CBs look like they're any good right now. our offense hasn't been consistant enough to keep them off the field, and GW's been calling an awful lot of prevent which i'm not sure who it's really helping. there's blame for the FO for overpaying and not ensuring depth was taken care of (NO ONE should have to bring in 9+ players at the last second for needs that were known dating back to the end of last season).

but if i have to vote, i'd say archuleta isn't living up to his contract or doing what was expected of him to help us win games. maybe prioleau's injury prevented him from being used solely as a quasi-linebacker, but injuries happen and the remaining starters and depth has dealt with them very very poorly.

For all those complaining about Arhuleta I believe he leads the team in tackles. Why are people hating on him. Because of the money?

The D is horrendous at the cornerback spot. How about some complaining about Carlos Rodgers, without Springs he's useless. How about some complaing that the Defense can't get a turnover when it's handed to them in the breadbasket like Sunday afternoon when an interception was dropped.

I agree 100%. Seems as if everyone is looking for a single scapegoat, when there's blame to go all the way around on defense. The line has been horrible, the linebackers aren't performing up to par and even the linebacker coach admits this (see today's Post), and CBs are even worse than the line and LBs. Even ST, who seems to be viewed as a saint by many on this board, has made some glaring errors. It's not just AA and not just Carter - IT'S THE ENTIRE DEFENSE. It's easy to point the finger at one guy, because then you can fool yourself into thinking it's an easy fix. But, in doing so, you're just being self-delusional. The problems on "D" are much deeper than one player, unfortunately.

On the other hand, I think the problems on offense would improve greatly if one player were benched - that being Brunell.

workout warrior...more like paycheck warrior. he is awful. send him back to st louis. i dont think he could cover me.

On Cold Pizza just now Darnell Dockett said he listens to Phil Collins to get pumped up before a game, said Ray Lewis likes to as well

"If you're a true baller, nothing gets you pumped up like 'In the Air Tonight'"

Albert Haynesworth has a penchant for 'Stomp' by Aaron Carter.......

Says it gets him all fired up and ready to...uh......

In case anyone thought we had a savior on the bench, we don't. We have a project (who I hope will be a great player one day).

I am so happy we got Troy Vincent.

Maybe that can put some pressure on Adam Abercrombie.

And yes... he looks just like one of those models. That's what he should be.

And when will that "one day" ever come? Do we have to completely destroy this season before Campbell's day arrives? No, he's not a savior, but I do believe the offense won't be any worse with him behind center than it is with Brunell. In fact it will be better because, unlike Brunell, he has a strong arm and may actually be able to consistently complete passes downfield. Of course, as long as he's only allowed to hold a clipboard, we'll never know the answer to that question, will we? On the other hand, we already know the answer to the question - can Brunell lead us to the SB?

he also brings a degree of speed and athleticism not present in brunell since the mid 90's...
