Heyer will Start against Giants

Signing him to a big contract last year kind of hurts now.

He'll be starting again before year end. More than anything else, I think this sends the message to the players that anyone can get demoted at any time.

Agreed. He sucked in pre-season. Fact. Hard to argue that he deserved the job. The benched him now rather than let him get handled and lose us a game. He can be upset, I would too, but in the grand scheme this has been on the horizon for several seasons. Heyer has a shot to be a good tackle and we should find out now if that is the case. I don't see how Heyer can be worse. I love Jansen but this was inevitable.

I think that we aren't just seeing a coach finding out if Heyer can be a good tackle. We are seeing a coach say you have to earn the right to start, and last year doesn't count. Heyer played better in preseason than Jansen. Therefore he is starting. Period.

I think Jansen's teammates also recognized the demise of his play and made it known by not naming him as one of their captains.
i disagree with this. i think you can have anyone be a captain, as long as they have the right leadership skills, and have the respect of their teammates. it shouldn't have anything to due with talent

Your Captain is a leader of the team, and happens to be a field general. How can you possibly achieve that if your not even a starter or for that matter be on the field? Which at this time JJ is not.

Darrell Green was a captain and he wasn't a starter his last three season.

Well I'm trying to think of anyone in any sport who is a Team Captain but not a leader in some capacity on the field.

Sorry I posted before reading the previous post about Darrell Green. I think that shows the respect the players had for him.

Keeping Tryon was the move of someone who smokes crack.

HEY HEY HEY leave the mayor out of this.

Although I agree with the wilso post...don't politics belong in the parking lot. This side of the fence is football ONLY!

Leave it to some dirtbag......
