I also hear he does a lot of charity work. What a bastardo. Lol.

[quote=Mattyk;822364]Ok, one out of how many kicks?

The new rule definitely de-emphasizes the role of a kick returner. And for a guy like Banks that offers little at any other position, I don't see how you can say he's not on the bubble.

Janikowski was booting them out of the endzone, lol[/quote]

It all depends on if the team wants to find a way to use him. Last year they used him for screens and towards the end of the season as a WR. I think he proved he fits in for more then one roll. Plus he's available if needed as a scat back. But I do agree with you that he needs to show the coach's his value on this team. I too could see him getting cut because someone else on the team returns punts and kicks just as well with out the speed.

I just think it would be stupid to cut him. When playing a team like Philly we could possibly use a speed package with Moss, Austin, Paul or Robertson, and Banks as WR's. As long as the can provide the protection then other teams will have a hard time covering due to all the speed on the field.

Yes thank you. I came back to correct my mistake but you already have.

[quote=Dirtbag59;822292]Freaking Nnamdi Asomugha. Just saw his post game interview with Sal Palantonio. Extremely articulate and very well spoken. What the hell is he doing in Philly? I know I hate corners but I think I could have gotten on board with breaking the bank for NA.[/quote]

I watched it last night and he started out rather getto then stopped took a deep breath and restarted what he was trying to say. I think it was one of those moments when he was answering the question then realized he was on tv and restarted in order to not sound uneducated.

Banks is officially no longer on the bubble because he picked up where he left off before he got injured last year. Shanahan is smart enough to know to keep a big play maker like banks. We know what banks can do and now we know that he still can do it, so that's why he is no longer on the bubble. No matter what some of the fans (or seemingly in his case, lack there of) -- think of him.

Matt Stafford looked sharp last night, like he has all camp. Lions are a serious threat if Stafford stays healthy.

I'm still not buying the Lions for some reason.
