ESPN: Archuleta: 'I don't like getting lied to'

This should generate some juicy conversation:

ESPN.com - NFL - Beleaguered safety Archuleta says Skins lied to him

there both are causing distractions but ones produced and the other has well regressed

the 10 million dollar signing bonus of TO came with 70+ catches, 12 TDs, and 1000+ yards with two games missed worked out ok, could of been better.

the 10 million dollar signing bonus of archuleta got you blow coverage, missed tackles, 1 pass defended, and 1 sack and a hitter for special teams, which worked out terrible.

So, that would probably qualify as "bitching".

Is there any question as to whether or not he'll be back next year?

Re: ESPN: Archuleta: 'I don't like getting lied to'

I'd call that bitching. I'd love to know why when players fall into the dog house with the current coaching staff they all basically say the same things. Is it sour grapes or is it some fundamental flaw with the staff? Gibbs didn't seem to have issues like this the first time around and by all outward appearences all other players seem fine. What is it that the coaches do when they finally give up on you?

Re: ESPN: Archuleta: 'I don't like getting lied to'

As much as I hate to say it, I think Archuleta has a point. If he can handle all the criticism and being told what is wrong with him then the coaches should just talk to him straight and tell him all his flaws and what he needs to work on. It's clear he doesn't fit into our system, but the least they could do is tell him what he needs to work on to be a good safety in this league. That said, I would like to see us trade him, rather than cut him. At least if we traded him, we could get some value for him. Why not trade him to the Bears?

AHHH HAHAHAHA!!! What a maroon. I wish I hadn't a taken up for him earlier in the season. I stand corrected, he sucks....a lot. I mean a WHOLE lot.

AA: "I don't like getting lied to?"
GW: "You want answers?"
AA: "I want the truth!"
GW "You can't handle the truth!"
AA: "Give it to me straight, what do I need to be better?"
GW:"Skills"
