Thats a huge overexaggeration, yes he looked winded but he wasn't about to pass out on the sideline. I'm very impressed with him. He consistently takes on 2 to 3 defenders allowing for others to make plays. I hate the fact that since he doesnt make the "ooh aaah" play people will not see him for the value he truly brings.

We have 3 good DTs and one stud. Keep a rotation going so we can keep these guys fresh. Don't trade Montgomery away.

If he is upset then maybe he can work harder to improve and give the coaches no option but to play or start him. There is no entitlement other than earning the position.

Nicely put.

I mean what does Montgomery think? They bring in the best DT in the league and he should start over him? And when Griffin is 100% he's a good bit better than Monty as well. Matty got it right, Monty needs to show that he can step in and start next to big Al next year when Griff will likely be elsewhere.

I like that he's upset! It shows that he cares. It shows that he wants to be the best around here. He better not demand a trade though! He better prove to all of us why he thinks he's better than Haynesworth. It won't be that hard either. All he has to do is bellyflop Romo ONCE! Knock that gay grin off his face! THATS IT!

Well I am pretty sure that I heard Montgomery came into camp out of shape. How do you come into camp out of shape when they have brought in the Big Fella? Is he even ahead of Golston right now?

Now Griff tends to get nicked, the Big Fella gets tired after two plays in a row, and Blache always runs the linemen in and out frequently so Monty should get plenty of playing time this year.

I do not want him traded to the Panthers. We play them this year and could possibly play them down the road. Now if they want to throw us a first rounder, that might be a different story...

The Rams player was referring to him wearing down during the course of a game. I'm just wondering about this talk about him being out of shape right now.

MTK · 09-02-2009, 10:56 AM

At his size I have no doubt he will get winded from time to time, but is this anything new?

Maybe, but from their tone it was more of concern rather than what we should expect.

At least my understanding.

That report on RI that said AH was winded during the Pitt. game because of a "tight jersey" sounded pretty weak to me. How can a jersey be tight enough over shoulder pads that it can "constrain" breathing, which is what AH or the skins were saying?

AH might be out of shape & his knee might not be ready for lots of work. They might be rotating more than we'd like.

I took it as the jersey was too tight in the chest area

I am not 100% sold that Montgomery and Golsten are our future. They are good, don't get me wrong. But they are not great. They are good in spurts. They are not consistent. While good DT are hard to come by, I would not be crushed if we traded him for something of value.

skinsfan69 · 09-02-2009, 11:22 AM

Monty has been solid but nothing special. Maybe the demotion will motivate him to reach his full potential. I don't think he's going anywhere. We need him.

You know what I always say....Don't get mad, get better.
