    What a joke he is now, 0 tackles 1 personal foul, good thing we let him go this must be his last season, completely non factor for the bengals all season...

    Really, you'd have thought he was Lamar Woodley or something.

    I remember some people hoping we bring him back next year, along with Hines and Franco

    I was bummed he wasn't coming back, just because I was anxious to see him healthy again. I don't think it's reasonable to judge his performance with the Bengals. He played...what, a third of all defensive snaps? He never really fit there. The way we struggled at times this year, I think he would have been a blessing had the two parties reached a deal they could agree on.

    He's not having the best season, but I think he deserves a little more respect than being called a joke?

    Exactly. Anyone thinking he wouldn't have fared better here is fooling themselves.

    Harrison made two mistakes:

    1. Not taking the paycut offer to stay with the Steelers.

    2. Signing with the Bengals who didn't play a system he would fit into well.


    Ike, Troy....hope you guys have learned a lesson here. Foote came back because the grass wasn't greener. Same could be said about James, the grass wasn't greener.

    Not only is he playing totally out of position,his body language tells me he hates being there,even though it's his fault. Mock me all you want but if we lose Woodley or Worilds I would take him back in a heartbeat. I recently read a write-up on Carter and it proved why I always thought he was terrible.
    like a buddy of mine likes to say,"It's (Harrison) better than what we got". Our depth at OLB is awful.

    I'd like to see OP say that to his face. LOL. The highlight of his season was Hardknocks though.

    :this!:
    Dont care what jersey he has on, he ll always be a Steeler. :applaud:

    He would have been here if his agent hadnt been a dumb ass. I would have rather had him here making the $4.5 mil they offered him than Woodley and his $8-10 mil.

    I wouldn't call him a joke, out of respect, but let's see him make that run now.

    I was really bummed out to see him leave. He is a Steeler player if I've ever seen one. And the play above was one of the best in Super Bowl history. I just wish he could have swallowed his pride and stayed with the team instead of going to the cincinasty bungles. Didn't he say he was gonna retire after this year? Seems like I remember him saying that.

    Point is the guy was a great Steeler that deserves a little more respect than your showing.
