    Here is hoping Isaiah Buggs has demonstrated steady improvement since Training Camp. Tyson Alualu can hold his own but will need to be spelled every now and then. L.T. Walton is back but how much better is he compared to Buggs?!?!



    Time to find out.

    Worst part is not trusting him to ever make it through a season.

    Whenever I see the OP, all I can think is, "I'm Benny Blanco. From the Bronx"!

    Yet getting boatloads of money for half a season work? has me wondering?
    Am I an antique or shouldn't you work each and every play to be compensated.
    My employer expects us to work for our paycheck everyday. Why do some players take off plays?

    When you get hurt in the job you should get paid.

    Yeah, this. I'm not criticizing or suggesting he's not hurt. Just wish the kid could stay on the field. He's turning into one of those guys I worry about being available late in the season.

    What's the over/under on Bell moving on with his rap? Has to be around 1.5 years.


    Edit: He threw away about half his potential earnings with his big head.

    I agree just bad luck the sad part is if this keeps up we are screwed with a 14.9 mil cap hit the next 3 years. That is the part that hurts he will be our 2nd highest paid next year........

    Hey NY.

    Unfortunately, his body is undependable for this line of work. I am sure he is just as frustrated, no not even just, even more than the rest of us given his injury history. Some athletes are just "built" like that. What sucks even more is that it seems he was really starting to come into his own this season. He was a projected first rounder I believe. STEELWINDS

    our schedule is pretty easy. 9-7 minimum and if we go 10-6 i think Tomlin deserves another year

    He's getting another year regardless, and atleast one more after that.

    I have been pretty hard on Tomlin as well as the other coaches, but if we go 9-7 or better I have to agree it would be pretty hard to let him go after all the injuries. I am sure I will change my mind 10x over before the end of the season lol.
