    Yep. He appears to have Limas Sweed syndrome. If he did not play today, we might have won.

    Moncrief had those injured fingers in preseason, they must be still bothering him, he needs to sit on the bench until he can help the team.

    I would have cut him last Sunday night and made him get his own ride home.

    I would definitely have cut him today by halftime. Wouldn't even have let him use the team showers. Dump his locker in a box and throw it in the parking lot.

    DHB got clowned the whole time he was here...Moncrief dropped more balls in 2 weeks than DHB did the entire time he was here ... I seriously think they should bring DHB back he can at least help Coach some guys up and play ST'S...

    Moncrief either need to take a few weeks off to heal that finger or cut himself from the roster because clearly he can't be trusted with the ball ...coaches need to decide

    Cut him tomorrow. There is no upside keeping him. Go with the young wideouts and live or die with them. I'd rather see the young guys play and drop a few than to watch a washed up vet who no longer can catch.

    2 years and 9 million, more than likely won’t be cut, but he needs to drop down to #4 or be a scratch.

    It’s got to be the finger causing his issues. He dropped 4 passes all of last season from what I was reading.

    It’s time to get dionte Johnson and Washington more involved.

    Sign him back tomorrow. Sign a statue of him that can catch.

    If we cut Moncrief, we save $1.5 million against the cap this year but take a $1.75 million dead money cap hit in 2020. I think he can contribute when healthy, but has no business being active on game day until his finger heals.

    I'm willing to accept that he's got an injured finger that affects his catching ability. It sucks but it happens. What I can't accept is Tomlin playing him when he's injured and can't catch the ball.

    Cutting him makes no sense at this point. I'd sit him until his finger heals. He MIGHT be pretty good once healthy. Better than a practice squad receiver at least.

    Put him at CB. He could be our next Ike Taylor.
