By the way, I disagree with you completely. I think Hali's going to be a playmaker. And I think he's a potential impact player.

That's cool. You're entitled.
I suppose some people worry about crow-eating threads, but in the anonymous world of the internet, it's not really a big deal. As far as rep is concerned, I'm just giving my opinion. I overstated the title of the other thread 'Is Tamba Hali even on this team?', but I do agree he is a solid DE. I merely think he has a low ceiling for improvement and has been AWOL in the pass rush. Others voiced the same concern when he was drafted. So far all he's shown is to be an improvement over Hicks (which IS a relief) so I think people seem ready to take that next jump into thinking he'll become a game-changing force. There's nothing wrong with that. He'll play a long time. I just don't think he'll give the extra dimension this team needs.
