I mean people won't say that Bowe doesn't drop the ball. They will say, "Bowe drops the ball BUT......" That's why this is different. It's denial I guess. DJ is a better player but, his weak spot is fundamental tackling. No one wants to hear it.

"DJ could stand to continually improve his tackling" is a fair statement.
You said:
"Brandon Siler is a better tackler than Derrick Johnson"
That's not being rational and anti-homer. That's being reeruned. Brandon Siler is in fact NOT better than Derrick Johnson at tackling.
You also seem to have a hard on for every single Romeo decision. His decision to not give Powe more serious reps, for example, means that Powe is not the right guy to start against the Falcons at NT. So how do you explain Romeo's decision to start Belcher over Siler? Is Belcher a better tackler than both Siler AND Johnson?
