he's been a good pickup for them. They really needed a hard hitter in the secondary.

Demonpenz · 10-30-2009, 11:03 AM

he is the same thing that all the scouts say, good against the run dog shit in coverage, there has been some aligator arms for WR going over the middle against the texans

That's what happens when you use a player correctly.

It's the tights

The Texans run defense has been stout lately, im sure Pollard taught them all to tackle

suds79 · 10-30-2009, 11:06 AM

Yeah I'll never understand that move.

If you don't want him as your starter, fine.

But at the very least he's an excellent STs player.

He just wanted to GTFO of KC. "Pollard may have saved our season."

jidar · 10-30-2009, 11:07 AM

Pollard was never as bad as this board thought he was (almost noone could be as bad as this board thinks they are really... quite an optimistic bunch we are) and I don't think our front office is so dumb that they thought he was bad either (after all, they didn't cut him they found someone to trade for him). I'm convinced he was released for other issues.. call it not fitting the mold.

Not on of 'the right 53' lol

Haley seems more concerned with "sending a message" than proper coaching.

Yep.

They are using him down in the box in run support, and not trying to make him something he's not - a coverage DB.

Houston's run defense has gone from 31st to 21st - and they are allowing over 2 yards per carry less since he's found the lineup.

Amazing what coaching can do

I think, possibly, Pollard was part of the reason why we have Cassel.

If Cassel hadn't had a season starting for the Pats, would he have been brought here?

Of course Pioli already knew Cassle so maybe it wouldn't have mattered.

I wouldn't have minded keeping the "bone crusher"here, especially for special teams.

**The Franchise** · 10-30-2009, 11:15 AM

It would have been nice if they would have let Page play FS and let him be a ballhawk....while Pollard is down in the box for run support.
