Should we call this the Gaz Doughnut Planet Theory? Chiefsplanet physicists may want a name so they can study it.

Ummm…doughnuts…

Shawn Barber is a guy that seems to get a free pass quite a bit on the Planet. I was pretty hyped when we landed him, as I'm sure many other in here were. He's done very little to live up to the hype. Like this guy said, he's pretty non-existant in pass coverage. I can live with that if he's tough against the run, but he isn't. He over-pursues almost as much as Beisel, and I consider him the worst tackler on the team. I can't count the number of times I've seen a player get 3-4 more yards because he tried to tackle with his shoulder and forgot to use his arms. The most recent was a hit on Lewis near the sideline where he made no attempt to wrap up.

Holliday loooks like a certified FA bust, but Barber hasn't been all that outstanding either. What I'd give to have Donnie Edwards back.

yeah, and I thought Barber was supposed to be good in coverage....kinda like Holliday was a "run stopper" I guess

I remember wanting Takeo Spikes over Barber when they were both available as FAs. I'm quite disappointed in Barber. Does anybody know how Spikes is doing?

Spikes is thinking he should have signed with a playoff contender instead of Buffalo.

Everybody's a comedian.

But HOW IS HE PLAYING?

Deberg_1990 · 10-08-2004, 01:40 PM

We have many overhyped players on this team....Sims, Holliday, Barber, Hicks and Woods...If they were all gone next year and replaced, i coud live with it..

He was an animal against us last year, but had little help on the field with him.

What is it with the Eagles 'D' players when they go to other teams?

Barber? Hugh Douglas? And last offseason I really wanted us to sign either CB Taylor or Vincent from that team. But I'm not hearing much about them either.

Vincent's hurt and Taylor is the nickle back for the Seahawks.

Another note on the 4 LB set we used on that first play. We use that in goalline situations a lot, and it never works. Mitchell can be counted on to overpursue and cover the wrong gap, leaving the RB to get in fairly easily. I don't know if he's thinking too much or what, but he has shown very little nose for the ball.
