Wesley vs Page

[sedated]

Why is greg wesley still playing?

all page does is make plays, while wesley doesn't do a damn thing except push people out of bounds.

why don't we play the young guys?

pollard has made enough plays to warrant some time too, since the season is over.

Pollard is a special teams specimen...

I almost wonder why he didn't make the pro bowl as the 'special teamer'...

Two blocked punts, several big hits on punt returns, a forced fumble on a kickoff (maybe two...)

The dude is a playmaker.

Because he's a rookie........you have to be 100 times better than everyone else to make it as a rookie.

He may not be a good defensive player but how will we know if he doesn't get to try? His effort alone warrants an opportunity, not to mention his big play and big hit ability.

+

Bennie wasn't a liability on defense. Guy was a decent nickel safety and a damn fine blitzer.

Yeah, and we may have ended up using a seventh rounder on a starting safety. So the **** what?
