What today means for Jared Page

He needs to get his ass to practice, sure.. But he's hardly the first guy to sit out some voluntary practices over contract issues.

He pretty much single handedly won us 2 games against Oakland the past couple years. You gotta respect the guy for that at least... It wouldn't be a bad thing if he still made it to camp and got involved.

I think people make too much of big plays made by players that are otherwise extremely average players.
("extremely average". I know it ain't right so don't blow a gasket. Just making a point.)

Studebaker's interceptions against Pittsburg, DJ's big game against the Donkeys, Page's plays against the Raiders.

Guys haven't done anything else to warrant the drool.

That being said, we really don't have anyone else, so I'd rather have Page lining up alongside Berry than any of the other scrubs we have on the roster, until someone steps up and actually wins the job.
