  1. This is absolutely true. Russ didnt hire Dick Jauron (Levy), Russ didnt draft Whitner over Ngata (Levy/Modrak), Russ didnt trade back up into the first round to select McCargo (Levy/Modrak), Russ didnt blow money on failed, high priced free agents (John Guy), what Russ has done in his short time as a GM is draft promising young OL, rid the team of a malcontent OT (Peters), and brought in a hall of fame WR (though on the downside of his career). IMO, the only thing we can criticize Russ for, is drafting Maybin over Oher, although the book is not out on Maybin and hindsight is always 20/20. Dont blame Russ Brandon for finally starting to get things right on this roster, blame Levy, Modrak, Guy, and Ralph...
  2. Yeah they did grow up together. Somebody (James Brown?) had sat them down and interviewed them together. Questions were the typical: who's faster? who has the better hands? better route runner? stronger? etc. and they often reflected on their childhood growing up. I tried to find the video on youtube, but no luck...
  3. I've heard this SAME thing from those who attended games last year...
  4. hahahaha... the DB train never stops. Enough with the secondary, the picks next year should be QB, OL, and front 7. NOTHING ELSE!!
  5. Sometimes I wish that Lee Evans would go to a team with a more than capable QB, so that we can hear all of the, "nice job front office, for trading yet another talented player off this roster. " People around here whine too much about the players on this team that actually have talent and aren't able to utilize it. Maybe it's frustration, or maybe it's just stupidity...
  6. You must not be one of the many posters on this board who have the unfortunate task of actually attending the barf fests. According to them, we have WRs (namely T.O. and Evans) running around open on almost every play, yet the ball never gets delivered to them. The last time I checked, Lee Evans can't throw to Lee Evans. It wouldn't matter how many times he's getting open if the ball never flies his way...
  7. b/c he knows that the QB is the problem and can't substantiate a claim against that fact...
  8. Tony Boselli was also a hall of fame talent (when healthy)...
  9. I've been one of D. Bell's supporters. I believe that he has the tools, but needs to add strength in the offseason and needs to focus on keeping his head in the game - eliminating unnecessary penalties. I think he does have a high ceiling though and I'm looking forward to seeing how this season prepares him for the next...
  10. YES!! Sadly the stat is true... He barely eclipsed 300 yds ONCE in his Stanford career and has yet to throw for 300 in an NFL game.
  11. Leaders not only hold themselves accountable for their actions, but they also hold others accountable as well. Edwards does neither. All you ever here is, "It was frustrating/We had a good week of practice but we couldn't get it done/There were opportunities for plays to be made, but for whatever reason we weren't able to capitalize on those/We need to be able to hit on some of those plays/We have a good group of guys and we are learning with every game/We have coaches that are heading us in the right direction/etc/etc/etc"
  12. Fitzpatrick is definitely a back up QB and everyone around here realizes that. What people like you have to realize, is that Edwards is also a backup QB. Stop trying to defend his scared and gutless play, I've seen enough of Trentative...
  13. Evans wouldn't endorse Edwards as the unquestioned starter (something he did do with Losman).
  14. Fitzpatrick threw for more yards in his first NFL start (310), than Trentative has EVER thrown for in his career! (this includes ALL years in the NFL, as well as ALL games played at Stanford)
  15. Jets didnt exactly beat us to him. Mangold went 3 picks later after we traded back up to select John McCargo...
  16. Hopefully Wood will man that spot next year and let Hangartner compete with a drafted/free agent RG.
  17. Wait... A Safety actually worth taking in the top 10?!
  18. I think he'll be hired as one of the skeletons that are often on display in science classrooms.
  19. Trent: "We never got into any rhythm. It's frustrating because it goes right in practice and since it doesnt work on the weekends, it's pretty frustrating. We have to get it fixed" "Our headcoach has guys headed in the right direction and can get it fixed" WHAT?!?! Edwards looks everywhere but inside of himself...
  20. Just made one change
  21. The ONLY reason why I want Trentative Edwards to continue starting? His play GUARANTEES a better draft slot...
  22. ACCURACY?!?!?! BWAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha
  23. Lee Evans postgame: "something is going on that isn't making any sense. Something. We are a much better offense than this"
  24. Uh RayFinkle... You got the right - the opposing QB completed 2 passes and we didnt win the game!!! If I told you that pregame what would have been your reason for the loss? All falls on the offense and the player that distributes the ball. If you CANT see that Edwards is a big problem on this team, you're HOPELESS...
