I agree with the statements about Dick Jauron, the coaching staff, and the '06 free agency class. I see where Marv was going by bringing in Triplett as he was coming off of a championship team and seemed to be a major factor in their ability to stop the run, though.
Now, you're Nate Clements comments just show that you have a misinformed opinion. We had already slapped the franchise tag on Nate once, and promised to let him walk after that one time. Now you may think that we were dumb for not slapping him with it again, but do you realize that every time you slap the franchise tag on a player after the first time the price tag goes up by $2 million each time? Nate would have been receiving more from the Bills than he is getting in San Francisco.
Whitner is a fine player, and is consistently around the ball looking to make a play, as well as filling the role of leadership in the locker room. Butler is the best right guard we have had in a while and no other back carries for more yards a carry in the NFL behind the right guard slots more than Lynch behind Butler. Kyle Williams is undersized but certainly not a horrible player and Keith Ellison was merely meant to be a special teamer.
I'm sorry, i realize that we just were handed one of the worst losses we could've imagined this season, but it certainly doesn't give you the right to make a mis-informed and idotic statement like this.
You are unhappy with the coaching staff? Fine, we all are. But to say that key players on this team and the smart moves our front office made concerning Clements, Dockery, and Walker are completely off balance simply wrong. I am pretty sure you can hear people in San Francisco asking why they paid so much for Nate Clements.
Just remember hindsight is always 20/20, and you sir are only proving the point.
