I hope lawyer sits this one out and comes back for the Ravens game. I don't believe we'll need him against the dolphins. Raaally I don't....

If I didn't know any better, I'd think he's asking for the Coy Wire sucks thread to be bumped.... :P

With Milloy in the lineup, we could have a winning record. Seriously. This D is vulnerable in the deep middle. Thats the soft spot. Milloy is indispensible in that area.

 

Consider the following...

 

1- Think Milloy would have been providing Clements with over the top help vs. Jax on the play Jimmy Smith caught the ball. At least Smith would have had to worry about Milloy laying him out. Wire was nowhere to be seen.

 

2- Think Milloy would get beat by Ronald Curry in the back of the Raider end zone?? Or in the 4th quarter on the long pass that led to the FG???

 

3- Where to begin vs. NE??? Brady took advantage of the deep middle all day, 1st and 35 and you get 44??? There were other examples. Not saying we win the game, but played better and give ourselves more of a shot.

 

4- No way the refs flag a vet like Milloy on a cheesy pass interference penalty in the Jet end zone in the 2nd quarter. No obvious push, just a hand on the back. No way.

 

With Milloy, we're sitting at least at 2-2 and maybe 3-1. He is a huge part of the pass defense, which has been sorely lacking.

Good point...at least with Milloy in there we will give the illusion that we're not soft in the deep middle....

I read where Peter King was writing an article about the biggest impact injuries to teams. I think Milloy missing 4 games certainly qualifies.

While I agree that he is hopeless at Safety, don't you think he's a valuable player on special teams?

IMHO he is nothing 'special' on STs. Certainly not worth taking a roster spot for that reason only. Especially also given the willingness of this staff to play starters on STs and thus de-emphasize 'ST specialists'.

 

For some reason people have this opinion of Wire as this Tasker-like STs demon - I personally never saw it. Don't forget he didn't even lead the team in STs tackles last year. That honor went to Stevenson, and he was cut.
