im the first to vote yes.......even tho i agree witht hte fact that the team comes before the player, but a couple yrs ago he was the face of our franchise, he was good when we sucked and hes good now that were good, aanyone who was ever the face of the franchise should get BETTER* treatment than a player who just "showup." also he got that big a contract b.c "HE CAN PLAY"..... he performed this season even after the problems he had with coaches and front office....( contract greivence, being benched, media, comming off season ending injury) he deserved his pay............honestly how many big plays have u seen holdman make?......hes jst an average person who plug the gaps when he was supposed to. when LA was in he made big plays...he had more TFL then any redskin on the team this season and he oplayed 1/3 of a season.......

these stats show that the guy can play.....look at his sack column in 03' when he was 100% he has the ability to make the big play! hes fast, he can hit, he can get off his blocks, the only thing that slows him down is his so called "freelancing" and this season since he did a lot better job executing the play call, he didnt make the big plays he usually did when "freelancing".........work with LA! work with him to rework his contract..........this guy is a "core guy" as u guys love to ssay and love for gibbs to have........you want "core guy" its this guy...........micheal irvin used to run his mouth to the media also look at him now.....what im trying to say is no ones perfect and this guy talks with, and plays with emotion.........
