Maybe being benched and another year in the system he will start to live up to his contract. I think our D as a whole started thinking to much last year and did not just go out and play. They just never had that play that got them rolling.

Too much pressure? I think these guys are making excuses. Carter may have rushed the passer a little better but he still could not hold up on the run. If I rememer correctly the Giants had in 75 year old Bob Whitfield and he manhandled Carter the last game of the year while Tiki ran wild. If you ask me we should bring in a DE that can play run downs for Carter. He's just not strong enough to be an everydown 4-3 end.
