-walt harris is gone and having a field day in SF. not that he was all that good, but as vet min depth he'd be useful right now.
-ryan clark is gone and doing very well for pittsburg on the cheap.
-lavar is gone and warrick "worse than a trash can" holdman is starting in his place (no, lavar's nothing but average right now, but when we went on that 5-0 run, guess who played well and started every single game?)
-prioleau is on IR
-springs hasn't really played
-DT injuries forced low round rookies into the lineup... and while golston has been okay, he's not griffin.

we have wright, rumph, archuleta, carter, holdman, and golston playing which are all downgrades from last year, not to mention rogers subbing for springs. there's NO WAY you go from 9th to 28th due to just one guy.

springs coming back is a good thing. vincent at 35 and vet min is probably still better than archuleta, and he should finally give our skins SOME kind of safety coverage. I wish we had moved on buchannon (maybe we did and lost), cause he could really help. He's from the U, but he doesn't like to tackle, so GW may not have even bothered to make the call.

I would like to see vincent and springs in the lineup ASAP, as well as more mcintosh and posey and less holdman. more healthy DTs, and more wynn. I'm tired of watching our defense try to play with 8-10 men most downs. carter takes himself out of too many plays, and holdman has a cloak of invisibility arch can't cover anything, and our CBs can only cover half the time.


that doesn't even cover the lack of running in play calls or inconsistant play from brunell and co... just a bit bummed cause i'm having a hard time figuring out how we can go 8-2 over the last ten games with this schedule.
