...ok, now that I've appropriately prefaced that...this guy sucks!...I cannot stand having this guy in the lineup. Too many times he was exploited by opposing offenses and it was unbearable to watch.

He's a great team player and showed a lot of guts when playing. I dislike watching him on the field for us.

Well, he filled in admirably for Sean Taylor after we lost him in '07. His first game starting in his place (Dallas I think) he looked bad, but afterwards was solid. And last year he was hurt. The guy is all heart and effort, but definitely lacks raw athleticism and ability. Great locker room guy, very high character.... and also our 4th safety behind Landry, Horton, and Moore.

I hate bringing it up, but does anyone else ever think about how absurd our defense would be right now with Sean still here?? Sheesh. He'd most likely be the best safety in the league, or close to it with Polamalu and Reed. He'd be far and away the best safety in the NFC. Anyway, just thinking out loud, I'd rather not take the thread in that direction.
