Maybe Betts Rock Mason or Aldrige. But like I said if they were doing their job why would he bring someone in. I would think it is because he did things better than some of the other backs. Why would Mason get some carries last game if Betts was producing? What has Rock done this year? Who knows. It could be anyone of them besides CP.

Mason had what, 3 carries, and basically did nothing. I wouldn't draw the conclusion that Mason was in there because of anything Betts was or wasn't doing. I think they wanted to work him in to his first live action and see what he could do.

Sometimes you have to just take things at face value. You seem to want to make everything into a conspiracy theory.

I honestly don't see Betts going anywhere during the season. If they need a roster spot they're not going to cut someone that will result in a cap hit of nearly $2M. Plus believe it or not the coaches like him.

I don't think Rock gets cut during the season either.

You make some good points. But your are right in saying the coaches like him. But going by Zorns judgement that doesn't say much. As far as Betts not going anywhere. That is because of the 2M cap hit. I agree with you on that totally. But he still is not producing. Who knows about Rock. I think the thread he is holding on by is called Danny Smith.

You are right it wouldn't be good to draw a conclusion from Mason playing. But we usually dont use 3 rbs in a game. Not saying its a bad idea. But it may be a change in philopshy from years past. When we did we brought Rock in. But dont say it has nothing to do with Betts not performing. Its probably a little bit of both. I repsect your points. The reality is that its a very sticky situations for these reasons stated above.

1. Betts 2M contract (unless we trade)
2. Rock on ST and Danny Smith lost 2 other ST players this offseason (not producing)

But saying that it doesn't mean they are producing. Just that we are in a pickle. So the decisions we should sometimes may be difficult because of those two factor.

*To add to this our O-line isn't producing on rushing plays. We might have RT's replacement but we still need to fill in that slot in my opinion incase someone else goes down. Now or in the future and someone will be a casuality. It might be Mason. It might be Aldrige. It might be Rock. But someone is going.

So we are both partly right. Its like Technicalities vs. Talent/Production. Both points are good ones. Each has to be taking into consideration. Thanks for the insight.

Ok, I was just going to stand by and watch/Attempt to read your butchering of the english language but this is too much. You could have just said, "schoolbus toothpaste mudpuddle Zorn", and that would have made about as much sense as anything else you write.

All bs aside, I don't know if you are in a hurry when you post or what it is, but the stuff you write is VERY hard to read and almost impossible to understand.

Is that better?

Yes I am writing fast. But you are being anal. I will proof read from now on before I hit the "submit reply" button. Does that make you feel better? Some people are more worried about grammar and correcting people than talking football.

What I am interested in is being able to understand a person's post the first time I read it. When you have to keep rereading a persons post to try to guess what they were trying to say it is hard to even take them seriously.

You know what I do. Ignore it and go to the next post. Try it.

I haven't noticed you taking the high road in any thread since you have been a member here. The perfect example was the squirrel comment. Perhaps you should heed your own advice.

Hope you get my point. This is not a English exam. Its a football board.

Glad we got back on track.
