That being said, after seeing the replay I don't think there was a facemask, but it could have easily been a hands to the head call. Still, 'Zona made a good defensive play.

I could not agree more.
It was a good no call. The ball came out of QB's hands before the accidental face mask. Plus the DB did not pull or use the hands to the face mask to his advantage in any way. I'm not even sure he knew his hands were on the face mask.
Packers need to let it go.

We can all thank Vinny. Personally I was stunned when we cut him.

MTK · 01-11-2010, 01:53 PM

I would assume Buges made the call as to who he wanted to keep on the OL, not Vinny.

Lotus · 01-11-2010, 01:55 PM

^ Well then, thanks a lot, Buges.

SmootSmack · 01-11-2010, 01:57 PM

Vinny had little to nothing to do with cutting Bridges. That was up to Zorn and Bugel (with significant input from Stump Mitchell and Sherman Smith I'm sure). We can think Vinny for even giving those guys to option to consider Bridges

Monkeydad · 01-11-2010, 03:00 PM

We can thank Vinny for the total lack of talent on the line though. Bugel could only work with what Vinny gave him.

I thank Vinny for the high blood pressure I developed over the past couple years.

Ah, yes isn't that funny. He's not good enough to start or be a backup RT or RG for a 4-12 team, but he's good enough to start at LT for an 11-6 playoff team. Somethings wrong with this picture. Point your finger at Buges and Cerrato for that decision. Both are done, thankfully.

That's why we need to continue developing Kelly.

Yeah I was definitely surprised that we ushered Bridges out when the camp reports said he was doing well.. and the people that we chose to keep over him... so weird.

There's also a big difference between Bridges blocking for Kurt Warner and Bridges blocking for Jason Campbell. And this really isn't a knock on Campbell as much as it is praise for Warner. Dude is just redonkulous. His pocket awareness and ability to get rid of the ball at just the right moment is uncanny. He can make even the most routine of linemen look like all-pros.

Well said. I think people forget that sometimes. We look players released from our team, see them performing well elsewhere and assume the Skins made a bad personnel move.

This is true, but could he really be much worse than Batiste or Jones?
