#98QBKiller Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 We seriously might have to start looking at FA safeties to fill in for the rest of the season if we want to even think of making a run. Meriweather made an immediate impact yesterday and I just don't think Doughty/Williams/Gomes are enough to keep the secondary afloat for the rest of the year.

pjfootballer Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 This is another reason why we should've kept Landry! We had no answers at the safety position, yet we allowed this guy to walk, now look at us! Congratulations, you are the first member to complain about players no longer on the team. You win the internets. I swear to god, everytime one of our players goes down, we have to get these types of posts. The "what if" posts. Can't you guys let old players go? Give it a rest.

pjfootballer Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I swear to god I am going to start banning for the Rogers/Landry stupidity at this point. And of course, they wouldn't even get "why."<added--If you're among the brain-dead, don't reply to this vent-post "explaining" why "it was a mistake." Just keep moving. > Oh thank god. I'm SOOOOOO tired of seeing these posts everytime something doesn't go right. I've been up in arms about us living in the "what if" world as I have been ranting on Kyle running a stretch play on 3rd and short. Posts like this guys make me want to poke my eyes out with chopsticks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DarrellsMyHero28 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Awful news. But honestly, the team we're facing on Thursday has probably had a worse dose of the injury bug overall. No excuses, next man up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rumplestilskin Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 DJ did play better yesterday but we already had the game in hand. This sucks. I guess Josh wilsons injury is minor. Here is hoping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It gets too much. But, my God, this hurts. I knew Brandon would help this D a lot because the biggest thing it suffered from was poor athleticism at the safety position and he boosted that considerably. We saw how effective he was coming up fast and making tackles with great physicality against FBs and TEs running quick routes. I just hope that Gomes wakes up. He filled in for Meriweather yesterday was as aggressive as I've seen him since the Saints game. Something went horribly wrong with Gomes after that Saints game and it has created a huge problem for our Safety corps. If Gomes can start flying around and playing physical again we might be ok.

Sticksboi05 Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Haslett cannot allow us to play with the bums we had before, activate someone from the PS or sign a FA. Pray for a diamond in the rough. We know what Williams etc. bring to the table. Dog****, Can't hurt to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taayox Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Well This sucks. Maybe we Let Dhall play more at either safety positions. I respect what our front office has done so far, but I need to know what they were doing when they allowed the patriots to snag Aquib Talib from the bucks for I think a 4th round pick when we needed all the help we could get in our secondary?

Rocky52Mc Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 He'd of been done for the season in game 1 if we'd of kept him.. Believe that! Umm what? No. Just because you have a period of injuries doesn't mean that's the situation forever. Can't stand when people get that fixated in their minds. Without surgery - Landry has played the most games in a single season for the Jets, since 2009 with the Redskins. Jets - 5th ranked in pass defense with a LONG play of 41. Redskins - 29th ranked pass defense with a LONG play of 82. They have less sacks than us, less picks than us and have let up 6 less touchdown than us with LaRon Landry absent in our secondary, and present in theirs. I'm all for keeping Shanahan around but this is one of those FO moves where they failed on their gamble. They instead chose - Tanard Jackson and DOUBLE failed, knowing the risk involved with him. So if anyone wants to argue this further - please, tell me how we went in the right direction here. Given the salary cap I do understand why it was difficult, but Landry signed an injury clause deal with the Jets for 3.5 million and Tanard Jackson came here for range 700,000 with the possibility of around 2,000,000.

SemperFi Skins Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 I'd give Deon Grant a shot if we still plan on staying competitive. He's good for a few INTs and maybe a sack or two. At 33 years old, I'd only bring him in the finish out the year and hopefully gain knowledge of Eli's passing game. If anyone knows how to read Eli, it'll be him...

It's not smart to keep someone around who consistenly rags on our on coaching/medical staff and then refuses to have the proper care in order to maintain his health on and off the field... yet, still take photos of himself in the mirror Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigevhfan Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 Unreal. I can't recall a time in 30 years of watching football that any team has had to deal with so many injuries. Merriweather played well when he was on the field too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Posted November 19, 2012 Share Posted November 19, 2012 edit babble listen, you and every other clueless one on this matter...while their were good arguments on BOTH sides (make sure "ya'all" get THAT), we got blasted by the UNEXPECTED cap penalty and YES both the meriweather and jackson events (which were not where we wanted to go before the cap blast) ended up badly, it was as much bad luck as "poor moves" you amazing dotards (meant generally). You (any one-sided mourner of the departed) don't look smart using hindsight inspired by fanboy manlove, you look like unimaginative unoriginal unthinking igwads saying the same dumbass **** for the hundred-thousandth time, and appeal only to other igwads.

Well with Allen in the front office and Raheem Morris on staff, I am sure we knew enough about Talib. Apparently they did not think he was worth the cost. I am comfortable with that, knowing that we probably knew more about Talib than any team other than the Bucs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 33 years old, I'd only bring him in the finish out the year and hopefully gain knowledge of Eli's passing game. If anyone knows how to read Eli, it'll be him... I'd like to help him with lesson #1 on Eli since we seemed confused about this topic in October: If the Giants are losing in the final 2 minutes, try to maybe guard against the TD because Eli will attempt to bring his team back using the forward pass.
