Just heard Chaney being moved to Mike and Matthews to Will. Anyone else hear this?

Yeah.  Problem with Matthews is that he looks like an OLB, but he's too slow.  That's the main difference between him and Clay....Clay can flat out move.

I agree. Chaney's their best cover LB (this past Sunday notwithstanding) and their fastest. Matthews does look pretty slow.

It's possible that the team feels Matthews will benefit from not having to call the defense and play read/react quite as much.

You know what he'd really benefit from? Playing nothing but special teams.

The man. The myth. The legend.

i think it more likely has to do with getting him away from the gaps in the wide nine where he often had an olineman on him.....i cant recall the last time ive seen a linebacker who was weaker at getting off blocks than this guy....thats not to say the same thing wont happen at wil (think mark simenou) and i suspect gf is right and that he probably would best serve the team busting up wedges

Its a start...next step is the bench.

Give Clayton some farging run at WIL

Rome

If anyone can recognize zesty linebacker play, it's the Ikester.

Eagles have allowed 292 rushing yards so far; its the most allowed through week two for them since 1996. Per Reuben Frank

They made the playoffs in 96, so all is well.  RodneyPeeteRules!

Munson

I remember going into 1996 being young and impressionable and believing in Rodney Peete, then he tore is knee up and all was lost

How the hell did they make the playoffs that year? Ty Detmer? Koy Detmer?


He was the week 1 starter for the Panthers team that made Thrash and Pinkston their bitches in the NFCCG

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds

Ty finished the year. In fact, I believe Ty got hurt in the WC loss @ San Fran and Peete came back in. So I guess, technically, Peete finished the season.
