Munson - Kearse has been a farging bust.  Say it with me, B-U-S-T.

Howard's been a disaster, Patterson is useless, Cole is a part-time player and Walker is a joke.



I agree about Kearse not living up to expectations....or rather the insane amount of money they paid him. The money he's been payed for only getting 8 sacks a year is what bothers me the most.

But he was an everydown player, and didn't ahve jack shtein opposite of him until late last year/this past year. And he was off to a great start, got what...4.5 sacks in two games? Before "killa" took out his knee.  IGY, the way the defensivle line was playing, I don't think it was much of a stretch to say Kearse probably would have broken double digit sacks again. Cole was the real benefactor of Kearse being in there though....Once Kearse went down, Cole wasn't ready to take on the full-time role and still be as effective a pass rusher.

Cole/Howard taking 90% of the snaps at DE....not good.

Of course IGY is right about hoping for Kearse to come back and be effective....I doubt it happens. Which leaves the Eagles with an extra hole at DE that they really don't need right now considering the problems at DT and LB, and SS....

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

ice grillin you

can you make the argument that he would have gotten there....absolutely he had a very good start....he was even causing turnovers for the first time in forever

but i tend to lean towards his five year record and the fact that he had a few sacks against the worst line in football (texans) and a joke of a line in the giants
i can take a phrase thats rarely heard...flip it....now its a daily word

igy gettin it done like warrick

im the board pharmacist....always one step above yous

True. But again....Having a fresh Cole, Howard inside, and Kearse on the outside on 3rd downs...someone was gonna get some sacks. Cole was defiantely the favorite to finish with the most sacks in his 3rd down role, but without teams being able to chip and double team and concentrate on Kearse play after play, he was bound to get his this year. It's just a real shame he got hurt, was probably gonna hve his best season as an Eagle.
