Rayburn isn't better than Simon. Let's get real here. Simon gets a much better push up the middle on that offensive line to help collapse the pocket. I love Patterson, but Simon only makes the team better. I don't care how overweight he got.

i'm not being foolish at all, you said that the DT rotation of Walker, Patterson, Hollis, and Rayburn could be better than Walker, Patterson, Hollis, and Simon. so basically, you are saying that Rayburn is better than Simon.

bull.

you did not have walker in your post, you had marshall. i am saying that walker very well could be (and had showed signs) better than simon was. considering that simon was about 75lbs overweight, and had completely disappeared for half a season last year.

because it makes the kool-aid taste better.

i just want somebody to tell me that a rotation of Hollis, Patterson, Rayburn, Marshall is better than a rotation of Simon, Hollis, Patterson, Rayburn.

that's because Marshall has played the past 2 games. they let Simon go and they depleted their dline depth. so, when Walker did get hurt, they had to play Marshall instead of having Rayburn or Patterson be the guy to get more playing time because of the injury.

i answered your original post...."no, it wasnt better"

i am saying that Darwin Walker is better than simon was. to jim johnson having a 4 man rotation of Hollis Thomas, Darwin Walker, Mike Patterson, Sam Rayburn was as good if not better than last year, and it was convincing enough to them to let Simon go. unless Corey Simon took a bite out of Walker's leg, it's a completely irrelevant point to bring up walkers injury.

it's irrelevant that they have to play a guy from the practice squad in the dline rotation if ONE more guy get's hurt?

what team in the NFL that plays a 4-3 defense is 6 deep at DT?

SunMo · October 12, 2005, 05:21:48 PM

who's talking 6 deep?

i'm saying Walker, Simon, Hollis, Patterson (Rayburn) is better than

Walker, Hollis, Patterson, Rayburn (Marshall)

it's about the 4 man rotation, they had a decent one, gambled because they thought they were going to be good enough, and that isn't proving true so far.

before walker was hurt....they were.

SunMo · October 12, 2005, 05:24:34 PM

they were what?

Wingspan · October 12, 2005, 05:26:56 PM

good enough. (and even better in my opinion)
