I've never been a big fan of Asante and was never really in support of bringing him in.  However, it's hard to argue with how much of a difference he makes when he's on the field. The defense is better with him out there.  I'm still not a fan, but I'll definitely take him over the slop that's been out there the last 2 weeks.

is it normal for you not to be a fan of players that make the team better?
I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

Sgt PSN

I don't care for his overall game.  Other than interceptions, he doesn't bring a lot to the table.

thats like saying other than sacks, reggie white brought nothing to the table
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

Yeah, when he's not intercepting the ball, you always see him getting torched.

(Actually, this is not true either.  Sarge is dumb.)

if Reggie did nothing but sack qbs, you'd be right

but of course he was a complete player so NO

It is the coach's job to use his players to their strength. Last year, McDermot insisted on playing Samuel in press coverage a lot. That is not his strong suit. He is a great off corner.

He's not a very physical player, which is something that I'll never fully look beyond when it comes to football players. Too many times I see him whiff on a tackle that allows the ball carrier to get a first down and sometimes he blatantly avoids contact.  He's a good player and a playmaker (in fact, I said a couple of weeks ago that he's the only legit playmaker on this defense), I'm just not a big fan.

I farging hate playmakers who lead the nfl in interceptions.

Sgt PSN

I don't hate him.  I don't want him gone either.  But he's probably my least favorite player on the team....at least as far as starters go.

You find Asante less likable than Fokou or Mikell? No one said anything about most hated.


Let's have a long conversation about your definition of likable.
