I am growing tired of the O-Gun situation / Plaxico
A few weeks ago, I was 100% set on resigning O-gun. I thought he was more important than chambers.....as I posted on this board. As the days and weeks have past, I have changed my mind. He is a good, young, DE without question. However, JT has made a lot of "good" DE's look like, and become, all-stars. With JT, T-Bo, and Big Nasty Larry Ches(Ches)Chester......we can plug any decent DE in there and have good results, we have done it in the past. Its time for a change. With all of these happenings around the team....it is surely time for a shake-up. As great as the D is, even the Surtains, J-Tay's, and Zacks of the world.....they all have to be doubting our chances of a serious run this year. We can't have doubt in our defense. With all reports from camp, we are going to have the best defense in NFL history to carry this offense into the post-season. We have to trade O-gun.
If we don't make a move on the O-Side of the ball (and Im NOT talking about a move such as signing freeman) we are not going to compete for the superbowl, simple as that. Our D is good, but not that good. It has the tendency to wear down anyway.....and with the burdon of knowing they have to hold the opposition to about 14 points a game every single week to have a CHANCE......we don't have just that. We have to trade Ogun for Plaxico Burress. I don't see how anyone can argue this point. I have heard it on these boards, and it is no secret Plaxico wants out of Pitt. He is probably better than Chris.....if not, just as good. Not to mention, more than ANYTHING else.....we need speed. Plaxico has speed, size, and freakish ability. With or without Ogun, our D is not going to be able to carry this offense as it sits now. If we trade of PB.....it will ease the load on D, by giving the passing game a boost, and the running game as well, dis-allowing 8 men in the box. We must make the deal for a truly realistic shot.
