i agree with you man.
most of the people on this site are just nutt cases who posses some sort of weird hate for every player on this team. Whenever they get cut or "suck" everyone rejoices, but when they do well they are "mediocre" or "scrubs on any other team" etc. Its always should we cut this guy - what can we trade this guy for? who is going to be on the block? etc.
I agree - i think philbin is trying to be BB from New England before he has won anything - just like Tony did. Restrict the crap out of guys - cant even curse and have fun at a press conference. sounds like a "no fun" type team which is the same thing that lead to the 0-7 start last year under Tony.
the morale of the team will be hurt by this i am pretty sure and now we have no wide recievers. Trading Brandon was the first mistake - this the second.
as much as i liked philbin at first - i dont know - he did not look comfortable with the players walking in to the QB room etc in hard knocks either. He seems stiff and old fashioned. the players dont seem to love him that much - we will soon see - if it translates to wins then he will eventually get respect - but if not, he will just be another failed disciplinarian type coach.
we already have our better corner sitting on the sidelines while sean smith misses tackles due to "intangibles" Not too happy right now.
