Active Roster
This board is going nuts today. Yes we did get embarrassed and our season is over, but we all need to just relax. I suggest we all listen to Aqueous Transmission by Incubus to calm our spirits.:D
Now, I just want to say that these threads talking about cutting half of the team needs to stop. We are almost there, there is no need to just go out and cut half the roster and start over. There are some players who are under performing, we can all agree on that. But we need to look at players who are CAUSING the problems. Guys like Chambers, Booker and McMike may not be helping so much, but do you really think they are the sole reason for the losses? We've seen what each of these guys can do when put in position to make plays. The simply fact is that Harrington is putting them in that position. The cause of our problem is QB and OL. If we can get some better protection and get Daunte healthy, the rest of the offense will rise collectivley. This team will be fine, the pieces are there and we just need a few parts to be a championship team.
Now, first, lets talk about Chambers. He's not going any where guys. He's our best receiver and to get rid of him would just be done. There won't be a better WR than him on the market and getting rid of him just makes us worse. We need to fix the source, that being the QB, which will be done by Daunte.
You Harrington lovers need to realize Joey is done. He may be here next year, but has no shot at competing for the starter position. He would be a find backup to fill in for mayb a game or 2 but there is no way he can take any team to the playoffs.
What tight end will we find that's better than McMike? Maybe we could draft one but just dropping McMike and signing a new one will do now good. He's still a great athelete and can still make plays.
Booker is also staying here. He's been a pretty good target underneath and is a perfect compliment to Chambers.
Why do we want to get rid of some of our best players? The problem isn't the receivers and that was proven today by the way Joey played. Lets use a baseball comparison here. Lets say my team catches and throws it better than anyone, what good does it do when the pitchers can't keep the opposition in the park?
We need to rid the players who are causing the problems, not ones that just aren't helping them. These players include Harrington, McIntosh, James and Barnes on the offense. Mare also needs.
Guys like Chambers, Booker and McMichael aren't producing as an effect from the source. Why get rid of these guys when they aren't the cause of the problem? They may not be doing enough to fix it, but sometimes there is no fix to such poor quarterbacking.
This is a process guys. We all knew this season was toast from the 1-6 start. We are lucky the team was able to rebound and get back to respectability. But how can you say you don't see improvement in this club. The defense has some AWESOME vets and promising looking youngsters. The offense is just a few pieces away. Guys, chill out, we will get there.
