Philbin says slaton fits offensive scheme

[kloud_9]

What about Jerome messam...odd man out?

Good I've always thought Stevie was a horse!!!

Anyone think we might just keep Bush Thomas Slaton and Messam? Obviously the other 2 currently on the roster should be cut but will we keep 4 backs?? Also don't we really need a FB for this system? Or maybe we will use Messam at FB and sometimes Clay?

Good point! I could see this happening. It will be a fun training camp battle for sure with these four.

Although, that really depends on keeping them on the field and that is something that none of our backs have displayed the ability to do so far their careers.

hmmmm..... didnt REGGIE BUSH play the whole season?

No, he missed the last game and that was the first time in his career (since his rookie year) that he played that many games. I don't think its up for debate that Reggie is injury prone but, you are right he had a great year for us and with the new zone blocking scheme I am hopeful he will have another great year.

To the gentleman that said we have a very good back field.........dead on! The one area on our team that we have little to worry about. QB, Pass rush, Oline, WR and safety.....whole different story.

MR. Sir Sir, I was being sarcastic. My bad for the confusion. lol

Ahh, the sarcasm was lost on me. Sadly after this deal was closed there were too many posts that pretty much said the exact same thing you were talking about, only they weren't sarcastic.
