I kind of feel bad for him seeing as he did make one play as opposed to Carroll who cant even play the nickel....

 

He did get roasted pretty badly, but I didn't know he'd be gone.

 

Will Allen coming in? Please don't tell me we're going to pick up someone from the practice squad or something...

Allen knows the defense.

 

To quote Will Allen when Bonamego was fired:

"..BOOM..."

 

Welcome back Will Allen :shifty:

 

Problem solved.

 

I dunno..I didn't care much for how he played last year. I kept hearing reports of how solid he was in camp and all I could think was "really"...

Sure would've been nice to see them give Sam Shields an actual shot with us last season...if ifs and buts were candy and nuts...

 

Sparano must not have liked that he could not score from the 1/2 yard line I guess...

 

Not surprising at all.

 

that was fast. is someone going to get fired every time we play them?!

 

Our whole secondary got roasted. Sapp at least caused a TO. Honestly Carrol should have gotten cut.

 

*runs to try out for the dolphins*

 

Hey guess what, Sapp gets to keep his $1.9 Million! Ireland made a sound investment.

 

Do we have a pattern forming? This is the second time we've played the Pats and someone gets fired the next day.

 

Definitely, surprised Soliai wasn't cut as well.

 

When your nickel corner is so bad that you have to flat out cut him after week bloody one, it says a lot more about your FO/staff than it does about your nickel corner. If he's truly that bad, he shouldn't have been the nickel to begin with.

 

Jimmy Williams on the rise?

 

Sorry that was me being a smartazz ...

 

tou effin che ...

 

You guys are all clinical. Last night this entire board was ready to kill Benny Sapp dead, and now that the front office has actually done something about it, they are to blame and Poor Benny Sapp?

He was terrible. He deserved to lose his job. I applaud the front office for recognizing a failing player early and severing ties.

 

They had to make someone the scapegoat. I bet Will Allen returns.

 

They would still owe him the entire 12 mil ;)

 

Understand your point , some of it is placing the blame on the front office for counting on the player?

 

He allowed 169 yards and two TDs all by himself. Objectively the worst. Far more than Carroll, who allowed "only" 103 yards and one TD.

 

Was that Sapp who was laying on the ground watching Welker running away? That was pretty bad, who ever that was could have at least gotten up and showed some attempt to get up and get back in the play. I know, I know, he could never have caught up to Welker but at least he could have gotten up rather than look like he is a spectator watching Welker score.

 

LOL, he was the only dude to make a big play on our whole team...Granted, it was because he was gambling a lot. 99 yards and a ***** ain't one.

 

Wish we cojld get camarillo back now too.

 

Did he play pretty bad? Yeah. But he was also placed in a spot he had no business being in - thanks in no small part to the "best corner tandem" in the league cramping to the bench - and he was the one guy in the secondary who actually came up with something like a big play. Yeah, he got schooled badly on that Welker touchdown, but heck, if you really expect Benny Sapp (or Nolan Carroll, for that matter) to cover Wes Welker, then the problem's not Sapp's, it's whoever had the bright idea to think he could do it.

 

To help the players stay hydrated?

 

No doubt. NFL Network just showed his coverage on the two Welker TDs and he had no leverage whatsoever. Pitch and catch football. Sapp gave Welker a 5 yard cushion on both plays with a 6 man rush. Jones was equally responsible on the 99 yarder because he went for the pick, but he isn't a 7 year vet.

 

He wouldn't make the team.

 

At least Sapp didn't have to sit on the sideline. There's no denying he was bad, but blaming the poor sods who actually hung in there to finish the game instead of limping to the bench is just cheap.

 

Dont worry, I caught the sarcasm there and it made me laugh pretty hard. :knucks:

 

I like how everyone solely blames Sapp for Welkers 99 yard TD catch and run but if we had a competent FS maybe that 99 yarder turns into a 30 yard gain.

 

That is hardly the case.
