Do you have faith in McClain?

Pats and Falcon fans have... not the most encouraging opinions about him. Do you have faith in him to hold down Lockett and Brown? Those damn birds are gonna test him often.

If we dont get a pass rush going it wouldn't matter if we had Peanut back there because the result would still be the same

Yes.  I appreciate Peanut but have been saying all season,  that I wish we could get younger in the secondary. Our coaches seem to be really good at scheming to protect our guys deficiencies on defense.  As long as he is understanding our system,  I think he'll be okay.

I think Finnigan will replace Tillman and McClain will play where Finnigan plaid.

No.  In today's press conf. Ron specifically confirmed (before Peanut's ACL tear was official) that if Tillman was unable to play, it would be Finnegan at Nickel and McClain outside.

Ah.....I Was going to add unless I didn't see some announcement. It seemed like that would be the case.

    • Like many of the old heads, I’ve been here for a long time.  I got a lot of respect for everyone on this board for your dedication to this team.  We’ve all been through it during the tougher years. At this point in life, I’m not one to judge anyone’s level of dedication, or their reasons why anymore.  Time, and a lot of bad football, will do that.  For me, it’s simple.  We share a common bond.  For that, I love and appreciate all of you crazy SOB’s. For me, last season was at a minimum, entertaining.  BY lead a young team to multiple come from behind 4th qtr wins.  That showed me heart, and that he has the clutch gene.  That’s the wildcard intangible.  For me, that was fun to watch even  if it was mindbogglingly frustrating at times.  Over the past two seasons, we have progressively built a better team around him.  On paper, the defense should be better this season.  That’ll help.  Let’s see what he can do as the other guys continue to develop too.  Besides, his contract is cheap for a few more years, and we just made some smart cap decisions during the draft. Let’s see how it shakes out. 
    • Hiring Shula & his Cam save us playbook.
    • I would very much liked to have seen Jake Delhomme's career if Tommy Jone no hurt Jake.  I just know that roster and the leadership were destined to hit paydirt but Jake was never the same after the elbow injury, and unfortunately he was the sole reason they didn't make it back to the big one.  I think that 08 team was the best in the league, and Jake masked his inability well all season til the Arizona game put it all on display.  I'll go back to the season prior even and say the 07 team was primed to be a competitor.  Jake was off to a fantastic start that year (for a Panthers QB).  They may have been a championship caliber club for a few seasons after 08 too.
