Don’t know why people thought he was going to be some kind of game changing player. He has always been a mediocre starting safety. He made the pro bowl as like the 5th alternate when he was a rookie playing behind an amazing front 7. I actually think he’s been fine. Not good but not really bad either.

just a distraction on team with poor coaching and questionable/aging talent...totally offsetting any benefits of being slightly better that what we had...

I’ll give him another couple of weeks, but dude has been bad so far 

Let’s try Gaulden. Safety play can’t get worse. 

yea, distraction affect the WHOLE team, and we already have average (at best) coaching and other talent issues. Team chemistry means more than people give credit for...not to mention smith and reid would love to see cupperpunk here...now, an elite QB has top look over his shoulder...yea, it has an affect...

Lol does no one understand how to evaluate safety play? He’s been decent for the most part and stopped a couple of runs and made a few plays.

Not really standing out and that’s fine for a guy who just got signed off the couch.

Haha dude... you should know better than anyone that 90% of cats around here do not really know football.  Yes, they may have been "cheering since '95", but they have very little understanding of the game, let alone true player evaluations hahaha

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
