Going to be weird not having a player name to chant. Moose, Hoover, Stewart, Luke, it’s like we’ve had one every season for the past 20 years.

We can just chant Bridge! Bridge! Everytime our glorious QB scores?

Pretty entertaining, seeing people call an impact player, over rated and average.

Nah-he needs to stay at OLB.  Whitehead will be the MLB

That is what I said--an above ave OLB, an ave to below average MLB (If I read your response as intended).  Same page.

 I like Shaq but I haven't seen his value in his current contract. Regardless, this year is his to take that next step if he is able. Last year was hard to evaluate on D with the pooshow so I will wait to see what he can do with better DT in front of him. Hopefully the coaches can put him into a spot to thrive.

Shaq has never been anything more than average in his career.  I doubt that changes this season.

hes played out of position his whole career.  hes a 4-3 MLB and will shine.

If Bobby Wagner is a 10, shaq is a solid 7. About 5-6 games last year, he out played Luke. I mean imagine this team without Shaq.... I bet the team would have Passed on brown to fill the void at LB. I heard one great thing about Shaq- he is not lazy and puts in weight room time.

There lies the problem w Shaq....w Luke having a down yr he could not step up...our defense was dismal...especially our run defense...Shaq is out of position almost every play

id give Shaq a solid 5...for average...he is not a playmaker 

While the D was a joke(especially RUN D), Luke was still a 9. I think youre just a tad too hard on Shaq. Its very very hard to put up numbers next to Luke for your whole career. Agree on Shaq being out of positions at times. There are simply very few who can guard slot WRs, biltz, and play the run well. He has very rare skills and still only 25 years old.
