Cut Jarrett...

T.J. Houshmandzadeh-WR- Seahawks Sep. 5 - 4:02 pm et

Coach Brad Childress confirmed Sunday that the Vikings have no intentions of signing free agent T.J. Houshmandzadeh at this time.

Minnesota is believed to be Houshmandzadeh's landing spot of choice, but the team isn't going to bring him in before Week 1, if they do at all. Housh needs to start seriously considering Washington. If he signed with the Skins today, he could probably enter the starting lineup before Sunday's opener.

I am not one of those on the "we need to bring in a wr" fans. I figured all along with the not bringing in a vet, no trade or attempt for Boldin, etc the Panthers were going with what they have and I understood that for whatever it was worth. BUT with TJ it is an intriguing though. I dont think he will come here nor will the Panthers pursue him. I also dont know much about what kind of locker room guy or vet he would be here. That being said........ I do not think I would be opposed or upset if the Panthers did bring him in and cut Jarrett. If they did that, I would trust Fox and Hurney's judgement. A WR core with Smith, TJ and the three younge guys does seam much better then A WR core with Smith, Jarrett and the three younge guys.

This is one I would like to see the Panthers consider pursuing and see if they can bring him in..... assuming of course he would be an upgrade over Jarrett.

and you know what? If we did, I wouldn't be upset, because I love this team. whatever they do I'll roll with it, until I see its not going to work. But the constant TJ threads, bashing the FO for not signing him, or another vet, its just plain ridiculous. we are averaging 2-3 TJ threads a day. its obsessive and excessive.

    • No, you're right. It doesn't mean you can't call out his flaws and poor play. But it also doesn't mean you can't admit when he plays well and shows improvement. Not you personally, just in general I mean.
    • I will say, I do think there's a version of Bryce that could be really successful as a high-volume passer in a spread-based offense built around quick throws and timing-based intermediate throws with deeper throws schemed up around them. I actually think the power run based offense we're running is a poor fit for Bryce as it requires him to play under center far more often. It's a very traditional offensive approach whereas I think a scheme that spreads defenses out and lets Bryce distribute the ball quickly with anticipation and accuracy is the sweet spot for him. The key, of course, is to find a way to run the ball efficiently out of those formations. Our personnel right now (backs and OL) aren't good fits for that style of offense and I'm not sure it's a scheme Dave Canales favors very much either.
    • I root for him, and I hope for the best, as does essentially everyone. But that doesn’t mean you can’t call out flaws and bad plays. And that’s what a lot of people get wrong.  I hope I’m wrong and that he continues to improve a lot, I just doubt it. But I’ve been wrong before
