Actually D Hall has turned into a solid tackler since signing with the Redskins. He's matured over the past couple seasons and is one of the better cornerbacks in football and a great team guy now. But everybody and their mom knows that Romo's ribs are fair game. Thats football.

Someone hasn't been paying attention. Outside of one game he's been getting toasted by RBs breaking free and WRs.

(Unless i totally missed the sarcasm)

Telling everyone ahead of time that he plans to target Tony Romo's injured ribs... :nonod:

Worth noting this comes from a guy who was juked/stiffarmed by Jake Delhomme. He's not exactly a Steve Atwater level hitter.

Do you hear his comments or just read them? I have no problem with what he said after actually listening to it. Blown out of propotion like most non stories.

Going after a player with a weakness? Yeah, that's part of the game.

Blabbing about it ahead of time is tantamount to saying, "hey ref, go ahead and have your flag throwing hand ready", especially when it's directed at a high profile player (say, the quarterback of the Dallas Cowboys, for example).

While he's at it, he may as well have a blank check written out to Roger Goodell ready for mailing.

You honestly think it's not? You think a CB with a known issue wouldn't be targeted over and over? It's one thing trying to intentionally injured someone but injured players get targeted as a weakness all the time.

I said it was, and I believe it is.

What's stupid is to telegraph it ahead of time (for reasons listed above).

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ImfromClayton · Posted

      We won't know the answer to this for a long time. Reality is, Caleb has been the consensus #1 in that draft for years. Bryce was a similar situation, but mostly the same. He was not the clear and obvious #1 that Caleb was, but most teams had Bryce at QB1. The Panthers were always going to be terrible Bryce's rookie year.  I don't think DJ Moore's presence would have changed anything about that offense, as our guards, center, and left tackle were getting demolished on nearly every snap. It's clear Caleb's dad was trying to do everything possible to ensure Caleb didn't end up in Chicago with Eberflus. It's hard to imagine that he wouldn't have done the same, but probably more publicly with our situation, considering Carolina is an easier target for the media than Chicago. We can all speculate, but it's impossible to tell who is going to have the better career on May 16, 2025. If either QB doesn't pan out, we have an easy answer. If both flame out, the bears clearly won the trade, but it wouldn't have really mattered anyway. We all know how we win the trade. Candidly, even if one of the other picks we gave up ends up being a hall of fame player, we don't know if the panthers would have taken that player anyway. All you can do is make the best decision you can in the moment with the information you have. I really like Bryce Young, and I'm glad he's a Carolina Panther.  The only way to win in the modern NFL is to have an absolute dude at QB. I personally am happy that our franchise recognizes this, as I remember times when they did not.

      This year, there's been enough positive talk from core players, free agents, and coaches to where I believe the culture building and momentum is more important than fighting for a worse record.
