Anyone worried about the DTs?

[Leeroy Jenkins PhD]

I seem to remember Hollis Thomas a few years ago coming off a serious injury and was 35 at the time. He came in and was solid for us in 2009. Again last year off was likely good to help him heal up totally and recuperate from all the wear and tear over the years. I expect him to be very solid.

Just sayin......................

I always think its interesting how fans find one example of something that worked and all of a sudden its a given rule.

Well, lets just bring in ALL THE 35 YEAR OLD DTS!!!! APPEARANTLY IT WORKS EVERY TIME.

See that is just silly.

I just don't care. Edwards is going to be rock solid, and Kearse is going to be a beast. Fua and Mcclain won't get much playing time because they both suck and it's obvious that Rivera thinks they suck also. I am hoping Nate Chandler will be solid piece and maybe Neblett will be good when he gets back

I'm worried about everyone

You mean like fans who say that just because he is 33 then that is a concern regardless of how he plays or what shape he is in. I showed you how age at nose tackle as recently as 2009 wasn't an issue. At least I can point out an example where age isn't a concern.

Concern for no reason is just silly.

Yeah this always happens 9 times out of 10. Nothing to worry bout at all.

What's with all the anxiety and preseason hasn't even started. How about saving the anxiety attacks and heart palpitations for when it is justified. I can't believe all the whining.

For what it is worth, an excellent way to combat anxiety is to find instances in your experience where there are exceptions to the anxiety provoking thought. Obviously wasted on you though............

No anxiety at all. I've come to accept our D will suck. Why am I here? I don't know maybe I like the team. I dont need a Superbowl chase every year to enjoy following the team.

I think you are going to be wrong about the defense. I think we are going to be much improved. If that doesn't prove to be true there will be plenty of time to get depressed and join you and others. Way too early for the "sky is falling" proclamations.

[rayzor]

defense is going to make the same turnaround the offense did last year.

Is it a given rule that you can't play football past the age of 32!? He gave you an example of someone who was two years older, who played well. It didn't mean that all mid 30s guys are going to play at a high level, just that you shouldn't knock the man just because of his age.

Its silly, to act as if you know,that Edwards can't play just because he's 33.

[FirstRoundPick]

Sorry, I don't see it as a "sky is falling proclamation". Just a realistic preseason look at what we have on the roster. Anything can happen, but that doesnt mean that I buy lottery tickets just cause i could win. Football isn't the rocket science the league wants you to think it is. You get good at certain positions and there will be results. We got good at QB and TE and cutback the running game and then we had a good offence. You have to get good at certain positions and leave the solid 35 year olds for other positions.
