Lardarius Webb

This guy has to start. Better a rookie play like a rookie than a 5 year vet play like a rookie. He is small but plays big. He's physical, which is something we haven't seen from anyone of your corners. Right now he's proven that he deserves more of a workload, and we ought to give it to him. This guy has to start immediately. There is no downside, considering how bad Fabian has played.

The opinions posted here are those of the administrator of this blog and his loyal readers. They are in no way official comments from the team, and should not be misconstued as such, even though he thinks he could do just as well or even a better job!

I agree

He is about a half inch shorter than Fabian and Foxworth and a FAR better 1 on 1 tackler. He made tackles against the Bengals that we have not seen this secondary make once throughout the whole season. He should start. But you know once Frank Walker comes back, it will all go back to normal.

You have to hate losing more than you love winning.

What?

Webb has looked better in the past weeks than Fabian has. Why not let him get the start? We are desperate for anything at this point. Fabian has said it himself that he has played poorly and deserved to get benched when he did in some games. Webb has shown me he is the best tackler in our secondary after only one game. I have yet to see the tackles made by Webb last Sunday made by anyone else in our secondary, even the great Ed Reed.

And the Walker thing, you know it is true. The coaches see something in him that we do not, yet even after he commits two Pass Interference penalties that give up a total of 80 yards, they STILL put him in.

You have to hate losing more than you love winning.

Perhaps starting him at nickel right now

but with the Colts and steelers coming up, perhaps I’d rather not let him get burned s bad in his beginning of his career.

I would start him...vs.

The worse pass offense in the league. They are ranked 32nd in passing. This is the game that you want to start your rookie.

The colts game will be a good test. Lardarius is not short of confidence, he knows what he’s doing, and he has a swagger to him. If he gets made into toast, then oh well, you learn from it, you move on. Fabian is much more fragile than Lardarius, its kinda sad.

With Washington still hurt

and even Chris Carr limping, it looks pretty good for Webb getting decent playing time, including a possible start.

For that matter, I’d sit Ngata another game to make sure he’s fully healed for the Colts and Steelers as well.

Great point

Sitting Ngata doesn’t sound like a bad idea.

You could change the jerseys on all of our DB’s and wouldn’t be able to tell the difference. We are going to get slaughtered by Manning and Ben. Totally destroyed. Our only hope is to run the ball and kill the clock. Thanks Ozzie for correcting this obvious need.

Is Ozzie really that good when we get close to winning and he can’t add the 1 or 2 pieces that would put us over the top. Free agency is a bad word along with trade and acquisition.

if smarie rolle announced his retirement

they could go after corey ivy as a cb you just never know what they may sign this week

Get Rolle out of here already. Man. He’s hurting his teammates with the on again off again crap. We need continuity. Corey Ivy should have been retained anyway. He wasn’t that expensive and we are/were hurting in the backfield. It seems that Ozzie, mistakenly, placed a ton of weight on Rolles return.
