Wow. We better beat this wounded duck of a team on sunday night.

Not in 2012. This leads me to believe Reid won't be fired

He'll land somewhere as a 3rd down pass rusher.

There are also rumblings that he's a bad locker room guy.
Yeah, this was the vibe I was getting from watching things too.

Seemed like he was doing his own thing out there and couldn't be bothered about anything other than getting 'his sacks'.

And if they're serious about sending a message, I'd dump that grossly overpaid cornerback who doesn't care too.

Don't be surprised if Nnamdi is playing somewhere else next year too. I'm no cap expert but if it's at all doable, they may go that route.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.

I've read that they could actually save about $1 million on his deal if they deactivated him this year.

Something about his guarantees being tied to the percentage of snaps he played this year.

I would think that cutting him would put a real damper on that.

And honestly, there's not a player on the team that epitomizes the underachieving and lackadaisical attitude more than him.

So true, and the irony of that is delicious to me given the fallout here when he ditched us.

$2 million to claim Babin. Who has and who would want to spend it non someone that has way underperformed this year?

I have to admit I rued.

But I do think that we would have been much improved with Nnamdi last year in Ryan's defense over Terrance Newman.

May have meant that one game's difference between playoffs and no playoffs.
