Anyone see what Trent Green did after he threw an INT yesterday? Wonder if Bledsoe...

would have done it. Never mind, I think we saw a similar situation in the Cowboys-Denver game.

Trent Green threw an INT, #27 of Denver picked it off and was going for a TD with two or three Denver defensive players to block for him. Green raced back, fought off a bigger Denver defensive player, and wrestled #27 down and out of bounds. That saved Kansas City 4 points, a FG was all that resulted from the INT. 4 points was the margin of victory.

Bledsoe is very sluggish, almost sleep walking it seems. Wasn't Troy Aikman about Bledsoe's age when he retired. I don't think even he was so slow. Brunnel, who's older than Bledsoe, appears to be more sprightly on his feet.

And to think that Aikman was forced out. He was cut...not retired by Jerry Jones.

Quite a switch in Jerry's thinking about age, huh?

Having said that, I don't blame Jerry for any of the problems on this team....It's all on BP.

Its nice that Green was able to do that but if youremember when the Rams played the Colts on Monday night this year, the Rams were leading but Bulger threw a pick and tried to get in on the tackle. The colts crushed him on the return and Bulger missed several games.

I truly appreciate Aikman, but he was definitely done when he retired...his last couple of years were horrible...he had no mobility, no reaction time, and he had a poor whipped attitude when the OL couldn't protect him. It would have been a huge mistake to keep him, imo.

Unfortunately, the moves we made to replace him were also horrible.

Aikman didn't get cut and he didn't retire cuz of his age. Age didn't have a darn thing to do with it.
