Exactly.

I think the center play was as much a factor of the pathetic play at guard which was partially caused by the ineffective play at tackle.

God almighty, it was Johnsons second full year as a starter. And he wasn't as horrible as many have claimed.

The center position wasn't the POS that many seem to think it was. Hell, Y. Rich ran the numbers. Johnson had too many penalties but the other numbers weren't horrid.

As disfunctional as our line was is it pretty amazing we almost made the playoffs. I believe in the Michael Jordan theory that better players around you can make you a better player. Maybe that is what Johnson needs.

Yes, SIRIUS NFL radio confirmed it thru his agent.

Wow, this is incredible news. At first I admit I thought this was wishful thinking, but man...great news.

 

[CrazyCowboy]

IMO Bentley was asking for more then we had allocated for the position

I don't think any center could ever outperform $17 MM guaranteed over 3 years.

Didn't you get the memo. The CBA raised the salary cap by 19%. That is equal to a $13.6 mil over 3 years. Just imagine if you got a 19% raise. That would be nice.

trust me.

Browns | Bentley on way to Cleveland
Sat, 11 Mar 2006 09:14:55 -0800

610 WIP Sports Radio in Philadelphia reports free agent C LeCharles Bentley (Saints) is on his way to Cleveland to visit the Cleveland Browns. It was earlier reported that Bentley had already agreed to a deal with the Philadelphia Eagles and there was a rumor that he was going to visit the Eagles on Saturday, March 11.



So is it done or could he be going to sign on the dotted line?

If this is true, I just may dust off my old Jackie Gleason impression:

How SWEEEEET it is!!

I really didn't want to see Bentley in an Iggles uni...

FWIW, I just tried to follow the link provided, and got a "bandwidth exceeded" error box... sounds like they're in full meltdown mode over there, and I LOVE it...

HAHA Eagles got robbed. It didn't look like we really had much interest on Bentley so at least he didn't go to a rival

 

[bigdrulez3141]

YAAAAAAAYYYYY! better them than the eagles.

Wow and I thought he was a lock in Phlithy, I suppose Mawae just became an after thought for Dallas.


DARN!!!

On the other hand, maybe this frees up McGinest from the Browns?

cheers from the stands!!
too bad philthy, thank you Brownies.

 

[StonetheCrow77]

that's my thought... if he isn't signing with Dallas, make it an AFC team...
