He said they would bring up Alonzo Coleman from the practice squad. They really like what he did in camp and has done since.

Also said he was the fastest RB on the squad and makes people miss. Quote "miss'em". He has miss'em!

I thought Felix was the fastest RB. Norm didn't ask anymore about it. Jerry said no Vet will be brought in.

I would guess that means goodbye Courtney Brown. I'd rather see this Battle guy play anyway.

How about Brad Johnson or Quincy Butler? Courtney Brown was a low round draft pick. They take time to develop.

If they can get someone to hold PATs then I'm for it. I still don't know if the coaching staff is ready to unload Brad. I would like to see Brown get another TC. He may still develop. But I wouldn't cry about it either.

BTW, Felix Jones' big ability is to get to the corner fast and turn it at full speed. I don't remember seeing anyone who could turn the corner as well as he does. Even TC got to the corner pretty fast last night. But he still had to turn it upfield and for him and others it takes a move you can see. You don't see a separate move by Felix.

Enter Alonzo Coleman exit Courtney Brown sounds like an upgrade to me. Coleman likely won't see any snaps BTW. Just like we didn't see Choice when MBIII and Felix were 1-2.

Why not exit Pat Watkins instead? Better yet, let's get rid of Brown and Watkins.

If we can find another FS to replace him, sure.

It would have been nice to have Abram Elam on the team right now.


10X better player then either Watkins or Brown, but OH NO he's not fast so he got cut.

I'd rather have Elam and Oglesby over Watkins and Brown.

call me ignorant, but what happened to K. Lattimore?

I don't think he's on anyone's 53 man roster. Not sure if he's on anyone's practice squad.

I agree, really hated to see us lose Elam.

does this mean Barber won't be ready to go against Pittsburgh?

Look at those guns....

I feel a man crush coming on....

Also, being faster than Felix means something. I am sure he doesn't have the acceleration, but he can make people miss, according to sources that I have been reading on. I hope he is able to show something positive.

Is that Coleman?

I'm with you on Watkins but not Brown. Watkins is a major injury waiting to happen because of the way he tries to tackle. Parcells called it..
