Kevin Burnett news...

[keds]

Here's a clip from the San Diego paper that covers the Chargers... this confirms what our coaching staff thought of Burnett that he's not an every down player...


Revolving 'backers

The rotation between inside linebacker Kevin Burnett and Tim Dobbins that apparently wouldn't happen, appears after two games to be a staple.

Burnett was anointed the every-down player after a strong preseason, but a combination of his struggles and Dobbins playing well have changed that.

“I think it's pretty good; I think it helps them,” head coach Norv Turner said of the rotation. “Burnett plays an awful lot on special teams, Dobbins is a physical player. So it's something we'll continue to talk about.”

I think we all know he's a part time player, always was and always will be, the way it looks.

 

[big dog cowboy]

He is who we thought he was.

Yeah, after his 11 tackle game or whatever.

Burnett > Carpenter

Too bad Burnett didn't want to stay in Dallas.

Yeah, after his 11 tackle game or whatever.

But not the two weeks before when he had maybe 5 total.

he didnt want to stay cause he wanted a chance to be an every down player...and he got that chance...and proved he isnt

Burnett left here folks. He left. He had the chance to stay. Dallas wanted to keep him. He walked away to play elsewhere. Let it go.

10 tackles, sack, hurt QB for the season all in one game. and will only get better. We never gave Kev a chance....

 

[Yeagermeister]

And he's not even on the field in crunch time......no shocker.
