i didnt know what to expect from him. I didnt even know if he wanted to play football again. But, Ro has been a bright spot on that D. I hope to see Ro and Lee together nxt year.

I wanted to see a defensive player step up in hostile conditions late in year and tonight we saw that player. McClain has the stones to be a leader on this defense. I am excited about LB core for next year. Imagine the toughness with Lee, McClain and Hitchens on field at same time. If we could just add a edge pass rusher this team would be really difficult to stop.

If we can't stop the forward pass we're doomed.

105.3 just said they heard that Rolando is going to get his money next year and go to the highest bidder and he doesn't care what team it is. He has shown what he can do, he knows he's a top ten pick and he's going to get his. My question is how do they know this when RoMc never talks?

Just on the Fan, they heard he is looking for most money for next year. They don't think we'll be able to sign him next year.

I hope Jerry is able to keep him, I like Lee but he can't stay on the field and they need someone tough to man up in the middle.

I would let both Carter and Spencer walk, I think those resources should go to Ro McClain. He is a difference maker, and we need him. We also will need to draft another LB'er. Lee, McClain, Hitchens/Durrant. We will still need another Lb'er or 2 for depth.

If you meant more money then that is no big deal. He isn't being paid squat right now. $700k show-me deal. Well he has shown. He reminds me a lot of Jeremiah Trotter of Eagles fame.

its funny you said that because I thought same thing when I first saw him hitting. I hate to over-pay on him but I think he is must sign.

Rolondo is a guy you build around. There's clearly a difference between when he's on the field and when he's not. In the NFL with the salary cap, you can only sign a few pieces to build around. He's one of them.

He is just a boss. Everyone he hits goes backwards. Including linemen.

On that last pass attempt to their TE Donnell (#84) his "jam" rocked him so hard it was an incomplete pass. He needs to teach that technique to Brandon Carr.
:laugh:

Not buying what 105.3 is saying unless there is video and audio of him saying those words. From all that I read, he loves it here. I fully expect JJ to do whatever it takes to re-sign him.

Unless the staff has some doubts on his mental state with another lump sum of cash, he's worth re-signing to a good sized deal.

Lee moves to WLB and his contract forces us to keep him around for another year. Could be a deadly duo.

On the show, they said he will go to the highest bidder. No matter who and that he may get too expensive.
