You beat me.

I had to, you were out of line.

I gotta get me an animated gif I can go around from thread to thread, randomly posting it at the end.

It needs to be about head trauma.

I'll go on a limb and say Atlanta signs him.

They already have one speedy cornerback who cant play corner (rossum) as a return man. Carroll would be like his protege'. Who knows. Being from Atlanta though i'd guess thats where he winds up

 

[Doomsday101]

just some news... werent we interested in him when he was drafted or was that the other guy they got that year?

At one time we may have been interested now? I don't think so the guy has played very poorly this season.

No Doubt!! Why dont the Packers trade this guy?? and get something in return while they can, i mean whats the point of trotting him out there every sunday, all he is doing is futher delaying the future of the Packers, its like when we had Vinny Testaverde.

isnt this like when the cowboys kept trotting emmitt smith out there, week after week, when his legs were shot?favre isnt going anywhere

But also according to Joyner's numbers, Carroll ranked 17th out of the 58 primary starting cornerbacks in success percentage, 23rd in yards allowed per opponent's pass and 12th in target percentage. So he didn't get picked on very much and didn't get beaten often, he just got beaten for some big plays occasionally (seven "deep" completions, according to Joyner). But Joyner also said he allowed only three TD passes.

I just looked at Scientific Football 2006 and your numbers are all off. Carrol was 28th in overall success percentage, and 61st in deep success percentage. He had 27 long passes thrown at him of which 17 were completed. I don't know what you read, but it wasn't the book I have in front of me.
