Funny how guys like Brett Favre and Bernie Kosar can join a new team on a moment's notice and be on the field in no time, despite having to digest far more plays than Holland--who's had more than a month to do so. Our guard sounds like he's dumb as dirt.
That's kind of the implication.

I think this coaching staff is just risk averse by nature and would rather go with the devil they know. Has any player in the last two years been benched for underperformance? They went 16 games before they grew enough courage to start MB3 over Julius Jones.

hmmm **** like that is sad if everyone job is safe you won't get better....I like it better when plays are on edge and are fighting for their jobs....

Holland NEEDS to start this week. Procter is a little girl, he will not hit anyone. i sat there last week and watch him let the DT go right across his face. Montrae Holland is the man for that spot.

Holland did play last week. Not sure how much, but I saw him in the game.

Holland is still recovering from the time Princess Leia wrapped that chain around his neck.

Ah yes, Holland playing right next to Gurode: that makes for a combined IQ of what? About 2? :lmao:

I know, I know, low blow, low blow......:(

Flo apparently was playing with 1 arm last week and was acting like a turnstile and still didn't get pulled. How bad could Free or McQ have played? I really don't understand some of the things this coaching staff does or doesn't do.... Maybe when they cart Romo off on a stretcher, something will change with Proctor....

Yeah. A guy by the name of Drew Bledsoe. The name of his replacement escapes me atm.

The coaches can't be that dumb can they? Either Holland just isn't as good as Proctor (Probably the Case) or he is struggling with the playbook.

Yeah, he played one 5-play series.

All the runs went away from his side. We tried pulling him once, and he looked like a statue.

I think I've posted this four times now.

How hard can the playbook be? See the guy in front of you. Hit him as hard as you can. Repeat.

Seriuosly, it can't be the playbook. Maybe the guy just isn't that good.

And I don't think Proctor has been bad.

Or lazy. Maybe he just isn't putting in the time studying. Maybe he leaves practice and goes to his home, turns on Judge Judy, and falls asleep.


And has about a dozen Whoppers!

I never once viewed Holland as anything more then depth this year. He may NEVER be more then that honestly. But the way we have drafted OL..... for what we gave up thats not a bad trade for solid depth. We had what like 3 all pro's last year on the OL? We need a couple solid not great guys to fill that line out. We should be OK if Kosier can just get back on the field or Proctor improves a bit if everyone can get healthy.
