No, Wayne said he expected to win now. Cam was supposed to win now. Get that straight and stop making the convenient excuse for this team. REBUILDING became the theme only after it was obvious they had no other choice.
If Cameron has done one thing well its his handling of the rookies. He has one trait in common with parcells and thats not believing in the sink or swim phlosophy when it comes to rookies. Either the rookies show they deserve to start or they dont. The only exception he made to thast rule was starting Beck before he was ready and I can guarantee you that was because of Wayne. OK I cant guarantee that but I think we all know he didnt want to start Beck. Booker was put in once he knew his assignments well enough not to be a liability on the field
LoBook had 1 aweful drop, but I do like this kid. Fellas I gotta say, If Ronnie returns healthy, and the ACL heals perfectly, we bring Ricky back(guys a freak athlete, and not a bad apple, just a bit nutty), and with LoBook, I simply LOVE that stable of Runningbacks. I know a lot of people dont like Ricky, but he is such an incredible back and athlete. imagine us being competitive with a good OL, and it being the late 3rd quarter, and ricky and ronnie are fresh due to splitting 30 carries a piece, like Jones/Barber. he has the legs of a 27 yr old. we should carry 4 backs again. Rb, RW LB, and someone else(Jesse, Reggie, someone)
your taking a jab at one of the top three backs in the NFL?? Lobook was awesome and will be a great threat as our own reggie bush maybe better, but don't get it twisted, Ronnie Brown is a great football player.
Ronnie Brown is still our franchise running back. That said, LoBook has demonstrated tremendous value as a slot receiver / third down back. We're getting Reggie Bush production on the cheap - and in the process replacing Welker's production in the slot. I really like what the future holds for this kid.
I am not taking a jab at Ronnie Brown...I am just saying that Lorenzo Booker is faster... and sometimes RB turns what would have been a 10 yard gain into a 2 yard gain by dancing around. Ricky Williams is another guy who spots the opening and runs through it...nothing against RB, he just just has a different technique. I just think Cam didn't have to bring in Samkon Gado when he had LoBook in his stable.
That's complete BS! You don't decide to rebuild halfway through the season! It was pretty obvious when we got rid of our team cancers and got a lot younger as a whole. The fact is, you can't rebuild in one year, so it's not like we were going to see a whole team of 21-24 year olds... You wanna bring in a coach to win now? Okay... we'll win 8 games and miss the playoffs like we always do then... Wayne Huizenga is a moron, I could care less what he expects... He doesn't know anything about the sport of football and he's admitted it before...
man i've been asking myself this same question since he first got to play. that kid has some moves/speed, not to mention hands. he's what I thought Teddy Ginn was going to be. I wouldn't be surprised if he could be a great KR too. But yeah like others have said. This is a primary reason why Cam is a bum.
