Default More evidence the preseason doesn't matter all that much
http://www.nj.com/jets/index.ssf/200...ecial_tea.html

Quote:
Notes: In a stunning move, the Jets released veteran RB Jesse Chatman, who rushed for 93 yards and a touchdown on Thursday night against the Eagles and led the team in rushing this preseason with 164 yards and a touchdown on 51 carries, according to someone with knowledge of the cuts. That person spoke on the condition of anonymity because the cuts aren't officially announced until Saturday.
Let's see how many more preseason HOF's will be released this weekend.

164 yards on 51 carries is 3.2 a carry. Hardly "preseason HOF" average.

Also, carrying the ball is ONE of a RB's assignments. Maybe he sucked in the passing game, or in picking up the blitz. This means nothing.

I don't think the preseason means much, and strawman arguments like this make me look bad for thinking that

Ok, maybe I was reaching a bit there.

'sokay. We all have our moments..... Mine, thankfully, haven't been on this board, but yeah, I have had my share lately. I have actually had more than my share if you were to listen to my wife tell it... sigh.

I'm trying to be like Mike Lombardi, make outrageous comments that make no sense.

No, I mean Lombardi: Lombardi thinks Bruschi will be cut

Kirwan was called an idiot, I my friend am no idiot. I am say some outrageous things but I haven't been called an idiot, yet.
