we havnt found a decent replacement yet
honestly, i am still ticked at belicick for letting willie go. his fire, his passion, his ability to stuff the colts lol., etc. we need some leadership on our D right now, and i think willie would be our defensive captain.
have you seen willie play last 2 yrs ? one game and suddenly he is the missing link for the pats ?

i said nothing about his play. i said he'd be a good leader. and i never said he'd be "the missing link" - that's peyton.
where's bruschi and vrabel? they are the ones that are supposed to step up as leaders.
his fire, his passion
I had a dream Saturday night that he came back. Then I noticed Drew was back, and so was Max Lane. That's when I realized I was still sleeping.
Yeah I hope Pats fans watched this game and chilled the F out about our team. The Giants, the most unstoppable force known to man, were crushed on national television by a BAD team trying to save its season. Oh, and their starting QB was playing too.
This is the NFL. Bad weeks happen. Now let's move on and beat Denver
max lane? thats more like a nightmare
Although Max Lane wasn't much worse than Nick Kaczur.
bruschi was never really a leader, just a guy that talked a lot to the media, if you ask ppl close to the team they will tell you willie was the biggest leader of the defense by far
as for his play (and let me preface this by saying I am the single biggest willie fan around) it has declined big time since he left here. as much as I hated to see him go, for the money he wanted we made the right decision. however, you guys are correct in the fact that we miss him. we need a YOUNG willie mcginest. a guy that you don't have to scheme to get after the qb. a guy that can hold the edge, completely control his blocker, and go one on one with any tackle and get in the qb's face. willie didn't always necessarily get the sack, but as you saw tonight he's been known to force plenty of ints. so many cross my mind right now, ty law's diving int of quincy carter in the battle of the bills part 1 for some reason just came to mind.

You can't lead a team from the bench, or the trainer's room, in the NFL. It just doesn't work. McGinest's days as a team leader are over.
