Still think his production is "overrated" (by Bill Belichick, among others)? Hope we can all continue to appreciate the vast clutchness and the outrageous production we get from him, generally, and on a per-play basis.

What the hell, there was really a Cut Faulk crowd? What the hell?
Someone did post about the possibility of Faulk being cut. I think around the time he got busted wit the pot possession.
Don't remember who, but I certainly remember seeing what the TC did.
The pot thing has nothing to do with his football ability.
The OP of this thread asks "Still think his production is "overrated" (by Bill Belichick, among others)?".
Ah, read over the original post again.
Yeah don't remember anyone requesting Faulk be cut based on his play alone.
Three or four years ago, when he was fumbling left and right, many including myself thought he would get cut.What the hell, there was really a Cut Faulk crowd? What the hell?
There was a good number of people who thought Faulk should have gotten cut over the past few preseasons.
I for one thought there was a possibility that Faulk would get cut.
He is a non-starter in an incredibly deep back field
He was suspended for the 1st game
He is one of the older players on the team demanding a sizeable salary
Lamont is also a RB that can catch out of the backfield
We seem to be deep in punt returners (Welker, Hobbs, Slater)
With all that said I like Faulk and I am glad he didn't get cut. No one really needs to enlighten me on his strengths (great hands, awareness, quickness). but, to imply cutting him should have been beyond discussion is wrong. Faulk played a great game this Sunday and I hope we see games like this again from him. I do NOT think he will have a greater game this season because of his role on the team. Faulk will have some solid punt returns and about 2 third down conversions a game. He is a SOLID role player on the team. He is not the best RB.
