    Antonio Cromartie just made AJ a genius all over again.

    1st round draft pick in 2006.

    #19 overall.

    Other GMs were concerned about his knee injury in college and skipping an entire year.

    Not AJ.

        And I was about to start an "Is Cromartie a Bust" thread. :lol:

                Dammit - if PR hadn't overthrown him, my prediction of a 30+ yard TD would have been correct. :icon_sad:

                    In two weeks--maybe next week--that play is a touchdown. Defenses just can't cover everybody.

                        Cromartie's a champ and a half.

                            He's going to be a star.


                            Lots of people have pointed out that our sacks are down but not too many people are talking about the fact that our DB's have already have more interceptions than they did all last year.

                                No, we are saving that for the "Sproles is wasting a roster spot" thread. :lol:

                                    Nope, for that we would just ressurect one of your old ones. :lol:

                                        I think the db play will only continue to improve as well. Bill Bradley FTW

                                            I hope you're right. Especially with regard to Cromartie. If he keeps improving at his current pace he will become exactly what we need to neutralize Moss in the playoffs.

                                                If Jammer is out next week (injury) and Nightengale gets suspended, Cromartie better be good!

                                                    Say what? Jammer is injured?

                                                        Yeah. But no one knows how, or what.

                                                            Drayton won't be suspended. If Jammer is out than Cro and Florence start and Cletis will come in on nickel.

                                                                            We were on cruise control before the 2nd quarter was half over. You should see some of the whine *** threads at Chargers.com, and I imagine there are a bunch at the UT too.

                                                                            We physically beat the crap out of the Texans. On the field, and on the scoreboard.

Same as the stupid **** he pulled in the NE palyoff game. Someone needs to take him aside and straighten his **** out. He can't make that kind of mistake in a close game.

                                                                                                            Also, our goal line defense is the headbanger ball, with Siler, Dobbins and Polk coming in. Those three knock the crap out of people.
