show me a good team in the nfl who has a loud mouth idiot who mouths off to the coach.

so is crumpler gone too? dunn? both have been critical at times, though not as demonstrative.

hall needs to keep his mouth in check, yes, but petrino has some responsibility in this, too. it's not like anyone on the team publicly disagreed with anything he said. that says a lot. if he was out of touch with what they were thinking, someone would have came out and said it.

i want him to shut-up and play, but i don't want one of our best players to be traded away for who knows what.

i wouldn't doubt to see crumpler gone. everyone talks like he is one of the best te's in the league but i can name at least 12 that are better than him. and dunn. come on...we all know that the end is near for him.

and when i said mouth off to his coach, i didn't mean question him. i meant the kind of shyt that hall pulled vs the panthers.

hall's got a mouth and hasn't lived up to the hype in the past, but it doesn't take a genius to see that hall is playing about as close to a shutdown corner you can be in this league. his worst game was against the giants, and even then he had multiple key deep passes defensed and what should have been a two picks and a six if not for a stupid penalty and shockey tripping hall.

please name the 12. a healthy crumpler is not the 13th best te in this league.

oh..you saw that game? so that means you think steve smith is carolina's #2? haha

is steve smith taller than 5'11"?

toomer burnt hall a couple of times

andre davis made him look bad

hall is the most overrated db in the nfl period that is a fact. ask anyone who knows shyt about the nfl and they will tell you that.

you said hall doesn't ever cover #1 wr;s. oh, i see.....you were wrong.

toomer got by hall a couple times........yep...and that was the worst game of the season for hall.

andre davis made hall look bad? which play? schaub was afraid to even throw to hall's side of the field.

so that is all you have from almost a half season's worth of games? wow...maybe by the end of the season, hall will have been beurn a couple times by 2 wrs. oh dear!!!!

champ bailey, chad johnson, keyshawn jonhson and several others have said that hall is one of the best.....bailey said he was the very best. you are telling me that you know more about wr/cb play than those guys? laugh.gif

look for atlanta second-year tailback jerious norwood to start taking over a much bigger workload. the falcons won't totally phase out warrick dunn but, at age 32, the 11-year veteran is starting to show some wear and he doesn't figure into the long-term future for coach bobby petrino's staff. by the way, petrino has a lot more clout over personnel matters, and far more sway in general, than did predecessor jim mora. which is saying something for a guy coming into the nfl from the college ranks. several general managers in the league expect petrino to clean house after this season, with cornerback deangelo hall, not surprisingly, atop the list of veterans who will be traded

8th game of the season, dunn i believe had a back surgery prior to season start, and our coaches are just now figuring this out.

dunn dont let them paralysis you as you approach your retirement years, like any other job your just a number. the fans are showing they are up set at the record of the falcons and are blaming a few of you old veterans

antonio gates

jason witten

dallas clark

chris cooley

benjamin watson

todd heap

kellen winslow

tony gonzalez

randy mcmichael

heath miller

greg olsen

gates- given

witten- comparable

clark- excellent hands, not so good with the blocking

cooley- ?

watson- has potential to be top 3

heap- hasn't been good in a while

winslow- and you're saying crumpler has a mouth?

gonzalez- over the hill, but still top 5

mcmichael- are you kidding?

miller- potential, but are you kidding?

olsen- a rookie? again, are you kidding?

and that's 11, btw. i'll pretend that you listed shockey for a 12th, but he's another barker without as much bite.

seriously, a healthy crumpler falls right behind gates in the second echelon along with guys like witten and clark

witten - comparible? catches almost everything around him and is having a season far and above any that crumpler has ever had.

clark - #2 te on his team and still has more yards than crumpler.

cooley - are you serious??! do you watch any other teams besides the falcons? cooley is awesome!

heap - having a bad year and is still putting up the same numbers that crupler is.

gonzalez - over the hill but still 5 times better than crumpler will ever be.

mcmichael - having a terrible year...but still has more receiving yards than crumpler.

miller - i would take him over crumpler any day!

olsen - started 2 games this season and is playing at a level far above crumpler.

the good news it that hall will keep playing for himself and his stats, so he will probably finish the season with 5-8 int's. with his nametag and pretty stats at the end of the year we should be able to get pretty good value for him. at least another first rounder.

funny thing is that i wouldn't be suprised if we traded him to the patriots. laugh.gif

i also wouldn't be suprised to see chad johnson on our team next year. (which would be nice but i feel that we could do without him...)

.....and the next head coach of the falcons in 2009 will still be looking for a cb in free agency and the 2009 nfl draft..

wow... this is becoming real "catty".

who is tough-minded? these guys can't get over hall's comments?

it's seems like excuse to save money, and lose with a young team for the next 2 seasons... real convenient..

they won't get anything of value for hall. maybe, a 1st rounder..

even dumber: there are no cbs that run as fast in the next two nfl drafts...the falcons also have an awful history of signing free agent cbs...free agency period.

pride before the fall... they are about to shoot themselves in the foot again...

don't they know that the same fools that are cheering for hall to be gone, will also be cheering for this staff to be gone (+ mckay) in 1-3 seasons?

you cannot add to this team by constantly subtracting...

they will be drafting the top ncaa cb again in 2010...

another "expert" stating opinion as fact................trading hall would be stupid!

it would be stupid if we did not got good value for him.

i do not advocate trading away one of the premier players at his position but if you could get good value for him its something to look at

guys with his athletic ability are hard to come by.
