formul8or Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 YES!!!!!I can see why we kept him so long, when I went to training camps he was very, very hard working. I know the coaches want that in their players, unfortunately he lacked the brains to do his job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uga2006 Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Haha finally. I wonder if BMiller can get pressure on the QB. I always thought he was best suited for DE but for some reason he playd LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

red falcon Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Not sure if I remember correctly, but isn't miller a speed rusher? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
norbendon Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 I don't want to say I'm happy. After all, no one really likes to see a man lose his job. However, this is way overdue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SetzerFalcon Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Honestly, I probably made more fun of Jennings than any poster here in the gameday thread when he'd pull one of his shenanigans or when I was just annoyed at the game in general (hey, I'm not above making fun of an easy target ). That said I can't bring myself to be "thrilled" at his departure if for no other reason than I don't want to see any man out of a job. So I wish him all the best in finding another position somewhere but honestly feel like it was way past time for him to move on from Atlanta.
