lostnmexico Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Thomas Dimitroff missed badly on this one while many of us on this board clamored for his services. Now we are stuck with Fudge and the Missouri band-aid man! Bernard Pollard-DB- Texans Nov. 5 - 2:55 pm et The Texans are allowing a meager 58.2 rushing yards per game since Bernard Pollard took over as the starting strong safety in Week 4.They had surrendered 205.0 rushing yards per game in the first three weeks of the season. While the front-seven deserves much of the credit for the dramatic turnaround, Pollard has brought a hard-hitting style to the secondary. The Texans can thank the Chiefs (No. 30 in total defense), who decided they no longer needed Pollard just prior to the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylor228193 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) he's on injured reserve... plus, it doesn't help that he's a rookie and playing at a spot with strong competition. not sure how you could call him a bust yet.

lostnmexico Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 I did not call him a bust. I called him a potential bust and that is a real possibility based on what he has shown so far. Pollard would have been great for us as well then we could have played Coleman in the slot at Nickle.Bad non-move TD! Apathy sux! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowcountry Falcon Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 (edited) DeCoud has been great this year. Moore wasn't needed anyways yet. He will be great for the future though.you fail Edited November 5, 2009 by veritas_e36 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERY player in the draft this year could be labeled a "potential bust" from matthew stafford to mark sanchez to william moore to really anyone who was drafted in the first two rounds. wait a year or two so william moore can show you what he's worth on the field before you start labelling him a potential bust. if he starts playing like jason webster did then i would see your point, but you're basing this "potential bust" thing off of absolutely nothing.

lostnmexico Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 The topic is not really about our "potential bust" Moore. Its about Pollard. We should have picked him up when he was available! Here is the attrition list:William MooreJamal FudgeEric Coleman being forced to play out of position at SS and now .......Charlie PeprikaDude. We needed a SS! We still need a SS and Dimitroff missed the boat on this one!Bon Voyage TD! Totally Disatrous passing on a guy like Pollard.

F*ckTheSaints Posted November 6, 2009 Share Posted November 6, 2009 I did not call him a bust. I called him a potential bust... With that logic, isn't every rookie a potential bust?

lostnmexico Posted November 7, 2009 Author Share Posted November 7, 2009 Moore was a first rounder who to this point has produced nothing but medical costs! That makes him a potential BUST.

Pollard would have been great for us as well then we could have played Coleman in the slot at Nickle.Bad non-move TD! Apathy sux!Well by your standards every rookie is a potential bust. Article says the improvement on defense is the result of the front 7 not Pollard. You also have to look at it as "...is Pollard that GOOD or was who he replaced that BAD?" Considering the Chiefs had cut him, I would think it's the latter. Also, there are 29 other GMs didn't make the move. DeCoud and Coleman are both playing well so it's no sweat off the back. Pollard wouldn't have improved our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dmite Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 Just like Decoud was a bust last year... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lil_charles01 Posted November 7, 2009 Share Posted November 7, 2009 he's on injured reserve... plus, it doesn't help that he's a rookie and playing at a spot with strong competition. not sure how you could call him a bust yet.Not to call him a bust but, anytime you get a season ending injury your first year, that's not good. Not only is he missing some development, but we are going to build up our secondary in the off season and it's going to be alot of competition. So I worry he want see as many snaps with the first team which is going to lead to him being a back up and eventually getting cut. Then you guys will be calling him a bust.
