    Please tell me, looking at the stats this year (don't care about past years....they are irrelevant), how he is our best player? Huge game today. Number of catches?

    Was he even on the field at the end of the game?

    If he refused to play can we fire him and not take a cap hit? No idea if this is possible.

    I'd consider releasing him.

    That's because our amazing OC decided to bench him in the most important game of the season.

    No. He would not be bitching if Sanchez wasn't struggling. He was obviously pissed off he had a down year, and he was being an idiot about it. Keep him for one more season

    +1, Kerley was the shit today, gorgeous 41 yard strike to mulligan, nice punt returns, and some great catch and runs hes a the true workhorse for us right now.


    ASITS, Blackmon is a top 5 pick thats too much trading up for us.

    I don't think anyone would take him.
    We are stuck with him for one more and then we can cut him.

    Tanny and Rex Laugh and Knee Slap on Hard Knocks How he's the best player on the field... They give Him 50 Mill and a Captaincy....

    Then Target him 1x in the finale... Anyone shiocked he goes off...


    Look at Percy Harvin.... That team is down to no one yet they feed that guy the ball any way they could...

    Part of me can't blame Tone.... If any of us were Tone we'd Be ### ##### ####### PISSSED OFF!!!!!

    No catches all game?

    Where is the proof he took himself out. Rex clearly was hinting at the presser that Holmes took himself out.

    Since Holmes was given away for almost nothing by the Steelers, I'll say what he says is almost meaningless.
    Also, when they showed him on tv, he wasn't even watching the game.

    Everybody keeps talking about Holmes, Sanchez won't even look down the field. Screen passes, interceptions to oversized linebackers & Def. linemen. If Sanchez picks his nose one more time I'm going to puke.

    You need targets and a QB that can throw past 5 yards to put up decent WR stats.....

    The best I can piece together from the various interviews is that:

    1.) Holmes went off on Sanchez in the huddle at least once.

    2.) Holmes refused to hustle back to the huddle after a play.

    3.) Schotty sent Turner in to replace Holmes.

    4.) Holmes stormed off to the bench, pouted, and refused to go back in.

    And, that's our team captain.

    At least remove the Captain label. He is far from Captain material.

    Slippery boogers could be part of his fumbling problem.

    When asked about his confidence level in Schottenheimer, Holmes responded, "Well, let's hope for the best." aka Holmes hates schotty and can't wait till he gets canned

    Can't believe fans are sticking up for a HIGHLY paid head case that quit on the team.

    Tanny is an accountant and Rex still thinks Eric Smith is a better safety than Rhodes and Lowery.

    Yep. I want guys that quit on the team.

    Really????? I guess you do.

    Even Rex (the ultimate players coach wasn't sticking up for him in the presser)
