    I like the Berry signing, but we could have used a back or WR more...

    I kind of feel bad for Epps. He put himself in a vulnerable position to go up and get that ball and then his knees blown up... Then he gets cut.

    The way McKnight returns the ball it's clear he's a dynamic player, how he isn't used more at RB especially on screens of check downs is mind boggling, he had some fumbles as a rookie so what? Sanchez gets 101 chances, no one else gets any.

    Epps won't be missed.

    Glad to have McKnight back on offense. We need more weapons in our o-arsenal.

    Sanchez can't throw PERIOD he has the worst qb rating in the NFL he is ranked at a strong 32

    Yea if given half the chance at running back he might surprise us, but nooooooooo we rather stick with "Greene For 2" it's like this team is afraid to make changes when they really need to

    The move back to RB for McKnight bodes well for more Tebowcat, since McKnight is the only decent wingback/slotback on the team, Greene is too slow and Powell does not have the agility.

    Maybe McKnight can take the end arounds and not Greene.

    Glad McKnight is heading back to the backfield and I'm guessing Epps' release has more to do with his injury then it does signal a good sign for the return of Dustin Keller because for the last two weeks he was supposed to play and didn't, so until he either practices fully or shows up on the non-inactive list an hour and a half before game time, I won't believe he's back.

    McKnight has to be the pass catching outlet option out of the backfield. I would also use him as a third WR option like a Welker. Keep him in the slot, shallow crosses - let him be a dump down threat.

    Imagine that? Drives me crazy seeing Greene get those carries. He's bad enough doing what he's supposed to be good at.
