Yeah, get it straight Dawkins, jeezus. T-Pain is a crapty rapper/singer, TJ-Pain is a crapty running back. See? One makes you sick hearing him, the other makes you sick watching him try to play football.
Yeah, not to mention his whopping 70 YPG and 3.8 per carry:laughy32:. I'm sure the Jets front office is real pleased with that pickup. You dumb bastards should have kept Kevan Barlow, he could have done that, and for a tenth of the price!! LOLOLOLOLLLLLLLL!!!!!
his only accomplishment was getting 100 yards vs the Steelers, and that was just bad tackling by our defense.. not to mention his only touchdown so far comes against the 0-11 Dolphins..
Granted, Jones > Benson (especially at blitz protection, my god), but I seriously wonder if all the Bears fans looking for something and someone to blame real quick think that TJ's yards per carry average would translate to something that isn't terrible behind this O-line the Bears have. They all seemed to forget that for the first few weeks of 2006, Jones looked like trash and everyone was calling for Benson to start. They also seemed to forget who and what TJ was before he came to the Bears. I liked the guy but cmon let's be honest with ourselves.
Exactly. And criticizing the Bears for not keeping him? To do so would require an extension for 5 million a year? Benson has been awful for the first part of the year but before he got injured he had those 3 runs of 20 plus in 35 carries. Hopefully we'll have a line and see what Benson is made of.
WTF Homer didn't you realize the Bears' salary cap is infinity, they could've kept Benson as a backup to TJ with that fat bonus, caved in and gave Briggs his long-term contract with a $20m bonus like he wanted, made Harris the highest paid D-lineman in the league, then trade for McNabb AND sign Faneca and Michael Turner this offseason. Come on quit being a Jerry Angelo apologist.
