Why this has worked, is because the coaches has given him chances to play more. As bad as Mitchellis, Holiday was even worst after last years play and preseason this year.
If they had never given him the chance on the field, who he be playing ? [Reply]

So you still think the only way a player gets a chance is by playing in games. Fantastic. And you still are trying to convince us you have knowlege of football programs. [Reply]

So you are telling me Allen didn't play any preseason games, plus Holiday was a stud and not injured ?
What top 25 program was that you speak of ? :-) [Reply]

There was some good comedy and fun times. Now it's turning into a he said / he said thread.
Difference in opinions .
But tobe honest, this thread was started from a member who was frustrated on another post. The mere mention of Rich Scanlon brings out the best on this BB. :-) [Reply]
Any time someone asks about why Scanlon should get a shot you mention pre season games. Thats it. Thats all you mention. Other people try to tell you that is not the end all decider in who starts. But still, all you talk is preseason.
You have yet to concede the idea that he doesn't look as good in practice and training camp as Mitchell and thats why he is on the bench and not playing... [Reply]

Zach in fairness we do not know that. My opinion only but even if Scanlon did practice better there is more than a decent chance that Mitchell would be getting the game time because the club has invested such a high draft pick in him. Most likely you are right, I am just pointing out we cannot know it as a fact. [Reply]

Dipshit, how can I concede it when I don't beleive it ?
I do believe Rich is better than Mitchell. Crap I would probally bet That Jones is better than Mitchell. But none of us has gotten a chance to see them , but limited plays, mostly from preseason.
How is it that Mitchell is so wonderful but yet you say he sucks ? Is this some of that evaluating skills you have from that famous top 25 high school program from years past on the east side of KC ?
If you were as good as you claim, you would have went to college to play ball or at the very least been a coach with that world of talent you recieved.
How many years were you a starter in high school ball ? All state ?
Look, let it go, we have a difference in opinions. Many have failed to answer why it is a bad thing to play other players when the current players suck, including you. [Reply]
If the search function was working, I'd dig up TheBadGuy's comments from his coverage at Training camp and see what his opinions were on the LBs. [Reply]
