Kerry Rhodes still unemployed?

[AzStevenCal]

We probably would have won on Sunday with him out there. Glad the Bidwills and BA need to make a statement over actually winning football games.

Yup. Crying shame.

Just think how badly we would have lost if Kroenke and Fisher didn't need to make a statement over actually winning football games. Remember, he left us and every team in the league probably had a better chance of signing him than we did. Well, every team except for the Jets and probably the Saints.

true, but LT doesn't cover TEs...that's the Safety's job.

I'm pretty sure we have a Safety or two that was unaware of this last Sunday.

I thought our LBs were the ones getting burned by that guy

At 7 catches and 141 yards, it's fair to say our entire D was getting burned by him. So dumb that we let go of Rhodes.

i saw plenty of both. either that, or our scheme was atrocious to not have any safety guarding the middle of the field as their TE just tore it apart.

Imagine having Washington AND Rhodes. :0

yeah i havent re watched and they only show the qb and the throw/catch on tv so no idea what was happening really.

Dansby also got roasted by Cook. It was a lack of team effort.

To Mao's point, I do think Rhodes makes an impact and perhaps changes the outcome of the game.

Yep. The Rams did a good job of attacking Dansby's zone with Cook. That was a mismatch that they took advantage of all day.

yeah, I wasn't happy to see Los looking like he's lost a step...or three either.

I never heard of KR being an issue as far as being a teammate. Everyone seemed to get along with him. He seemed to work hard, and he was awesome on the field. Definitely an upper level safety in the NFL and dude is a total football hawk.

Unless he just wants an outrageous contract, which nobody has said, there is only one explanation why he cant find a job in the NFL.

Sorry but when there's smoke theres fire and its just not right.

According to reports Rhodes had try outs with 4 teams this week and everyone passed.

where did you see this report? in the report O I think posted, it was that 4 teams brought in defensive backs and not one of them even brought Rhodes in for a visit.

Profootballtalk had a story on Rhodes today about this very subject.

I think you misread the story. it says no one even bothered to bring him in for tryouts (it actually implied no team has brought him in for a visit PERIOD all off-season) and that was suspicious. it was kind the point of the whole article.

you read the story wrong - from PFT:

So I did a little digging, and I learned that four teams worked out defensive backs this past week. No team — those four or the other 28 — kicked tires on Kerry Rhodes.

 

[ASUCHRIS]

Anyone care to mention how the 4 players getting tryouts are better than Rhodes? Hell, Rhodes based on last year could start for well over half the teams in football. But he isn't good enough to even get a sniff with teams desperate for a safety?

Anyone who thinks he isn't getting blackballed is living in a dream world.

Oops. I did read it wrong

Absolutely he is blacklisted and it's ridiculous, the man played at near a pro bowl level in Horton's D.

Shame on the NFL.
