Is there more of a Ghost on this team than Rhodes?


I can count on one hand (maybe 1 finger) the number of times ive ever heard his name mentioned in any context this entire offseason.

In both preseason games I dont recall seeing him once. Granted I wasnt looking for him while he was playing, but when I thought back to both games, I realized I hadnt seen him.


Not a single article nor discussion on TV, Radio, Cards site, or forums regarding Rhodes.

Ive heard more about Ben Graham this offseason and preseason.


The guys a solid player. It just blows my mind when I think about how rarely I ever see any news on him. Every other player on this team, including UFA pickups have had more coverage than him. wild

During the game I wasnt.

Im talking about any context outside the game. Wouldnt you find it unusual if you went 2 or 3 months without ever hearing or seeing Peyton Mannings name? Thats how I feel with Rhodes. Considering I scower every Cards site there is, I never see anything about Rhodes.

That is because he is quietly going about doing his job without making an ass out himself off the field or getting hurt.

Typically if you don't notice a free safety, it is because he isn't getting burned or is out of position.

I played basketball with him a few times at the gym. Does that count?

He's on Twitter.

He called Larry a diva a couple of weeks ago. Hilarious tweets ensued.

What are you talking about Black T? Are you sure you watch this team?

I like having John Wayne on our team.

Wait a second.
I'm into the Stanford Cardinals.
What forum am I on?
Is this why all my posts seem out of context?

When a FS does their job, you don't hear much about them...ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS FREAKING PRESEASON
lol indeed. When you hear the FS name over and over, it means the defense is horrible and the LB's arent doing their jobs. It's a good thing not to hear Rhodes' name, that means the D-Line and LB's are takin care of business :)

Yessir it really didn't forecast anything when JJ Arrington had 28 carries for 74 yards in preseason of 2005.

Other than maybe he was going to suck as a RB.

Also probably didn't tell anyone anything when Warner was 41-67-434 yards and 3TDs either. Warner was 14-19-151 yards and a TD in game 1 vs Dallas in Arizona. Should have been able to tell right away that boy knew when to play.

Funny because he has been tweeting that you can catch him on the cover of september's GQ magazine. He tweets daily.

Maybe Black T is Kerry Rhodes and he is just trying to get some love the board!

Ed Reed disagrees with you. He gets noticed because he makes plays.

Rhodes is a solid, unspectacular type player. He's not going to make alot of plays but he's not going to get burned alot either. He's kind of like a stay-at-home defenseman in hockey.
