I've had about all I can take of Early Dropset. His career highlight film involves primarily drops or falling down. Terrible today.

Please cut Early freakin' Doucet


Coach presser: "Early is a real good player. He just can't drop balls. But he is a fighter."

Those were two HORRIFIC drops. Man.

This month or last month. The guy brings nothing but a cheap salary to the table. Let Williams or Byrd have a chance to come in and do something stupid.

Let Byrd play. Ya Doucet is a fighter. That will get him a flag. We need our receivers to catch the damn ball. His drops are always at the worst time.

Doucet had his usual drops in clutch situations. He has done this throughout his career.

I was almost believing in Housler, who to be fair made some nice plays to try and even out his drops.

Roberts? He is a good WR. Never going to be great, but good, yes. The drop at the end I can excuse after the game he had.

I'd like to see Byrd play. Not much downside to it.

Signed him for cheap as a fourth WR. Not a great signing by any stretch, but not a huge mistake.

Huh uh. Signed him to be the 3rd receiver, before the draft. The mistake was not getting a solid #2 or #3 speedster receiver off the FA market, and wasting our 1st round pick on a WR I have no faith in, and re-signing Doucet to boot.

Typical Cards we finally get something out of Floyd, and the rest of the guys can't catch the ball

I'd be happy with Rob, Floyd, Fitz and Housler as a base offense. 3 wide.

Doucet bye bye.

I second this. Let Laron Byrd start over Doucet. At least we know he can catch.

Ref blew that non call. Was completely spun around and could not make a call. About 7 drops from all. Skelton looked poised today.

Let Byrd play, I say sure...but rather move Floyd up the depth chart to take Doucet's position. Floyd just needs reps, he has skills and was drafted for a reason.

He is finally starting to contribute so I agree he needs to play more. We spent a high pick on him, we need to take advantage of it.

I remember that, one. Same game a Bengal does a 360 over DWash, our receiver falls down untouched, letting a game tying TD fall to the turf.

Then they should've cut Skelton for his horrendous throw on the play too

Edit: Nevermind

Misunderstood post & had to edit.

The play in Cincy has been discussed at length.


Put in Byrd
