Well what should and will happen are probably 2 different things. I am sure we will hear an excuse from Whisenhunt about how he was "disappointed and frustrated" and the laughing had no bearing on the game and Anderson will continue to start. If he does anything more than that I will be pleasantly surprised.

of course he should be cut, in years past once the old man heard that language on tv he probably wouldn't have been able to duck behind the curtain after he refused to talk anymore, he would have been grabbed and escorted off the property then and there,
of all the times i have scratched my head at why we kept starting players at certain positions that clearly weren't talented and of all the times i have shook my head in disgust as we let a player "get away' that did have talent...this is the one time that surely this guy has got to GO..but this organization is run in such a bizarre fashion albeit not so much anymore,that i will end up shaking my head wondering WHY DA is starting next week?!?!

this little drama will probably cement in whiz' mind that DA does have moxie and fire too! he'll be twice the locker room leader now, ken has probably spent a sleepless night wondering how to get him an extension,

seriously if anderson is still wearing a cards uniform this time tomorrow i must question whiz' "man love"for this guy...it would start to make me uncomfortable, thinking why derrick suddenly grew a beard and everything.....eeeeuuuwwwwwww!!!!! bad mental picture bad mental picture:bang:
i think i'll just ban myself for three days now....thank you:barf:

Bench him and go with the rookies (Hall & Skeleton) for the rest of the season. Its time to evaluate if either of them are worth keeping for the future.

I said bench him, but not for his out-burst.

While crude, it happens, and if DA was not frustrated at this point then I would check him for a pulse.

I would bench him just because he is horrible at this position.

Bench him. Why continue to play him? I was going to say continue to start him and let him get smashed by opposing defenses the rest of the year but you have to find out if Skelton has anything at all.

I have seen enough. Cut him. At this point who cares who replaces him?

Clearly at this point -- all you know is that Anderson isnt on the team next year

You play Max, but more importantly, you get Skelton reps during practice with an eye on getting him snaps during the last two games of the season.

You also root for Carolina, Detroit and Buffalo to win some games late.

I say start him. Before everyone lynch me, hear me out.

You start Anderson because you KNOW he sucks. If we start Hall, we just THINK that he sucks. There is a possibility he might actually win a meaningless game or two and that would put us out of the Luck sweepstakes. Same thing with Skelton. We have no idea what he is capable of, thus, could surprise us and win a game.

That's a good point.

I don't care what they do because they don't know what to do with a high pick if they have one.

The only guy who knew what to do with it in our long history is long gone, if these clowns get the first pick in the draft I promise you they'll blow it.

If we get Luck, I think that would be enough for Fitz to stick around.

I didn't see an option in the poll for "I'd stab him if he'd stand, shoot him if he'd run"

I want everyone fired.

Everyone.

Whiz I even like and I want him fired, because he lost the team and that's the Cardinal sin of coaches, no point if he's the next Parcells incarnate, he's done here.

So what you're really saying is that you want to take a promising young QB and stick him into hell?

You want to put him on a team where idiots run it, so that he can be ground into nothingness?

So that all the hope will go out of his eyes?

I was being over the top there but really, I hope we get someone, and if we do it'll be an accident I tell you this FO can't shoot straight.

I'd be all for landing the QB of the future but my number one priority is to get a good FO.

Without that it's pointless.

There is no reason in the world not to take a QB like Luck if you can get him. Whiz got all his wins with Warner, what ever coach is here can get some wins with Luck. :) Thinking about Luck is cheering me up, don't take that away from me ...please. :p

I am now on board with this. I will no longer defend Whiz blindly. He has lost team.

Bye bye.
