It's hard for me to comment on this without swearing.
I'm so tired of our team getting worse-than-normal luck with serious injuries.
Losing Sterling Sharpe in his early prime, to a neck condition, was the worst.
He was drafted the same draft as the Cowboys Michael Irvin.
I still believe Sharpe was better, the better pick, player.
But Sterling's career ended in 1994.
We lost in the playoffs, to Irvin, in 1994, 1995, 1996.
Irvin, coincidentally, in 1999 had his own neck injury that ended his career.
Why wasn't it Irvin in 94 and Sterling in 99?
We'd have won 2 more Super Bowls.
We also lost an emerging stud WR Terrence Murphy to a neck, in 2005.
Tim Lewis.
I think even LeRoy Butler had to hang it up because of a neck.
Nick Collins is our most underrated player.
He is a superstar, who doesn't get the national pub.
He's our Polamalu, Ed Reed, Bob Sanders.
I like Peprah, and Burnett. But they are not in the class of Collins.
Also, they won't each last the next 14+3 games.
We need more re-enforcements.
Not sure about Sharper because that guy always has gotten torched for deep touchdowns, even before he got slower.
What's up with Atari Bigby in Seattle?
