    There was NO WAY IN HELL Henry was coming back here.

    He flat out stated Butch screwed him over and he would take less money elsewhere as to not come back.

    I can in no way, shape or form blame that one on Phil no matter how much I'd like to.

    Baxter was a great pickup, just like LCB. Who knew BOTH would blow out their knees? That was fluke luck, again, can't blame Phil for that one.

    Fisk was a waste, yes, and if Romeo and Phil had half a brain in the first place we would have ran the 4-3 for one season while we drafted guys to fit the 3-4 so we didn't overload on stopgap FAs, but we wanted a change and we wanted it NOW and we got what we were asking for now didn't we?

    It was time for a change... but lets not forget Phil made some huge moves for this team. He got Frye out of here... he's the reason we have Quinn, Thomas, Wimbley, Rogers, Williams, Lewis, K2, Edwards. Think about it... we had Suggs and Green in the backfield previously. Yuck!!

    He brought in Frye that was his personal choice. Quinn has proven nothing. Thomas was not worth the number three pick in the draft albeit he is good. Wimbley is average and one dimensional and has been exposed and his performance is way less than the 11 pick in the draft. Rogers will be gone in three years and he gave a solid CB and third rounder for him no great shakes there. Jamal Lewis is washed up caput. K2 was not brought in by Sewage he was brought in by Butch. Edwards was the 3 pick in the draft and has underachieved the three pick should perennial all pro. He kept Suggs and Green and paid a truckload to both proclaiming to emerge big time. He passed on Adrian Peterson, Willie Parker, and several other RB's to be named later to keep those stiffs.

    He also brought in Andruzzi, Baxter, Shaffer, Washington, McGinest at way more money than their empty or half full tanks were worth.

    He paid Cutch and Roye three times their worth

    I got twenty five other blunders that Sewage made. He stank from the beginning by signing Dilfer and letting Henry go and compounded itazn right up to the end. GOOD RIDDANCE 🙄

    Still.... Savage left it better than when he got it. You made some valid points but he did put some playmakers and pro bowlers on our team. Theres no changing that.
