Quote:They need to cut slow [BAD WORD REMOVED] Poz. If the fans and gm want him around so much, make him the linebackers coach then. All the emotional attacthment some on here have for these players won't make this team better.

I think Poz has been an excellent example of a 'team player', and he deserves all the accolades he has gotten. That being said, Poz has become too slow to keep up with other teams TE's. The results of this are well documented as we've been ripped over and over across the middle by teams with pass catching TE's; and yes, this is when Poz was healthy too.

 

Which raises another point; since he is now getting on towards the end of his career he is going to become more and more injury prone.

 

It is the nature of professional football to eventually, for the sake of the team, to have to part company with players as they become less productive. Poz is well liked, but in my opinion it's time to move on from him if we can find someone better or at least as good and younger. Until we do upgrade from Poz, we are going to continue to get ripped across the middle by crossing receivers.
