That's been the case with all the defenders we let go, Fangio schemed them up.

Meanwhile all the offensive players have done better elsewhere, Ginn and Delanie the most notable, and now Crabs. Just goes to show the problem is and always was on the offensive side of the ball.

Derek Carrier, Delanie Walker, and Michael Crabtree.

That's what happens when a teams QB holds their passing game hostage.

When are people going to understand that a QB IS the center piece of the offense, the ball distributor, and the position defenses scheme around.

If teams are not scheming against your QBs passing ability...well...no skill players other than the RB will shine in that offense and you better draft or acquire a new QB.

The QB makes the offense work. Think this was mentioned about 7 years ago.

GM did his job. Not his fault Crabs didn't get playing time here.

Crabtree was a starter for us during his entire time here.

How is Crabtree an indictment of the GM?
