When you have a guy who can break open a game, get you field position, and force the team to just do generally stupid things simply by standing out there, you aren't paying him too much. If they kick it through the back of the endzone on a punt or out or short on a kickoff, then his presence alone has gained anywhere from 10-20 extra yards based on that alone.

 

Now, had you said they are PLAYING him too much to use him on special teams, that may be an argument I can support. He had a bit of a resurgence when they took him out of the offense and used him primarily on special teams.

In 7 years has he done anything that makes you think he should ever be on offense? I guess the defense may scheme something to stop him and thus other players are open.

 

He seems to run bad routes and when he does catch the ball, he seems to get knocked over by the pass.

Rachel off team?

Wow! The offensive line finally shows some fight!

 

vaughn mcclure‏@vxmcclure23Chilo Rachal leaves the Bears for personal reasons. James Brown elevated to active roster.

Rachal on reserve/left squad list.

According to multiple sources, Chilo Rachal became upset after being demoted for Chris Spencer, couldn't handle it, and just left.

 

 

 

What. an. idiot.

I am not excusing what Rachal did here, you never leave your team. But I want to know why Rachal is getting demoted for Spencer here, when all we saw on Monday night was Webb and Carimi getting their asses handed to them?

I'm going to go out on a limb and say Spencer could reasonably provide better blocking than Rachal, but we have absolutely horrid tackles behind our horrid tackles.

 

Although I honestly think Lance Louis played a better RT last year than Carimi who has just been awful. Absolutely awful.

Rachel off team?

Good riddance your career is toast!

well done there.

What I'm hearing second hand from my dad who listened to the radio earlier, re: Rachal

 

Guy is very emotional and guys on SF knew how to push his buttons. Was getting so wound up he couldn't even play, so he gets benched for Spencer. Gets him even more wound up and he has to leave the team...and no one has spoken to him since. Expected to get released, but I think the team would like to make contact with him first to make sure his mental health is OK

BTW...I love watching a team whose defense rarely loses you a game. But if I'm choosing between the likely cause of loss being defense or a complete inability to stop the pass rush, I'm choosing the former. I hate knowing that on any given day we may give up 5+ sacks and have even more plays completely wrecked by poor blocking and/or scheming. Such hard football to watch.

thanks!

Just saw a ESPN article saying Carimi will be demoted. Jonathan Scott will most likely start in his place.

If only we could demote them all.

They actually use a 1st round draft pick on a tackle, and he sucks it up.

I'm not giving up on him yet. Hasn't even played a full year yet, right?

 

At least Webb keeps getting chance after chance.

I agree, he has only played 12 NFL games, but he just looks SOOO bad at times, he has a long way to go.

Good to see that Ndamukong Suh is still as dirty as it gets

I thought it was an accident but more they show, more I'm convinced it was intentional.

How was that not pi?

Lol how is that not reviewable?

How did that touchdown possibly count? He was clearly down.
