I would've loved to see DT pan out here. But "iffy hands" is a quote I've heard about him often and when you combine that with his questionable work attitude that was enough to make him lose his spot. It wasn't like Shanny didn't give him a chance. He had several months to improve his standing on the team and didn't do it.

And you're kidding yourself if you don't think that T.O. and OchoCinco don't put in the work to be dominant on the field. They may be blessed with extraordinary talent but they didn't get to where they are today by half assing it in the film room.

i hear what you are saying, but after watching last season and this preseason and these first 5 games your telling me that devin thomas could not help this team more than joey galloway or roydell williams?? i have a serious issue with that, if anyone player would be the one to get the ax as of right now it should be williams, shit williams cost us about 20 yards yesterday when he made a block in that back about 10 yards behind banks.

my whole problem with this is he was never given a chance. you could see the hunger in him every time he touched the feild with special teams, i just don't know why he wasn't given an opportunity to get in there with the offense.
