Or someone who rolls around on the groud like a fish out of water cause he's tired. Or someone that's going to bitch about playing in a 3-4. Lose some damn weight cause he's not as effective at 360lbs. That's obvious. The word is out on Mr. Buttersworth.

Adding Haynesworth took the team from a pathetic 24 sacks in 2008 to 40 team sacks in 2009. He made a huge difference. That sack increase can be attributed solely to Al. Without him, Orakpo would be getting the double teams instead of him and his sacks would not have been there.

As for his durability or the number of plays he's actually on the field...realize he's the only player on our D consistently being double-teamed on every play. He must be to be stopped. He's pushing against 600-700 pounds a play, not 300-350. When he's not on the field, Rak gets the double but that's only when Al is sitting. He adds the dimension to our defense that makes us dangerous...one that leaves the opposing offense with more than one player they wish they could double team, but can't.

u mean Orakpo, and carter... because for i think 7, of Orakpo's sacks.... and about 4 or carters... Ur boy AL wasnt even on the field.

u seem to forget how much time this guy missed weather it be taking plays off for a breather or getting hurt...

besides that point, i hope he works hard during this off-season and contributes to the best of his ability.

I didn't see Haynesworth getting double teamed all the time. Sorry but that's not completly true. In Orakpo's biggest game, which was against Oakland, Hayneswroth wasn't on the field, was he? I'm sure someone can check that out. Explain this....why did the defense perform worse in 2009? We gave up more points, more rushing yards. Yes we got more sacks but so what? The defense...overall didn't play better. Honestly AH had an up and down year. At his salary he's not suppose to have an up and down year. Year two I want to see a complete monster that's in shape and makes the guys around him better.
