You think a 27 year old Military vet may be able to lead his classmates of '04?

Lastly, I didn't suggest turning over the reigns, I said I'd like to see him get a legitimate shot at the job.

uh, lemar started FOURTEEN games due to injury (and filled in well) before getting a starting nod the next year. he was good enough in practice that the staff felt he could be trusted (they saw him breaking down film with pierce well beyond what other players were doing). all last year holdman (who blatantly sucked) was used more than any other reserve, meaning they showed nothing in practice to merit playing time.

i have NO idea why you think being a military vet means anything as far as talent or field awareness. this is the NFL, not college. speed means jack if you're out of position r misread the play.
