I can buy that to a degree. I mean I have much love for Santana and Randel El, but neither of them is gonna win a jump ball you know? At the end of the game last week the Cowboys put TO in on defense for the bomb, because he is taller and stronger then our guys. I am not saying that our guys arent able to contribute because of their size, obviously they will still be the big play makers getting open down field. But there are just some situations (especially near the goal line, or trying to get a first down, or a long bomb at the end of the game) where you need a guy that can go up and win the jump ball.

You may not agree, but I think that is explanation enough, so until you can explain to me what is wrong with this thought process, then please give me a break.
