The Clown shall Return!

Actually, probably not.

Yankeejet22 · 10-04-2010, 11:22 AM

just in time for the Vikings to sign Clowney...

Austin · 10-04-2010, 11:22 AM

Clowney blew a play on punt coverage yesterday.

Whatever. Time for Holmes to ball out.

He did..

Shame too because he did a good job getting down there. Just missed badly and that absolutely had to hurt his standing with the team.

He sure did he could have hammered that returner.

Untouchable · 10-04-2010, 11:37 AM

Hopefully Clowney stays gone.

Dammit I'm tired of hearing about that guy.

KRL · 10-04-2010, 11:39 AM

I called it in the Howard Green thread. In a couple of days I expect them
to re-sign Turner to the practice squad

FlagmanL11 · 10-04-2010, 11:39 AM

big loss, not sure about this move, both are going to be tough to replace... who can we pick up to fill the WR role???

Dirtstar · 10-04-2010, 11:46 AM

Clowney and Ratliff reunited at last!!!

Might have to take a chance on a guy with existing league infractions.

Ugh How do you cancel a custom Jersey order from nflshop ?

Was just going to ask the same thing.

crasherino · 10-04-2010, 11:53 AM

All and all, I'd rather have Clowney on the team as only having 4 WRs is thin, but if the team feels that guys like Dixon are worthy of having on the squad, I'll defer to them. And if they want to carry 2 FBs and 4 TEs, you gotta sacrifice somewhere.

He's absolutely awful in punt coverage. As discussed, he missed the opportunity to crush that returner on that return. But, at least he got down there. On the punt before, he was double teamed at the line, and barely made it 5 yards downfield.

I'm not sure who they'll use as a gunner, but having Clowney there was as good as having no one, so I'm not hugely concerned. Lowery and Cole perhaps?

Agreed, Jets made a mistake keeping Clowney and letting Wallace Wright go.
