There ya go......no name guys, getting the job done. And if Connor did go down, they would bring someone in also.
Those guys.....didn't get the job done. Same mentality in 2014. Bell went down, brought a guy in. Disastrous result.

That's literally where the similarities end. Refusing to look closer at it is dishonest.
You're better than throwing fits. No one is saying it's fool-proof or that there are possible problems. But I'd rather roll those dice on a team with a strong leadership group to keep him in line than risk having a guy who is has been a career backup for 8 seasons be the guy.
ok lets play the what if game. we have josh dobbs who is an unproven back up. We could cure that problem instantly by going out and signing krapernick. Hes been to the playoffs, hes been to the superbowl. He comes with a media circus just like bell, and potential locker room hazards. But if we lost ben we wouldnt be totally screwed. We know ben is fragile. why arent we doing this?

Dishonest comparison is dishonest.

If Kaepernick was anywhere near the level of Bell he'd be on a team right now (or at least enough to make the reward out-weigh the risk). End of story.

It makes no difference either way, this team will not see the Super Bowl this year, period......

Again, dishonest comparison is dishonest. Kaepernick was already trending down.

Also I would imagine the team has a sense of what would happen if he came back. I doubt the coaches would bring him in if they really felt there was cause for concern.

Eric Reid was just as involved with the anthem circus as Kaepernick. Another guy being talked about as being "blackballed."

The point is teams will take chance on possible concerns if the on-field reward is there

I will keep bringing up Reid because he's an example of a possible locker room distraction getting a job because the on-field benefit is worth the risk. Same issue, one is better than the other and got a job.

i said that earlier .
I mean what if heyward or tuitt go down were screwed!
what if haden goes down, were screwed!
what if ben goes down, were screwed!
what if pouncey goes down, were screwed!

no we dont have an all prop waiting back behind those guys, but we dont have a circus either. We dont have a guy the coach , line, and qb have made fun of. we currently have a team clicking. a redhot rb. were back in contention. somehow, some way were regarded as what a top 6 team? i mean, thats in contention........right up there..........the possibility remains dick head comes in and turmoil brews.................

Are you even going to attempt to see the parallels? Two players who would be possible distractions. One is really good. One is not as good. The good one got a job.

I can't make it any simpler than that. It's about players who could mess with chemistry finding teams, not about QBs or safeties

And again I say do the Steelers have players of Bell's caliber at those positions they could choose to not have?

Also do you really think this team hasn't considered this? You think if they had real concerns he'd mess the chemistry up they'd welcome him back?
