And we shouldn't need him against Seattle either...make SURE the foot is 100% before he comes back.

I totally agree with you. This guy is going to be needed in games against Arizona, the Giants and the Playoffs. Rest Antoine, we'll need later, not now!

oh they will need him against seatle and every other team they will face. winfield is crucial to that defense and the sooner he can get healthy and back out there the better. none of these teams can be underestimated and any team can be handed a beatdown if they dont stay focused. his backup is one of the reasons that pass defense is suckin it up somethin ugly like usual.

Winfield is like throwing a dagger. Them things mess people up.

The cardinals are schizophrenic, Giants appear to suck but the Bengals, who'd a thunk it, present the most compelling challenge. And I feel good about defeating the Cinci at the dome.

Slightly off-topic:

Please! You're dreaming. Must be a Seahawks fan, huh? No way the Vikes' offensive line is giving up a safety to those stiffs, so...

Final Score: 68-3.

There. That's more like it.

When is winfield ever hurt? Hes a beast!! hes the best corner im the game, who gets scared when a corner is defending you cuz hes gonna knock you out lol. Hes amazing!! We need em, but only in crucial games, get em ready for the hard ones!!!

Antoine is a favorite of mine, but he is not Superman. He needs to be 100% healthy to be effective. His forte is run stopping,attacking the pass catcher, and creating fear in the prospective pass catcher. He is adequate or slightly below adequate as a cover guy. Nobody's perfect including Antoine. And did I mention smart? That may be his most important attribute.
