Hello all!

I am one of many who have been advocating for Boykin to get on the field. As I said, I have watched his whole career in Philly. He has outstanding atheleticizm and leaping ability, allowing him to go against bigger receivers. He has good cover skills with fluid hips, that help him stay with receivers out of their breaks. He also has exceptional ball skils, playing the ball with pass breakups and interceptions.

No, he's not Rod Woodson or Deion Sanders, but he's clearly the best corner on the roster. With all that being said, it's now time to accept the fact the he's not going to see the field. There are several reasons why.

Firstly, Boykin approached the coaches in regard to his lack of playing time. I don't see a problem with this, and I feel he has every right to ask why. However, in the minds of our coaches, that makes you a problem child and lands you in the doghouse never to get out.

Secondly, Antwon Blake. Blake is Tomlin's love child. He likes him on a personal level. It has nothing to do with business, or skillset but is stricktly personal. Cockrell got on the field, but they had no choice due to Cortez's knee and Boykin's groin at the time.

This coaching staff has a next man up mentality due to the longevity of players that have been on the team. They only make a true change with guys only if they are blatantly struggling as Cortez was last year. So for the most part, performance has nothing to do with anything, but your tenure with the team does.

Blake is merely being rewarded for being the next man up with team tenure. He's being rewarded for working hard on special teams with bone jarring hits and an intense attitude. As I said, Tomlin likes him personally. He likes that he worked hard, hits hard, and plays with intensity during his tenure here, so therefore he's rewarding him to start.

The problem is, Blake doesn't pass the eye test at this position, and Tomlin turns a blind eye to it for personal reasons. We all know that Blake is a special teams player. We all know that he can't cover and has no ball skills.

It's ok to reward a player for working hard during their tenure. The thing is that hard work doesn't always pass the test. There are many undrafted free agents that have worked extremely hard, but are not on an NFL Roster. Rewarding a player a starting position for hard work and longer team tenure is the wrong thing to do, when you traded for a player that is better qualified for the job.

So now I feel we need to end the posts on Boykin because fact is, we're not going to see him. Despite how we feel about it, it's not going to change, and is frustrating as it is, it's starting to be more frustrating seeing the posts about Boykin, because our coaches won't get a clue.

Uhh yeah,

I thought this was a MESSAGE BOARD!!!

So it's a MESSAGE is it NOT?
So if you we running for Office and YOUR MESSAGE is NO WAR and NO NEW TAXES, do you say NOTHIING?

Then if you decide to speak the message, do you not elaberate to the public why you feel the message is valid? That's what I did, elaborate with my message. I wanted to let those who supported Boykin that I am with them on this and not just send the message only, without explanation which would be offensive to some.

It's YOUR lack of common sense and intelligence that is in question!

Did you really expect any other reaction? Seriously?

Our secondary is still questionable. Our brain truss traded for a veteran CB. All of a sudden, said veteran CB can't play? There was a report of a possible injury, fine, but did not seem too serious. One of the only plays where he was on the field, he bats away a pass in the end zone.

Expecting us to not post about said player is way too much to ask. Until there is a reasonable explanation from the Steelers, there will remain wide spread speculation as to why Brandon Boykin is not on the field.

My man, So Bush Sr. didn't ask us to read his lips.. no new taxes and did just that? G.W. Bush didn't start a war blaming 911 on Hussein when he knew it was Bin Laden, but had a Vendetta for Hussein for vengence for his father, putting American lives at risk?

Look, what I was trying to say in this post is despite our want for Boykin in the lineup, the front office just isn't going to do it. I want him in there as well but there's nothing I can do.

If you want to start a new thread on Boykin, feel free, because despite my post, it's more likely that I will be there to vent with you.

Better yet, why can't you stick to the topic instead of trolling and showing up with one line garbage? You don't show up to discuss topics.

I mentioned earlier that Boink was too confident for the staff and if he didn't take the posture of licking their shoes, they won't give him playing time.
