It's literally IMPOSSIBLE to sit there and say Routt was good by any means.

You CANNOT be dead last in yards per cover snap and be remotely considered to be good.

Was it unfair to cut him? Probably.

He's still not a good player.

By that logic explain Cassel, Quinn, TJ, Lewis, O'Connel, Winston, Hillis, etc...not being cut?

Was Routt playing great? No, was he the issue? No he wasn't the worst player on the team by a long shot. He wasn't.

I agree completely. He was cut because of Patriot Way strongarm bullshit tactics.

But to sit here and say he was a good player is ridiculous.

This is the equivalent of cutting Eric Warfield.

He's a salesman selling a product. What else is he supposed to say?

[Pasta Little Brioni]

Probably go to Baltimore and dance with Pollard

[Marcellus]

I said it before and I will say it again, Routt probably feels liek he has been paroled. He can wait and see what teams are interested and pick a contender and make his $ still.

We did him a huge favor really.

In related news the Cowboy's have Carr playing safety.

IRVING, Texas -- Only one Cowboys player had more defensive snaps in Sunday's game against Tampa Bay than the 57 Brandon Carr picked up at cornerback/free safety. Inside linebacker Sean Lee played 60 snaps.

Carr started the game at free safety, a move made last week in practice in anticipation of the expected deep throws Tampa Bay was going to attempt and an injury to free safety Gerald Sensabaugh.

And when strong safety Fece Church was lost in the second half to a season-ending Achilles injury, Carr's time at safety was just as valuable.

Carr said he hasn't spoken to the coaches about a full-time spot at safety, but his openness about moving was considered invaluable for a team in desperate need for secondary help.

Carr said he would play the position again if needed against the Chicago Bears on Monday night at Cowboys Stadium.

"It's still an ongoing discussion, I guess," Carr said Monday at Valley Ranch. "I just told them where they need me, duty calls and I'll be available. I'm going to try my best to get the job done and it's still early in the week."

Moving Carr to free safety was an interesting decision, but it backed up what defensive coordinator Rob Ryan said to team owner/general manager Jerry Jones this summer: He planned on getting Mike Jenkins onto the field at cornerback. Carr's size -- 6-foot, 210 pounds -- and coverage skills give him the ability to make plays deep and close to the line of scrimmage by jamming receivers. While Jenkins played well against Tampa Bay in his second game back from offseason shoulder surgery, prompting coach Jason Garrett to say Jenkins played with a smile on his face, Carr was just as effective.

He had one pass breakup in the game but his coverage on various receivers including Vincent Jackson, Tampa's big play threat, didn't go unnoticed.

"I don't find it odd, it's all about the team right now," Carr said. "I feel like we got corners behind me that can get the job done. We have four corners that can play with any team in the NFL right now, and for us to be on the field at the same time and matchup and do good things and give teams different, we can be a handful (on) other teams."

so Carr could play FS too.

and we let this guy go despite all our safety troubles prior to Berry.

and with Berry for that matter lol

you could have had

CB - Flowers
SS - Berry
FS - Carr
CB - Routt

a man can dream

Michael Lombardi doesn't know what tape Pioli was looking at when he signed Routt.

Free agent CB Stanford Routt is drawing interest from the Dolphins, Cardinals, and Lions.
Routt cleared waivers after being cut by the Chiefs on Monday. The 29-year-old allowed a dreadful 64.1 completion percentage, 491 yards, and three touchdowns in seven games as Kansas City's right corner this year, according to Pro Football Focus. Quarterbacks had an astronomical 111.9 rating throwing at Routt. Miami lost Richard Marshall (back) to injured reserve, Arizona has employed a rotation opposite Patrick Peterson, and Detroit's secondary has been ravaged by injuries. Routt should be able to find a job before season's end.
