He could be a lot more consistent. If you take away the 2 TDs, he's averaging a very ordinary 24 yards per return. I believe it was the Tampa game where his running out of bounds to avoid contact on kick returns was absolutley ridiculous.
Ginn is a great kick returner...I realize they don't count but there were what four kicks returned for touchdowns his rookie season that were called back for stupid penalties?
If not for stupid mistakes by other people he'd be regarded as the most dangerous kick retruner in the game today.
Now, if he could just work on some solid receiver skills...
As for Roth... I wish him well, just not against us.

It looked like Roth and his agent were playing games with the Dolphins, and Parcells just does not play. Sparano would have been fine with him on the team but you can't jerk Parcells around. And it looks like he was seeking a big payday and thought (still thinks) he's better than he is. In reality, he's good against the run but so are lots of other linebackers in this league, and more waiting in the draft. Frankly, knowing his limited talent, it would have pissed me off if I read about some ridiculous fat contract next year. And then we'd all expect more of him and rag on him when he didn't perform. He would have been a nice player to keep on the roster, but it didn't work out that way. Now he's bragging he'll be the best with the Browns - sounds like we made the right move.
