Hagg brings the safe presence that coaches seem to love. He's always been labeled a guy who will never wow you and make some mad because he almost makes it look effortless because he plays a simple game. However he's "paid his dues" which is partially why I think he was given the nod over Sanheim.

He should be replacing Manning.

I think it's important we don't start ****ting on Hagg just because he's not Travis or Sam.

Agree. Hagg had a pretty good camp, and looked good in his one game stint with the big club last year. He has made great strides and earned his spot on the team.

I wouldn't be surprised if, in addition to being seen as "safe" (TM Hakstok Inc.), the other two failed to "pick up" the various Hakstokisms and systems, so he deemed them to need more seasoning until they are truly ready for the Blender. Normally in a situation like this, we would say that they are "too green" - but for North Davekota, they are simply "not green enough."

Good for Hagg, Leier and Patrick. I think Morin should be on this team and im hopeful that perhaps it would hinge on a trade of a vet.

LOL, when I first read that I thought it said "... it's important that we start ****ting on Hagg just because he's not Travis or Sam."

MR28, you're totally right. I had Sam and Travis ahead of Hagg. But I had Robert ahead of two other members of our defense, who shall remain nameless. ;)
