Sure I remember that. People know that I've been critical of Robinson, so they like to go "Peyton, what do you think of him now" every time he makes a play. It's silly, and it shows they didn't really understand my criticism of him in the first place.

So I'm not in favor of putting him in the HOF, but I think he had a great game on Sunday.

He had great coverage on the ball that was picked by Moore, he made a great break up on a 3rd down attempt to Fitz, and he really laid somebody out, can't remember who.

If he plays the way he played against Arizona every week, he will be earning every penny of his money in my opinion.

He can win me over this game if he shows me just a little more against better compitition. And not just on the stat line I had forgotten about the hit and the 3rd down deflect that is when it counts, yes it was good and a nice surprise. Call me nit picky but I didnt think his play in the Cards game was great, good but not great.

Yeah I think what you are struggling with is the fact that the Cardinals suck.

And you might be right to be thinking that way.

We are going to get some more telling info on his play on Sunday.

That was Peyton who said that, the guy who said he had an above average game. I'm not saying he was all-world or anything, but there was nothing about that game that said "average".

He was "Johnny on the spot" last week.

Yeah I think he knew it was me that said it. If not, it's really funny that he broke that out in a disagreement with me.

My subtle humor must have missed its mark with some. Lets just hope that he is above average this week I will be pulling for him to get a pic 6.

If we hold the Saints passing game to around 200 yards, and 50 .on the ground

I will be on the Robinson 22 million worth it bandwagon myself.

I am NOT a fan of Dunta by any means but I am pulling for him. He's getting paid like the absolute best, It's nice to see his head didn't get swollen by the money but talk is cheap he's gotta prove it like he said.
