Perhaps they wanted him there to tutor Brown. Fine, but he still was a poor LT at that point. Nothing wrong with being happy that the team is making good personnel decisions. That's all this thread was about. Teams don't win playoff games with tackles playing at the level Salaam has played the past 2 seasons.

Plenty of teams win playoff games with a backup the level of Salaam, and that's what he was last year.
Either way I face a quandary here, Alex Gibbs' o-line knowledge vs. Dalemurphy's football omnipotence. Kind of like ditka vs. a hurricane. Too close to call. I guess I just have to defer to your brilliance again.
