Maybe it's a good sign that people are negative about Amobe. Maybe it means there's not much else to complain about right now.

I've been disappointed with Okoye and I have wondered about his commitment, especially since he as much as admitted he didn't work hard in the off season last year. When we drafted him I was expecting a super-committed DT. There aren't really a lot of those around, so maybe I was expecting too much.

That being said, I have an open mind about him right now. I'm not going to take a shot at him just because he has knee issues. I going to give him a break and see if his supposed new-found commitment and a new scheme make a difference. Time will tell.
