Not all but we saw the difference a somewhat non existent regular season Boldin made in their playoff run. What did Mike do?? He's our number 1 WR but was demoted and couldn't catch a pass or go up and defend one when needed. IMO Boldin and Rice were their keys to winning and Wallace and our lack of running game were keys to us losing.Quote:

I hold a grudge for Wallace going back to how he handled his hold out. I believe had he showed up and was part of the team he could of been a difference maker for us this season. To me he appeared to of given less than 100% in more than one game for us. Boldin exploded on their run and made Flacco look damn good in the process! But honestly I don't think Wallace fits in here, so him parting ways is the best for both parties...Quote:

but the steelers didnt handle the hold out well either, now theres hurt feelings on both sides and here we are
I agree 100% with that, I think the Mendy thing wasn't handled real well either.Quote:

I think he needs a change of scenery, i wouldnt be surprised if hes a 1000 yard rusher with AZ next year....everyone who hates mendenhall thinks hes way more useless than what is true, hes a talented back and a complete back.Quote:

Brown got the extension, and ive always been a big brown fan but that deal was a little premature and i think was meant to say **** you to wallace just a little too much, but hopefully it works out
i just hope they have a plan....and i hope that plans name is bowe or keenan allen
I'm going to say the front office handled the Wallace situation just fine.
They handle all contracts the same way, once the season starts all talks stop. Besides it was Wallace who turned down $10 mil a year contract
