[LHUCKS]

Lot of people with short memories around here. Boldin has shown he is all heart several times over.

Sanity enters the thread....

 

[3nOut]

Maybe he and Nab can get on the same team next year and share their benching stories and hatered for their respective ( soon to be former ) teams.

Da Bears? What a drastic makeover for that offense it would be with just those two pickups.

 

[switz]

apparently Boldin had some pretty bad post game comments as well. I heard them on Fox sports radion this morning from Sabin. I am looking for the link now.

This guy is a loser at life.

Right, because you know him. Boldin has given the team far more than the value of his contract, and they've treated him like crap! He played his tail off when the team sucked, and this year came back quick from having his face broken. He's always laid it all out on the field, and they refused to renegotiate with him, which means they didn't want him back. This is the first time he's caused a team disruption, and frankly, if you played your tail off and then you were barely on the field when the team finally makes the playoffs, wouldn't you be pissed?Too bad people here are only looking at one side of the story.

 

[switz]

Haley called a HORRIBLE game in the second half and almost cost us the game...Warner yelled at him, Boldin yelled at him, Fitz was yelling at him while on the field.The local media has been getting on Boldin, but any true Cards fan knows Boldin was the heart and soul of this team for several years and deserved to be on the field.I've bumped down Haley quite a bit after yesterday despite his impressive playcalling in the first half. GO CARDS!!

He needs to shut his piehole. He signed his current contract.

No question there are always two sides to every story, but stick around and celebrate the NFC championship with your teammates. That has nothing to do with how you've been treated by coaches or management.

You got Adrian Wilson crying and choked up and he has been here even longer and just as underpaid...Absolutely no excuse for Boldin's behavior.

Early rumor is Boldin for T. Suggs. Boldin will restructure and go to the Ravens where he will be the star...Suggs comes back home where he has been very vocal about wanting to play for the Cards...Ravens will have to franchise him this year...makes sense to me.GO CARDS!!

Isn't T. Suggs an unrestricted FA after this season? No need to give up Boldin for him. Just sign him and trade Boldin to somebody else for a couple draft picks. I LOVE Q and hope we can keep him, but the reality is that he no longer wants to be in AZ and we need to pay Dockett, Dansby, and A-Dub before we even sit down with Anquon.

 

[BR33ZE]

I'd love to see the Cards sack-up and suspend him for the Super Bowl. Don't even let him make the trip. Take the joy of this experience away from him if he wants to be a 'me-guy' during teh team's ultimate moment.

I love overreaction Monday.Uh, what did Boldin do that deserves suspension?

Let's not make a mountain out of a molehill or anything. Holy crap. Boldin has proven over the years to be about the least prima donna-esque WR there is. He has one break down of -whatever- and you're all ready to throw him under the bus? Not even a shred of benefit of the doubt here?

Apparently he bolted the locker room right after the game rather than celebrate going to the Super Bowl with his teammates. I gotta give that a

I'll contrast this with Leinart. While it's more than obvious that he's made his share of mistakes and hasn't lived up to his billing, at least rather than pout while watching Warner lead the team he celebrated with him after one of the touchdowns. To a certain degree it has to kind of kill you a little inside to watch someone else be the hero, but regardless of what you think of him as a player or how he acts off the field, Leinart at least showed enough as a teammate to be happy for the guy who took the job away from him.

[bryan215]

Boldin was offered the chance to sign an extension first before they dealt with Larry and he and Drew R. REFUSED and said they wanted to wait and see what Larry got. They knew Larry was going to get a huge contract because of his screwed up incentive laden rookie contract and they also knew that the Cards would probably wait to deal with Boldin given the cap situation once Larry's contract was signed. Drew R. wants to get the biggest deal for his WR even if that deal is only going to be offered by another team. So he plants the seeds with both the players and the press and tries to force a trade.

Boldin goes along with it and says the Cards lied to him, and Whiz has no relationship with him(he seems to have a great relationship with everyone else on the offense), and basically sets his mind that he'll never re-sign with the Cards again...in part because he'll never get a monster deal with the Cards due to cap reasons.

So yes Boldin has been the guts and heart...but he also has been injured a ton and isn't the same level of a receiver as a Fitz, Andre Johnson, etc are. He'll end up getting traded...probably to a ####ty team and he'll get his big contract and the Cards will make due without him. If they can improve their running game by signing a RB or drafting one and signing a good to great TE then that easily offsets the trade off of Breaston for Boldin.

Boldin doesn't have much leverage. He's signed, was offered a chance to re-sign and passed, and now the Cards have a lot of guys they have to re-sign etc. His only way to force a trade is to go the T.O. route....and Drew knows this.

I imagine Boldin isn't happy with how much love Fitz is getting cuz he wants to get the biggest contract possible once he is traded. This is good for the Cards in a sense. If Boldin is healthy...he's gonna be looking to have his best game ever in 2 weeks...Steelers better be careful about focusing to much on Fitz.

I say trade him to Washington for Chris Cooley and a pick.

 

[PatsWillWin]

What did Boldin say after the game?

 

[bicycle_seat_sniffer]

leaving the field and stadium and not being a part of the celebration says alot.

 

[Penguin]

That's not what I saw after Fitz's 2nd or 3rd TD (I believe it was his 2nd.) Everyone was jumping up and down celebrating when Fitz came off the field. Except Leinart, who was about 5 feet behind the OC and his face looked like someone just stole his puppy. He looked like he was just doing time on the sideline at that point.

I'll contrast Boldin with Matt Leinart too:If I were Matt Leinart, collecting $6.1M for riding coat tails and sitting on the bench this year, I'd smile and play along too.If I'm Boldin, a top 5 WR in the league, getting paid and treated like a top 50 WR, I'd probably be pretty pissed too. Bolding played for $2.5M this year and is as dominant as about any WR in the league. How do you think he feels watching Kevin Curtis across the field collecting $3.7M in '08? Not good. I'm impressed that Boldin didn't run by the camera giving the owner the finger when he picked up the Halas trophy.Leinart sucks.Boldin is a bad assz in the NFL.Don't ever compare these two again.

 

[Wadsworth]

Mr. Boldin, please come to Jacksonville and yell at our OC.

Some of you people are funny, none more than Mike Freeman. He left. He didn't stay and rain on everyone else parade. He didn't trash the to OC or the team to reporters while people sipped champagne. He left. Big deal. maybe he just wanted to celebrate with his family or friends. Maybe he was hurting and didn't want to risk injury in the wild after party. Or maybe he was mad, had nothing nice to say and left rather than say something he regrets later to the OC or reporters. But bottom line is the guy left saying basically nothing, that's not TO behavior.

 

[Black]

I dont think this hurts his status in the market but as a fan it really diminishes my view of him. I cant think of a rational scenario that would warrant a player to act this way. The only thing I can think of is that Boldin was wide open for a couple of plays but Haley was screaming from the sidelines to not throw it to Boldin.

??? How did you see this? How would Warner hear him? Is he yelling it into his headset as Warner is dropping back?I would think Boldin would have every reason to be jealous, esp given the contract Fitz got. But, he wasn't 100%, so the spread was not equal as it usually is.

In what scenario other than injury or family emergency is it acceptable for any player to immediately leave the field while the team is celebrating the biggest victory in their history, and then when they finally make it back to the locker room after celebrating on the field, you are just bolting out the side door, sharing in NONE of the happiness.

LOL didn't have Leinart-cam all game But it still seems that Boldin was being two much of a baby. To bad he couldn't celebrate with his teammates as while he's given a lot 2 them, they've brought a lot two the table to.-QG

I don't think he is saying that is what happened.I took at that he (VTjkru) was exaggerating some scenario that would make Boldin's behaviour acceptable.

 

[mr. furley]

I hope most of these comments are sarcasm because I'm not seeing anything that should cause people to switch from liking the guy to hating him that fast.

You have not been around here long enough.

True but its also the behavior of a player who doesn't want to be part of the team.You don't leave after winning the biggest game in history for your organization...if you as a player are really all about winning and getting to the SuperBowl. Obv right now that is not the biggest thing on Boldin's mind otherwise he would have celebrated the fact that after all his team's, and his won, hard work and effort they now have the chance to be World Champions.He wants out.

So what? So he left, big deal. The people that wanted to stay and celebrate did and good for them. He did not want to stay and I don't see how that is perceived as some major slight to his teammates.

Agree completely. There are alot of great players that will never make it to a superbowl. Enjoy it with the guys who got you there. Forget about the OC and celebrate.

Even read an interview with Kurt Warner and he was concerned enough with Boldin that he text messaged him. If it is a non-issue, why was Warner concerned?

Warner, who is close with Boldin, was concerned enough Sunday night to text him and ask if everything was cool. “I’m good,” Boldin responded

[FantasyTrader]

I've always loved Boldin as a player. He always seemed tough, focused & hard nosed at a position usually filled by prima donnas. I thought even more highly of him when he bounced back so quickly after the blow he took during the Jets/Cards game.Losing it in the heat of battle is one thing, BUT it's his behavior after the game that has left me shocked and disappointed.

He was probably embarassed with what took place during the game. I am sure he felt bad and a bit shameful for his actions. I am sure all things will be fine, he just needed some time to himself after having an out of character moment. Maybe he thought it was out of line to celebrate and be joyful after he had just been in a fight with his OC. Boldin has been one of the best WR's in the game and has remained very loyal to Arizona and his teammates and until we know more or perhaps he continues to undermine a OC I don't think there is any reason to worry.

I could buy that explanation if it weren't for his last statement in the interviewoes he want to stay in Arizona?"Next question."I would expect a different response to that question if he ducked out because he was embarrassed of his own actions.

Who is the etc.? Boldin is a top-5 NFL WR... heck, IMO he's better than AJ, especially if you want to argue injuries. Who are you going to stack up against him? TO? Calvin Johnson? and the two prior mentioned? What "level" of WR do you think he is??

Says you. Truth is you don't really know what the hell was going on between Boldin and the OC, you can only guess. A la TO, Boldin could have chosen to stick around and air his dirty laundry in the media, but he didn't. Given the likelihood that he may have said something he'd regret later, perhaps he decided that leaving would be taking the high road. Who knows? We sure as hell don't and neither do the talking heads on tv.
