Tommy Kelly- gentleman, statesman

Quote from Kelly today about the defensive strategy after Palmer went down:
Kelly says, "You take our guy out, we're going to go and try to take your guy out. We're not out to hurt someone, but when that happens ..."

Not sure how to take this, but overall I wouldn't mind seeing him gone in a week.

I agree...... with Kelly. He's simply stating they're going to do everything they can to put HARD hits on Cam. Its proven fact that people get hurt when hit hard.

I know its hard for some of you non sport playing football fans out there to comprehend statements like this.

Finally some competitiveness out of a Raider player. I welcome the fire. Maybe if the rest of the team felt the same we'd won a few more games this season.

I agree with what he said, but I disagree with him saying it out loud.

Right or wrong with the way bountygate was blown out of proportion probally not the wisest thing to say right now.

**HOFBoundBrown** · 12-23-2012, 05:47 PM

Not because of this thread, but Kelly needs to be shown the door. This guy has no self-control.

**POKE** · 12-23-2012, 05:51 PM

Tommy Kelly is complete dogsh_t. Period.

Get the bum outta here asap.

So unless his quarterback takes it to the ribs, he has no real motivation for getting to the quarterback? I thought that was what those millions were for.

I HAVE NO ISSUES WHAT TOMMY SAID, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH IT, ACTUALLY! And I don't even really care for the guy (because of his failure to convert great potential), Tommy is to put it in Warren Sapps words, LAZY.

THE QB MUST GO DOWN, AND HE MUST GO DOWN HARD. For all you who don't like it, or feel that's not the way for us to play, because of some "culture change," or "discipline virtue," you need to become of a fan of another sport........

Wasn't it called on Bryant? But either way, I agree. Although the dancing was what started the whole mess.

Only thing I disagree with Kelly about is reacting after our Qb went down!

I was listening to the game on the radio, it was the Panthers broadcast. They were complaining about the calls on both teams. They said both teams were getting shafted and this was the worst officiated game they'd seen.
