"I like Shaun Rogers, and I think you ask anybody on our team from the head coach down, they all say the same thing," Millen said. "They all like Shaun. They like Shaun as a guy. They love his skill level, his abilities, all that stuff. "But you're asking everybody to do the same things, and sometimes that doesn't happen." What about releasing running back Kevin Jones, who is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament? "Kevin Jones is a good football player, and he'll play well," Millen said. "He's not healthy right now."</div> Two thoughts: RE: Shaun Rogers - Huh? I've read his comment four times and I still don't understand it. RE: Kevin Jones - If you release a player and you know he's hurt, don't you have to pay an injury settlement? Did the Lions do that?
Shaun is a good guy, but when you spend half the game sitting on the bench with a oxygen mask on, something aint right.
Shaun Rogers is the best DT in football when he wants to play....but the guy takes too many plays off and his attitude sucks....hes the kind of player that drives a position coach to madness

And about Kevin Jones Well the reason why he is allways hurt is becouse he is allways getting tackled. He is allways getting tackled becouse we dont have a O-Line, We dont have a O-Line becouse someone keeps drafting WR's in the first round.
