[Chargers] Chargers CB Antonio Cromartie Almost Sat Out Most Of '08

Chargers CB Antonio Cromartie said he considered calling it a season after suffering a fractured hip in Week 1 of last season. Cromartie said he couldn't turn and break on the ball the way he's accustomed to doing. "I did a couple of times," Cromartie said. "Just sitting out the rest of the season or sitting out until I was capable to play at 100 percent."

he'll be back to form this year, everyone will be back on the wagon

I hope he's full speed.

I want the best competition for my team.

It will only make us better.

The fact he can play 15 games with a broken hip and still be better than most of the corners in the league is a show of how talented he is.

Cromartie should be a top corner again, playing with a fractured hip is pretty crazy...I was pretty down on him laast year, but he obviously had good reason for not playing up to par.

This is why I laugh when people question the Chargers as the favorites in the west. He would have been better even with the broken hip if lights-out wasn't hurt. Now that he will be back that defense will be better, especially with English rushing opposite of Merriman.

[Harvs01]

The Chargers are easily the favorite in the west without a doubt, and with Merriman back I expect their defense to be a force again

[Jupap7]

With the defense back, Cromartie shape, Merriman too ...
They will not reproduce hards loss like last year Panthers, Broncos (Saints) and the weaky start.

I call bullshit. Cromartie is the most over rated schmuck in football.
