He's one of my favorite players but I'm thinking enough is enough

I agree, mlb. Hey, Mr. Rice, hang up those spikes.

Fans get upset when an athlete retires still in his prime, and they get upset when an athlete hangs on too long. If they guy can still play (which I don't think he would continue doing if he knew he couldn't hack it) who are we to say when he should retire?

Like I said....I'm a Jerry Rice fan but I'm not sure he can hack it anymore. I think it's pretty evident in his lack of playing time......and a side note, he's competing for 4th on the depth chart......not a ringing endorsement for continuing, IMO

Take a look at his stats from the Raiders super bowl year and tell me he can't hack it. 90 catches, 1200 yards, that was in 2002--not too bad for an old man. Then the Raiders began phasing him out of the offense. He's not what he was 3 years ago, but, I wouldn't bet against him.
