Alstott was screwed coming out of high school. There is a quote from him
about how no school wanted to recruit him at tailback, just at fullback.
technically Purdue recruited him to play fullback..... but they did use him as both a rusher and
blocker, but he was still labeled a...
but...but....but....Coaches ALWAYS play the best talent because they want to win games so they don't lose their jobs :)
Zook has a record of 28-45. Last year was only his second winning season at Illinois for the 6 years hes been there...if you really want to call 7-6 a winning season. 4th in...
Yeah they do this every year. Anthony Castonzo is clearly the best tackle in the draft. Happened last year when Bulaga was clearly the best prospect, then guys like Trent Williams went higher, Williams went top 5, gave up 11.5 sacks 3 holds, 3 false starts in 13 games started out of 14. Bulaga...
Amendola replaced? lol. How many kick returners are a threat to score every time they touch the ball? Only two guys had 3 touchdowns, Jacoby Ford and Leon Washington. Coincidentally both have 3 fumbles on returns so I guess they have just as much of a chance of losing the ball. Only two more had...
interesting prospect. Kurt Adams from Harding. Ran a 4.36 and won State in the 200 m in high school. Played in a spread offense for his first two years in college and then they switched to triple option so not as much throwing of course. BTW he is 6'5 200 pounds. A little on the thin side for...
Yes they did this because Jordy Nelson is a true number 1 receiver. Big, fast and physical and they are scared of that. They want us to think white receivers can only be slot receivers. Dwfs don't believe what they see, because they aren't paying attention, they buy into whatever the announcers...
I dont know, it would be nice to see him on a 4-3 team, I think his stats would look better playing DE in the 4-3, he has the athleticism to play either side even though he is 292 pounds. Mario Williams weighs more than him, and Peppers is only 8 pounds lighter. They are just trying to switch...
yeah i don't get it. If people think Jordy has sup par hands they should watch some college footage. He made Freeman, after he went to the NFL Freeman's stats dropped significantly. The balls were hard to catch, some almost impossible, but still called drops. Most NFL receivers would have missed...
His catch rate was lower, Rodgers didn't throw to him as much because the more targets the lower his catch rate wouldve been, and his drops were easier catches. Hard to argue with Rodgers being the MVP, but Nelson was the guy that kept the chains moving, it could be argued either way. Without...
he deserevs it, hes the one that kept the drives going, even if he did have a few drops. The announcers replaying and talking about every target he didn't catch hurts his chances. Rodgers should definetly get it if Nelson doesn't. Winning with basically no running game (which is why Jordy was so...
Aikman whining about how a flag should be called, he eventually retracted it after seeing it in slow motion, but there is no question that dwfs will argue about it now.
GREEN BAY WON! Jordy Nelson was the leading receiver with 140 yards on 9 catches! 15.6 ypc and 1 td, 60 percent catch rate...
Apparently whoever is assigned to Swain can't cover him as well, at least legally, but no one gave the memo to the refs that holding the receiver pretty much the entire route is against the rules, even if he is an unknown white receiver. He missed a key catch earlier, and the announcers gave him...
Its for the best, that way hes less likely to go into the locker room whining about not enough targets, even though he has 5 targets, 1 less than Nelson.
That was a catch Jordy Nelson can make. Most receivers aren't Jordy Nelson. I have seen him make some catches that seemed impossible, but of course they replay it over and over. No other receiver on the team would have had that and the announcers wouldnt have mentioned it. Even if it was...
Wasn't sure to make a new thread, but Jordy Nelson just caught the first touchdown in this year's Superbowl, a 29 yard reception.
Doug Legursky has had no problem with the sumo Raji. Ridiculous that this was talked about at least 100 times on ESPN leading up to the game.

That sounds like the argument for all of the potential "great" (black) heavyweights being in the NBA/NFL. There are some good poly players, but none that have any particular skillset that makes them stand out. There are not faster than whites, and not stronger than whites, on average. The...
He was accused of sexually assaulting a 19 year old girl, arrested but the charges were dropped. He was temporarily suspended while the investigation was going on. Its hard to find any details on what happened except that he was arrested outside of an apartment complex.
Here is something I...
Mike Hass, David Ball, Eric Peterman.....If his only choice was the Bears, he shouldve stayed in Canada, he had a good thing going on. If he is given a REAL chance he will put up great numbers in the NFL.

At home because of the weather, things are closed. I forgot how ridiculous Sportscenter is. Skip Bayless is ripping into Big Ben for going to a piano bar on a Tuesday and getting in before curfew. I guess hes not supposed to have a life now. Skip said "he was just suspended for 4 games earlier...
