  1. IMO, their is nothing odd about not dignifying a remark by commenting on it.
  2. Spread is much like the KGun? Can’t agree with that.
  3. He took two that I can remember. The cheap shot to his head on the unnecessary roughness in the first half and the choking tackle that slammed his head to the ground and caused the concussion. Jack came close to a cheapy as well when he pulled on his helmet during a tackle.
  4. Bang the Drum Slowly, Godfather 2, Raging Bull
  5. Yeah, the LB on the Jest. I admit to not having watched a ton of him over the years and I could be way out of line, but he always struck me as a solid player with athletic skills. I believe he's playing the middle since Harris left and he seems to make a lot of tackles whenever I watch him. Seems better than Brown anyway.
  6. I thought he was fast, at least he was coming out of college. Seems to have put together a nice season in his contract year.
  7. Any chance to grab Demario Davis? Seems like the type of athlete McBeane prefers.
  8. No hindsight? Really? If that play works as designed are we having this discussion and are you still insisting the play sucked? The play sucked because of the lack of execution and and unnecessary OPI call. It was perfectly reasonable to give your QB an option down there, depending on what he saw from the defense. Indeed, that's what you'd expect in today's league. Hell, if we'd run it up the gut and it got stuffed for no gain, a loss, or a lost fumble, we'd be decrying the fact that TT should have seen Benjamin isolated in man coverage and all the "that's why we got him for our red zone offense" cries would be taking over today instead. Anyway, this discussion is exhausted. Nothing more to discuss on the issue as it's been hammered seven ways to Sunday already.
  9. We will need to add a couple dominant front seven pieces before I believe any one of those QBs can get us there. None of them are what I consider the type of QB that puts a team on his back and makes everyone else around them better. But with a dominant defense, a truly dominant defense, decent, mistake-free QB play can take you far.
  10. Again, not interested in the Monday morning QBing aspect of the Benjamin play; only the play itself. As I said earlier, hindsight says the play was wrong because is failed. But that's too easy. We can agree to disagree on Dennison's strategy regarding his last series of the half.
  11. There is no inconsistency at all. It is apples and oranges in terms of game situations.
  12. All due respect, I'd have to see the actual statistical breakdown of this claim. What is the actual completion percentage of pass attempts on first and goal from the one vs. single coverage with a goal line defense? If it's even just 51%, your argument is moot. Like I said, I'm not interested in the Monday morning QBing analysis of that play. That's just too easy; it failed so it was wrong. I'm interested in the play itself. It was right to have an option in that situation and TT saw what he had to see for him to choose pass. Execution and outcome is another debate entirely. And I suspect if that offensive pass interference isn't called, and it shouldn't have been, then nobody is having this conversation. I agree. While I can respect the idea of being aggressive and wanting more points, that field position against that defense on the road dictated using clock. Dennison screwed the pooch there.
  13. Disclaimer: I don't wish to wade into the pool of 20/20 hindsight, Monday morning QBing. I'm just looking at that play for what it was. It was smart to have an option built in on that play. And I don't blame TT for his decision given what he saw at the LOS. A loaded box and single coverage vs. your 6'6" 245 lb. wide out is what he had to see and he did. If that's a back shoulder throw, it's an easy six vs the more difficult fade vs. a premier CB. What made that play questionable at all, is the interference that never should have been called. There is always contact between receivers and defenders and the ref should have let them play because Benjamin's contact didn't prevent Ramsey from making a play on the ball. Should have been a simple incomplete pass and 2nd and goal from the one.
  14. I doubt it. TT wasn’t up to the task today, regardless.
  15. Pass to score, run to win. An old cliche, but one that often holds true.
  16. His value is whatever a team is willing to sign him for. Hard to predict.
  17. Jeez, that’s a toughy. Can I get one for each side of the ball? If not, I gotta go with Kelly.
