If he's that good some NFL team will sign him.
In the meantime he needs to file the appropriate forms with the federal department of "Is this where I go to get my reputation back?"

It's a "football" helmet; that is, a helmet made from a football.

You have to be 80+to have watched motley with any real memory lol
you would’ve had to been 10 in 1946 lol
I am old but not that old. I have only seen Motley on film, not in person.
I do remember seeing the Colts' HB Buddy Young beat a race horse in a 50 yard dash! I think it was a Colts' preseason game in the 1950s.
Here's an interesting question: Who broke the color barrier in professional sports?
Not Jackie Robinson. Several black players played in the NFL (including Motley and Woody Strode who played the black gladiator in Spartacus (1960) before Robinson broke the color barrier in professional baseball.
Then there is Fritz Pollard who beoke the NFL color barrier before there was a color barrier. He was one of the first black RBs and the first black head coach, both in 1921.

Sanders was a delight to watch. He could cut on a dime and leave you 9 cents.
Marion Motley was Jim Brown before Jim Brown was Jim Brown.
OJ, Cookie, Thurman -- all excellent in their different ways.

He looks like a low-rent gigolo.

Traditional is a no-brainer for Buffalo. It's a blue-collar Joe Six-pack town. Can you see the Bills in Seattle neon green?

It's pretty shrewd. Denying the Jets an OT, makes them easier for the Patriots to play.

Kelce had back problems at the end of last year.

According to nfldraftbuzz he's 504 inches tall... Which makes him a mountain of a man at just over 42 feet tall.

I think he lied about his height.

wow what a unfunny attempt to be funny. Got any more gut busters in your bag buddy?the screen name checks out at least. Creating a login on this board should come with an AARP card at this point.
you do know players in the past have worn “0” and “00” right?
Now, now, simmer down young wippersnapper.
Imagine: imaginary numbers.
I do remember Jim Otto, the Raiders' center

Oliver os a three technique DT. Daquan Jones is a one technique DT. They are not interchangeable.
These links give an overview of their different roles.

Keep in mind that Oliver played hurt for much of this year.

King Henry:

If you listen to the podcast, the caster gives a well reasoned and nuanced evaluation of Dorsey's season. In other words, he's out of touch with this board.
Seriously, the stats he quotes show that Dorsey did as well as Daboll the previous year and Dorsey had to deal with a wounded Josh.

Don't forget the Bisons' Luke Easter and his Easter Eggs over the scoreboard at Offermann Stadium
Some of his homeruns still haven't come down.

But I refuse to believe that a QB like JA only gets one shot where everything aligns properly.
Dan Marino played for 17 years.
He went to the Superbowl in his 2d year and lost.
He never returned.

It's a bad case of disappointed expectations.
During the drought people expected the team to lose so when they did, expectations were fulfilled.
This year, people expected the Superbowl. When that didn't happen people were left disappointed and angry.
This, too, shall pass.
