a true pro - part of the great Redskins team under coach Gibbs: from wiki (not mentioned - his son would carry his huge helmet off the field for home games)... the term legend applies: George Allen gave the Cardinals two first-round draft picks and a second-rounder for the right to Butz.[4] In 1975 Butz was granted free agency due to a mistake in his contract that he signed as a rookie in 1973. Allen quickly signed him, but the NFL ruled that the Redskins had to pay the Cardinals 2 first-round picks (1977 & 1978) and a second-round pick (1979).[5] Butz then played for the Washington Redskins for 14 years, where he had three Super Bowl appearances. He ranks third in franchise history in sacks (59.5).[4] He was a one-time Pro Bowler in 1983 in a season in which he got eleven sacks, a career-best.[6] He only missed four games in his entire 16-year career.[1] Butz was among the largest players in the NFL when he played standing 6'8" and routinely weighing around 300 pounds.[7] At the victory parade following the Redskins win in Super Bowl XXII, Butz famously shouted to the crowd, "We came, we saw, we kicked their butz."[8] In October 1987, Butz famously checked himself out of the hospital to play in the Redskins' game against the New York Jets. Despite having dropped from 313 to 287 pounds due to the illness and feeling dizzy in the second half, Butz made a game-saving sack of Ken O'Brien to stop a Jets' drive late in the game and was awarded the game ball. After the game, he checked himself back into the hospital where he remained until the following Wednesday.[9][10] Butz announced his retirement from the NFL at age 38 in May 1989. He appeared in 216 NFL games, 191 as a starter, from 1973 to 1988.[11] He tallied 64 sacks in his career.[12] When he retired, he was the oldest starting player in the NFL.[13] Butz was selected to the NFL 1980s All-Decade Team and was named one of the 70 Greatest Redskins.[14]

I love the NFL draft and all its pre-draft hype analysis, combine, stats, mock drafts, opinions, Mel Kiper, etc...and teams still freaking miss...see qb draft of 2018... oh...and the bust...self-explanatory

How did Allen not dominate in college?
First Round Bust replied to C.Biscuit97's topic in The Stadium Wall
besides the limitations of talent and coaching at Wyo, Josh worked hard to improve his game each and every year... besides his supreme athleticism (during his first game, preseason home against Panthers his first pass was a bomb that went 65 yards, then he danced around and ran for good yardage with the 3rd-4th stringers) his desire to win and sacrifice his body to make a play, his tremendous drive to improve by going to qb coaching camps (Jesse Palmer multiple times), years of working with good NFL coord-coaches, off-season work with WRs, big game experience, he is the undenied leader of the team not just the offense, he makes others better (Diggs for example)...no Josh no Von...nobody ever has a bad word to say about Josh other than the sports columnists who nitpick his stats or style...on his way to the Hall of Fame for sure and some rings hopefully -

Who does Tre take over for when he returns?
First Round Bust replied to JerseyBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
when Tre comes back to play likely will be phased-in as game shape, staminia will be ramping-up over time, so likely a rotation of sorts (hopefully) ? If so Jackson most likely flip-flopping between moreso than the rook I assume -
YAC came up for discussion with Sal on WGR radio just this morning, mentioned and dwelled on the fact that YAC includes yards gained from behind LoS, which pads the league-leader (a RB - Austin Ekeler - 6-49 - 1 TD last game) stats somewhat, approx 50 yards IIRC ? so if a RB has a phat YAC factor this into the equation somewhat... https://scores.nbcsports.com/fb/leaders.asp?type=Receiving&range=NFL&rank=231

Davis Webb to Start for the Giants on Sunday
First Round Bust replied to BisonMan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Klein's best was last season home against Seattle...too slow, too expensive, wrong-side of 30, 3rd lb phased-out due to exclusive nickel package, etc...thanks for your service... -

Injuries from Week #4 Ravens Game?
First Round Bust replied to ColoradoBills's topic in The Stadium Wall
axe and ye shall receive...some good news...week 4 is almost done...so Trey and Ike B can be hopefully activated and hopefully start practicing which usually requires at least two weeks maybe be under McD. I think each team gets eight-8-ocho in-season IR moves like these...Rhodes (cb) mid-season and Crowder (late season) are possible down the road as well -
Who’s the Wookiee sitting next to Dorsey??
First Round Bust replied to BringBackFergy's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would love to take or hide Dorsey's pens when he gets up to take leak at half-time and watch him loose his sheep...I bet would happen if they are switched or re-arranged as well..post-game relief-humor after spending first-half imitating Dorsey's tirade...lets go Buffalo -

Who are the best coaches in NFL History?
First Round Bust replied to Chaos's topic in The Stadium Wall
on my top list I would include Halas, Lambeau in the top 10 next level off the top of my head - not in order Andy Reid - regular season winning since 1999 - 5th best win % in histiry- coaching tree -1 super bowl win Tom Flores - 2 super bowl wins - 12 season but only 97-87 so at the bottom of the top Mike Shanahan - 2 super bowl wins, coaching tree Jimmy Johnson - 2 super bowls - 80-64 record Mike Tomlin - 1 super bowl win, 13 non-loosing seasons - 133-74 record George Seifert - 2 super bowl wins - 98-30 in SF John Harbaugh - 148-96 (. 607) - 1 loosing season in 13 years - 1 super bowl win Pete Carroll - 152–104–1 (.593) - 1 super bowl win Paul Holmgren - 1 super bowl win, coaching tree, Tom Coughlin - 2 super bowl win over Brady and coach Dungy and Bill Cowher - 1 super bowl - 66 and 62 percent win percent Sean Payton 1 super bowl, 63 win percent, next coach of the Cowboys ? zero super bowls: Marty Schot, Dan Reeves, Marv Levy as well interesting that George Allen has a winning percent of 72% - no super bowls - the future is now - Over the Hiil gang -
this analysis is all scheme-based and passive-aggressive about Josh and cat-mouse play-calling of the coords, all of which the OL which has a vote in and unfort had an overall weak performance based on quality of play, reserves playing, and some playing out of position, not to mention the heat-humid-fatigue factor esp for the left-side as Dawkins and Saffold managed to play the entire game...incredible that we could have won the game as we left over 20+ points on the field, including that pass to Isaiah that coulda-shoulda won the effing game...we are healthier overall this week which was a factor going into the game as well, we have to get a better performance from the OL, they are our lowest rated players so far, and Saffold so far has been subpar and bears monitoring and hopefully not concern.

WGR radio had a physican assistant with neuro experience call-in today..says you dont have to hit your head on the ground as the whiplash effect would cause Tua brain to move and make contact with a solid...entirely possible a minor concussion was masked in and of itself with the back injury being the focus, if so two concussions...
