DarthICE Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Mandatory knee braces are ingenious. I never trusted the surface since they switched it over to nexTurf, or whatever it is now. Too many weird injuries. Field turf is safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WotAGuy Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 The O line needs more than knee braces. I suggest some steroids instead. More SQUATS!!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nucci Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Jim Kelly wore his braces proudly. Our O-linemen can too. I recall one play of Jim scrambling and putting the moves on a blitzing linebacker while he wore his servos and wow was it embarrassing for that LB. Jim even got a first down on the play. So our O-linemen should still be nimble enough to make plays. After a knee injury but not before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love Jim Kelly and think he was one of the greatest and toughest qb's that ever lived, and remember the time he damn near (or actually did) break a linebackers leg after he intercepted one of his passes...but seeing him "put a move and scramble" would be a pretty rare occassion. I remember some halfback imitating Chris Berman when Kelly ran three yards for a touchdown.."He's at the three...he's at the two...he could go ALL THE WAY." Oh I wish Jim were still playing....
