LabattBlue Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 "When you've got two guys that are two feet from each other that the combined weight is almost 800,000 pounds then you're not going to have a lot of time," said McCown of Adams and Pat Williams. "Those guys, a lot of times you can't just block those guys with one lineman. It takes two or three guys to block those two guys and that frees up a linebacker to come on a blitz and then we can't pick him up. They had a great scheme for us."

LabattBlue Posted December 13, 2004 Author Share Posted December 13, 2004 actually i think the quote was 800 to 1000 pounds 158811[/snapback] Must have been a misprint in the online paper I was reading. 800,000 was a lot funnier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alaska Darin Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 It was actually a loose translation that was interpreted by the reporter. He actually said: "May I now mommy face dog patch?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromoTheRobot Posted December 13, 2004 Share Posted December 13, 2004 When Sam Adams slid over McCown on that sack, he must have felt like he was being run over by a road grader! That HAD TO HURT! PTR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An OL line that has players able to take on our front two one-on-one or of high enough quality that they can direct their double-coverage blocks or 1-1/2 coverage with the second guy doing at least a chip block to cover Adams and Williams. The ClevelandOL has been hit with injuries to starters like Tucker and poor drafting and FA wprk as they devoted too many resources and cap rooms to the QB position and not enough to the offensive trenches/ 2. RBs who presented a serious run threat or at least can make goof blitz pick-u[s to give the QB some time. Again injuries to more talented runners like Suggs and some questionable FA work has left them without the horses, 3. QBs above the Losman level of learning the game- McCown simply is not a good enough player once the opponent has some tape on him and players are preparaing to exploit him (two pieces which were not there when he did well last week. Even worse though he has a rookie brain like JP he does not have Losman's athleticism to get himself out of trouble. Like Robidkie said it was like men and boys out there. Even great coches are not going to coach boys to take out the Bills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
