JMF2006 Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 How does this new fact explain that there hasn't been a rookie starting for a super bowl champion in 10+ years? Wasn't Butler the NE SB hero a rookie CB playing nickle? Thats starting if your top 3 at CB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPS Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 First time I've heard Zay interview. Smart, well-spoken young man. Picking smart young men over illiterates bodes well for building a winning "team" in the long run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vincec Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 (edited) Joe Thuney started all 19 games for New England at LG last season. Well there you go. I knew the day would eventually come when I made a mistake. Wasn't Butler the NE SB hero a rookie CB playing nickle? Thats starting if your top 3 at CB. Agree.

vincec Posted May 13, 2017 Share Posted May 13, 2017 It's just an observation that Parcells says a lot of stuff. Do you disagree that having to start rookies is not as good as having veterans? Or do you just not like how it might apply to the Bills this season if true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFan17 Posted May 14, 2017 Share Posted May 14, 2017 (edited) How does this new fact explain that there hasn't been a rookie starting for a super bowl champion in 10+ years?Looks like others covered more recently so... Ravens in 2013- Osemele started at RT, Upshaw started nine games played in all 16 and Justin Tucker was their starting kicker. Packers in 2011-Bulaga started at RT, Zombo started eight games playing in 13, and their punter Masthay. Should I keep going?
