Dennis in NC Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 From the article about Daimon Shelton: “Rock’s like a guard back there. Rock’s been laying guys out,” right guard Chris Villarrial explained. “I played with Rock in Chicago and he’s playing some of the best football I’ve seen him play. If he keeps that up I think he’ll be a Pro Bowler this year.” That’s the ultimate compliment from a guy who knows a thing or two about blocking. How great to have a blocking back that has earned the nickname "Rock"! And he can catch the ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe trying to get the name to catch on for him? We'll see if the announcers pick up on it Sunday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think part of that is him knocking the rust off after his long layoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted November 12, 2004 Share Posted November 12, 2004 I'll chime in on that and say yep, he's done well recently as have a few others. Before I'm going to buy that case of Doritos and Quarter Key of Heineken for home delivery in January though, I'm going to wait and see if the boys are really getting their stevestojan together, or if they're just triffling with my affections again.
