Also, let's knock of this "it was the LINE!" as the sole reason why Holmes excelled in KC and Baltimore. Yes, the Chiefs had a great offensive line from 2002-2004 but they didn't block the d-lineman, then the linebackers then the safeties. They opened holes for Holmes but he still had to outthink and out run defenders. It's pretty much a trend around here that the older guys tend to favor Holmes while the younger guys favor Charles. It's understandable but both were fantastic running backs, when healthy. |

It would be nice to see Charles return to form and have three more successful seasons so that he's at least in the HOF conversation. As it stands, his numbers are far short and if longevity wasn't an issue, Terrell Davis would be in the HOF (and IMO, rightfully so). |

I can live with the idea that, even when Peters messes up, you have to be perfect to take advantage.

Regarding the Emmitt Smith debate, his best attributes were...
1) he was flat out tough 2) anticipation/vision 3) durability/longevity I forget who they were playing, but he played at least a full half of football with a broken collarbone... with his physical style of play, that is the definition GRITTY AND TOUGH, it was unheard of But there is certainly plenty of merit to the arguments that point out the teams he played on, they were dominant at every offensive position, a perennial All Madden unit... and yes, the line he enjoyed through the years was always top shelf and often the very best in the league He was great, no question... but truly deserving of GOAT? I dont care what the record book says... no way If Jammal Charles had played for a team like that through his career, his YPC and yards would be absolutely stupid And if Barry Sanders had played for them, forget it... no one would ever beat his records, period. That poor guy got ****ed so bad on the Lions, cant blame him a bit for retiring early |

So Dee Ford said it was nice to "knock off some rust" in his interview today...

Q: How do you feel after that first preseason game?
FORD: "It feels good to go out and knock some rust off - by rust I mean actual game experience. It's one thing going at practice and going up against the same guys - pretty much every day and especially in preseason. You don't game plan - you just go out and play. It was good to knock some rust off and get out there and fly around." Holy shit you guys are blowing every little thing this guy does/says out or proportion. Nothing wrong with that quote. |
