Do you know how many of the great OL/DL in the NFL are athletic freaks that could be playing a "smaller" position if they weren't packing on the pounds (fat and muscle) to play on the line? It's very difficult for some of these guys to weigh what they do, and tons of the great lineman, comparitively, look like stick figures and completely different dudes years after they retire once they don't need to keep on the football weight. Describing the OL/DL in the NFL as lazy fat slobs is ignorant, in tons of ways. There are many who are natural fatties with athleticism, but tons of these guys arrive at their first college practice weighing at least 50 pounds less than they will weigh in the NFL. It IS hard work, to put on that weight because the position necessitates it, while continuing to be a functional, impressive athlete.Have you looked at the linemen on every team? They aren't "working" at all, let along working hard. Except, of course, for their knives and forks. Many of them are obese, and nearly all are fat. Not sure what "workouts" they can do, and still maintain those jiggling rolls of fat. Maybe they bench press pork chops or something.No it's not. Almost all of the guys in the NFL work hard. The very good ons especially.Edit: AP's work ethic is beyond any player in the NFL! You can say whatever you want about my IQ, and that's fine, but just passing on what I have seen for about 7 years!
That is how I was leaning also, that is a rough situation to be in. His best chance may be to get out of NY and start over.I prefer Sanchez and its not that close.Points well taken, but do you think Ponder is better than Sanchez?1) some ppl here think Geno has earned the starter job2) Cumberpatch is being taken in the 16th round of fantasy draftsYou really think Sanchez is worse than Ponder? Ponder has AP, a very good TE, he had Harvin last year, Jennings now, Sanchez has ummm Cumberpatch and Santonio "I don't want to play here" Holmes and Stephen Hill who actually has hands made of stone. I am not saying I agree or disagree, just saying there is room for debate on that.I think the Jets have the worst starter in the league, assuming it is Sanchez. Who is next, Ponder, Flynn or Gabbert? I think it is Ponder because he actually has weapons around him, Flynn doesn't
I don't understand why any team is willing to take the risk with him.Collie is expected to be cut by the 49ers.Where is Austin Collie? He is clearly the most talented WR on the roster, along with Boldin.
A while ago, I think broadcasters decided to not air streakers and so on to decrease their motivation. I bet they've got the footage somewhere though.Really wish the broadcast would show these fans running on the field getting pummeled.
Broadcaster said Jerome Simpson blindsided the first one.
Would love to have seen that.
Athletes of any kind do not have jiggling rolls of visible fat on them. You simply can't be "working" hard and look that fat. Exercise doesn't work like that. You can see them struggling to waddle off the field every other play, gasping for breath. They are a disgrace to the real football players who used to play their positions.Do you know how many of the great OL/DL in the NFL are athletic freaks that could be playing a "smaller" position if they weren't packing on the pounds (fat and muscle) to play on the line?

Serious question. Why do these players always have the right to tackle/destroy these kinds of fans that run on the field or streak, etc.? They aren't hurting anyone or jumping all over the players. There could be a serious injury, no matter how dumb the fans are being. Why aren't these players required to let security handle the situation? I've never understood why the players feel the need/have the right to lay out these fans. It's dangerous. If a streaker is coming at you with a shank in one hand and his #### in the other, okay, I understand. But these players fly out of nowhere and legit tackle these people.Really wish the broadcast would show these fans running on the field getting pummeled.

Well, he's an excellent WR until he takes his final hit.I don't understand why any team is willing to take the risk with him.Collie is expected to be cut by the 49ers.Where is Austin Collie? He is clearly the most talented WR on the roster, along with Boldin.
WHY is Collie "expected" to be cut? He looked great in camp, and obviously there is little competition at that position. As for the "risk," Collie was willing to sign a medical waiver, relieving any team of liability. He wants to play, and they won't let him.I don't understand why any team is willing to take the risk with him.Collie is expected to be cut by the 49ers.Where is Austin Collie?

Exactly. He runs a 4.5, and he plays like it. You literally said he's faster than most of the RB's in the NFL. It's not even remotely true. Now you're specifically listing a few successful guys he's faster than, as if it matters or is remotely relevant to what you said.Keep believing in racial stereotypes. Gerhart ran a 4.5 40. Even some of the most successful backs (Alfred Morris, Arian Foster, Stevan Ridley come immediately to mind) are slower. You see white, and you think slow. Just like you see a white WR, and you think about all those inaccurate "possession receiver," "deceptive speed," "overachiever" and "heady" references you've heard from the lame, wanna be comedians at ESPN.

Great point. And why do the announcers get so upset with the fans who do this? They become so thrilled when a player hits the fan, which really should be assault and battery, especially considering they are in full uniform. And their fellow, idiotic fans in the stands support the assaults with their cheers.Serious question.

Name the starting RBs in the league who run faster than a 4.5. There are only a handful, and you know it. But they aren't white, so they are never considered "slow."Exactly.

I really was just hoping you would move on from this silly comment. I can honestly say I have not gone out and timed any NFL rb's, I watched TG run and he looks slow, maybe it is because he is a bigger back, maybe the 9ers defensive players are crazy fast, I am not sure, but please believe me when I tell you it has nothing to do with him being white. He also went down on an arm tackle to a back-up lb'er, it was that play were he looked slow and weak and went down easily. I have always thought Alstott was slow also, but hell maybe he had sick wheels also and it was just the way he ran that made me think he was slow.Keep believing in racial stereotypes.

I think you might be onto something with this race thing. There are very few white people playing skill positions these days. Why?Name the starting RBs in the league who run faster than a 4.5.

Danny Woodhead is white, I don't consider him "slow". I'm not doing your research for you. You made the outlandish claim, you back it up.

This made me LOL, made my wife ask me what I was reading... she hates football so I didn't bother. It just made me laugh thinking of someone saying that to a nude fan as he gets blindsided by a guy in full gear.

Yes, that's another lie. When a white player times faster than he should, which happens frequently, the excuse to keep him off the field is that he "plays slow." Something, of course, that cannot be objectively demonstrated.Gerhart might be a 4.50 on a track, but he plays slow as hell.
You're both wrong AND missing the point. I wish it was surprising. You said that they "aren't working at all, nevermind working hard." Its quoted above. It was an asinine comment to make, and if you had actually read my original response to the point you made, which is also quoted above in this very post, you'd realize two things: 1.

Did he realize he had to give it up or did you have to force the issue?Concussions are scary. My son recently had his 3rd in as many many years playing football. Each got progressively worse with the symptoms. His career is over. He had slurred speech for 2+ hours and it scared the hell out of me.

You know that that's an "adjusted" time, right? In case you weren't aware All white players 40 times are scaled vs. other white runners. So it's not a real 4.5.

Assuming Pryor is the starter, then he's the worst starter in the NFL. Then I would put Ponder followed by Sanchez.I think the Jets have the worst starter in the league, assuming it is Sanchez.

Stills is flashing. I'm surprised there isn't more buzz honestly. He straight up dusted Jonathon Joseph and had about 5 yards separation for the TD.I would pay attention to both in dynasty. Toon is being groomed for Colston's role, Stills for Moore's role. The injury to Joe Morgan and departure of Devery Henderson opened the door for one to get a lot of playing time this season as the 3rd WR and it looks like that will be Stills. Couple of great catches today. Kid looks really polished for a 21 year old.Should we start paying serious attention here to either Toon or Stills? They have both flashed a lot of potential. Or does this all become just another preseason memory when Colston starts playing?In place of Colston.Toon started the game.What's NO's WR rotation like? Who started? I see that Toon has already gotten some action.
is playing like an ogre a good thing or bad?Forte playing like an ogre this preseason
