Nice bubble too.
if t rich isnt starting im right there with you.
I agree that Jones is injury prone, but I don't think Murray is. Murray only missed four games total in his college career. He broke his ankle last season, but that was a freak thing with the way he went down. He sprained his foot this season, but RBs get dinged. If you want to call him injury prone then you can add Phillip Tanner to that label. He hurt his hamstring last year and was put on injured reserve, and he broke a bone in his hand at training camp this season.
Murray might not be injury prone by your label, but if you ever watch him run, he certainly doesn't try to avoid contact. After watching him against the Giants week 1, I almost guaranteed he would miss a few games this season. He's a very aggressive runner that needs to learn about running out of bounds more often. But this is just my opinion.
LOOK AT ME, I STALK YOUNGER MEN ON FACEBOOKGood FB friend of mine. Been talking about him for years.
... which begets why isn't there a thread asking why isn't there a thread asking why there isn't a thread talking about every player no one is talking about ... ya follow?
Cook filled in week 1 as well and was serviceable. It's our OG's that suck donkeynutz.
Felix could injure his ACL in a pillow fight. Are we back to talking about Tanner yet?
Maybe Dunbar? Tanner has been pretty underwhelming. Then again, you'll take what you can get behind that OL.As of right now, it seems as if Felix is being held together by bubble gum and duct tape. My over under was that he'd last 2-3 games with lead back touches. Were coming up on that mark this week.
You and I must have watched a different game or maybe I stepped out of the room. I saw Tanner screw up one run fake and was actually very impressed with his blocking and blitz pickup. Go figure.
Film study showed he got run over 3 times during blitz pickup.
So he picked up and made the block three times. Does it really matter if he gets knocked down in the process. His job is to slow the pass rusher up. Not many RB's are going to maintain a block for any length of time on a linebacker or defensive lineman.Film study showed he got run over 3 times during blitz pickup.
What part of run over are you not understanding?So he picked up and made the block three times. Does it really matter if he gets knocked down in the process. His job is to slow the pass rusher up.

Do you have a link? This would be huge news.
It's a decent call. ATL has been beaten up by inside runners this year (ALMO, McGahee). Conversely, they've held shiftier runners in check (McCoy, Mathews, Charles).
Well, that worked out well'BlueBlazer05 said:
Dunbar's getting snaps over him now. Meanwhile, Avery and his 16 points are on my bench.
