  • Maybe we should get a Voodoo doll of Big Ben? Worth a shot eh? Not sure I would be willing to spend any money on it. Maybe make 1 from scratch?

    That POS has landed face first without a helmet in a motorcycle accident and raped girls with impunity.

    I'm pretty sure a voodoo doll is useless vs someone who obviously sold his soul years ago.

  • Today's football players? They suck. Less practice equals less quality on the field. Pure and simple. That's where that saying came from.. you know...practice makes perfect.

    Plus they don't practice hard.. Which is why there are more injuries in the game...

    And the average player is still bigger, faster, stronger than generations past.

    A 6' 2" 210 lb player today has been in formal training longer some since junior high and high school and in weight reps, 40 times, vertical jumps, etc. etc. better than even their 6' 2" 210 lb players from yesteryear..... don't believe it just ask any former player.

    Oh yes less big physical contact and reduced training time to cut down on concussions will affect playing sharpness on the field at least early on in the season.

    These soft, "less-skilled" players of today would annihilate the "real men" teams of a generation or two ago. It would be an absolute bloodbath.

    I know it doesn't fit into the "HEY YOU KIDS GET OFF MY DAMNED LAWN" narrative pushed on here, but it's true.

    Go back to the old rules and they would not survive Night Train Lane and D. Butkus. Most of the skilled players on offense would be on protocol by halftime.😛

  • Football players train all year 'round now-a-days.  They are physically bigger (more weight) and stronger (more muscle) than they were way back when.  And they are faster.  As I've said before, no longer are defensive players just guys that weren't good enough to be on offense.  Now, kids grow up WANTING to be LB'ers (Lawrence Taylor, Singletary, etc.) and WANTING to be DB's (Deon Sanders, etc.).   

    You can't run power sweeps anymore.  Pulling linemen?  RB's would get chased down from behind.  The DE's & LB'ers are as fast as THEY are now.  

    Sure, Jim Brown would still be good...but he wouldn't be a 'man among boys' anymore.  

    note - there's a bunch (gaggle, pride, group, etc) of wild turkeys roaming the neighborhood.  Time to take my dog for a walk. 🙂

    Bingo...

    Jim was a physical specimen in an age of underdeveloped physiques... when 270 linemen were "big" and 300 pounders were rare. When 240# LBs ran like linemen run today and 200# DBs ran like today's LBs.

    It's the strength at speed that separates today's pro athletes from those of my NFL fandom's formative years.

    Jim might still be "the man", but it would be as a man among men.

    The "new" rules were largely put in place to keep today's players from literally killing each other.

    And you cannot just cherry pick a few players from yesteryear to compare to today's players it just doesn't work......and YES I grew up watching 1950s and 60s players!

    And I'm 67 dammit and keep your stuff off my lawn! 😆

  • Well, now after 4 games, being excited to see Myles play is like being excited about seeing that brand new 4K TV that's hanging on the only wall left of your burned out home.

    Jim Brown couldn't run power sweeps today? The fucking guy played at 228 without testosterone injections. He would annihilate today's defenses. 

    He just might have been above average. In case  you don't remember Jim was running over 230 pound defensive ends, not the 270+ pound guys of today's NFL.. The 3-4 defense with linebackers weighing at least as much- or 250 ish and almost as fast might have made a slight difference on running power sweeps. DUH. So stop the hero worship.

    You are truly a dumb Shmuck. Lamar Lundy, Rosie Greer,  Carl Eller,  Merlin Olsen, etc etc etc....all.tony guys Right?

    Tell me again how much difference those dome a dozen fat butt OL we got make a difference?

    Tell me.how shitty the Bengals are and how bad Dalton is.

    Before you do, get Flugel off his knees and let him tell us again "Williams will have the defense whipped onto a frenzy. 

    I bet you guys alllooked.loke you are a big Ghoolie Sheet sandwich today.

    When it comes to football,pal....O am the king.  Tell me.again how Lewis goes before Hue.

    You forgot Decon Jones if you were going for the Rams' Fearsome Foresome, a great  defensive front back in the day all could play today because they were the best back then not the typical players. Fun going down memory lane occasionally.

    Didn't forget him, just was't making an exhaustive list. Lilly, Andre, lots of huge players, and they were much more physically fit that today's lardasses. Remember when Terrell Davis ran the big fat bastards of Green Bay in the SB? Hoorta likes fatasses...he thinks they are the most important player on the field.

    Do you mean gym rats? Today's professional players are 100% committed AND paid very well to stay in shape better than ever.......just the facts Ghool. 😉

    I was the first one to bring actually truth about KWII never being any good after the first knee problem. My childhood best friend is a top Orthopod at UH...he tels me Garrett will never be hole and will have recurring ankle problems and not last in the NFL. I promise you, he's not going to contribute much.

  • With our luck, your Dr. friend will be right.   Not because he's a great Dr....but because Garrett is a Brown.
