I will restate my question. If he had an injury he could have played through, but he chose to shut it down because he was putting his own career...
I was always talking about the best 49ers teams against the best Bears teams. When you have two great teams, matchups become key. That is why I...
Tank for Trevor!
Remember, the NFL has a salary floor. They may need Dalton to keep them above it. (To be fair, I haven't really kept track of their offseason.)...
That all makes sense. My best guess on Ebron, and it is only a guess, is that he wasn't fully healthy, but he could have played. He made a...
I'm definitely a little concerned about the way Ebron handled things last season and his reputation for being a lousy blocker, but the guy can be...
No, I wasn't wrong. Superior talent can overcome superior design in a single game. The Bears were better than the 49ers in '85. Now put one of...
I was living in New Orleans at the time, so all I ever saw from that game was the score and a few highlights. I have always wondered how the...
I am relentlessly honest and I wasn't wrong. I never said the '85 49ers were better than the '85 Bears.
Agreed. He was a good player and I think he will be even better now that he is in a 4-3 with the Eagles, but he was never on Hampton's level.
That wasn't the 49ers at their best. That team wasn't as good as the group the year before and it certainly wasn't as good as the 1989 team.
Hargrave was a 4-3 defensive tackle stuck playing the nose. Unless the Steelers switched to a 4-3 base, he was always going to be somewhat...
Because they didn’t sign anybody else. They didn’t sign a veteran tight end, a starting fullback or a veteran replacement for Finney while keeping...
I think that is a decent bet. The Steelers were a Smith-Schuster fumble away from beating them in Pittsburgh and that was with the ugly injury to...
I don't want to go too deep into things I was told, but I actually do believe that Marino dabbled in college. After seeing Joe Gilliam destroy...
I'm not even sure that was the best Dolphins team in the '70s. From everything I've read and seen, the '73 team that crushed the Vikings in the...
This is like the people who think the Steelers should be drafting quarterbacks in the sixth round every year because that is when the Patriots got...
So anybody who isn’t as good as TJ Watt isn’t extremely productive. Got it.
Dan Marino handled them just fine. Montana could have done that, too, with the weapons he had and, those 49ers teams had much better defenses than...
I'm sorry if this is going too far into a non-Steelers tangent, but what MLB needs is a salary floor, something else the NFL has in place. That...
