Plenty Of Depth To Incognito As A Player And A Person http://www.miamidolphins.com/news/plenty-depth-incognito-player-and-person
Good read. There's no doubt Incognito has the intensity, he just needs to keep it under control a bit. You gotta love lineman that are nasty.
there will be blood in the water every game looking forward to the feeding frenzy... The Pod will have worked up a KillerWhale-sized appetite by the opener think about it:
http://www.miamidolphins.com/news/plenty-depth-incognito-player-and-person I didn't see this posted if it is please move it. I thought it was a good read especially wondering if we signed a problem or a player. Looks like Sparano had to be behind this one. A quote from Ingognito i liked I like to hit people. I like to bring the contact to people and that was one of the major reasons for me choosing between baseball and football. There’s no contact in baseball and I’m an aggressive type of guy.”
richie will be involved in a fight somewhere in camp hot, tired, frustrated love those mean and nasty soft spoken guys
Yeah? Tell that to Pete Rose and Ray Fosse. And this was only a frigging All Star game for heaven sake.
Incognito has some upside. People write him off because he got cut from the Rams but they basically admitted he was their best linemen. He's been basically a white Rex Hadnot for a couple years enough and has the potential for more, and career-rescue wise he isn't as big a job as Jake Grove was. That being said, he has a stiff competition for a starting spot. I think he has major competition from Joe Berger, who I think probably should be a favorite for a guard spot.
So long as he can play with intensity, and learns to stop it on a dime, I'm cool with him. I just worry about taking the chance since we really don't keep a lot of depth at guard active. After that game last year (forget which) where we had Smiley go down, then Grove, and then had to play with a hodgepodge line with Berger playing Center for the first time, and Grove having to come back in injured... Yeah, it just worries me to lose someone on the line to aggression issues, starting a fight or whatever.
Strange thing I find is that most, if not all, NFL teams only dress 7 offensive lineman on game day. One is usually a G/C backup and the other is a G/T backup. The NFL has to let these teams dress a few more guys on game day. Every team keeps at least 9 active Olineman on their roster and two are inactive on game day but they still get paid the same thing if they were active and standing on the sideline. Only difference in pay are the Olineman on the Practice squad.
i don't think many are writing Incognito off ... in fact most have already pencilled him in as a starting G. i believe 1 of the positions is his to lose ... but there will be some serious competition at G this year - and that is a very good thing. we will have very good depth all along the line this year and for the next few years.
I don't think Rex Hadnot on his best day could match the intensity, strength and run blocking prowess that Richie I possesses.
Reading that article I would have to imagine someone like Incognito would welcome the competition as opposed to some prima dona that expects to just walk in and start.
agreed. but the upside is Incognita @ least has something that requires control & once harnessed his love of & capacity for violence & brutality will serve us well welcome to the Pod another KillerWhale 'the war is won or lost in the trenches... the offensive line sets the standard ... blajette
I have to agee with the other poster. I may have only been here a short time but you do know how to re arrange the letters in the alphabet and put common words in such an order so as to make them sound sooooooooo pretty.
I bet he regrets passing on baseball. You can be a Grade-A ******* all you want in that sport. Just ask Milton Bradley.
