I see what you did there, and I don't like it. (clever though) Those 3-Step drops really helped though.
You know Wake is looking forward to meeting Flozell Adams...his flaw is he typically is a tick slow coming off the ball in pass pro...
Tim Graham gets some flack but I like the guy. He seems to try to remain unbiased with his reports. Wake should pass everyone in the sacks department in the next couple weeks... Big Ben is a hard dude to get down but luckily Wake is jacked! He'll show loudmouth Joey Porter junior (Harrison) how its done!
As long as Tim Graham balances out the articles on his blog I have no problem with him, but at times there will be by far more Jets content than any other team in the AFCE and that is what bothers me about his work. If I want just Jest news I'll peek into a Jest forum.
F@CK Joey Porter , that incident(s) last year showed his true character if we had any doubt prior to that .
I said it all offseason that Wake was the only LB worth the damn on the roster. I also stated we could be competitive with youth at the position. I was shot down in both instances. Player fans get attached to big names and it skews their judgement. I said we would be fine without the bookend dinosaurs. I'm pretty sure I'm right.
Wake is drawing holding calls from RT's now too. In at least 2 of our 5 games so far. The one in GB was huge. i think it was a 3rd n 7 which they converted but came back on the hold to a 3rd and 17. Killed their drive without a sack. He wasn't getting any of those calls last year. Now it seems the refs are seeing it more and actually calling it. It's nice to have a pass rusher who draws holding calls, they can be drive killing penalties. Wake is just going to get better IMO as well. This is also important for Misi's opportunities to make plays. Wake will keep getting teams attention and our Rook will be given open lanes to make plays from the other side or up the middle. Love this tandem. Great FA find in Wake and draft pick by getting Misi in the second after trading down.
I really wanted Graham but Misi has been impressive. Now if we can only get Odrick out there making plays to get the payoff for the move down.
Flozell is still in the NFL? lol Never have been to impressed with Starks as well. Should be a good day for the Fins OLB's.
Hopefully the refs will start calling them a little more frequently. There was one play vs the Pats that he got mugged and they looked the other way.
personally I was never a huge fan of Porter. I supported him because he was a Fins but that was it. I forget who said it but the guy that made the popcorn muscles comment about Porter was right.
Misi is just one of those Stealth players, hardly notice him, constantly in the right place at the right time, that TD vs the Vikings, two sacks just coming off of blocks to mop up the Qb. Koa already has 3 sacks, afaik, Lorenzo Brommell holds the dolphins rookie record for sacks at 7...real good shot that Misi breaks that one. Now when Ikaika Francis shows up we will be fast, deep, and young, at Lb.
I guess I'm the only one disappointed in Misi? He's been decent in coverage, but has provided 0 pass rush all year, and all his sacks were coverage sacks. He has a great motor, but doesn't set the edge that great. And has no pass rush moves as of now. I think he has a great set of abilities to work with and nice instincts, so I'm very happy with the pick. But he hasn't done much so far.
..now that's just mean. KillahP is alright in my book, we disagree, and still do, about Taylor having a role for the 10 fins, but other than that..what's not to like* *This has been a paid annoucement from Why people should like KillahP PAC and in no way represents the views of the poster or the thephins forum itself
Wasn't it Brandon Marshall that said that?? Edit: Yep, it was [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f8lB-KRmhd4"]YouTube - Brandon Marshall calls Joey Porter "soft"[/ame]
HaH! The irony is that it was B-Marshall that said that. Hated Peezy from way before he was a Dolphin, and didn't change while he was. Had a bad habit of letting his mouth get in the way. for Cam Wake!
you were not shot down by all, I had us replacing all four starters from last year thru draft and free agency...Crowder made it through...Wake became the superstar that some of us projected after his first game.
