It's not too late to change it to #19, Mike!

I was wondering what number he would wear. Still think he should go with 84.

better than our typical off-season news on our WR: nothing like reading BMarsh getting stabbed by his woman.
it was almost a year ago when we had to read that crap.

The Jets would agree with this. Dolphans would disagree.

I wonder what number Gibson is gonna wear now, since he was 11 for the Rams.

Apr 4, 2013, 09:23 PM

He did mention this in his post signing press conference (#11).... he said himself its a fast number. Goes good with the double L's in his name too !

Love what Ben had to say, that was really, really cool.

What's that you say, former QB who threw to Wallace? He's not just a one trick pony? Oh please, I'm sure you just haven't seen tape of him...


The KRAKEN! Still proving doubters wrong on the weekly.
Get well soon Tanny. #ThatsMyQB

My hope for the player is to combine the ability he has, with a Davone Bess ninja like focus to the craft..if he can pick up some of that sh&$ from Bess, and then pick up some of the craftiness and deception that Brian Hartline plays with, then common sense tells me he will only get better, more well rounded receiver, I'm not sure with Philbin and Sherman watching you, you can get away with anything but, I mean if you wanted to be lazy and just use your speed as your only game,, then why come here, maybe we get lucky and get the coveted combination.He must know that we won't settle for less.

When an athlete has a skill that is so overwhelming, it tends to lead a vocal minority to undervalue his overall ability. Wallace isn’t immune to this. Many think that, because he is so fast, he must be be a poor route runner or an inconsistent pass catcher.

Roethlisberger said, though, that the “one-trick pony” label isn’t fair or accurate.

“Mike is way more,” Roethlisberger said. “It’s to Mike’s credit. Mike is really focused on becoming a better receiver. So he’s focused on his route running. He’s focused on running out-routes, and curl-routes, and in-routes and doing all the little things that’s required to become a great wide receiver.

“That’s why he, to me, is one of the best in the league, because he not only has that speed – he can run by anybody – but he can run routes and he can get open. That’s why we’re going to miss him, and the Dolphins are lucky to have him.”

If we REALLY have a QB to take advantage of his skills, we will be Ok.
