i don't have the luxary of copying and pasting links on my att go phone and no internet service at my house with nothing but secured wireless internet in my neighborhood, but i just read an espn article that stated that Wake had a league high 13 holding penalties and no one else in the league had more than 7. makes you wonder how many of those 13 would have been sacks.

Honestly, I think they need to spray his uniform down with some WD40 before the games.

p.s. on a totally unrelated subject, i was hoping that nobody would start any threads about the outcome of tomorrows pre season game because i will have to wait for the replay on nfl network. if anyone thinks this is an impossible hope of mine please let me know and i will stay away from this site until seeing the game. lol.

i think his sack total will sky rocket as a DE -
There is a thread out there Rick that has some good stats in it, bottom line, there's legit evidence that he is the best pressure player in the game, and to me the stats don't lie in this case, just add should be holds to the equation, and the way he plays the run, and you have an elite football player at his position.ToddPhin, MikeHoncho and Fin D like this. -

Probably lead the league in holding non-calls as well, eh hem Nate Solder

I'm pretty sure that number would be doubled if they actually flagged Nate Holder... I mean Solder.

Here is the article the AP referenced in the above piece.

I expect this year’s defense to be one of the best.

thanks to both posters about warning me about staying away from this place if i dont wanna know the outcome before i see the game.

Wake should really take off this season with us having several other solid pass rushers on the DL; Odrick and the rookie from Miami Olivier(sp?), and putting Wake back on the DL should give him some serious sack numbers. Our LB corps will have to be good at covering TE's, glad to see Dansby come in to TC back at his old weight. He should be faster and better in TE coverage.

anyway, i am so happy we gave Wake a chance after he didnt do great on his first NFL team (i forget what that team was) and after he was a star in the CFL. i am glad we were able to get him a new deal. he deserves every penny.Bpk likes this. -

I've posted my little chat with PFF about this and they were dismissive which imo was a flaw in their thinking.
Kracken has such a good jump off of the snap that Tackles will hold him but Vollmer literally tackling him was not flagged.
Think of it as the "patriot rules" -

The refs have hopefully been made aware of players in this situation and to keep an extra eye out.

It's going to be worse with the fake refs this year to.
