Running the ball

Love the game TO is having. I don’t get one thing though – why don’t the Boys ever run the ball straight ahead? I feel like the runs are always draws, delays, from the shotgun, etc. Just pound it up the middle with a fullback already!

You people saying Flo is stupid need to get your facts right

He’s deaf in his right ear. Let’s see any of you play OL in the NFL with that.

by mhuff13 on Nov 23, 2008 1:56 PM CST reply reply actions actions   0 recs

Is he totally deaf?

I feel like medical technology should be able to help, but admittedly I’m not sure how a hearing aid would hold up playing football.

by grapejoos on Nov 23, 2008 1:57 PM CST to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

You see, this is the problem with the announcers

Buck called Flo’s False Start “Inexcusable”. Actually it’s very excusable, when you consider that he is legally deaf in his play-side ear and STILL is an elite left tackle in the NFL. No one knows about his handicap because the “analysts” don’t report it, and bash him for every false start.

Flo needs a whisper 2000 or something. Reminds me of my friend’s suggestion that the refs use a blue flag for Cowboys penalties.

If I remember, on draft day there was some concern that he was a system QB at Houston, and I’d love to see that be accurate.
