Edelman with a torn ACL. Just another reason to not play your starters in any preseason game.

Maybe college but just ran across this on Twitter....like the Bo 91 yard MNF run, it doesn't even look real. Glad he killed all the dogs.

There have been a ton of hyped up athletic/mobile QBs in college (and some NFL) since Vick, but none as electric as him.Ironman92;1868931 wrote:Maybe college but just ran across this on Twitter....like the Bo 91 yard MNF run, it doesn't even look real. Glad he killed all the dogs.

Disagree. Manziel in his Heisman year was insane, just balled out every weeklike_that;1868932 wrote:There have been a ton of hyped up athletic/mobile QBs in college (and some NFL) since Vick, but none as electric as him.

Well you were probably like 3 years old during Vicks Heisman season. Manziel wasn't even close to being as exciting as Vick.Classyposter58;1868984 wrote:Disagree. Manziel in his Heisman year was insane, just balled out every week

Pretty tame for Burfict's standards. 5 games seems excessive.BR1986FB;1868991 wrote:Burfict facing 5 game suspension for illegal hit....

Watched the highlight, repeat offender, led with his head into a head of a guy not even in on the play. I think 5 is fine.

He should get 5 just for being a first class turd. His reputation has caused this. Has nobody to blame but himself.iclfan2;1868993 wrote:Watched the highlight, repeat offender, led with his head into a head of a guy not even in on the play. I think 5 is fine.

I was having this discussion with my friends. Burfict has a history of being a POS and the NFL loves ticky tacky and being petty. That's the perfect cocktail for his 5 game suspension, even though it seems excessive for that hit.iclfan2;1868993 wrote:Watched the highlight, repeat offender, led with his head into a head of a guy not even in on the play.

He hit a guy in the chest with his shoulder. No reason for a fine or suspension. If that hit deserves a suspension than every starting MLB will be suspended at some point this season.

You clearly never saw Vick at VT. Watch the highlight I linked and show me where Maziel looks like Deion (Sanders that is...if you know who he is)Classyposter58;1868984 wrote:Disagree. Manziel in his Heisman year was insane, just balled out every week

Like I said, Classy was probably 3 years old when Vick played for VT. I was 12 and lived in VA at the time. I watched every VT game that year, because I watched Vick the year before in the VA HS playoffs, which (SHOCKER) he was also a beast. Vick and Shyrone Stith were LETHAL that year. I legitmately can't think of a college QB that was ever as exciting as Vick was his Heisman season.Ironman92;1869005 wrote:You clearly never saw Vick at VT.

Comparing Manziel to Vick is laughable at best.

That's an insane play. Vick, Bush, and LeMichael James were the most electric CFB I have seen.Ironman92;1868931 wrote:Maybe college but just ran across this on Twitter....like the Bo 91 yard MNF run, it doesn't even look real. Glad he killed all the dogs.

Not in the same group, but Eric Crouch was also fun to watch. He is the last guy to effectively run the triple option.

I would say Vick, Bush and Fitz. Vick and Bush are clearly 1-2 the last 20 years.Commander of Awesome;1869076 wrote:That's an insane play. Vick, Bush, and LeMichael James were the most electric CFB I have seen.

Same guy who was once benched for Dan Orvlosky is now the highest paid player ever. Makes sense.
