Did you know that Sterling Sharpe had a strap in the back of his helmet to his pads to help keep him from looking down?
Sharpe had that narrow opening for his spinal cord. He played all those years, and didn't even know it till he got hurt.cyoung said:Packerfanforever said:why wasnt he on the team in 96?
Severe Career ending neck injury
You must be a complete idiot to not know what happened to sterling sharpe. Get your head out of the sand and pay attention!!
(sorry I had to do that)
HAHA....I suppose I had that one coming! Good one!! For some reason the only thing that comes to mind is a nagging turf toe injury.
I too am excited to see what Jones can do. These days it seems that all the fast WRs coming out of college get alot of attention, and those with unimpressive speeds are called "posession receivers, at best". That is garbage. Speed doesn't make you a good receiver and not having impressive speed doesn't mean crap either. I read some "football experts"' opinions on our draft and the concensus was that Jones was a huge reach and will be never be better than a WR3 in his career, but Clowney has impressive speed so he will be a great weapon. Speed is just one small attribute to a successful receiver. Lets give this guy a chance.
Its also comical to hear these experts say "the guy has no speed" when they can jog faster than any of us could ever sprint.

There's a few thousand players looking pretty good in practices right now. The next hurdle is also looking good in training camp, and then looking good in pre-season games, and then making the final roster. After all that comes what really counts, looking good in the regular season. And for some, also looking good in the post-season.
We shall see.

I've heard Stonehands Bowe and fragile Meacham aren't making much of an impression so far. I'll take the positive reviews up to this point. It is only one hurdle, but on the bright side, hey! It's a hurdle!
