And it took him until 2009 to get up to good levels, with 2010 being his first elite season.
From then until Thomas' retirement, we had the better LT and the numbers prove it.
Thomas also played on worse lines year in, year out (I don't know what this has to do with the players themselves, but if you're qualifying this as being a thing, then I will use it as well, as it fits in my favour) and was a notoriously awful run blocker (with the numbers to prove it).
He was drafted 3rd overall, came from Wisconsin and had a shit-ton of hype: that's the only reason he got as, "legendary," as he did.
AND, he never had a season as good as Whitworth's '14.
Yes he was.
Numbers back it up.
Please, Nate, refute my claim with some evidence.
I don't have any numbers Truck, you make some very good points here. Maybe I fell for the Joe Thomas hype train myself.
Whit was one heck of a LT for us that is for sure.
