It's the NFL..what guys don't miss time and are impacted by injuries?
Injured
Played injured
Played next to Volson
Goin' solo---going from memory--- It seemed that if we were going to have Sample stay in and block on passing downs . . . it was next to Williams, but I could be wrong. It may have been 50-50 and I just never noticed it.
There were a lot of games this year that I had no interest in watching a second time.
I'm a Mixon guy, but I expect him to be ''Marshall Faulk'' and the Bengals go and get their ''Edgerrin James''. I am not calling Mixon a Hall Of Famer . . . I'm just saying, they had a young veteran RB help Manning get to a certain point and then picked up the guy that was going to be Manning's main back up plan for the bulk of his career. It would be nice to get that line sorted out first, though.
Going solo...we paid him high-end free agent money to go solo. When we signed him, many thought we were getting a pro-bowl caliber tackle who could hold down the edge. Not a high paid LT that needed double teams to succeed. Come on, if somebody told you in the preseason OBJ couldn't hold up 1v1, you would have called them a hater like so many Chiefs and Ravens fans tried to tell us.
