Sunday, he played beyond a solid game, he played a hell of a game, which the haters would just wait for a bad game and jump all over that, which most of his games aren't even bad, they're just not flashy.
People definitely made it up to sound like they know what they're talking about and then other people jumped on the bandwagon because it was a safe way to make them feel credible by bashing a guy that doesn't stand out in his play, so no one would defend him.
Everyone is watching the player with the ball or when the ends/Geno start to get pressure, but no one pays attention to Peko clogging the middle, which Sunday he went above and beyond, but no one would have mentioned it.
I highly doubt you evaluated his play enough over the past two years to make a statement like it's been mediocre or worse because not many people ever watch a NT. I doubt you even watched enough of him on Sunday to make a statement that he played well, but it's me so you feel the need to come in and act like a hard ass, as you do in response to a lot of my posts, which, by the way, is hilarious, so keep it up.
1. I couldn't care less who created this thread. My post would be identical regardless. I find it funny that you're accusing me of this when I've NEVER seen you in any of the in-depth Peko arguments so far on the new boards. I've been involved in many of them, where were you?
2. Many of us have acknowledged whenever Peko has played well. It just hasn't happened many times over the last couple of seasons. It's not because he's "not flashy", NT isn't typically a "flashy" position in a 4-3 defense, so that's not what most of us are complaining about. If you want to cry about those people, go ahead and cry about them, but don't lump everyone into one group when there are those of us that clearly know Peko's role.
3. STOP acting like you're the only person that watches football and pays attention to certain parts of the field. You're not. I promise you that. No matter what absurd stance you decide to constantly take, you don't "win" arguments by just claiming that nobody else watches anybody on the field without the ball. I know at least a few guys that post on here that are MUCH more qualified than a guy like you to talk about 4-3 NT play. Those guys happen to believe that Peko hasn't been very good lately and has been declining pretty hard after 2012.
4. People have already made mention to Peko playing well on Sunday. You aren't some visionary for starting a thread about it. Stop patting yourself on the back for something so silly.
5. Don't say that "everyone" watches the ball and "no one" pays attention to Peko and then claim that you just sit there and watch Peko the entire time. It makes you look stupid. I'm sure you have no idea why though.
You're a joke, and no one takes you seriously
