Yay roby!!! His health is the most important thing.. However I wonder if he will be back on the field this season?

skymike 12-13-2010 05:55 PM

Hoooray!

I am so glad to hear this, and even more glad that so many people messaged him to show their support. I like the way we remember that
our players are people.

Great News.

I do hope he's ok, but time to go in a different direction.

I don't think he looks scared at all, he runs full speed straight up the field without a moments hesitation, the point is that Roby is alot more than just a return man, he's one of the best gunners on coverage, he is ALWAYS down the field first making the tackle.

Takes a knee to the head and is still scrounging on the bottom of the pile for the ball. That takes guts & heart, not fear.

Thank you baby Jesus! Get well soon, Roby!

wow, really?

I can think of 6-7 great plays he made this year. Maybe he isn't an elite returner, but he is a gunner on coverage

cajun911 12-13-2010 08:19 PM

Glad to hear that. I was pretty concerned b/c they took so long to get him off the field.

Agreed.
:bng:

What is the injury?
How serious was his injury?
I still don't know.

rich006 12-13-2010 10:09 PM

Someone can fact-check me, but I think he has forced 2 fumbles on kick coverages this year? He is clearly our top kick coverage guy as well as the best KO returner on the team. I'm not saying an upgrade isn't possible, just that he has played pretty well.

no disrespect to Roby, but time to move in a different direction.


You must be watching a different Courtney Roby. Film doesn't lie. He IS "ALWAYS" the first one down the field on coverage. One hell of a gunner with good veteran qualities, and more importantly, hustle, which is something you can't teach. Besides, an unproven rookie is the LAST thing I would want taking over such an important position.

skymike 12-14-2010 05:53 AM

Roby is perfectly courageous, actually crazy, to run up the gut of what used to be a wedge, but is now a pile of opponents.

He's 100% hustle too. Why do you think the stick man was so injured? accidentally, of course. He was flying down the sideline.

Dont bring no silly crap to our Roby thread.

We Love you, Courtney.

SaintPauly 12-15-2010 12:09 AM

I'm a Roby fan. He is dangerous, everytime he catches the ball. He gives us great field position almost every return. Love me some Roby, and glad to hear he's ok. GET BACK FOR THE PLAY OFFS BROTHER, WE NEED YA!!!
