3rd and 1 to go..... Who do they expect? Ingram.

What do they get? Pistol Brees

If Harper tackled everyone he "got a hand on," he'd be a hall of famer...
The problem is, he doesn't tackle everyone he gets a hand on.

The flip-side is that Graham nearly always goes down on first contact.
That is a huge hole in his skill set.

I'd tend to agree with Rocky on this. Not EVERY time, but I'd say MOST times.

Excellent observation my friend. I've stated that as well on a couple occasions. For such a big athletic man, he drops like a rock on contact.

Not *****ing, just nit picking. He's a top 5 TE, with potential to be #1.

If thats all we have to nit pick, he's obviously a superstar.

WHY?????????????????

Are we trying to get out of Drew's contract with a medical retirement?!?

After watching Seneca Wallace in the game tonight, in hindsight I can see why Drew was running those plays. Seneca was useless out there. I can't see him teaching a defense much of anything.
