I like this. Hope they aren’t rushing him but I feel like he’s about to go off.

Should do good. Assuming he will be matched against the weaker CB one on one most of the game. Tampa is getting stud ILB Devin White back which will be interesting how they use him. Shadow Kamara the entire game would make sense. I could see Smith having a strong game if he can beat his man.

Why do the call it the grid iron? The field is not a grid and the helmets certainly aren’t iron. Never understood that term. Maybe iron protective cup for their junk?

Why do they call it the gridiron?
It is also sometimes known as "gridiron football". This name originates with the sport's characteristic playing field,
which is marked by a series of parallel lines along the width of the field in a pattern resembling a cooking gridiron.

As a chef I would think you should know this. A gridiron is a grilling pan or basket with parallel lines The early displayed lines of the football field resembled the lines of a gridiron, thus the name.

I honestly had no idea. I’ve been calling it gridiron football all my life and never really thought about the origin.

Now I want to find one of those gridirons. I love cooking with my cast iron and that looks dangerous good. I've been cooking since I was seven and have cooked every meal for 31 years of marriage ... except for those rare occasions we go out for birthdays or the anniversary. That's why I love cruising so much! I get EVERY meal cooked for me.
