Also it’s amazing how much RussHuss’s career is mirroring Bens. seems like ben might actually be a better teammate 😬 L.O.B era seahawks hate russ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's gotta rub teammates the wrong way. Ben seemed like one of the guys, at least to the O-line and offense. I think the only offensive player that ever spoke out against Ben was Faneca, but that's been so long ago I hardly remember. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben seems like a guy that if your cool with, it can be a blast. But he can also rub people the wrong way by being distant/jerk Russ is on something else. I got weird vibes from when he did a podcast a few yrs ago. Dude might be some kind of narcissist, who lacks charisma. He comes off like this weird church/cult leader type, that happens to be really good at football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He definitely gives off a much more "phoney" vibe to me. Obviously a lot of guys have a tailored view that they allow to become public, but it seems like with Russ you can tell he's working really hard to have a specific perception for public view. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fanaca didn’t even speak out against Ben, more just didn’t want him playing his rookie year. Bell and Brown and Sanders are the only guys that said something bad. But even Sanders only said it once.

I don't remember Bell or Brown saying anything against Ben, but my memory is like a goldfish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't remember Bell or Brown saying anything against Ben, but my memory is like a goldfish. Here's the quote from Sanders: Quote (From) a mental standpoint, I don't care to really say this, but I feel Peyton is a far better leader. In terms of staying after practice, catching balls, wanting guys to get on the same page with him and things of that sort. This is the first time that I had a quarterback that stays every single day after practice, no matter what his accolades. From NFL MVP, Super Bowl rings. He keeps guys like me and (Cody) Latimer after practice and we're out there 15, 20 minutes. And he's not one of those guys you gotta go chase down, he's gonna be right at the same spot ready to work, every single day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think anyone would disagree with that sentiment. Peyton was better than 99% of NFL QBs. That pencil neck would have never made it behind some of the lines Ben had to stand behind, though lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can say Peyton is the best QB you ever played with without going into the detail that throws Ben under the bus. The staying after practice and chasing down parts really made it personal with detail. Though, if I remember correctly, AB came out after this in defense of Ben.....which is pretty funny in hindsight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jebrick Posted September 15, 2022 Share Posted September 15, 2022 Manning would have never stuck in the pocket to make those throws that Ben was famous for. Manning was a rhythm passer who could get flustered by pressure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dcash4 Posted October 12, 2022 Share Posted October 12, 2022 https://theathletic.com/3681543/2022/10/12/giants-daboll-kafka-offense/ This is a fun article, if anyone can read it. I don't recommend getting the Athletic (unless you find it for the $1 per month offer), but I do recommend following Ted Nguyen on twitter (@FB_FilmAnalysis) I don't think the Giants can keep this up record wise, but they are a really sound example of what good coaching can do with lack of talent. I was not sold on Daboll as an HC, but love what he is doing so far. The stuff they are doing to help Jones avoid his struggles and build on strengths has been pretty awesome. Quote Good coaches figure out what players do well and put them in a position to do it. Good coaches also give their players the tools they need to succeed.

Joe Theisman called him out (Jones that is). He called him “Vick light” and that he makes one read and runs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that safety takes time to acclimate to coming into the NFL, but its not great that a former 7th rd pick is (supposedly) outplaying a supposed top 5 draft talent. Could obviously turn it around, but again....not encouraging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
