I don't think Boston had that large of a frame...he was more medium thickness... Definitely didn't have as broad of shoulders as DK. Most of his bulk was artificial....the fat face was the easiest giveaway, just like Bonds.
And then he got a mega pay day from chargers and was sad to see roids ruin Boston promising carrer was a sick sick wr for buckeyes cards
This is not correct. If you stretch and work on mobility, for the most part, bulk doesn't matter. Arnold type of body building and strongmen like Thor, who many consider the strongest person to ever live, are the exceptions. And still Thor is insanely agile for his mammoth size. Go to the 1:30 mark here to see.
Those have absolutely nothing to do with playing QB.
Joe seems wiry strong though. At least in games. I've seen him break a few tackles.
What does it matter if he is in the fetal position?
This take is a little spicier than I’d make it, but you’re not wrong to doubt that Kyler’s probably not concerned much about taking a beating. He’s not going to take many hits.
And bingo was his namo!!
I think the flip side of that coin is that it seems a little unlikely that a guy who is 24 years old and been the best athlete on the field for his entire football life is going to make that kind of investment right now. There are some people who say, "I'm DROY, 2x Pro Bowler -- what else do I need to do?"
100% this
They are football players which is a different animal. You have to be pretty dang strong so they often have some meat on their bones which has a lot of muscle mass.
Plus he has to have some size as far as strength being under 6 ft. Can't have a qb who 5 9 160-170 pounds. People forget even the smallest players have some size. My theory is he getting stronger in the weight room and that will help him build that endurance he needs to not hit the wall. I expect more handing the ball off, passing to TEs, and some well timed runs. It's tough to say how many yards he'll have running and passing but I think his bulking up is a plus. They have camp anyways so he'll lean out some.
I'll admit its disappointing that 4 years in he hasnt reached out to Russ or Brees.
A little Russell Westbrook in his mentality.
Fair.
David Johnson became vegan for his wife, the team somehow let it happen, and his career was ruined as a result. His freak injury was the result of this change in diet, and he wasn't the same even when he went back on an appropriate diet. So we have a recent history here.
