WOW!!!!

Admit it. When you saw the LB's coming in on a full sprint blitz you said to yourself. OMG, Blake is dead man. Then out of no where #22 knocks the LB back 10 yards on his a$$.

Havent seen a cards RB do that since... since... well I have only followed them since 87 so I have NEVER seen it.

Agreed now if we can only get our offensive line to block as good as him.

:rolleyes:

Was the O-line really that bad? They only gave up one sack and Emmitt had 4.5 ypc and Shipp 4.75 ypg. Besides Clements false starts and Dishman, how did the rest of the line play?

I thought Smith played one heck of a game. He showed leadership. His calling a timeout to save the delay penalty just shows how much of a pro he is. His blocking was awesome on the blitz pickup and I sure hope he is chewing a-- at practice this week. Why does our offensive line sprint to the line of scrimmage. They play with no emotion! If the O-line is supposed to be the heart of this team boys, we are in big trouble.

Smith was money all day. There is no doubt about that. Much as I wanted us to stick with Shipp, Emmitt certainly made a difference out there. He even called a TO so we wouldn't get a penalty!

But FloridaCard, yes, our O-line was that bad. Blake was constantly having to throw quickly or on the run. The Weeble-Wobble (aka Dishman) was manhandled, pushed into the backfield, etc, by Big Daddy. Discouraging, I say.

Dishman is a DISGUSTING FATBODY!

I feel sorry for him, when he has to watch game tape with the team this week....Wilkinson made him look STUPID.

Emmitt "sees" things doesn't he. Mackovicka must've been blind. How many times did lb's shoot right by him to take Jake's head off? Geez...
