What the hell was that from Flacco! Obviously sees the DB spying the RB and throws the ball anyway! Jeezus

Watched him last year during the our game with Houston and thought he was the real deal. Fast, physical with sound technique. As you mentioned, always taking it too far and is usually good for 3 to 4 fines a season.

Wanted to keep it fairly recent, but you are correct. Dobler was the Godfather of dirty players. Never denied the accusations and relished the reputation as such.

Oh, I remember Jack. My dad was a Steelers fan. He retired in 1984 though, so unless someone was cheering from their mom's womb nobody under 40 remembers watching Lambert, at least not live. Never considered him dirty though. To me he was just a mean intimidating SOB who played hard and relentless.

That's a good point I didn't consider. I'm old enough to remember Bruce Smith letting up a few times on Joe Montana when he played for KC in the playoffs. Joe was taking a beating that game.

Yeah, I tried to make it relatable to the under 40 members🤣

Then I guess you've never watched: Vontaze Burfict Albert Haynesworth Rodney Harrison Vince Wilfork Ndamukong Suh Bill Romanowski They would've ended Allen and celebrated.

If we judge him as the player he currently is, then sure. But, Josh has also shown that he's highly adaptable. Just a matter of learning the scheme and developing timing and chemistry with other players. It may not be his preferred style of play, but he's a hellava lot better option than those two.

I know we're talking hypothetically, but are you serious? 🤣

Touche 🫡

Yeah, but he did it with Garoppalo and Purdy🤣 If he had Allen, who knows.

2 Super Bowl appearances the last 6 years?

Time to scout the Panthers practice squad.

I'm going McDermott. The perceived notion that this defense at one time was considered elite (statistically) during his tenure is such a fallacy. Just look at this units playoff success and not regular season beating up on AFCE tomato cans. I won't say his beloved nickel scheme can't work, but he doesn't have the right make up of players currently to make it formidable. Its basically the same scheme Houston runs but theirs sure looks a whole lot different doesn't it. It was fairly successful when main cogs like Taron, Milano and Tre were in their prime, but that ship has sailed. Sure, offense is a problem at times but it's still capable of putting up points in bunches. Yeah, it's McD for me. Until we get the Dawgs that can excel in it we're just spinning our wheels as we continue to keep and restructure washed players.
