....lybob Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 Once upon a time many football players had necks bigger than their heads (linemen, linebackers and fullbacks mostly) not so much anymore - why do you think that is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Buffalo Joe Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 I'm not sure why this is labeled a silly question. This is a very serious matter that needs a full investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just in Atlanta Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 (edited) Maybe their necks stayed the same and their heads got bigger? Either way, I blame the Patriots*. If the necks have gotten bigger, maybe we can point to the introduction of Japanese training methods in the NFL? http://www.tofugu.com/2013/11/11/wacky-japanese-exercise-equipment-gets-your-face-in-shape/ Or maybe thin necks are in fashion? http://www.bored.com/articles/15-incredibly-long-necks-you-wont-believe-are-real/ Edited May 7, 2015 by Just in Atlanta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thebandit27 Posted May 7, 2015 Share Posted May 7, 2015 You must have googled "Merton Hanks neck" too. That pic came up in the images for it. Actually, no. I just remember when the Raiders would play the 'niners, and my dad and I would grab a jar of pepperoncinis and watch the "neck off" between Williams and Hanks.
