I would just like more from him on the field. 1 1 8 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides that, anyone who knows football can clearly see his total body of work shows he's above average. Elite? No. But definitely better than average. 2 5 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My only concern with him will always be keeping his fat butt in shape. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyp566 Posted August 17, 2023 Share Posted August 17, 2023 He’s an exception to the rule in a lot of ways. He’s built like an old school guard but somehow functions at LT. Does not have a typical body for the position as he looks very out of shape. There are better but there are worse. He’s made a solid career for himself. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what I meant as the guy was fighting for his life. Ignoring the Covid year, his weight has always fluctuated more than most offensive tackles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would just like more from him on the field. Yeah, I think he’s a little better than that. I don’t know that there are 10 left tackles in the league that I would take over him.

GOD bless you and your openness. 3 minutes ago, NewEra said: Do you think Ruben Brown was an average OG? I think Ruben Brown was above average but certainly not elite as his 9 Pro Bowl appearances would suggest. Ruben's high draft status (14th overall) for a Guard got him the annual Pro Bowl nomination rather than his play. Do you think Ruben belongs in the Hall of Fame? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t care about the pro-bowls, but Browns four second team all-pro seasons carry some weight. Pro Bowl is more a popularity contest than an indicator of ability. For example, Ray Nitschke had seven all pro seasons despite only making one pro bowl. They need to just kill the pro bowl and walk away from the abomination 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
