nick in* england Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 I've read a real hodge-podge of remarks about Gandy. Almost all of the 'fan' perspectives say he has issue with moving his feet and getting beat by Schobel. Conversely - the media is tending towards saying Gandy is having a good camp so far. Chris Brown for example says he's impressed... I think it might be too soon to tell. Gandy is average for sure - not any sort of upgrade over Jennings. He may play up to a level we can be confident in, but we're 4 days into a 4 week camp here and still over a month away from Houston. It's just too early to tell what's going on... Once we've scrimmaged against the Pack we'll know more. I expect to see some goalline situations and some situations where we ask the OL to do a lot. How Gandy performs in that scrimmage is going to tell us alot.
MadBuffaloDisease Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Gandy is average for sure - not any sort of upgrade over Jennings. I hope no one WAS expecting him to be an upgrade. I'd be happy if he were just a replacement.
Reuben Gant Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 What are we worried about? I think only pass protection. He'll be fine on the run. He'll be the starter, and they will be working in Peters for pass protection. Just my opinion.
todd Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Yeah, sound like a great forward-thinking plan. Screw him. Actually, I heard moulds dropped a pass so we should cut him as well. And JP has made some mistakes, so screw him. Gone, all of them! Haven't heard one positive report from our TBD scouts-whom I have high recognition for. The weakest link. I say If he allows one sack Friday night he's toast. Hang'em high..... 395683[/snapback]
CoachChuckDickerson Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Maybe some here are missing the point. 3 TBD posters who have gone to camp say Gandy sucks. 3!!!!! That is good enough for me, and it should be good enough for TD as well. Get er done TD!!!!

Conversely, several posters on other websites have said he looked good, and the coaches (according to a guy who has access to them) like him. And it's still just a few days into camp.
dundy249 Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 The official another player run out of town by know it all fans thread. IE: Glen Parker, Dusty Ziegler ect.....

We did give him until 11p.m. Friday- If that's not sufficient I don't know what is.

His moving on was probably better for everybody.

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 And If the fans could run a guy off , do you think Ryan Denney would still be here? 396092[/snapback] Well, in dundy249's defense, I believe Chuck Dickerson's radio rants were primarily responsible for running off Glenn Parker. So it HAS happened that know-it-all fans (one at least, who has the credential of once being a position coach) have run off at least one player before.
Ramius Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 And If the fans could run a guy off , do you think Ryan Denney would still be here? 396092[/snapback] I know for a fact lindell wouldnt be in camp if this were the case...
Crap Throwing Monkey Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Gandy is Dandy! 396101[/snapback] Nice tern of phase.

And if the position coach you mention is Chuck himself, I'm sure the organization holds the opinion of a fired, disgraced ex-coach in high regard.
Beerball Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Nice tern of phase. 396106[/snapback] Eat chit clown! Long story short...one of the old TV shows bozo or an imitator was in the crowd of kids and asks one a question...kids response...eat chit clown. Gotta love live TV!

My recollection could be wrong, however. But I'm not wrong in saying that Dickerson caused a lot of problems with his anti-Parker rants. Ruben Brown was essentially forced to cancel his appearances on Dickerson's show because of peer pressure from the rest of the OL over Dickerson's constant bashing of Parker. I've heard - and it wouldn't surprise me in the least - that Parker basically said "I want out of this market and away from this guy." And I couldn't really blame him, either.

Crap Throwing Monkey Posted August 2, 2005 Posted August 2, 2005 Yeah, right. And the tooth fairy told Glenn that the Giants were going to the SB, so he should sign with them. 396122[/snapback] Ziegler signed with the Giants. Parker, I believe, signed with KC.
