Don't bring stats into the argument.
Thailog80 Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Abraham is having a monster year....AS is having a damn fine one also.
zow2 Posted November 2, 2004 Posted November 2, 2004 Moorman should get all the AFC's votes considering the weather he has to punt in. Already Miami and Arizona have been awful conditions. No way should a dome or warm weather punter get picked if Mooman has similar stats.

drnykterstein Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 I think it was :sarcasm: 97863[/snapback] Mine wasn't. I think Schobel is overated.
rolly Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 The problem I have with Schobel is that he is inconsistent. To me, he is an average DL. I need a DL to show up every game and pressure the QB, not disappear for 2 games and then get 3 sacks in a game. Also, he sucks in run defense.

MartyBall4Buffalo Posted November 3, 2004 Posted November 3, 2004 The problem I have with schobel is he has these monster games and than nothing. Most of his good games come against crappy teams. Yeah it looks nice right now to have 5.5 sacks, but I'd rather have a John Abraham who can give you consistent pressure and cause quick throws that force turnovers. I think our turnover margin on defense would drastically improve with a true threat at defensive end.

And QB pressures are almost as good as sacks, but there are no stats kept for it.

This reminds me of all the people that call in after a game and say "If you take out Willis' 2 24 yard runs and the screen pass and the touchdown, he's no better than Travis" ALL THE PLAYS COUNT!!!

Schobel alone has been in on something like 4 turnovers (3 FF and 1 FR). And as for a consistent pass rush, this isn't Madden football. No DE is going to get 4 sacks every week. AS is always around the ball--against the run and pass-- and always puts pressure on the QB. He might not be to the level of a John Abraham--then again, Schobel can't play against Bledsoe twice a year to pad his stats (e.g., 3 of Abraham's sacks were against DB this year).

Schobel never gets double teamed.
