Mike Hull was one. Never could crack the starting lineup unless someone ahead of him got injured. However, that didn’t stop some delusional fans thinking he was the next Zach Thomas. Besides being a white bipedal linebacker, there was little he had in common with Zach Thomas.
So glad I missed that pithy commentary! lol
It was entertaining, if anything.
can we cover him and the ball with velcro?
Yeah that would have sent the 02 team to the playoffs.
Yes, If I remember correctly that was the "Lobster Trap" game as well.
I think you'll be surprised.
Yup we smoked the raiders the week before. They only went to the SB. That 02 team was legit, best of the Fiedler/ Wanny era. Lost to Culpepper in week 16, CC drop, and Brady in week 17, literally outclassed the Patriots for 56 minutes than fell apart and blew an 11 point lead, and missed the playoffs. Ray Lucas didn’t help.
I hope this is the case.....I really really do, I think the kid loves football and he is a fighter....
I remember missing that week 17 game. I was so pissed after that damn drop though because Carter was telling everybody "All I do is catch touchdowns" then he goes out and blows it.
The 11 point blown lead vs a disinterested Pats team was one of the worst losses in franchise history. It’s rare to see a team shoot themselves in the foot so many times in under 4 minutes. We made 3 HUGE special teams gaffes that cost us the game and ruined Ricky William’s 1853 yard rushing performance - the best in franchise history - he was so dominant that year. What a waste.
Jerry Rice had some of the fastest football speed of any player. His strides were crazy. I forget what it was, but San Francisco noticed that while Rice didn't have a great 40 time, he had other measurables that showed explosiveness (not that they didn't still want to draft Eddie Brown).
