Matt Roth started a fight? I am SHOCKED

Amen - I am glad he has energy and brings some attitude - BUT when is he going to turn that into production? Of all the picks in this draft I think Roth was my most least favorite. I just don't see him being as talented as he was projected. I hope he proves me wrong but so far I am not at all impressed.

Exactly.... the combine workout helped him out in getting picked higher. People like him for the pre-draft college hoopla.... Thinking of #98 brings back memories of Oklahoma LB Brian Bosworth and Michigan Sate OT Tony Mandarich

The question on Roth has NEVER been dedication. He's known as a lunch pail guy who goes hard on every snap.

The question is his size. He has short arms and can't get by bigger offensive linemen. He's quick, and tenacious, but that won't always translate into production at the NFL level. Luckily, there's weight training. It won't lengthen his arms, but it will give him more power at the point of attack. Give him time. Thankfully, he's quick and tenacious but not big. I'd rather have that than a slow, lazy jacked guy (no Wright comments please... he's not SLOW he's just out of shape... he's very quick for a guy his size).

I think they should give him a shot at MLB, I would love to see Roth filling a hole the runningback on the opposing team is trying to run through. He may be too slow for that but if he doesn't pan out at DE I would like to see it. He is still a rookie and we shouldnt exspect to see him come in here and dominate like he is JT already.

If not maybe MLB possibly DT if he adds some weight.
 
The fight was actually quite rediuclous and boring....
THAT IS OF COURSE until Jason Taylor showed Roth how it's done and grabed the back of the center and whipped him probably 5 or 6 yards across the field..i keep replaying it over and over again.
 
whoops. there it isn't.

I wish his mean streak would carry onto the field at game time. I want to see him tear somebodyup in the game.

Losman or Feidler perhaps? These are just names I drew out of a hat.

This is complete coincedence except for the fact that these were the only 2 names in the hat. :lol:

its all about learning the system. He needs a few more moves in the NFL to get to the QB. I expect Roth to bear fruit mid season at the earliest imo.

I read that article too. That's what is now expected, which would be fine for a second rounder.

I hope he does. I hope his temper gains a lot of penalty flags that could cause the fins games, if he even plays.

I hope he pulls a boneheaded Bills fan out of the crowd like, I don't know, maybe you? And then gets a flag for "roughing the sweat hog".

:D
 
Anybody have a link? What I've read is that it was over so quick that it was hard to tell much of who was in the fight.
