It would be interesting for the stats gurus to dig up how many sacks Lane allowed.

I sort of dig Tank's attitude to be honest.
I wouldn’t it if he backed it up or if it was applicable. So far all he’s done is called out a guy for making a lot of money when he’s the one who put off surgery until he got paid so that makes no sense and makes him look hypocritical. Then he’s also talking trash to the same team/player he has NEVER had a sack against which makes no sense. Then he talked trash to a two time SB MVP when he’s never even sniffed a Super Bowl.

Imagine if Blake Bortles was talking trash to the Cowboys after last years game, we would be laughing or butts off. Imagine if Mark Sanchez was talking trash to Tom Brady (that’s a bit more extreme). His trash talking is an epic failure in the trash talking world.

Yeah, but I really don't think it's as serious as that.

Eh, may not be but I personally think he sounds foolish. Once he gets a few sacks and a SB ring it would be more appropriate.

Imagine if Erek Flowers still played for the Giants and was talking trash to Tank, after Tank handled him, and we just won a Super Bowl. It would be outrageous and hilariously inappropriate in the trash talking world.

I just don’t understand talking smack to someone about something your guilty of yourself and have nothing to show for it. It’s not even like it’s the first time they’ll play each other. Tank has played against Lane before, and the Eagles, and has ZERO sacks! So now he decides to talk smack?

Lol, whatever Tank. Guess someone has to take Beasley’s place, at least he’s not talking trash to his fans and about his own team.

Maybe he's trying to motivate himself to do better. I think I remember him backing up his trash talk the last time he did it, but I'm vague on the details, so I could be wrong.

As long as they have to double him, this is a push in my book. Hard to brag about stonewalling a guy you can’t handle one on one with the game on the line. But I agree it’s dumb to specifically talk smack regarding sacks of a player you don’t actually sack.

True true...good point, never thought of the double team aspect. I wonder how many times they did double team him with Lane since Lane is pretty dang good himself but I’m way too lazy to try and dig that up.

I saw a random dude on another site say he checked last year’s games and it was basically “a lot” in pass rush situations, but that of course means nothing. That’s the extent of my unlaziness, too.

June news cycle in the NFL...

Lawrence wants to hit Wentz.

Johnson wants to stop Lawrence from hitting Wentz.

What a shocker!

I’m sorry, I thought I was a fan in a public forum not a football player using social media to talk trash to other teams and players that have accomplished more than I ever will and about things I did myself.

Perhaps you’re confused, just like Tank. He’s talking trash about humbling a QB for getting a big contract when he was the one holding off on surgery until he got his money. Talk about needing to be humbled. Not to mention, how many sacks does he have against the Eagles? Oh that’s right, ZERO! How many Super Bowl teams has he even been a part of? ZERO.

Next thing you know he’ll be talking trash about a 2 time Super Bowl MVP (who hasn’t started only one game in his career) for getting sacks on him while going against one of the worst O lines, and lineman in the league :rolleyes:

Perhaps he should pick who he’s gonna run his mouth off too a little more wisely. He looks like an idiot.
I took as him saying, Wentz is crap and we are going to expose him. But he was trying to be nice about it. He used the word "WE" which includes our secondary. If he would have said he himself (as in one person) was going to humble him then we would've looked stupid.

Gotchya, different way of looking at it. I didn’t interpret it like that at all. Regardless, as I’ve said, Tank has been one of my favorite players for awhile even when people were bashing him during the hold out. I just wish he would chill a bit on all the chatter and do more talking on the field.

Dude who has 0 sacks vs a team and disappears after 4 games the past 2 seasons and just got paid big, should just shut up and figure out how he can actually get a a sack vs the eagles and how he can not disappear after 4 games.

The refs could also help by blowing the whistle when he is held against the Eagles.
