Anthony Spencer - Not as bad as I orginally thought...

[BrAinPaiNt]

He is a bum until proven otherwise.

 

[DallasDomination]

Besides having some decent speed on the edge he hasnt showed much of anything else.

 

[Vintage]

Spencer had almost as many arrests (1.0) as sacks (1.5).

Yeah, yeah, not playing on 3rd down....

You'd think you'd get more production than 1.5 sacks from a 1st round draft pick 2 years ago. Then again... Bobby Carpenter.

 

[irvin4evs]

Agreed.

And I find it funny how after 2 years Spencer has done less then Carp did in his FIRST year alone, yet Spencer gets a break and Carp is considered the anti-christ.

This is hilariously false.

 

[Monster Heel]

Spencer has had more opportunities than Carpenter and he's done just as little. By my calculations, that means Spencer has done less given that he's had more opportunity.

 

[AbeBeta]

Agreed.

And I find it funny how after 2 years Spencer has done less then Carp did in his FIRST year alone, yet Spencer gets a break and Carp is considered the anti-christ.

Could it be because Spencer actually gets on the field as part of the defensive rotation?

Nah, that couldn't be it.

It's like whiney little ***** day this entire off-season.

Everyone sucks. Wha-wha-wha.



(Oh, except Ware... Mr. D POV-candidate. He's good. But Spencer? He sucks because he is not Ware...)

No, he sucks because he was a first round pick who can't get a guy drafted in 1998 off the roster or the field.

Yeah. That's right. Own it! HE SUCKS! Yell it! You clearly are an awesome talent evaluator. Tell us like it is!!! 2nd year player does not oust incumbent pro bowler therefore is CRAP!





(but protip: you might want to wait and see what happens during training camp before you proclaim with such certainty, because you might end up looking like a half-cocked dumb arse).

protip: When Spencer is part time player at best for the 3rd year and the Cowboys start looking into drafting yet another solution for the hole at LOLB, don't ask why.

ooooooooooooh DUDE CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME WITH THAT AWESOME CRYSTAL BALL YOU OWN. TIA.

 

[cobra]

Yeah, he gets on the field... and still hasn't done as much as Carp did in the last half of his rookie year.

You can keep saying that. But saying it doesn't make it true.

 

[Vintage]

I'm hoping Spencer has a career year next year.

4 sacks.

Cmon Spencer. I still believe.

 

[cobra]

Cmon Spencer. I still believe.

You shouldn't. We clearly have enough evidence to make conclusive determinations about his suckitude. I mean, last year he was in his second year and he couldn't push crappy-*** incumbent Pro Bowler Ellis out of a job. That's all you need to know. What kind of second year player wouldn't win that job outright? A sucky one, that kind!

I mean, seriously, who has ever heard of a player not starting until his third year? That's ridiculous.

 

[AbeBeta]

Yeah, he gets on the field... and still hasn't done as much as Carp did in the last half of his rookie year.

Sad.

Right. So when did Carp have a 30+ tackle season again? He had a couple of nice games but Spencer is far and away the stronger player.

Spencer took snaps from Ellis. Carpenter lost snaps to guys like Justin Rogers

 

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Yeah, except that it's actually true.


As far as what's hilarious... that would be your face.

That made me laugh.

 

[ThreeSportStar80]

Spencer needs to improve his work ethic... Show that he wants to become a beast.

ROFL. We've approached the point where we are questioning one player's ability by comparing it to another LBer who had a 30 tackle season.

Absolute roflcopter.

We've come to the point where some know-it-alls like to declare that a player sucks because he did not beat out an incumbent Pro Bowler in their second season (though ended up taking the majority of the snaps by the end of their second year, by the way).

We've come to the point where some know-it-alls give players crap because they are not some meaningless garbage like "beast" or "dominant" in their first two years.

We've come to the point where some like to crap on young players with an upside in their first two years as if you can judge from limited playing time.

In short, we've come to a place where some caca-heads would be saying that Randy White "sucks" and is worthless because he was a first rounder who couldn't start until he changed positions in his third year.

Do you realize how MORONIC you guys sound?

Randy White was drafted #2 OVERALL, and he did not play anything but special teams his first two years because he was behind a Pro Bowler, Lee Roy Jordan. Then, in his third season, Randy lost out on the job to replace Jordan to Bob Breunig. Only then was Randy moved from MLB to DT, and the rest is history.

You dolts are now sitting here acting like Spencer is worthless because he was not starting ahead of Ellis last year (his second), who was coming off a Pro Bowl year.

But, I guess you geniuses know the future and are amazing talent evaluators, right?

Actually, hell no. You're just talking out of your *****.
