Carpenter = Romanowski

[StoneyBurk]

Is Bobby Carpenter another Bill Romonowski ? They are both VERY intense and although Romo was never great he was very good for a long time

 

[superpunk]

Carpenter's on Steroids?

 

[TheHustler]

Hope he doesn't spit in anyones face....

or bash a teammates face in during practice.....

Geez, you only got that idiot to compare with? How about maybe another Ohio State LBer Chris Spielman, who was also intense on the field?

Because Spielman was a mike lb. I picked Romo because he was a very productive OLB for a long time. I,m talking strickly football here not that other crap.

His football activities included thugery. So not sure what other crap is there? He was thug on the field and seemingly off the field.

 

[DLCassidy]

yeah, if you take out the roids and the the poor sportsmanship I'd be ok if Carp has as good a career as Romo.

 

[CowboyJeff]

I'll cringe if Carpenter takes a page out of Romonowski's book and only refers to himself in 3rd person.:insane:

Not sure where this is coming from Carpenter has not caused any problems at OSU and this notion of him being cocky is 1 person opinion. Judge him on his action not someone opinion.

 

[MichaelWinicki]

Carp is twice the athlete Romo and Speilman were... If he comes close to them as a player we'll all be tickled.

 

[ABQCOWBOY]

No. If I were going to compare him, I'd probably compare him to a guy like Jeff Logeman or a physically more talented Jack Del Rio. Real smart, real tough, physical LB but much more gifted athletically.

 

[Pottsville Maroons]

I think I threw up in my mouth a little when I read that comparison.

I HATE romanowski. arrogant and a poor sport.

Good lord I hope not!

I"m going with Kevin Green. They will play a similar position and have similar builds, although I think Carp may have a tad more AA. I don't mean the drinks.

Thats the first thing I thought. Then I thought Carpenter spits on people. Then I thought Carpenter beats the **** out of his teammates. Can Carpenter not be compared to any Black linebackers who have had good careers?

 

[2much2soon]

Romanowski was a talented LBer. It speaks to his character that a guy as good as him got shipped around to as many teams as he did. If he wasn't such a jerk he would of spent his whole, or most of, career in SF.

No doubt. I'm hoping for a bigger, faster Ken Norton.

No, not Green. Green was a great pass rusher but not really anything else. I think Carpenter is going to be an all around LB.

 

[CriscoKidd]

There are very few people in the NFL that I wouldn't want on the Cowboys if it meant a better shot at the title. For example, didn't care about TO's problems, as long as they didn't invest too much in him.

But I'd have a hard time rooting for any team with Romo on it. Dude is a prick. Don't care what the intentions were, but comparing romo to carpenter is disgusting.

 

[Dough Boy]

No, not Green. Green was a great pass rusher but not really anything else. I think Carpenter is going to be an all around LB.

I don't recall Green ever being asked to do anything but rush the QB. While with the Rams, Pitts and Panthers all he did was rush.

I guess I'm comparing Greens legendary rush ability to Carp rush potential. Plus they are similar builds (Green 6'3" 248lbs) and both have good football temperments. Also, I did say Carp had better AA which should translate into him being a better cover Backer in both Zone and Man.

I just don't remember Green in coverage that much. Same for Greg Lloyd.
