guess he's still waiting for someone to get injured.

A dead man would be an improvement over Eddie George.

 

[Yeagermeister]

EG would probably be a good announcer. He can't be any worse than he was as a football player.

 

[Billy Bullocks]

I never was happy with him as a signing. But I never thought he would be as bad as he was

EG had some good years with Tenn. We just got him on the down hill side of his carreer. I would have taken him in his prime over Hambrick anyday.

 

[Hostile]

Let's hope he doesn't have to walk more than 3.3 yards to get somewhere. There could be issues.

 

[LaTunaNostra]

Mikey couldn't resist.

That's ok..you paid your dues last season.

Thank you B.

:laugh2:

Also, if he's going to be doing TV work, let's hope he's a little faster with the analysis than he was to the hole last year.

Play-by-play guy: "What did you think of that play, Eddie.?"

Eddie: " (clearing throat) .... well .... hmmm .... the quarterback just uh...."

Play-by-play guy: "Sorry to interrupt, Eddie, but we're on to the next play ....."

You nailed it chief........ :laugh2:

I was happy with the signing at the time. But at the time, I figured Julius would be starting, or at least splitting time with him. I never wanted him as a starter.

I'm glad Eddie George is employed, but so is T.O.! See NFL Zone for details.

EG was a great football player, it's unfortunate we got him at the end of his career vice the beginning. The guy was the Heisman Trophy winner coming out of Ohio State and between 1996 and 2000 there weren't many backs in the NFL that could touch EG's production. He may have never had a high YPC average, but one thing he was and that was durable.

Earl Campbell is generally regarded as one of the best ever who's career was cut short due to the amount of carries he received early in his career. Well over their first 6 years in the league EG had 195 more carries than Campbell and caught 89 more passes over the sam time span. I only count the first 6 seasons of Campbell's career because after during the last 3 years of his career he saw limited action (Campbell also missed 11 throughout his first 6 seasons).

The best part about Eddie George the football player is he was one of the classiest players to ever play in the NFL.

Sounds like he might possibly be a graduate of the Jerry Jones School of Broadcasting.

I agree with that.

Every time I hear the words Eddie George, I'm reminded of that quote from Al Michaels in Madden.

"Three plays, they lost yards, in comes the punt team."

 

[Boy's fan in Giant land]

As long as it has nothing to do with carrying the rock, he ought to do OK.

I opened this thread to see who was desperate enough to bring in George and get a good laugh. As usual you guys didn't disappoint me. George was a great back at one time ...but he was bum for the Boys last year and that fire has officially blown out.
