It's official, Parcells was right about Flozell....

Unfortunately the only thing remembered about Erik Williams is the "hands to the face" rule

Flo really shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as the pre-injury Big E who played at an All-Pro level. E was nasty, had great pride and would consistently dominate on almost every play. The post-injury E was robbed of a lot of his mobility and was a different player altogether.

LA was a dominator in his prime and one of the all-time greats. On a good day, Flo doesn't compare to what he was.

If Flo played up to his potential he would be a Pro Bowler. He would still be a notch below Pace, Ogden and Walter Jones.

Maybe it's Cowboy bias, but pre-injury Erik Williams and Larry Allen (during his prime) were the two best O-linemen I've ever seen. Think I'm exaggerating about Big E? Just ask William Fuller and Reggie White. Fuller practically begged to be taken off the field. To me, Big E symbolizes the Greek tragedy that was the early-90's Cowboys better than anyone (even Michael Irvin.)

By whom? If that's all you remember, then you weren't paying very close attention.

Fair enough, but I think any real football fan will recognize how good Big E was. The guy was simply dominant.
