Free has allowed 22 pressures, which includes sacks and QB hits.

However, keep in mind the numbers Brandt is offering INCLUDES: sacks, QB hits & pressures.

So Parnell is at 40 and Free is at 22 for the season.

In Parnell's defense I think his run blocking has been better than Free's.

Also Free is more of a "penalty machine" than what Parnell is.

If you could combine Free's passblocking with Parnells' run-blocking and penalty discipline and you would have one VG RT.

I'd take Parnell over Free any day... but I don't think either are anything special. We'd still need to upgrade if we kept Parnell.

Someone better run over and check on X. There is no way he can leave this bait in the trap.

@xwalker will be here shortly with a list of expert excuses.

X talks from deep study and a long history of evaluating things around the NFL. As to stats, Percy is at the top of the list for applied stats.

But the most accomplished is probably AdamJT....but excuse me, what was your point?

His point was pretty clear. What are you struggling with?

Thanks for the info, I knew someone on here would know Free's stats!

lol

I KNOW you know better than that....you're just ruffling feathers is my guess.

Pretty strong correlation, generally, between interceptions and QB pressures.

Pressures are like holds in baseball. They are too vague and mean very little.

You can debate Free VS. Parnell all day but the truth is they chose between two lackluster RT's

If we get eliminated from the playoffs I would sit Romo and roll with Green at RT

At some point it would be nice to get him some snaps.

Im very leary about that right now with Romo coming back, his injury issues and his age. Free is at leasr decent in pass pro and he is seasoned. I dont want a kid on the job with Romo's career and our short term future on the line.

Id like to see them pull the plug on both Romo and Free if we get eliminated from the playoffs

Based on the title alone I'd say Free ranks somewhere above most pressures allowed.

Einstein once stated that it doesn't pay to argue with a fool. There are those that just won't understand...huh, homie?

Sorry, a discussion presented in abstract, as was yours with X, still has a maximum effect range of zero meters.

Now, run along as if you don't understand a retort upon insult.

Thanks, I was waiting for someone to post the real numbers. Parnell was overpaid, but so it Free at 6MM. The problem is that there aren't many quality RTs in football right now, which is why they were willing to spend a 3rd on Chaz Green and spend so much development time on Darrion Weems.

I'm sincerely asking you, what are you struggling with? First off, what you responded to was a lighthearted jab, you then asked "What was your point" - I am asking you, disregarding the xwalker love affair, what is it that you're having trouble understanding?

We're not deciphering some Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics here, but if you need the paper and crayons brought out, I'll get right to it.

Just run along, Son...and stay away from second person useages. Or learn the applications for English language.

A discussion is conducted in the first or third person...and why presenting nothing more than different levels of insult are lamely hid behind for board talk or knowledge on subject.

Quite a few players are building cases for retention beyond this season...and a bunch of running backs will be given study during the off season. Free is but one of many.

I'm glad to see you're acknowledging how ridiculous your response was to the initial post. Have a good day, "homie/son".
