PFT: Flozell Adams becomes protoypical right tackle

[Meat-O-Rama]

He is finally on a side where he can hear the snap count.

No, he plays for Pittsburgh so they don't call his false starts and holds.

Flow was a top 10 LT. Very good. Not great, not Pro Bowl really, but very good. What kept him from being better was his penalties. He was usually able to handle the best past rushers there were. Very few ever got more than one or two sacks on him in any game.

 

[utrunner07]

I told all of ya'll letting him go was a HUGE mistake when it happened, very few agreed.

 

[bsheeern]

Sign them to head coaching/GM positions now. They were right.

They also wanted Jared Gaither. They were right...wait.

Don't be ridiculous. Play Flozell at RT and who plays LT for the Cowboys? Colombo?

Come on. Use your brain.

Ahhhh the GM's/coaches that use their hindsight 20/20 vision at it again. Flozell needed a change of scenery. Did he need to be moved to right tackle? Probably so but he also need to go somewhere else so he could earn his job again and not just be penciled in. The man is still a beast and was a franchise LT for over a decade. But his time here was done

Are we ruing?

very few pass rushers get more than one or two sacks against any tackle in any game

Oh,really?? The "Stealers"have better coaches;etc?? What I am referring to goes back to the 70's....check out the history.......nahhhhhh,I can see you woudn't bother! There have been a DOCUMENTED 23-35 players from that franchise that have DIED of steroids complications from that era!!! They obviously cheated to win....they were stronger than anypne else,more physical,more dirty! Fast forward to their SB against Seattle....the biggest sham of a spoting event on US soil. All critical calls and non-calls went the "Stealers"way. Why would a respected HC like Holmgren say basically the same thing at the end of that game?? See the game!

Just 2 games ago,James Harrison(who beat up his wife over a cell phone dispute) deliberately hit 2 helpless offensive players in the helmet(in the open field) resulting in those 2 being knocked out and NO FLAGS!! Oh, and did you hear about the adventures of Big Ben Rapistberger??! So, don't come at me with anything that that scum organization does is legit.

Great way to look uninformed.

Well, this year Free would have played LT.

 

[Cover 2]

It is not ironic that Flozell now has very few issues when it comes to penalties. Hummmm,could it be because he is wearing the black and yellow??!

Once again, this proves my pont about that team,the "Stealers" are given special treatment my the league. The (looney)Rooney Rules win out above all.

Flozell is deaf in his right ear, so now that he's playing right tackle his good ear is facing toward the quarterback. That would be my guess as to why his penalties are down, because most of his penalties came from false starts.

Yes we would be 5-1 with him right now.

Because he lost?

Just 2 games ago,James Harrison(who beat up his wife over a cell phone dispute) deliberately hit 2 helpless offensive players in the helmet(in the open field) resulting in those 2 being knocked out and NO FLAGS!!

That hit on Cribs was legal. Jeeze, why don't you make them put on a dress and swish around.

how boat Super Bowl 43 with the Kurt Warner "fumble" and and the not calling excessive celebration where Holmes did the baby powder thing like L.James

Going straight at a guys head with your helmet to try to put him out of the game is not legal, and it shouldn't be. I don't give a **** if you think it's not manly enough, a GAME is not worth guys turning into vegetables at 50 because their brains were destroyed by the devastating trauma that comes with some of these helmet to helmet hits.

 

[BAZ]

Yeah, it is. Cribbs took off like a running back so he can be tackled like that. You are so cure when you're angry.

 

[Baileyneverfailey]

I am so cure? Check your english broseph. Also, it can still be called unnecessary roughness even on a runner, and should. It doesn't matter how many times a bunch of redneck idiot fans call players ******* for not wanting to get turned into a vegetable, the NFL is going to find a way to get those types of hits out of the game.

Wow, that was a rambling bunch of irrelevant nonsense.

So, again, how does that relate to Flozell Adams playing better as a Steelers?

Is Flozell taking steroids?

Is he jumping off sides and the refs aren't calling it?

Or is it that the Steelers put him in a position to succeed, and he has better coaching?

Ssshhh!

You're interrupting a most eloquent "Stealers are cheaters" rant. :laugh2:

how so

 

[burmafrd]

its not about sacks as much as it is about pressure. That is what is uninformed.
