In no way does this guy deserve near the hate that he receives. What should have done? Turn down the money, say NO...THATS TOO MUCH! Would you have? LOL
He is what he is,.... a good solid player who impacts a lot of plays. He may never be a pro bowl type player but HE IS a guy that is unselfish and goes about his job in a workmanlike manner. He is a guy that might not make the play, but due to his actions he influences A LOT of plays that others clean up. Kind of guy that will be sorely missed when he is gone. Asked to play multiple positions and does so without complaint. Very versatile. Soooo, Hate away..... but in the end we are very lucky to have him as a Cowboy.
"Neezy" ?!?! What are you referring to with that & what is that?! Please elaborate young fellaYou even admitted not knowing the poster I was replying to. I knew whom he was, yet you chided in with “he could be part of the new group that arrived and does know the narrative.” Then you backtrack when you say that you know Crawford gets hate and I point out that the poster I was replying to said he “doesn’t get hate”
Then neezy says I’m coming at you. I wasn’t. I was adding more context to help you underatand. So that you don’t feel like new members are being targeted for their join date, just being given context on the forum’s own narrative that predates Nov 2017.
See, I didn’t want to have to spend 10 posts detailing this out for you. I reckon, if you re-read my original post that triggered you, you might see it differently now.
Yes, if you went through my posts, you would see I’m very fair. Until I’m attacked or, in your case, my posts are picked apart so that you can get a pat on the head for pointing at some pretend meanie.
Could you and I maybe take this to an OT thread if you want to continue? I feel bad for the OP that you two have done this to his thread. I can’t NOT reply, either, so I’m just as complicit
He is awful at DE. They have to move him back inside where he would be a perfect rotational guy. I heard he lost a lot of weight to play DE this season. Given the latest David Irving screw up I hope they get him on the sumo diet and get him back at DT.
Solid rotational pro.
Not Crawford’s fault that our FO brain-pharted on his contract numbers.
Colossal miscalculation by the FO. They gambled on him being the next star 3T in this league before he put anything on film showing he was that guy.
I don't blame him, I blame Jones and co for that blunder in thinking they outsmarted everyone.
However, he's a lunch pail leader and a versatile piece on the DL who shows up every week and is well respected. I do think the FO learned a thing about counting their chickens before they hatch after getting burned, they've been much more prudent in handing out big deals after this one.
He's not awful at DE. He's just average there.
That seems to be a common theme, our FO thinking they outsmarted every other team in the league.
Brandon Carr 2.0.
If Crawford now or Carr a few years ago were making half as much money then the hate wouldn't be as bad.
I like him, I like his reliability and versatility. You know what you'll get from the guy and he contributes to a lot of things, he's often near the QB, just rarely gets home. I just wish it was around 5 or 6 million per year instead of 9. Some on here will say that even this is too much.
::;;'-)))Short for Black and Mild. Why, I have no idea. We’ve always called them that, coming from my Army days
Agree...and another reason why I’m still questioning the ability of our current FO structure, coupled with the Garrett / Linehan / Marinelli triumvirate, to get us to the promised land.
No no. I mean he’s Canadian and so am I so obviously I want him to succeedSo confused about the Canadian thing lol. You have a specific opinion on him being Canadian?
He is actually better at LDE imo since he is so sturdy against the runHe's not awful at DE. He's just average there.
LOL Collins
LOL Irving
and DLaw had one good year
TCrawford has had 4 good years.......that makes him our bet DL the last 4 years
He can't be both......he is way underrated around here because they think he is overpaidCrawford had many average years. Do not equate good with average.
Crawford is overrated and overpaid.
He can't be both......he is way underrated around here because they think he is overpaid
Lol you already know what he means. this kid is as emotionally unstable as bourdain."Neezy" ?!?! What are you referring to with that & what is that?! Please elaborate young fella
