Witten does not wear thigh pads.

I think he should wear all the padding he can comfortably play in, but I'd rather see him lower his shoulder every now and then to punish smaller tacklers.
 
Sometimes, he doesn't even wear a helmet. But.....

he still shows up and plays, hurt or not. Broken jaw? No problems! Busted ribs? No problem. See the difference?
 
I, too, seldom wear thighpads. Witten and I have the same game.
 
Most receivers don't wear them. Probably for the same reason Swimmer's shave themselves, they believe it slows them down.

That's why we shave ourselves? OOOOHHHKAAAY, good to know!

The point was that it is irrelevant if a player where's thigh pads yet Dez was called stupid for not wearing any.

Just wanted to see if Witten would be called the same.

Really? Wow, but then I cant remember the last time I looked at his thighs. (Not that theres anything wrong with that)

And that is where you see the double standard.

Jason Witten is a poster child for a lot of hypocrites on this forum, where as everyone see's Dez Bryant as more literally a child, who is easily influenced, and not very intelligent.

I could get more into it, but I really don't want to.

This sounds familiar, where have I heard this before?

Stupid athletes trying to gain a physiological and psychological edge.

FYI: Most receiving types in the NFL don't.

My one word answer: So.

Indeed but one fan in particular has an idiotic opinion that not wearing thigh pads will subvert the game of football. Similar to how not wearing knee braces, mouth pieces and butt pads is slowing eroding the game. :laugh2:

I worded it weirdly, but you know what I meant. Don't be an ***.
