Actually if you had read what I wrote and not just passed your eyes over the words you would have seen that the point I was making was that there are more than one type of player that is successful on the DL. Some bigger, some quicker with better technique. I NEVER compared Odrick to Randle smart guy! I only pointed out that there is more than one way to be successful at that position.
If you paid attention to what you said you'd know that Rich's comment was correct. Randle never played 1 technique tackle, the team always had a 4 man front. Bringing his name up is pointless.
You never compared the two? You compared their sizes. You compared their positions. It made no sense, take your pills and calm down.
I did not insult anyone's post to begin with, I come in here with an open mind because everyone on this board is a fan of my favorite team. However, if you insult me then I am going to insult you.
The only things I have said are that seem to be in dispute
1. John Randle lined up over center at times in his career (a fact)
2. That Jared Odrick and John Randle are not the same size player (a fact)
3. That different size players have succeeded at NT (a fact)
None of that should have been controversial but you chose to make it that way. I never disputed that Randle primarily played in a 43, or that at times he didn't lineup at DE. However, that doesn't change the fact that he also lined up at nose too!
A little bit of courtesy and thought before you post would go a long way.
