I stick with the theory that with nicknames, shorter is better, ergo - Mojo. :)

Plus... I don't like Shannon Sharp! Ha! :cool:

This statement is well put...

It’s the veteran acumen of Henderson and Spicer, and the development of Meier, that seem to ensure the future of this line in the face of some big changes.

Also, is "Pocket Hercules" Jones-Drew?

I think he's talking about the Regular Season game, not the Playoff game.

[quote][b]maize n blue (7/15/2008)[/b][hr][quote][b]Chooch (7/15/2008)[/b][hr]One thing that I found interesting about this analysis is the statement:

"[font="Times New Roman"][size="+1"]...Hayward was replaced by a rotation of Bobby McCray, who put up 10 sacks in 2006, and Clint Ingram, a 'tweener linebacker/end with some pass-rush ability...[/size][/font]"

I can't remember C. Ingram ever really playing with his hand on the ground, but I could be wrong. Could he be talking about J. Mincey and/or K. Pettway? Does anyone know if C. Ingram has this ability?[/quote]

He's talking about Hawkins...[/quote]

Yeah, I see that he's changed that now.

Football Outsiders Doug Farrar has posted an [url=http://www.footballoutsiders.com/2008/07/14/ramblings/every-play-counts/6367/]article[/url] about the Jacksonville Defensive front four with a close look at the regular season game vs. Pittsburgh.

He examines pretty much everyone along the line (depth as well) and even touches on the draft picks.
