Yeah, but, in todays baby ass NFL and the fans. Both Irvin and Carter would be "head cases". lol.


Take it from me. Cris Carter was and would have been a much greater headcase than Irvin. You think T.O. was bad.

I certainly give Green the speed edge. The dude can fly. Dez probably has the better hands, and is more physical.

Probably comparing apples to apples. Both should be outstanding pro players.

I dont think Green is as "fast" as some of you think. And I'm a UGA guy and see him play every week. I'd be surprised if he runs much faster than 4.5, which is still plenty fast enough.

Love him as a prospect but I think he will struggle a little more initially in the NFL than Bryant because he isnt as physical. I'm also not sure if he's as quick in and out of his breaks as Bryant is. Both have unbelievable hands and body control. I think Bryant might be a little better route runner right now too, though Green improved quite a bit this past yr.

See that is the thing I am talking about. I don't care for all this straight-line speed because often times, those ultra-fast guys have way too much trouble getting in and out of their breaks---this is where their speed hurts them. Irvin was not that fast, but he was very quick in getting in and out of his breaks, like Dez. Take a look at the "best WR in the division"---according to a certain individual---Jackson is as fast as they come, but becausxe o9f his speed, he basically can mainly run go routes and not much else, which does not make him the best WR in the division, just only the best homerun-hitter, if I can use that metaphor in football.

I would never of wanted Carter on this team. I was just making a point as to how pussified the fans and the NFL are becoming.

And, T.O. was bad just because the guy is a POS. I couldn't of cared less how he was in the locker room. I never wanted that **** in Dallas in the first place. He can kiss my ass.
