Baby alyx, some penalties, but....

[general counsel]

While this is a very productive and good debate about the relative merits of baby alyxs play yesterday, here is a statement on which i believe every single person on this board can agree (and if anyone cant i invite them to post otherwise)

WE HAVE FOUND OUR LONG TERM ANSWER AT RIGHT TACKLE

Ramming speed to all

I agree completely, GC.

Well, we know we can use him as a TE eligible play don't we?

He had a decent game. The penalties didn't kill the Rams but he looked somewhat flustered during that series. He didn't give up a sack though, and had some key blocks during the running game.

Overall, I'll give him a C+ and tell him to be more disciplined.

In the Sunday Night game, they called the Pats' DL (and I really loved it) for a penalty that Barron got blamed for twice. Sorta like they did to Tucker in Nashville a few years ago. The flinch that was virtually unnoticable, and wouldn't have been flagged in most games I have ever seen, was a direct result of the defense moving toward the line as if the ball had been snapped. In the SNG, that was called delay of game against the Pats. there was also one other play where the DL did the same thing to make Barron move. I see that done a LOT, and often wonder why it isn't flagged more often. I was REALLY SURPRISED to see them flag the Pats for it last night. They usually flag the more "penalty-prone" teams with that penalty.

Barron did a VERY respectable job yesterday, and nit-picking is the only way to downgrade his effort.

Barron had a good game against a VERY good DE in Heyward.

I've been an Architect for thirty years, and (like Nick, I guess), haven't learned ANYTHING in that time.

Must be nice to be perfect comin' out of the gate.:tongue:

Nothin' personal, Nick.

coy,sorry about that i didnt realize the caps lock botton was on, as for gc i agree also , he is the right tackle of the future,and after he stops making his rookie mistakes we have a pretty good set of tackles for years to come,i would guess in 2 years they will be the best pair in the league.
