Upgrade Talk Serves as Motivation for Odom

Staying healthy?

Short memories? Odom was healthy for every single game in 04 and 05 and in those 32 games manufactured a grand total of 4 sacks. So why is health suddenly an excuse?

Odom's average production per 16 games is 2 sacks and 27 total tackles.

I'm glad to see he finally is motivated. His first goal will be to win back the job laboy took from him.

 

If the man says hes going to improve believe him. If ya aint got faith in the team why be a fan?

 

its not the team, its the player... like if LT said that he was going to become a probowler would u believe him

 

Yeah. Tomlinson always makes the probowl

 

Well I'll have my fingers crossed. But honestly, Ford is the guy I'm most excitded about. Maybe it's the newness, or maybe it's the hope that he can get to the QB better than what we have at RDE.

 

Not him, our LT. Players say optimistic things every year. If there isn't any reason that they've been held back, what's changing to believe them? Odom may have a reason with the sleep apnea, but the injury is a serious question mark. I hope he can change, but we'll have to see.

Blind faith doesn't make for very good fans. Or at least not ones that I want to discuss team things with.

 

haha. :grrhee:

 

Yes, and that's exactly what happened.

In the fourth quarter of the 'Skins game, Thompson was fantastic, making 3-4 big plays and shutting down receivers.

He was absolutely dominant for fifteen minutes....which is about fifteen minutes more than he's had for the rest of his career combined.

 

What condition jeff..

'm not going to be too hard on a rookie who had the condition he had in '04.
--------------------

My God was odom terminally ill in 04? He did start 8 games that year but after the first 5 games actually lost his job to bo schobel of all people. I guess we could just toss his rookie year as a throw away but jevon kearse had his best season as a rookie. He plays DE not quarterback and played in the sec not a div 3 school.

Of course i'm pulling for the guy he's a bama product but it's hard not to be cynical with this team the last few years where we see players flatten out or even decline with age and experience.
