    Pretty cool feeling when you actually have an offensive line, that too a dominant one that owned the trenches.

    Not only that, but was able to dominate during the run and shoot years without the benefit of a TE.

    Who else had money on SamFisher saying something like that?

    I think SamFisher was something like 4:1 odds.

    Anybody else see that coming? That was easy money.

    Some people still have problem with people that do what their employer tells them to do. I don't have a problem with former Oiler players, just their a$$hollic owner.

    Back to the original topic, Bruce is a 1st ballot HOFer for his excellance & longevity! Bad a$$ on the field & a heckofa good guy off. Congrats a little early, Bruce!

    LOL, typical uneducated titan fan. Munchak never played for the titans.

    Matthews deserves to be in there on the first ballot. Great player and great guy. I had the chance to get to know him (and Munchak) when they worked very closely with the charity organization my Dad worked for. Just an amazing guy on and off the field. Both of them. 110% CLASS.

    Munchak, Matthews, Steinkhuler.....man 3 great picks in the first round.

    :D

    And then Hopkins later....

    Yep, an offensive line is important.

    You listening Bob McNair?

    No kidding... btw, who did we pass over in the 1st round to pick up Travis Johnson (a marginal talent, who doesn't even fit the current system)?

    Jamaal Brown is the ANCHOR of the New Orleans line, and happens to be starting in the pro-bowl for the NFC. But yea... Charlie says there isn't a "difference maker" at O-line for the club, so we don't draft one (he also says the O-line isn't the problem, and Seth Wand and Todd Wade are more than adequate... yea... :rolleyes: )
