It was in the heat of the moment during competition though. N although it did injur gurode and was horrible, if Alberts goal was to end andres carrier or cause permanent damage, he could have. It was horrible and there is no place for that at all but shouldnt be career suspension especailly when the guy it happend to didnt even warrant it as such.

Gurode could have lost an eye or something. He goal was to cause permanent damage lol. Youre right it was the heat of the moment and it could have been worse. But his goal was to cause permanent damage. Cleat to face on defenseless opponent? Come on bulldog, that says permanent damage intentions.

I dont get u buddy, u always mention how Minny killed dalls when flozell went down. Was it not Free than came into the game? I like Free cause of his versatility, but im not sure if i want him protecting Romo's blindside. I woulda been for acquiring Brown for competition in camp and let the best man play.

Jamal Brown can play both left and right tackle and I think he has been a pro bowl player.

The offensive line will be fine. Even if it breaks down some plays Romo scrambles well and throws on the run.

Offensive tackles are like underwear.They`re not exciteing but you need a couple of good ones and it never hurts to have a good back up...You know in case of a blow out or something.

Nothing like a Tony Mandarich at your disposal.

I remember the year Dallas drafted Troy Aikman they had the first pick in the draft.You know there were a few writers in town who wanted us to take Mandarich.Geesh what a disaster that would have been.

I believe he might have been another benefit of that Herschel Walker 9 man trade plus draft picks to the Minesotta Vikings.

I just wonder how the Steelers are going to do without Ben.

Pray your defense scores a few defensive touchdowns or it could be 3 and outs or a bunch of field goals.

Comming into a game when your starter goes down with injury, a Playoff game none the less, is completey different than preparing as a starter and know you are starting. You always practice with the mindset that you need to be ready if called upon, buts its not that easy. You get thrown in to your first playoff game against a premier pass rushing team in the heat of a playoff game with momentum on the other teams side. Not an easy task. Free did as well as he could in that situation. Yeah they beat him up but he will be a solid player this year.
