Champ Bailey - 6'0", 192
Chris McCallister - 6'1", 206
Ty Law - 5'11", 199
Fred Smoot - 5'11", 174
Ronde Barber - 5'10", 184

In open field tackling, yes. TO can bowl over anyone under 200 lbs in the open field/think stiff arm. With regards to height, TO at 6-3 has a ridiculous advantage over the guys you just listed, 9 times out of 10 any jump ball will be hauled down by TO or Randy Moss at 6-3 and 6-4 if placed in a decent spot. Why do you think the 5-8 guys on Pittsburgh's roster aren't starters? lol

Sure he might be able to bowl then over, provided he isn't tackled upon the reception..which should most often be the case.

The Ravens couldn't tackle TO upon reception when it counted.

Well..looks like TO was held in check, eh? :roll:

Edit: Where is SP33Demon?

SP33Demon and RagingBITCH both MIA after much trash-talking in this thread...

Nope, I posted in the other thread, didn't even get to see the game b/c it wasn't even broadcast nationally.

T.O = overated !

Like I said in the other thread:

Wrong. Pitt's DL > Philly OL (which has 3 starters out, one starter was just claimed off WAIVERS lmao)

Hence, Philly's time of possession = 18 minutes = neutralize TO.

You don't follow football much when you say TO is "overated" (it's overrated too btw)? Every major sports talk radio channel and their mama have said you could easily make a case that TO is midseason MVP (Rome who, ESPN 980, Andrew Ciciliano show, Dan Patrick show). It's amazing that Philly even had such a great record with that many guys out for the season, they have hardly dominated their opponents this year.

They were beating all their opponents by double digits before they ran into the AFC North...

After losing Westbrook vs Baltimore they won by 5 and before that Cleveland 3 on the road... and Westbrook got limited touches vs Pitt b/c of the fractured rib. Add to that beating the Bears by 10 and Minnesota by 11 and it's hardly dominating.

News flash obvious non NFL expert, winning by double digits 5 games in a row IS dominating in the NFL when the team everyone nutted over before they lost was the Pats, who won most of their games by a single score. Domination? This isn't college where you could possibly count on a team winning 90% of their games by 3 touch downs or more (which isn't exactly the case anymore ever since the caps on sports scholarships)
