I see what he's saying. No big deal.

[Moderator 3]

Just sucking up to his new team/fans.

[Inqui]

Yeah I wouldn't read too much into it. Just a player's version of coachspeak.

[hawkprey]

He just means they run a 4-3.

[The Raven]

He just means they run a 4-3.

 

That's kinda what I gathered. The system is very different, and as such, the players are a totally different make up, hence the comments about the defensive linemen being such athletic playmakers. We've had incredible dlinemen here in Baltimore, but Detroit's linemen are specimens. Real penetrating playmakers.

Guys always tell their new girlfriend that they’ve never had someone like her.

[darklight1216]

Well he's never played for Detroit before, so that's a correct statement. Now if he says he's never played for a better D then that's another story.

lol. Great analogy.

[Ravensuperfan1]

i get what you all are saying but this still bothers me.  He shouldn't have said it.

But they will try harder to please you if you do

[plesiosaur]

It's PR.  What's he gonna say, "these guys suck compared to the Ravens?"

 

Anyhow, taken literally, the statement is true; he has never played for a defense like the Lions.

[AsianRice]

I have no problem with it; I always tell my new boss how great he is.............*as soon as he turns I have nausea*

This is not a mountain.  Its an ant hill.
