Deangelo Williams appreciation thread


John Fox

Recommended Posts

This guy worked his ass off yesterday. It's a shame nobody else on the team was motivated by how hard he was working to close out the game.

This isn't about the loss though. Deangelo is one hell of a person. His talent goes unrecognized, but I doubt he even cares about stuff like that, which shows what a great person he is. If we had won that game, some serious MVP talk would have started up.

sh*t, how did I end up talking about the loss again? :(

True, he's definitely the hardest worker on the field... he isn't the best or most talented guy on the field, but he has amazing work ethic, and that can go A LONG way (ask Jerry Rice, not the fastest guy, but damn he worked like a fuging football machine and is GOAT)

    • I wouldn't argue he's handled things well in Cleveland since his draft tumble. I give him credit for that. Draft eval really only matters if they got it right. And with Shedeur, I think time will beat out that they did. Like others, he'll leave behind some cool highligh reels, but something less than a great career. 
    • I don't put Bryce any higher than that, but I don't put Murray up there either.  And we've touched on the reason: an unfortunate tendency to choke. You can have all the best stats in any game you play in, but if you choke at a crucial point and lose the game, guess how much those stats count for? And I will at least admit this when it comes to Bryce: his game performances of late definitely don't reflect choking. Just the opposite, in fact.
    • It's a matter of perspective. Hell, TB12 was skipped over 198 times for example. I mean, Montana, Wilson, Dak and a few others were skipped many times before they were drafted. Warner and Romo went undrafted for Pete's sake. Don't get me started on misses (and not just QBs).  His attitude didn't help, but it was reported just as much that scouts/execs didn't necessarily believe he was a day one or two guy. Like I suggested, we'll never know the whole story. Moreover, you can't get around the fact that he's handled his situation in Cleveland with flying colors. That's been widely reported as well.
