False Start, Number 74.

[D Rock]

Willie Colon can move closer to the center, but he still can't resist false starts. I guess it wasn't anything to do with vision problems!

Colon is a wasted 5million that should be in Wallace pocket. Until the organization wake up and dump him and Lergursky, the Oline will continue to look the same.

Legursky is a backup on a one year tender worth $1.26M.

Colon is a starter who was signed to a five year deal with a SB of $6M.

They serve different roles.

Some of these posts are comical. I guess this is expected after a loss. Let's see- IF you take Colon off the team and give Wallace his $5 mil, and then you take Legs off the team, who's playing along the OL last night?

OK- I told myself last night that I was gonna refrain from commenting today- I'll go back to lurking...

And for the record, the OL didn't play all that badly last night- considering what all they've been through already.

I thought the O-Line was bad to start, then got better in pass-protection, then shat the bed at the end...it was really deflating. I expected a better running effort than what we saw & the three sacks in the end were just rubbing it in.

LOL. I heard a rumor it was too hard to hear the snap count from way out there at tackle. Maybe he needs to play center.

Ha ! Maybe they can use traffic signals at the end of the field for Willie to see. We are all wrong about Wilie because Arians himself said " Willie Colon is the best right tackle in the NFL " The dredlocks, fatass appearance also makes Colon look a lot cooler don't you think ?

I agree. Given that we went two men down I think the OL did well. Puting Legursky in at RG in place of Foster just took a bad situation to worse. I think Colon is going to excellent at OG. Give the guy a break. he was playing his first real game in almost two years. I think the combination of adrenaline and a little fatique may have been a factor in his jumping. I think he will get better every week.

If he didn't have a history of false starts, I could understand your point. But in the end, he is still Willie Colon, so I do not understand your point.

Oviedo I'm usually in your corner bud D Rock, he summed up how I feel about Colon.

[fordfixer]

It's the thin Denver air sound don't travel as far there

[flippy]

Maybe Colon was scared the DT was gonna run past him?

[NorthCoast]

heard a rumor he is deaf in his right ear...splains everything.

[fezziwig]

What was his excuse when he was right tackle ? He had his left ear towards the signal caller then. I thought he was finally going to show his worth at being a guard because God knows he stunk as a tackle and I have a feeling he will be just as lousy at guard. Just another Dominican they're trying to pass off as a Cuban.

[D Rock]

I will give Colon this: He is at least 2x or 3x better than Kemoeatu as a LG.

Why?

false start - 5 yards
holding - 10 yards
personal foul - 15 yards


at least Colon is on the low end of that list
