HSKRNOKC Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Lets keep it clean but who else is absolutely sick of watching other teams exploit his size? Quote Link to comment
melscott62 Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I see no reason to play him anymore. the is no way that ricky therase(sp?) could possibly be any worse. give the kid a chance, lets see what he can do. thats what Oklahoma did after the oregon game with their DB's Quote Link to comment
BIGREDFAN_in_OMAHA Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 He may be a good athlete but that obviously doesn't make up for his size. It does little good to have a vertical jump of 40 inches if you can't be in position to take advantage of it. He is so small he has trouble tackling WRs, TEs, RBs, well basically everybody. For some reason his play reminds me of years ago watching professional wrestling when they had handicap matches of one guy against a bunch of midgets. Even a band of little people was no match for the bigger guy. Grixby against anyone is a mismatch that does not favor Nebraska. Quote Link to comment
Blackshirtsguru Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Because he just got "SCHOOLED" by the University of Oklahoma! Hats off to OU. They took advantage of our short, soft, scared, cornerbacks! Quote Link to comment
Licensed to Ill Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I seriously want a sig of Grixby getting his head palmed by Malcolm Kelly Quote Link to comment
Drowning_in_the_Sea_of_Red Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Yea Grixby was picked on all night. And I know Grixby isnt the best DB, but that Kelly was pushing off all fricken night. Not that I'm using this as an excuse for us losing. Most of them, yea, probably shouldnt of been called and they werent. But there were a couple that definately should have, like in the post above.....Kelly's hand was on top of Grixby's helmet......how do u not call that??? Â Â Ok now I'm sounding like a whiny little b*tch.....I'm going to shut up now.......sorry to anyone who reads this post for wasting their time......I hate myself....... Quote Link to comment
brasky Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Nah I credit it to Kelly's uncanny ability to not get called on the 10 push-offs he should have been called on...(if you are wondering, Kelly had 10 receptions...) Quote Link to comment

Well Grixby got away with a lot of shirt tugging or as I like to call it "Oh sh#t he just got by me AGAIN!!!". But you have to admit he has been overmatched by even the sub par WR's this year.

Licensed to Ill Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 I'm pretty sure earlier we all agreed Grixby and Shanle should'v had about 10 PI calls themselves Quote Link to comment

gamecocks Posted December 3, 2006 Share Posted December 3, 2006 Grixby did not have that bad of coverage tonight. Thompson threw some pretty good passes where only his recievers could catch the pass. I know he got burned on the double move, but on most of those passes that his man caught, he was right there to tackle his man once he caught the pass. Quote Link to comment

Oh I am not saying he didn't try...He tried his damndest tonight....There's no making up a miss matched size advantage...I guess I am being too hard on the kid....Chalk it up as frustration!
