ravinmaniac52 Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 the guy had a few sack in preseason, that is it. I know a guy that played for the Ravens, Nate Bolllings maybe? Guy lead the NFL is sacks in the preseason, I think 2 preseason in a row but that is all he could do.I don't think the guy ever made an NFL team.

papasmurfbell Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 But he made a roster out of being successful in the PS? Sam was a success in the PS and should be on a team because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc. Posted September 8, 2014 Share Posted September 8, 2014 I also don't buy the "too short" argument about his career in college. I guess that at least a quarter of the guys in the league made their name on one season in college. Some great some duds. Again, not arguing that the guy is a guaranteed pro bowler, but just that some of the "obvious" reasons he couldn't possibly be good.

thundercleetz Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 Ravens pass rush was so terrible on Sunday that I would sign a pass rushing specialist like Sam immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dc. Posted September 9, 2014 Share Posted September 9, 2014 But only because he's gay, right, Cleetz? That's the only reason anyone would have interest in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tsylvester Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Long just went down. I wonder if letting Sam go will comeback and bite them in the ass. He is on a practice squad, they can resign him any time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
papasmurfbell Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 I know. If they do sign him do they have to keep him for the whole season on the 53 man roster. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I haven't been following the topic, so I don't get it. All I know is our pass rush was terrible on Sunday, I don't think Sam could do any worse. His upside as a rusher might he worth the risk even if he can't play special teams and only plays on third downs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tsylvester Posted August 15, 2015 Share Posted August 15, 2015 Looks like the saga is over. After stepping away from the Candaian team last month, he comes back to play for one game and quits again..... He says the "pressure" is too much for him "mentally"..... What pressure? The pressure he brought on him self by doing all the shows, by agreeing to a Mike Sam show with Opy? By making up claims he was drafted low only because he is gay? Or the pressure to make it in the CFL since he clearly was a great college player whose talent was not good enough for playing at the next level... Maybe he can go to an indoor team..........

tsylvester Posted August 17, 2015 Share Posted August 17, 2015 I'm sorry it bothered you man. I'm glad you can finally put this behind you and move on. Bothered me? Not so much the right word. What "bothered me" as I said on page one was his abuse of being gay to cover up his lack of will power, his lack of NFL talent. Then for him to blame his drop in draft stock on his coming out when it was clear to those who know the game, he was not an NFL player. This pretty much sums it all up. No guts, no talent. I do hope the best for him in what ever he does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you can put it behind you and move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
