Simeon Rice takes shots at Michael Strahan

Headhunter : 2/26/2015 10:55 am
"I didn't have nobody falling down to help me get sacks. I didn't have that. I had to earn everything I got."

"I know you had a guy here [in New York]. He was not seeing me. Nobody was. When I played, I set the standard. I ushered into the Javon Kearses, I ushered in the Jason Taylors."

"I dominated when I played. There was nobody better at my position. Nobody."

"I like Michael Strahan as a person but I could care less if he's in the Hall of Fame or not."

"You had a guy here that went with four sacks [that made the Pro Bowl]. Four!"

he needs attention and Love. Maybe he should hook up with the Hooker his buddy Sapp tried to land. Better yet, maybe he thinks by mouthing off he'll get a gig from the NFL network, he can replace the asshole Sapp. Hey Simeon STFU!! jealous a bit?

Compare stat lines...  
Dunedin81 : 2/26/2015 3:08 pm : link
Player A: 174 GP, 161 GS, 122 sacks, 5 INTs, 28 FFs, 389 tackles, 3 Pro Bowls, 1 All Pro

Player B: 161 GP, 102 GS, 85 sacks, 1 INT, 35 FF, 5 defensive TDs, 2 Pro Bowls, 1 All Pro

Player A comes across as the better player, even acknowledging how often Player B was hurt, but it's not that big a gap. And nobody thinks of Osi Umeniyora as a sure-thing HOFer, much less a first ballot guy.

He COULDN'T care less. He obviously cares since he could "care less".

Warren Sapp playing next to him.
This guy is bitter,  
giantgiantfan : 2/26/2015 7:36 pm : link
he definitely was more consistent in getting 10 or more sacks per year than Strahan, but thats it. Strahan has more career sacks (longevity) and holds the record for most sacks in a season. Rice's beast season was 16.5, Strahan bested that twice with 18.5 and 22.5.

Only thing Rice has on Strahan is he averaged more sacks per season (by 2), party because he was consistent at getting 10+ sacks a year and partly because he played 4 less seasons.

Okay Simeon, bye now.
Did Favre lay down for Strahan?  
giantgiantfan : 2/26/2015 7:42 pm : link
I'm not so sure he did, but it doesn't matter anyways its counted as a sack. However, looks like Michael is in the backfield damn face and Favre doesnt have many choices other than take a big hit or throw the ball away really really fast.

Then again I can't tell the context of the game from that and Favre seems to smile afterwards.

Strahan  
AnishPatel : 2/26/2015 7:55 pm : link
was a 2 way DE, who got his sacks AND played the run. Rice was a great pass rusher, but sucked at as a 2 way DE.
Strahan has 659 tackles while rice has 389.. That's fucking terrible if you are going to rip a fucking HOFer.

45 total tackles for Rice in a season vs Strahans 61. Trent cole is a 2 way TE, as well as JPP. This is why Idon't respect Freeny. 30 something tackles as a career high? That's fucking god awful. Rice isn't in the same league as Strahan. If you are going to talk shit about a guy at least have more Sacks AND total tackles then the guy.If not, shut the fuck up. i wish Strahan would just rip these guys a new asshole.
Simeon Rice was such a transcendent talent......  
Bluenatic : 2/26/2015 8:24 pm : link
...... that he spent his last professional season amassing all of 5.5 tackles and 1 sack for the UFL's New York Sentinels.
Anybody judging Strahan's entire career based on the Favre sack  
Matt M. : 2/26/2015 8:32 pm : link
is a moron. If you want to question the sack record, that's fine. But, for the entire body of his career, Strahan was the 2nd best DE in football during my lifetime. The only player I've seen at the position was Reggie White. This is one case where I really don't think I am being biased as a Giants fan.

That's how many "people feel down for" One. And Strahan was a beast against the run like few pass rushers like Rice ever were.


Fuck the fall down. Strahan was held so often they actually stopped calling it. Had his "blatant" holds been called, he'd would have had at LEAST 10 more sacks that year. He literally couldn't be stopped. I saw every game.
actually think Strahan's

most exciting plays were in run defense. remember quite a few arm tackles of rbs while still engaged with OT. or exploding off a block to stone a rb.

and this is coming
