He’s a good balance between Nick and Eli. Really disappointed for Nick as he stayed pretty healthy last year and this year.
Okay grampa go back to bed.
Did you play? I recall knee pads as a good protection to the blows one gets playing. Like wearing a seat belt driving. Another change is gloves. How many passes are muffed nowadays because gloves don't permit the fingers to have their "feel." I often notice balls bouncing off receivers hands because they are wearing those damn gloves.
I have noticed players doing that (no knee pads and pants above the knee). I have kind of thought it isn't a good idea to do that, but alot of players are doing it.
Man, I used to think the same until I wore a pair of receiver gloves playing catch with a neighbor kid. Those gloves are incredible. No clue about the knee pad thing, though.
Sorry just trying to be funny. But yes played both football and wrestled in college. Just wore a knee pad when I wrestled. There are different rules on what pads are required between high school and college.
