What a blind ass homer. Marshal Faulk said before the game that Dallas would not get into the end zone at all & Michael Irvin agreed with him !

Chief Dick Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Irvin is a complete wad. Â Now, if the stupid Cowboys actually stick to a running game to take the pressure off of the D and Romo, they have a chance to do some damage this year. Â Unfortunately, Jones and his son Garrett will overthink this thing and probably throw the ball 60 times next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

irish Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Irvin is a complete wad.  Now, if the stupid Cowboys actually stick to a running game to take the pressure off of the D and Romo, they have a chance to do some damage this year.  Unfortunately, Jones and his son Garrett will overthink this thing and probably throw the ball 60 times next week.   True and even though Irvin was part of our winning teams, I couldn't stand him and thought he was nothing special and just a whiny bitch. He should've been flagged for offensive pass interference on almost every catch.  Deion   I don't find Deion as annoying and at times he's entertaining. Also, unlike Irvin and aside from the lack of physicality, Deion was a special talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went across the middle in an era where they could actually hit you. He always got you the first down when you needed it and he was a fired up son of a bitch on every play. I know he has big time D bag qualities too but as a player I friggin loved the guy Edited September 29, 2014 by whomper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grits and Shins Posted September 29, 2014 Author Share Posted September 29, 2014 Michael Irvin was indeed a playmaker and I do not debate his talent. Doesn't change the fact that he is way too full of himself. I will take Deion and Goodell over Irvin everyday. But a couple of names have popped up since I originally posted ... Skip Bayless and Stephen A Smith are in the same category as Irvin. I will turn the tv off and listen to silence before I will watch First Take.

IrishPride Posted September 29, 2014 Share Posted September 29, 2014 Anyone who refers to himself as "SKIP", Shouldn't be taken serious, just saying? Irvin during his prime and the offense he played in had a lot of weapons, that being said, he was incredible. Remember, Emmitt, drew a lot of 8/9 in the box, which gave you straight man on Irvin and Novacek with that O-line and Aikman? Recipe for success as proven by their rings?

However, he was an artist and cheating the system. But hey, he got away with it so kudos to him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevegrab Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I guess "making some plays" gets you in the HOF these days  Winning SBs helps a lot. Some very good WR have been getting left out lately as the numbers of an elit player keep increasing. With a guy like Irvin many (myself included) have trouble acknowledging his talent and accomplishments because he is such a tool.  Ok, this research didn't quite pan out as I had expected, was thinking I found a WR with comparable stats, no SB and no chance of getting into Canton, but I goofed  I was looking some at his stats and trying to find a comparable receiver. Pro Football Reference showed Rod Smith as a similar player with a 12 year career. When you compare the two Irvin doesn't appear far superior. Rod Smith won 2 SB with Denver, he is on the list of Modern Era Nominees for 2015 class (and was a nominee for 2014) but was not a finalist last year (WR Tim Brown and Marvin Harrison were) and now for 2015 you have 2 first time WR in Bruce/Holt on the list as well.

Irvin was a lucky SOB. Take away Troy, Emmitt, Harper, Novacek, Moose, that world class line, and a very solid D and you have an above average WR that is not in canton.

Â Â Yes, removing all players with talent from any team will I am sure be detrimental to the success of the wr I guess all of those players were with him too at Miami which helped him become the 11th overall player selected in the draft . Im done arguing the merits of Irvin as a ballplayer. World class headcase and annoying as all hell yes, but he backed it up on the field and it stuns me that anyone, especially a Cowboys fan, would dispute that.
