Skippy Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'm a homer so my opinion probably doesn't carry much weight but I can't think of a current WR that is tougher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimsoxfan Posted December 6, 2004 Author Share Posted December 6, 2004 I really want the steelers to lose one game (as a pats fan) because I would love to seem them play indy...I am wondering if they could ever be burned by how agressive they are.

Skrappy1 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 David Boston! I can go on with tougher WR's! 594799[/snapback] Tougher than Ward? I don't think so...stronger maybe but Ward is a warrior. Plus Boston is on steroids, they just announced today he is being suspended for testing positive.

thorfinn Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Im not sure what the definition of tough is in regards to WR...but Jerry Rice? TO? Both have reasons to be called tough. I'm not sure what feature of Ward makes him so tough. Usually......my BS Radar is pretty good. 594813[/snapback] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skrappy1 Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 I'm not sure what feature of Ward makes him so tough. 594837[/snapback] Have you ever seen him play? Have you ever seen him block? I am NOT a Steeler fan, but Ward is an awesome WR and one tough S.O.B. to boot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squeegiebo Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 H. Ward is the TOUGHEST WR in the NFL..... haha...he is good..but please. 594759[/snapback] Name me one WR who is tougher.

jimsoxfan Posted December 6, 2004 Author Share Posted December 6, 2004 (edited) Name me one WR who is tougher. Heck, I'll make it ever easier: name 3 players in the entire NFL who are tougher than Hines Ward. 594845[/snapback] I might say Troy Brown is equally as tough. Anyone who can play both sides of the ball is pretty tough... and don't go comparing everyone else...you could just take the free safety off most teams and they are tougher..since I named Brown, I would say Rodney Harrison is tougher than Ward.

I didn't say Hines was the strongest player in the NFL - of course there are huge dudes who are far stronger than he. It is actually the fact that he is smaller but has no fear that makes him so tough. Have you watched him play? How about the block when he took out a 300+ lb DE? As Czarina says, he plays WR like a LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Czarina Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 Hines Ward rocks. Have you seen this guy block? He's one of my favorite players, despite being a Pats fan. He's a very hard hitter, takes a hit well and keeps on going. Not one of those pansy :coughmarvinharrisoncough: no contact, falls down when you hit him WRs.

Turf Boy Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 It's clear Jimmy has never seen Hines play. I'm another who's not a Steeler fan, but, a big Hines Ward fan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexgaddis Posted December 6, 2004 Share Posted December 6, 2004 yeah, gimmie a break here... Hines IS the toughest WR in football...just watch his blocking.. I think 2nd would have to go to Snoop Minnis.. he looked more like snoop dogg... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
justbudsplease Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 Keyshawn Johnson FEARLESS Andre Johnson Qb Favre McNair RB Mike Alstott Michael Pittman TE Pollard Gonzo This is just a short list. I'm not saying Hines isn't tough...but there are many, that I feel are a little tougher!! This is all a matter of opinion.

If you do not think that Hines is not afraid to take at hit and keep on ticking, you obviously have not watched him play. Dude not only isn't afraid to take a hit, he actively seeks it out.

Marauders11 Posted December 7, 2004 Share Posted December 7, 2004 John Lynch McNair Easy Ed McCaffrey (had to throw him in there) Favre- you don't play 200= straight games with oput being kind of tough Travis Henry played on a broken leg last year. Ray Lewis is fairly tough I'd say Lorenzo Neal, Jon Ritchie, etc. - all of the prototype FB's in the NFL. Any wedge breaker on kick coverage (so that's 32 guys right there) Although Hines is a tough guy (no argument here) to say that there are not 3 players in the entire NFL that are tougher is a slight exaggeration IMO.

Heck, I'll make it ever easier: name 3 players in the entire NFL who are tougher than Hines Ward. 594845[/snapback] Terrell Owens will go over the middle with the best of them- that kind of defines toughness from a WR more than blocking ability IMO- You can always throw a crack-back block when the defender isn't looking and get yourself on "jacked-up". I am sure you all remember the TD pass that Owens caught in the playoff game vs. Green Bay a few years back- (in the end zone from Steve Young I think)-where he just knew he was gonna get squashed by several guys, but he made the grab took his medicine and won a game for his team- that's TOUGH!
