A few weeks ago, we ran a running play to the left side and Samuels blocked his guy and basically stopped in the middle of the gap, Betts ran straight into him. Those are the types of plays we see too often from him, He never finishes a play. for a guy his size and with his talent, he needs to be more physical.

I really really hate him, but he is having a probowl caliber year. Hopefully he can keep up the good work and work on his aggression.

You hate him??? WTF is that all about??? Do you really know how tough it is to play LT w/ no help? Do you see JC getting blind sided?? Your comments are just plain silly.

WOW.

Samuels is one of the top-tier LT's in the game and deserves his props. He is a quality character guy and a 'Skin for life.

Don's drink the Hater-Ade now...

Are you drunk? Please say you're drunk, because I think we could all just forgive you and move on if you were really, really drunk.

I have not been a CS fan in the past.

I thought he was decent, but not as great as he was portrayed.

I have a buddy who is no skins fan, but thought CS was good.

I said to watch everytime Ramsey gets sacked, more often than not there would be samuels Standing with his hands on his hips in the foreground of the picture, as his man was lying on our QB, and not in a brokeback mountain kind of way.

Within two weeks my Mets-Jets buddy saw what I saw and agreed with me.

HOWEVER, in the original spirit of the thread, I do believe he has been having his best year ever.

He is much improved, and finally living up to his reputation.

He has been getting some help, though I noticed this earlier in the year.
Especially during the Miami game, Cooley was over on the left side helping out. Of course, this was CS's first game back.

(Hate is a word that should not be used for people on a normal basis, unless you were previously married to them)


These are my two cents, for what that is worth.

A left tackle who goes up against elite pass rushers and nullifying their effect on the game is every coaches dream. Samuels never was this dominant before, but here in his 8th NFL season, I think he's got to be the best LT in the game. I don't even think he has a penalty called on him yet this year.

He's been our best player on either side of the ball this year, and we wouldn't be 3-2 without him. He needs to get a little love because he is singlehandedly (not literally...that would be holding) balancing out the offensive line and keeping it from falling apart.

When he gets beat some fans tend to freak out. But the reality is he might get beat once every other game or so. That means out of 60-70 pass plays he is getting beat once or twice with no help. That is simply outstanding. Samuels is w/out question a top NFL LT and he is the one guy on our line that can not be replaced. There is a reason he gets voted to the Pro Bowl. The guys that go against him know his talent level.

Samuels gets into the pro-bowl because players and coaches vote for him. He is a first class LT and I pretty happy he's on our team and you should be too.

John Riggens was pretty much ripping on him yesterday. I listened from 530-550pm on Monday and he was saying Samuels technique has really been pretty crappy and he is crossing his legs, something he should never do.

I wish I remembered more of the specific plays they blamed him for and the exact mistakes he made but I kinda caught the end of it when I first got into my car.

I haven’t noticed anything good or bad from Samuels this year, which is usually a good thing because I normally only notice bad plays by the O line not good ones.

Anyone see him make a mistakes vs. Greenbay, or listened to Riggo Radio yesterday between 530-6?

That's funny that Riggins was ripping on Samuels when Todd Wade was getting pushed around all day.

Samuels held KGB, an outstanding edge pass rusher, to 1 tackle (actually an assist) and zero sacks. That was without any help. Our right tackles with occasional assistance allowed Kampman 9 tackles (8 solo) and two sacks. I love Riggo, but calling out Samuels for his solid effort is ridiculous.

samuels is an obvious pro-bowler again this year as usual. and its nto because of his name. offensive lineman are about the most judged players when it comes to the pro bowl. its not just a popularity contest for them.
