joshh967 Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 i was about to post on this too until i saw he only had 1 tackle to go along with it Quote
Stripes Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 Odell really didn't have all that great of a game. He got both of his interceptions on tipped balls, pretty much luck, so I understand him not getting the nomination. Quote
The_Next_Big_Thing Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 Pretty much luck? Call it that if you like. Personally I prefer to look at it as never giving up on the play, exceptional athletic ability and vision to get to the tipped ball, and good teamwork.They practice tip drills at practice all the time. Odell does it. How many times have you seen guys that MIGHT have been able to get a tipped ball but don't? Odell Does! Quote
bengalindian Posted November 2, 2005 Report Posted November 2, 2005 I just read the descriptions of what the nominees did and only Marion Barber and Merrimann did anything spectacular. Kyle Orton through no picks, so wow, and Heath Miller had two short touchdown catches, but no big gamebreaking stats or plays. Mathis was alright, but its not like he had a kickoff return TD and a receiving TD. Not saying that Odell had amazing numbers, but two picks is two picks, and that against one of the greatest QBs ever, is pretty impressive. Overall, the rookies didn't do much this week. Quote

Honestly, he has been lucky to be in the right place at the right time. He hasn't provided all that great of coverage (look at tenn, pit) and he's been missing some holes.For a rookie, hes been solid, but I just dont think he should have been nominated this week. Quote
