You aren’t gonna push them around. They aren’t afraid. It’d be different if this was Dan Sorensen saying this or any DB, but this is Frank Clark and I can assure anyone and everyone that he’s not afraid to or incapable of tackling Henry.
Mindset probably will be key to containing Henry. Gotta go in thinking you're going to drop him the first time, every time. Playing cautious or scared against this guy will be a problem fast. [Reply]

Oh, let it lie. D_9 manned up and admitted he was wrong months ago. Give the guy a break. We can smack him down about something else next season. [Reply]
Bulletin board material is such a fucking farce. If it's a real thing, then why is trash talking a thing so many players live by? If getting disrespected by the other team to the media during the week is the motivational tool that unlocks the disrespected team's Bobby Boucher gear, then why don't we see players who talk trash during the game get their shit ruined way more often than they do?
If Derrick Henry trucks over Frank Clark on Sunday, he was going to do it even without the trash talk.
Like, this game puts your team in the goddamn SUPER BOWL. That's not fucking motivation enough to play your absolute hardest? If you're Derrick Henry, you really needed Frank Clark to say there are harder RBs to tackle in the NFL before you really REALLY tried your hardest to beat the opponent and go to the Super Bowl?

Get the **** out of here.
IMO, bulletin board material is more of a thing during the regular season, like week 10 when everyone's getting tired and feeling those dings that have mounted over the course of the season.

Not really a thing in the playoffs.
Exactly. It’s something that might help a little for a ‘trap game’ where a team just really isn’t all that focused.
These teams are as focused as they’re going to get for this game, nothing anyone says changes that. I just want this defense to not play scared and Clark is contributing to the cause. [Reply]

I admitted that he has been a badass, but I maintain that Frank did suck for a large portion of the year, I'm just very fucking happy that the reason for the suck was an injury, as that was the absolute best thing we could have hoped for. I still believe that we gave up too much for him, but if he continues to play anywhere close to as good as he's been recently and we win the SB, then it doesn't matter what we gave up for him. A Super Bowl win trumps everything.
Haha smack me around. I'd say I was right about LeSean McCoy. He was washed up last year and hes washed up yet again. Hell he hasn't even been getting playing time.
I do enjoy the discussion though. I will give you the win for Frank, but I get the win for McCoy. When it comes to things I was sure we shouldnt have done I went 1-1. For me to only have 2 real gripes about the offseason just shows how good of a job Brett Veach has done. Hell the one thing he messed up on (McCoy) wasn't even a big deal. It was a low risk high reward signing and he had a couple pretty good games. [Reply]
