From John Reid's latest T.U. article on camp stand-outs.
Quote:Andre Cisco, SS
Cisco will hopefully become the playmaking, rangy, deep ballhawking safety we've been searching for many years.

I don't think receivers like Tyreek Hill could play back then. A few shots like that going across the middle and their career is done.

Donovan Darius was one of my favorite players back then because he was a punishing hard hitter. The "modern era" of football has gotten soft. There are 10 kinds of people in this world. Those who understand binary and those who don't.

It was a dirty, that's why he was ejected and fined. He was an idiot who started to do that crap and got away with it a few times until he sent Ferguson to the hospital. Anyway, Darius was mediocre at best vs the pass. There were much better Safeties who also delivered much better hits without being ...... by just going with their forearm to the head of a guy trying to catch the ball. Gotta love the "has gotten soft", sure, who doesn't love watching players get sent to the hospital and end their careers sooner than expected? or just end up with mental issues, we really should go back to that

Not as dirty as the cheap blindside shot Warren Sapp on the GB offensive guard Clifton away from the play.

You are probably too young to remember players being bloodied during/after games up to and including the quarterback. That's when football was played the way that it was designed. Newsflash for you, players used to wear more padding and protection than they do now. It has always been a violent game. It's just more of a "softer gentler" violent game than it used to be.

Back before the Later 90's there was no such thing as Concussions, "TURF TOE", and may other health protocols we know understand. Guys before that time were true warriors. Clotheslines, body slams, head shots, it was all allowed. IF a player got his bell rung he would take a play off and go right back in. Back in the 70's and beforehand, these guys would kill you on Sunday and then go work a 9-5 job to make ends meat.

Pads were exchanged for speed, and now guys can hit each other even harder. But they only get a few hits in before they end up on the sideline. There were plenty of dirty players then, there still are today. As Vic often liked to say, football is not a game for the well-adjusted.
All this talk about him being great and "1000x better than Moehrig" and the guy couldn't even beat Andrew freaking Wingard
Having said that, I expect Wingard to lose his starting spot real soon lol.

Cisco has completely outperformed Wingard in the preseason. It's very obvious to almost every fan of this team. We show less advertisements to registered users. Accounts are free; join today!

Cisco was the highest rated rookie safety. I think Meyer is just not announcing it but Cisco will get the start imo

Wingard sux. He might be in the right place every once in awhile by sheer dumb luck.
