Around SBN: Jerry Sandusky's Wife Tries To Run A Reporter Over

"Wake is sick, man, just sick."

From the Sun-Sentinel guest Blogger Joe W.

    C. Wake – 1 tackle, 0 sacks – I’m sorry, but Wake is just “sick”.

He didn’t have any stats in game, but just about every time he was on the field he was abusing Jeff Otah.

  • The 1st Porter sack should have been a half a sack with the other half being Wake’s.
  • The interception was when Wake was pressuring Delhomme.
  • The Starks sack, Wake was on top of Delhomme again.
  • The 2nd to last drive Carolina was driving down the field until it got to the 30 and then Miami put Wake in the game. Wake was on top of Delhomme again. Drive stalled.
  • The last drive Carolina was again driving down the field no problem. They put Wake in the game for the final play and he was on top of Delhomme again. Imcomplete.
  • The right tackle for Carolina should have been called for holding against Wake at least 5 times in this game. And if I’m him, I’m going to start complaining to the refs so I get that call more often.
  • There were times Otah had a bear hug on him and it wasn’t called.

If you remember back in training camp the coaches put a buzzer for our QB’s to get rid of the ball. It went off after 3 seconds. Well, in the NFL, elite pass rushers can get to the QB in 3 seconds. Right now, the only OLB we have that can do that is Wake. And this coaching staff needs to get him on the field every single passing down they can possibly spare. If he played more snaps, even in a reserve role, he could have 10 sacks this year. It’s kind of a little scary what he’s going to do when he actually gets to play full time. Has Parcells found his next LT? DeMarcus Ware? I think so.

Wake is sick, man, just sick."

There is more to football than a game stat line. Much more.

Looks like we've found a gem in Cam Wake. Please let him play more. MUCH MORE.

Poll
We should rest Joey Porter and unleash him on Tom Brady and New England. Give Cameron Wake and Charlie Anderson more reps.

Been saying that since before the start of the season.

The guy is a beast. I think we have an anchor to our D in this guy. Great pick up for the Trifecta.

Agreed....

the best thing about getting him was that he was cheap and we had to give up nothing to get him

Nope, best thing is that Phins got him, not Jest, Brady or poor Bills!

Just think how stupid the average Jest fan is, and then realize that half of them are even stupider! ( a parody of a George Carlin line)

I think during the offseason he really needs to work on a few things

A) a Dwight Freeney-esque spin move to counter his speed rush
B) his run defense (stack and shed etc)
C) dropping into zone coverage or picking up backs out of the backfield

If he can do those things, he’s a Pro Bowl type OLB. His speed rush is a thing of beauty, and is already giving OL fits even though it’s really all we’ve seen from him. That tells me he just has elite speed for a pass rusher. If he gets a spin move back to the inside, he’ll embarrass a lot of tackles around the league. The run defense and ability to drop in coverage will allow him to stay on the field on every down and in every situation. I’m excited to see what he becomes for us in the next few years.

He's already light years ahead of Vernon Gholston...

although that isn’t saying much, I still like saying it.
How much did it cost -will it cost the Jets to take Gholston…yikes!

Abandoned the Draft Sean Smith at #25 Bandwagon to Join the Draft Sean Smith at #61 Bandwagon and get Vontae Davis and Chris Clemons. Trio > me.

as opposed to the fins

who had the worst drafts in the entire 90s

by hossanfeffer on Nov 24, 2009 7:20 PM EST reply actions  

Worst drafts of the 90's?

Patrick Surtain, Sam Madison, Jason Taylor, Zach Thomas, Tim Bowens, O.J. McDuffie, Troy Vincent, Bryan Cox, Richmond Webb, and Keith Sims. 7 of them were All Pro selections, and 4 of them are locks for HOF. The Jets on the other hand……4 All Pro selections (one was a punter), with 2 maybe 3 HOF POTENTIALS, not locks. Do your homework before you come over here spouting nonsense.

That is why he was the defensive player of the year in the Canadian Football League. He played for a team called the B.C. Lions. He was great up there too!

Great post, and I like that you pointed out the – at least – 5 times he was held. Wake is so much better than our next best pass rusher that it’s not even funny.

Another thing about Wake....

the dude is a sick athlete…

If you look at his combine numbers from 2005 (he goes by the name Derrick Wake)

He runs a 4.65 40 and also has a 45.5 inch vertical…

HOLY S#@T…A 45.% inch Vertical…he was also a kick blocking machine in college

by scbrandon on Nov 24, 2009 8:38 PM EST reply actions  

For some perspective, that is an inch and a half higher than Spud Webb and Michael Jordan’s vertical in their prime. Wake is an athlete’s athlete.

And, I thought he ran a 4.55 40. Could be wrong.

I wanna see more Wake

But JT is good at getting brady and porter is hopefully starting to get on on fire and if he does then I am happy with the current rotation. Keep Wake ready for passing downs and he will simply beast the OL and hopefully that stupid Matt Light. I don’t remember other teams ol names but I know that arrogant prick. Talks so much sh!t its sad.
