Man we could use another white RB that gets some carries for FF purposes. Very frustrating you have the best player in football, then ....nobody.

I think Nall is primed for a decent year. And it’ll only take one big game for him to become a star that fan bases gravitate to. I just hope he doesn’t get thrown into the fire against an elite run defense and the bears look like **** and he has a bad game not to his own fault. With white players you just have to hope they don’t fumble or do anything stupid because it’s over for them if they do.

Quite frankly a motivated offensive line is essential to open holes, especially for a big back like Ryan, and I don't have a lot of confidence in the Bears' o-line, which was putrid last year while Mitch Trubisky took all the blame. As always, hope I'm wrong and will be hoping for the best. I do believe Nall has a lot of talent to show if only he gets a fair opportunity to do so.

Where's the "McCaffrey Effect"? That's right, it's almost always non-existent when it's a White man with the potential to kick major ass. See Nelson, Jordy; Watt, JJ; Sehorn, Jason; Kuechly, Luke; Alstott, Mike, and many others that can be listed at "taboo" or almost taboo positions.

Ryan Nall could be similar to Peyton Hillis in 2010 - about the same size and speed ratio and both violent runners with exceptional agility.

Nall tests better across the board than slow Montgomery... that boy is a real plodder.

For the anti-White nerds at Weenieworld, here's highlights of "someone called Ryan Nall" from 2017. Just your average 240 pound back with 4.5 speed and excellent moves and elusiveness.

His 2016 season was his best (not shown in this video), but he ended his OSU career with a gaudy 5.8 yards per carry average, including 13 rushing TDs in 2016. He should already be in his third season as an NFL starter, let's hope the "Hillis Curse" will work in his favor this season in spite of the best efforts of Rodent Nagy.

There is simply no other reason he is not tearing up the league other than his skin color. He is big, he is fast, he has great hands and a good blocker.

If Derrick Henry (who I don’t mind - good no-nonsense runner) is given opportunity why not Nall who is similar size / build but ever better receiver?

Also good article on Nick Kwiatkoski - interesting to note how well he played when given chance to start and how much opposing quarterbacks respected his game... but “he could overtake” two far inferior black linebackers when they we healthy.

Racism plain and simple.

Excellent video! Remember Nall's 2017 season well....he started college career as a Tight End/H-Back...to coaches finally saying "your athletic to move to RB"....Eddie George ; Brandon Jacobs; Derrick Henry & Latavius Murray come to mind. Nall is plenty capable of being a "Feature Back" in the NFL!

If his name was LaDairius Nall; the unathletic pathetic white journalist dweebs @ Rotoworld would be slobbering over themselves; but since it's Ryan ...whitey will just have to get in the back of the line. I think these pathetic journalist/so-called experts were picked on at PE in HS for being so slow & unathletic! So surely they identify/perceive other's that look like themselves that way too. Same reason the Duke basketball team was so hated.

Peyton Hillis is EXACTLY who comes to mind...early in his career he was so frustrated @ Arkansas getting limited carries behind Darren McFadden & Felix Jones; he asked to be "moved to Linebacker". Thankfully that did not happen! Watched him run a 65 yard TD in Tiger Stadium @ LSU vs. Jacob Hester

Christian McCaffrey is called "Boy Wonder" by some dwf's

Ryan Nall is a modern day Mike Alstot. He should have been the starting running back for 3 seasons now after leading the nfl in rushing yards in the preseason a few years back. We all know that Nagy doesn't want to let the kid shine. It makes me
sick to my stomach that he has already missed out on a few good seasons. I see Hillis, Alstot and alot of Gerhart in Nall. I believe he could be as good or better than all of them. Will he ever get the chance? Let's keep our fingers crossed!

This was a DWF response to a message I posted on Finheaven. I picked the heavily maligned Michael Deiter as the Dolphins breakout player of the year. Last year I said it would be Gesicki and I was correct. My message is on top. His message is below the dotted line

My breakout player is Michael Deiter. Ereck Flowers sucks and the clown we drafted in the 2nd round this year has BUST written all over him. I never like to root for a player to get injured, but I really wouldn't lose any sleep if Flowers went down and an improved Deiter was inserted into that LG spot and winds up never giving it back.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Obviously the front office and the coaches have a different view of Flowers than you do. I don’t think they signed him for $10 million a year to be a backup. The fact they have Deiter as the second string center shows they are not that impressed by his play at guard.

As far as Hunt is concerned, he might not be a starter at this time but he can’t be any worse than Deiter was as a rookie. Supposedly he looks good in the running game but still has a lot to learn in regards to pass protection. It isn’t his fault they drafted him in the second round but I think he has less chance of being a bust than Deiter, who is in his second year in the league and yet two rookies are starting on the offensive line while Deiter is on the bench.

Can anyone imagine being the agent of these morons like the Tennessee Titan 1st round pick who just got the DUI? It's hard to figure how dumb these "people" are. The agent must be pulling his hair out.

Has there ever been a White O-lineman who's been given as many chances as Ereck Flowers? Top 10 draft pick, bust at left tackle, bust at right tackle, now being given another opportunity at guard.

A White lineman who was drafted in the top 10 to be a left tackle would be run out of the league if he failed.

Yep, I couldn't believe we signed this bozo for $10 million. When he ultimately fails at guard, I'll be the first to say "told ya so"

Ryan Nall 240lbs 4.5 CM 215ish 4.48........
Nall cuts well, has great acceleration, runs through and over people, as good hands receiving as CM

Nall should be the starter in Chicago....period.

Sounds like it's just a collar bone for LVE. Good news considering his neck injury history. 6-8 weeks he should be back. By that time the Cowboys may be out of the hunt if their run defense plays like it did last night.

Nick Vigil - the overlooked and very good LB will take Tranquill's place. Vigil actually had a fumble recovery yesterday that put SD in the lead.

Good news about VanderEsch. Stud linebacker

Vigil is starter-quality. He will do well taking over for the unfortunate Tranquil.

The Bucs-Saints game pulled in huge ratings as expected. Unfortunately I won't get the Bucs-Panthers early game. Dammit. The NFL should have figured out a way to nationally televise all of Tom Brady's Bucs games. I am stuck with the Giants and Bears not awful but hell CM against Brady is more appetizing for me.

Breaking news! WR Andy Isabella has changed his number from 89 to 17 this year. I guess that means he actually is still alive? I want to punch his coach in the face btw. Speaking of the Cards the most curious thing heading into week two is QB Murray's back up will be Taysom Hill clone Chris Streveler because their regular back up will be inactive. If the Wizard of Oz extra does get injured that will be interesting. Nice to see DE Zach Allen making some noise though. They play Washington in a late game. Another game I won't get.

Jets-49ers is another early game I will get but it looks like TE George Kittle might not play. And if the white WRs don't get much action for the Jets again this game seems a little limp.



I think the game I am most looking forward to week 2 is the Sunday night game Seattle-New England. It will be a good measuring stick to see where New England is this year. Their win over the Dolphins didn't clarify much. Saints at Raiders Monday night holds some intrigue too.

This message is for Shadowlight? Do you have a computer and internet? If so you should be able to figure out how to watch all of these games for free. I can help with tips if needed in a private message.

Thanks for the offer but I am dealing with luddite equipment. I can't do anything but basic stuff. I am though planning to sign up for the Red Zone this week so that may help out some. I'm a little ticked because my two early games aren't as interesting as obviously the Bucs game.

Ballage is proof positive their is a caste system for all the lurkers and non-believers.


I also saw that the Bears WR Allen Robinson is whining and is trying to force his way out of Chicago via trade.

As of this spring ZZ was willing to be a camp body for one of the 32 teams and wasn't signed but Ballage the baldest of tires at 24 is still hanging around.

I remember this board had a running joke of Cowher and Kordell Steward having an unconsummated love affair, but this one between Gase and Ballage tops that one...
