Into the wild blue yonder...

20071115ehschadhallc4_large_medium 
Air Force's own Chad Hall is the heir apparent to the overrated Lesean McCoy.  More after the jump

Star-divide

Let's go inside the numbers, shall we?

Last night's game proved nothing if it didn't prove that Chad Hall is a legitimate NFL tailback.  In Coach Reid's grind it out style offense, Hall really opened up some eyes with his impressive showing, featuring a heroic 5.5 yards per carry, displaying off-tackle strength and the breakaway speed for which he is rightly feared throughout the NFL.

The McCoy apologists out there will look to his superficially gaudy stats (23 carries for 113 yards).  Sure, this looks impressive on paper, but there are many mitigating factors.  First, more than half of McCoy's rushing yards came in garbage time on ONE RUN of 62 yards.  If you subtract the 62 yard run from his misleading total, you have 22 carries for a very pedestrian 51 yards.  This Steve Bartowski-esque 2.31 yards per carry is completely unacceptable and it seems as if Coach Reid has a tailback controversy on his hands.

Consider, friends, an alternative scenario in which shifty speedster Hall had received the lion's share of the carries over the undeserving McCoy.  5.5 yards per carry x 23 carries yields 127 yards, 14 more than Lesean unjustly garnered in the effort.

If the 2011 Eagles are indeed to turn it around, the only reasonable option is Chad Hall.

God Bless America.

In all honesty

I think we will see alot of this against the pats. It is well known that the pats don’t adjust well to “wrinkles” (wildcat ect..) Hall did look very quick out there. The only thing is every time he got hit I thought he might just break in half.

He needs to see more playing time

Because he would be perfect for the new “machine gun” celebration the Eagles LBs have been using. All he has to do is play, actually do something worth celebrating about, celebrate with the machine gun, and all of a sudden he’s a heart-warming front page story on Yahoo! Even though he’s been around for two years and they already did a story on Fokou’s use of the machine gun in a negative light…

But this made me laugh every time

I got a tremendous amount of enjoyment watching Hall break through the line, dodge the first defender, then get wrapped up and delivered 10 or 15 yards into the backfield. Even when I was certain the game would be lost, I kept cheering for the awesomeness that happened every time he touched the ball.

No he didn't.

He never made any mention of EB sucking his dick. He just said he would use it to shut him up. For all we know he is going to slap him across the face with it a couple times.

by Crizzle12 on Nov 22, 2011 8:45 AM EST up reply actions  

That wouldn’t stop him from making any sound though, thus it wouldn’t “shut him up”. The only way one could possibly shut someone up is to shove something in their mouth. Thus, Imp is right and assuming EB doesn’t want it there, it also classifies as rape.

Not true

A pecker slap could very well shut someone else.

  1. He may find it so unpleasant that he decides to no longer speak.
  1. It knocked some sense into him and he realized that he was previously wrong and decides not to continue with the argument.
  1. If there is some real force behind the penis slap it may very well knock him out.

All the above options will render the subject “speechless”
