Ted Ginn: Gotta Make That Catch, Buddy

Found September 22, 2009 on The Big Lead:
PLAYERS: Gibril Wilson,  Pierre Garcon,  Chad Pennington
TEAMS: Miami Dolphins,  Indianapolis Colts

91012470
We could have selected safety Gibril Wilson, who must have failed geometry, because he doesn’t know jack about taking a good angle to the football. If Wilson had a clue, there’s no way Pierre Garcon should have scored on this play with three minutes left (Wilson is No. 28). QB Chad Pennington and coach Tony [...]

  • I thought the fins were winning this game before I ever turned it on. Gonzo out, so you stop Reggie Wayne and Clark and you run the ball against a sorry run D. You win.

    At this point my gut said, "but wait, idiot, they have that Manning guy." My mind said "so fing what! it's not like he's Joe Montana." Last time I argue with my gut.

    I'm sorry Ginn didn't come through!

  • You know, it wasn't just Ginn, our defense couldn't tackle a two year old out there last night, Peyton completes a twenty yard pass that turns into an eighty yard TD. WTF! You have to make those plays or you get beat. What good is it to control the game for 45 minutes then lose. That was horrible to watch.

  • *** Ted Ginn, *** Cam Cameron for drafting him. I have already cut his a$$ from my Madden team.

  • Ted Ginn has made many strides from his college days.....and he's still a terrible wide receiver.Only reason he was drafted so high was because of how good Devin Hester was that year with his punt/kick returns for the Bears.Miami though they can do the same with Ginn because of his speed...

  • spoken like a true Michigan fan......

    I think Ginn has potential, but he did not need to be drafted so high based on that potential. This is the NFL not the NBA. Had he stayed in school and developed into more of a receiver he would be much better than he is now. He is still learning and it is a long season.

  • Let's hope he doesn't turn into Braylon Edwards.....
    by jaymz77   September 22, 2009   Reply   Options  
  • Michigan fan or not it's the truth...He's a top 10 pick that the Dolphins crown as their #1 WR on the depth chart who on the field only has 4 TD receptions in his 3 yr career..


    Knock Braylon Edwards all you want but the reason ppl knock him is because he never followed up his Pro Bowl season, something Ginn has never had and if thats what you mean when you say you hope he doesnt turn into Braylon Edwards then dont worry about it, because Ginn wont be seeing the pro bowl anytime soon..

  • touche!

    We will see. Ginn is still getting better. I wouldn't count him out yet.
