Roy Roundtree reminds me of Braylon Edwards

Submitted by Amused on
He has stone hands, just like Braylon

please watch the 2003 OSU Game and tell me if he has stone hands. In the NFL, maybe. Against OSU, blasphemy.

Edit: not to say Roy isn't a great receiver. He has played well in big games, just not today. Also, he does the best Donald Duck impression east of the Mississippi. Pretty sure Donald Duck in Disneyland beats him to the west.

....Roundtree isn't getting the #1 Jersey. I like the kid and he's been clutch but the clutch seems to be worn out today. This team has a curse on it and someone needs to get some A2 witches to remove it. It's just getting embarassing.

You really are stuck on stupid. Harbaugh isn't a savior of any type.Look at his record while keeping a pro-style offense and not switching the entire scheme. It is not a lot better then RR who has had to change everything. You need to think independently from what the mainstream media feeds you.  When will you children get this concept? Thank you for a laugh though.

RR had to change everything? Really? Michigan was 11-2 and 9-4 the 2 seasons prior to him coming. We had great recruiting classes the 4 years prior (all top 15). Rich Rod came in and decided to rebuild when he could have remodeled. Easing into the spread would have been fine, but he came and turned Michigan into a rebuilding project when we didn't need to be rebuilt.

But hey go ahead and keep plagiarizing what you read in one of Brian's posts, it really makes you sound more intelligent and a better football fan. Did you ever think that maybe the rest of the entire country is right and a majority of Michigan fans like you are just refusing to accept that Rich Rodriguez is not the right guy?

Yes I was saying this a couple weeks ago that Hemmingway and Stonum are more clutch than Roy is. Again it's easy to catch when Denard does that little fake like he's going to run the ball and then throws it to a wide open Roundtree. It's the tough catches in traffic and what you do after the catch that gets you the #1 jersey.

don't know what's up with Roy. He's still awesome. quit freaking out on the kid. he's got typical michigan wideout syndrome: awesome at times, totally unreliable at times. it is impossible to know when which phase will hit. literally every receiver michigan has had has these phases. 

 

that said, I'm really fucking frustrated at half-time. 

c'mon blue. STEP UP.

if you want the #1. I like Roy in the slot but he doesn't yet make all the easy plays,most of the tough plays, and some of the impossible ones. That's what it takes to be the guy.

Braylon dropped the occasional ball, but I don't think he was ever this bad at reeling them in.  Roy just doesn't get his head in the game often enough.

It was a tough day for Roy, but he's been a solid receiver for us on the whole.  What I don't understand is why it's cool to bash a player on the team, but not the coach?  The entire team lost today, not just one player.

It becomes a mental thing for Roy, you think I'm gonna make this one BIG and start thinking before you catch the ball. After that its just all mental meltdown. We all know Roy can catch and is clutch, he had a rough day. I can't think of one other person I would have wanted catching that ball at the end of the ND game than Roy. I hope RR is back next year too and we can see the full potential of these kids

He had his worst game ever in a Michigan uniform, but anyone who is gonna sit around and talk shit about him is a complete fucking douche. Roy has been clutch for us all year, has one bad game, and you turncoats are ready to make him walk the plank? WTF?

lets also not forget that Roy was one of the few bright spots in the game last year... over 100 yards, 9 catches.

seriously, people need to STFU about Roy 'sucking' and needing to be benched. 2 of those drops were plays that were going for probably 3 or 4 yards at most. The 4th down one was huge... but seriously, this guy has given me some faith that Rich can get us solid receivers while maintaining a run-heavy offense. He'll bounce back. 60+ catches for 900 yards? that far exceeds what any wideout has done in Rich Rod's offense. 

In general, this whole damn team looked like they were halfway back to Ann Arbor by half-time.
