BleedinBlue Posted May 11, 2015 Share Posted May 11, 2015 Pretty high praise from Diehl as McKenzie was one of the toughest S.O.B.'s on the front line of the Giants' offense of all time. But according do Diehl, Flowers has the same attitude, but nastier and smoother. Considering that Flowers is still just a kid, that's a remarkable thing to say. Their stats out of college are nearly identical in size, weight, and speed. Except that Flowers benched 225 37 times compared to McKenzie's 20.

Sephiroth Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 "Flowers" is not a football name. This kid has bust written all over him. Bill Cowher would never have drafted somebody named "Flowers." I mean, come on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was wondering if anyone would remember that. I think he was on the Super Bowl team with Neil O'Donnell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Ereck Flowers is like a meaner, nastier Tulip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeMesiS Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 And I agree with David. And that's why Erik should be playing Guard and not LT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tempest Posted August 27, 2017 Share Posted August 27, 2017 Ereck Flowers is like a meaner, nastier Tulip. Hey now Flowers is nasty. Remember how he got in Jordan Ranaan's face last year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon Posted September 20, 2017 Share Posted September 20, 2017 Move Flowers to RT so he can be that same kind of player Not possible. That would require coaches and management to either admit they were wring about him, or grow a set and make a decision that might hurt little Ereck's feelings.

Maybe moving him to the right side can work wonders and when he gets better, he can be moved back to LT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMFP Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 David "The Real" Diehl has spoken. Word. Probably the only time Diehl has been wrong his entire life (other than the DWI thing, but that was Croatia in the World Cup, so he gets a pass on that).
