http://www.nfl.com/news/...ots-nfl-return-at-age-35I loved the way he ran, veteran RB who can handle the football. |
Teamwork is what the Green Bay Packers were all about. They didn't do it for individual glory. They did it because they loved one another. -Vince Lombardi |

Thanks for the link, but next time can you add more than one line please? Geez ... what you think this place is a hot link bed for every other website out there? :P lol Ahman Green wrote:I've got at least five years left in me to play football. I came into the league in special teams and I'd have no problem doing that again. Playing special teams in kickoff coverage, punt coverage. Just put me anywhere. I'm a football player first. That's something my dad always reminded me. 'You're a football player, not just a running back.' I'll say what everyone is going to say ... Special Teams is for young guys learning the ropes, not old guys not able to let go. I am genuinely concerned for Ahman Green because it's clear he has not found something to take the place of football in his life. |

I love the way he ran, too. Hard. Angry. Always looking downfield for someone to hit.
That was too long ago, though. He's 35. From a morale standpoint, we might as well cut every other running back on the team if we sign him.
Sorry, Ahman. |

If we needed a guy, I'd give him a shot.
Like that one year when Grant appeared out of nowhere in week 10. If it was a situation like that, I'd let him come in and see what he could do.
There might be a team out there for him. Then again, Grant only got a couple looks and he's much younger. |
It's not whether you get knocked down, it's whether you get back up again. |

Green had the rare combination of outstanding strength and size combined with outstanding speed; and the ability to catch the ball out of the backfield. He was a monster, and underpaid in Green Bay for his production. For a five year stretch, he was the top back in the league and it was in Favre's prime too - where are our Lombardis for that era? It still pisses me off to this day what a pussy Sherman was in controlling the Diva.
Thankfully, the Sherminator paid Green to come to Houston to be on IR for two years - and Green should not need to play football anymore. It was considered one of the top ten worst free agent signings of all time.
I would have an aneurism if the Packers signed Ahman Green right now. |

I think Green was on the NFL network's top ten list for bad free agent signings. They called him a thief and he should have been sent to prison. |

The same NFL Network that has Tim Tebow ranked higher than Hall of Famer's? Let me think of how much stock I put into that ... |
