Pinnock - Topic profile

Before the acquisition of Hester and Thomas i was sold that Pinnock was an upgrade to LoNeal and set to become an integral piece of the Chargers offense.... His best year was 2004.... see HERE Height: 5' 10" Weight: 250 !!!! Age: 28 (5 Years Experience!) Now it seems like he's just a backup and a situational player.... ...

If he looks good during training camp and exhibition, any of you think that Pinnock might become expendable? We've got the following backs: LT Darren Sproles (small) Jacob Hester (bigger) Legedu Nanee (sp?...versatile) Jacob is a tweener, in that he's not a true fullback, nor a true halfback. But I could see us using him as fullback on certain plays. Legedu could do the...

Does Pinnock's knee injury change our first round draft strategy? Is Sproles now 2nd on the depth chart behind LT? Whoooweee, that sacres me!

Last night I was talking to the guy who works at the UT and he said Pinnock has a serious knee injury. He said its a mircrofracture of the knee and its the same kind of injury that Van Buren had and ended his career before it started. He said the word going around is that Pinnock might not be ready in Sept or at all this season so the Chargers might reach some sort of injury settlement with ...

that playbook looks like it would take me 4 years to memorize....props to pinnock for never forgettting a play

I'm quite please with our backfield. LT who is LT. Hester and Pinnock can block for LT. Hester, Spolres, Pinnock, and even LT can be combined for different situations/deception type of formations. Norv is the master of the F-back. Don't be surprised to see Hester motion to a WR position, who in that situation is a much more credible catching threat than LoNeal and Pinnock. ...

I'm sure he will be adequate, but I don't think he fits in well in a system that runs between the tackles using the I-Form as a base package. LoNeal had that mastered. We will see LT and Hester at the same time, but only every so often. I think we ...
