    well, they aren't gonna call him fat, they wouldn't be allowed in that locker room anymore. If his problem was bad sushi like you suggested, they would certainly write about that. So it seems more likely that you are wrong

    Pretty sure NC hit it on the head with identifying a concussion in practice as the cause of the barfing. I remember now he had just taken a shot to the head before leaving the field. Concussions cause nausea. But go ahead and claim it was because he was too fat if it plays into your argument, the truth be damned.

    And wasn't it you who put so much belief into Costello's (and only Costello's) claim that Becton was disciplined for being fat? Has he been kicked out of the locker room?

    My argument wasn't that the run game would've eventually worked, it was that completely cutting it out of the equation can hurt an offense as well. I also think they should've tried to get to the edge, fast linebackers or not against the Buccs.

    Where is this guy? I thought we were looking at 4-6 and we’re rolling on what? Week 11? I haven’t even seen him mentioned.

    What's the O/U on Becton's weight right now? I'll set the number at 385.

    Simple Twitter search yielded he was seen on the practice field for the first time since surgery.

    Fat boy should play RT. He is not a franchise LT.

    Can’t wait for the all comments blasting Becton for saying he’s out of shape when he got knee surgery and couldn’t run for 8 weeks.

    Yeah it's not like Becton has a history of being overweight or anything. Nope, totally out of his control!

    Being overweight is one thing.

    Being unable to play being his conditioning is poor is another. I’m referring to his conditioning, you know his ability to actually play a full 60 minute football game.

    Have they said it's his conditioning that's keeping him out?

    It’s not his weight thats for sure.

    He hasn’t practiced in 2 months so he’s definitely not in football shape regardless of what his weight is.

    Well he is pretty lucky, it could have turned out like Ruggs. If I were him I would be squeaky clean going forward! Has a lot to lose.
