It is clear you are fairly young not to remember Oben's performance down the stretch (playoffs) in 02. If I recall correctly (anyone can correct me) the Bucs o-line surrendered zero sacks in their playoff run. Oben was a part of that, and to suggest just because he was traded for a fifth he wasn't that good is not a convincing argument. That is one of the bigger black marks against Allen.
Jason Peters is overrated, and it is a travesty he made the Pro Bowl.
Oben, like the rest of the team, played excellently down the stretch in '02.� I never said otherwise.� What I said was he played better as a Charger than as a Buc.� The fact that the Chargers didn't trade him for a 5th rounder, or any other pick, backs that up.Which Pro Bowl?� That overrated player has been selected as the starter for two of them.
It is your opinion he played better as a Charger than a Buc. But I do not think his play a Charger at any time eclipsed what he did during the Super Bowl run.
The argument that he wasn't traded away by the Chargers as a justification for him playing better as a Charger than a Buc is a poor one. The Chargers did draft this guy named McNeil in 2006 to replace a declining Oben remember?
If you can't come to grips with how Jason Peters is overrated based on the facts that is your problem. For the rest of us where we seek these facts it is clear as day what the number of sacks allowed by him indicates.
You're comparing 5 or 6 games as a Buc to 24 as a Charger.  Oben was consistently better as a Charger, IMO.  You can hold on to that short span as evidence if you like. Yes, I do.  Oben's injuries greatly contributed to that.Those sack numbers have more to do with JP Losman than Peters.  Losman was sacked three times more often than Edwards when he was in the game.It helps if you actually watch the games than just being a stat jockey.
to draft a LT in the first round, and then to proceed to start that LT as a rookie.
Now you are trying to justify how he allowed so many sacks because of different QB's? Â Tell me was Buffalo the only team to have different QB's to play in the 2008 season?

Well, Ware had 10 games in a row with a sack, a record, before facing Penn.Take it for what it's worth.Quote from: dalbuc on February 18, 2009, 07:53:22 PMThis really is the same bit as Davis, well he didn't give up a sack in game X so he must be good. The aggregate of his effort isn't good and his sack total over the last 2 years is nothing inspiring.The difference between Davis and Penn is the pressure on the QB was almost always coming from Davis' side. That can't be said of Penn.

I'm excited about raheem and no john but monty being gone scares me..
Penn did a good job on Ware. That game was one of the Garcia specials where he was running from pressure that wasn't there and taking the checkdown way too often.
I do not recall anyone calling AD pro bowl worthy. He simply threw that in there as an ad hominem attack knowing he can not debate the topic at hand.
