Edelman lacked “explosiveness,” was not “athletic” nor was he a “fast twitch athlete,” utterly lacking in “burst” and “hip swivel” and he lacked a “room-brightening smile.” That said, he had “a motor that never stopped” and “brought his lunch pail to work every day” and “was a blue collar player” and a “throwback” who was “sneaky fast” and a “technician.” Did I miss any?
Great Hands!
...and he had incredible field instincts and IQ. He knew the game of football
He was a ‘Football Player” who “came to play”.
