Back in the day, you could do things like that. I'm not sure if I remember Rypien being one of those, but Joe was kinda infamous for that sort of thing.
Thanks for the chuckle.

Remember Ryp stood on the sidelines with Joe for about a year and a half
Remember too that Ryp constantly had the ball stripped from him on the blind side and stood in the pocket like a statue. I don't remember Gibbs complaining about Ryp's fumbles. Seems to me he blamed the blocking in Ryp's case...I don't even remember complaints about Ryp taking all day to throw.
Oh well, Ryp was a Gibbs guy, Ramsey isn't.
