Jerome McDougle is STILL my favorite 'finger-pointing victim'. The guy doesn't seem to have an NFL-caliber body. (OK, I cut some slack for the gunshot). He has been continuously hurt throughout his career with one thing or another. The Eagles got bamboozled when they used a #1 on him, as did the Lions when they picked his brother, Stockar McDougle. Both brothers were definitions of the word "bust". Now Jerome DID have one VERY memorable hit during his brief time on the field. Eli Manning, I am sure, has not forgotten it. Philly was trouncing the Giants, when late in the second half, Manning makes his NFL debut. Two touchdowns later, the NYG have climbed back into the game with time running out. On what was clearly the last play of the game, Manning started running for his life. He zipped around his right tackle and got slammed by McDougle. It looked like he ran into a wall. I am answering this post , solely on the basis of that hit. It was not quite Sheldon Brown on Reggie Bush, but not too far from it.
Back on topic--In fact--YES::: I would be ecstatic if Jerome had the kind of year you started the thread with. I am more inclined to think BishopJuice called this one, though.
