Game Day Blog R22: David in the Eye of the Storm (Tight Loss 16-10)

Poppa's Corner: Five-Eights and Fullbacks

This is receiving a fair bit of discussion and was touched upon in NOS' outstanding blog on the now-injured Iongi. I thought it could be better discussed in isolation where some may like to offer their observations over the years of similar compariso
