Tressed for Success?

By our tally, there are 164 players in the NFL with hair that grows past their ears. Here's a breakdown by team and position:

1. Green Bay Packers 10 players
2. Arizona Cardinals 9
2. Minnesota Vikings 9
4. 5 teams(CIN, TEN, NE, IND, JAX) 8
32. Detroit Lions 1



LOL at the Lions being last. They suck. :thumbright:

Of the 164 players with long hair, 104 play defense. And for good reason: Defensive players don't have to fear being dragged down by their hair while carrying the ball, which is not a penalty in the NFL. "Guys are conscious of it," says former defensive end Marcellus Wiley, now an ESPN commentator. No one likely knows this better than Edgerrin James. In 2003, the running back was tackled by his dreadlocks during a game. He showed up the next week with a haircut.



Lol.

Gotta admire those Lions. If they go for last place, they go for last place everywhere.

So who are the 10 players? I can only think of these:

1. Al Harris
2. Atari Bigby
3. A.J. Hawk
4. Clay Matthews
5. Nick Barnett (I think)
6. Brandon Chillar (I think)

They are all on the defense.

I can think off:

7. Quinn Johnson
8. Tramon Williams (Maybe, going that way, anyway).

And then maybe PS members?

9. Jake Allen

And then we're still missing one. Even while pulling in guys that are long shots. Maybe on of the O-linemen like Barbre who has some hair coming out of his helmet.

That thing with the Lions makes me think they must have a Samson complex,

Cut off their hair and they lose all their strength.

I believe Allen Barbre has hair grown past his ear also, or at least one of our linemen do.

Are you sure it's Spitz? He's the one with the French-like moustache and the short hair. Sitton has a little longer hair, though.
