Note... Check out Baldy's right pinky.
Mikefive's theory: The only time you KNOW that a sports team player, coach or management member is being 100% honest is when they're NOT reciting "the company line".

Go back to leather helmets, NFL.

Common for former NFL linemen. Anthony Munoz' are way worse:

He is such a smart DL. So smart. Wow! Very glad he's a Bear.

A great video. I am so glad we landed Hicks and I hope he ends his career here. Those pics of the fingers gave me the willies though!

Best think is there are other vids showing that he's helping RRH to learn all this also, or maybe it's the DL coach that has them all learning this. Either way it's great to see how the lines have to use so many different techniques all based on knowledge of the player accross from them, and that teams play design.

Would love to see the opposite side also, how the OL are supposed to counter all that.

I met Munoz a couple of years ago and I never noticed that! Just checked my photos and he had his left hand clenched in all of them. He must have tucked that finger under his others, probably to stop people getting grossed out!
