"The conclusion is that there's just no way," Joe Buck said with a hearty laugh. "I really love this kid, Troy. Just admit it, a new era is dawning. The age of the NFL being dominated by Black and white players is over."
Joe Buck had a point.
Instead of dying down after his arrogant remarks at the press conference, the industry's discussion surrounding Li Wei only intensified as the sample size of his games grew.
Some mainstream media outlets even launched dedicated daily tactical analysis columns, inviting various Hall of Fame defensive linebackers and tactical gurus to try and build a model within the existing NFL framework that could "contain" Li Wei.
Yes, contain.
No team was arrogant enough to use the word "stop" when talking about Li Wei anymore.
Some suggested an extreme all-out blitz, hoping to use superior numbers to bring Li Wei down the moment the ball was snapped.
