When you look at Jon Runyan, it's hard not to picture him being this towering force of a man on the sidelines. Turns out, it's true. This makes me happy.
"Runyan came over and said, 'Come on, we just need one (stop),' "
linebacker Takeo Spikes said of offensive tackle Jon Runyan. "I hate
that. I told the guys that the offense shouldn't have to come down here
and talk to us about that. I've never seen Runyan talk to anybody. I've
never had a conversation with Runyan. When he said that to me, I kind
of got teary-eyed. If he ever did talk to me, I didn't want it to be
about that."
Damn. Runyan's got some pull. Runyan claims he isn't as isolated as Spikes leads one to believe, "Aw, I talk to him all the time," Runyan said, before pausing. "Well, maybe not on game day."
