It鈥檚 not uncommon for sons to follow in their father鈥檚 footsteps no matter what profession. Depending on how great the father was at his specific line of work http://www.dallascowboysteamonline.com/demarcus-ware-jersey , sons may find that their father鈥檚 footsteps left some pretty big footprints. This is especially true for fathers who were larger-than-life football players. Some of these legendary athletes leave some huge shoes to fill, and the expectations of second generation athletes are usually way too high. While some sons still have respectable careers in the NFL, with some athletes even surpassing their fathers, many players don鈥檛 even come close to the accolades of their fathers Marcedes Lewis Jersey , or their brothers for that matter.
The strong football bloodline of popular NFL families like The Mannings or the Matthews breeds a strong pedigree for these sons of former players. This also tempts fans and analysts to create comparisons between father and son (or sons) and even between brothers. In some cases, the brothers have actually played against each other and even a rare father versus son has occurred, such as the famous 鈥淪hula Bowl鈥?which happened twice.
Regardless of whether or not these match-ups happen in the NFL or not, sports fans expect (sometimes unfairly) that the natural athleticism runs in the family and are a bit surprised when sons don鈥檛 measure up to the abilities of their fathers or their brother. Here are聽10 NFL dads who were much better than their sons Brett Maher Jersey , and 10 brothers who were better than their siblings.
The Cardinals saw what they needed to see from David Johnson and Christian Kirk. They will have to wait until next week to see more from Sam Bradford and Josh Rosen.
Bradford, who had not taken a snap in game action since Week 5 last season, played only one series and threw only one pass. A 38-yard punt return by Kirk on his first touch and back-to-back 14-yard runs by Johnson, who was injured in the season opener last season Youth C.J. Mosley Jersey , set up an eight-play, 45-yard touchdown drive.
Bradford completed his only pass, a 6-yarder to tight end Ricky Seals-Jones, before running back Chase Edmonds punched it in with a brilliant 2-yard run.
Bradford gave way to the 10th overall pick after that.
While Rosen won’t get the attention the higher-drafted quarterbacks will get after the first week of the preseason Womens Mattias Ekholm Jersey , he got no help. The UCLA product played behind a shaky second-team offensive line, and backup center Daniel Munyer was all over the place with his shotgun snaps.
Rosen finished 6-of-13 for 41 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions.
