I don't like that comparison at all. It's arguable that Jimmy Graham is the best in his respected league at his position, at worst #2. Can the same be said of Ryno? And this is coming from an Anderson fan, I know how good he is.
I understand the point of how 1 player's absence can effect a defense but in a sport where you get 82 games to show how good you are, shouldn't the coach be held accountable for making adjustments?
