Message: [QUOTE="RF2044, post: 1162226, member: 40"] We both know that Lemon was injured and didn't produce much before our fourth game of the 2012 season. He might have played in two of those first three, but had a very limited impact and sat for lengthy stints because he wasn't right physically and just couldn't perform. He bounced back in a big way against Minnesota / game 4 [I was at this game]. After that, when we were 1-3, we had a bye and at that point he was able to return, generally back to being fully healthy. Lemon's impact on the rest of the season was obvious [for example, he was unstoppable down the stretch in the Missouri game, even though everyone knew the ball was going his way], as was his negligible impact on the first few games of the year. It is amazing how much more effective an offense can be when they have go-to playmakers. Lemon and Sales gave us such players, despite not being classic burners. [/QUOTE]
