Christian needs 183 yards next game to move into top 10 yards from scrimmage for a season. That seems pretty doable. He needs to average 194 the next 2 to be number 1 all time.
I agree it was a pretty stripped down version of the option but he still averaged over 5 ypc on 122 attempts and completed less than 50 percent of his passes. Yes he did attempt more deep passes than Jackson and had less surrounding talent but 47 percent is still low.
I always thought he would...
I think the run pass option is essentially giving your qb training wheels. I don't think it does the qb any favors in the long run which is why I'm not too concerned with having a White qb run it. It's comparable to having a super dominant running back and play action works every single time. I...
I never compared him to Cunningham. I said most running qbs fail after a while. A few can adapt but a majority will fail. I think Cunningham was not just a runner even early on, he could also use his mobility to extend plays in the pocket . I think it's the same with alot of our guys that were...
I get that the focus of conversation should be elsewhere but I frequent DWF fan boards and many there seem to think that the NFL is trying hard to prop up Mahomes and the Chiefs with favourable calls and non calls. I haven't watched any of their games so I can't say but it seems to match up with...
Yes I know , I have made many Highlight videos and the only one that was ever taken down was the one advocating for Tebow to be a running back. It was a video showing all of his college runs and it was taken down. I was flagged for copyright infringement before but it just keeps the video up and...
I don't understand why more offenses don't utilize the pistol formation since it gives you the benefit of both shotgun and the I formation. It's mostly used for black quarterbacks but it doesn't necessarily have to be used that way.
If I were the coordinator I would be lining up Christian under center...
This happens every half decade where dwfs are mesmerized that a team can put a running back behind center that can sort of throw and pretty much all of them fall off after a short stint. It's exciting to watch but it's still not a long term viable solution.
It is a shame that our athletic guys...
It's a pretty good analysis but I think if anyone could figure it out, it would be Bellicheck. Perhaps it won't be until the postseason though . One solution would be to utilize Burkhead more in the passing game. It would be awesome if they convinced Jordy to come out of retirement but that...
I watched that video on YouTube and the perception amongst dwfs is that Edelman is only "schemed" open and only goes against safeties and linebackers. It's amazing no other team can scheme people open like that except the Patriots and even the Patriots can't seem to do that with any other...
Crazy that dwfs don't see a double standard. Can you imagine if the NFL only had one black guy drafted to be a franchise qb in a 30 year period and he sets passing records? They are giving multiple black quarterbacks chances every year and only getting lucky once in a blue moon. It's probably been...
Yea it pretty much happened to Hillis and he was 10 times better. He never got a good deal and got **** on by multiple media outlets for missing a game with strep throat and missing a Halloween charity event. People act like he was a one hit wonder but his 2011 season was plagued by hamstring...
Yea if you had a lockdown corner that teams couldn't exploit. Most corners are terrible so if you brought a safety you could be more easily exploited in the passing game. If the best players actually played it would be less of a problem.
Does that even exist? lol
Most if not all of our guys can catch well. It just comes down to opportunity. Brock Forsey didn't get a chance to showcase his receiving ability in the NFL but he had over 100 career catches in college for 1100 yards. Lockwood had 50 receptions in college. I do agree...
Well not only that (the typical west coast offense) the Patriots upped it and used to be the master of option routes . On those, not only is Brady going to throw it to a particular predetermined spot, that spot can differ based on what the defense is doing. So the receiver HAS to be on the same...
I remember watching him fly down the field as well, I just googled him, apparently he is the wide receivers coach for the Bills. I wonder if he had any influence in bringing in Beasley, who is also 5'8
Same thing when McCaffrey was younger. Not taken seriously and mistaken for a kicker. Even though he's the same size as multiple backs in the NFL, ones that rushed for 10k or close to it
I don't understand how defenders and defensive coordinators so easily forget. Rg3 and Kaepernick had similar initial success and then over time were shut down, rg3 still had rushing success his second season but threw 16 tds to 12 interceptions posting a 3-10 record. Kaepernick same thing, still...
Edit: looks like Hartline beat me to it. Did you notice the other announcers just kind of shut up after he said that?
Wow anybody catch this? They were saying good things about Taysom Hill on TNF, the announcers were saying typical compliments that are "appropriate" for a White player like "he...
