I was hoping he could get 119 rushing yds to be the first w 2k passing and 2k rushing but they dead set on not letting him run biting on a lot of play fakes, they need to do play action further down the field just rushed for a td but needs 99 more rushing yds. Now they lead 7 to 6.
well, it takes an average of 62.5 yards per game to reach 1k. If a player has 4 or 5 100 yard games and reaches 1k, then he probably isn't as consistent, since it wouldn't take that much to get another 500 over 11 or 12 games. Only 20 players broke 1k last season (looks like it might be around...
Yeah but it still could be risky, what if there is no space to run for Brees if the tight end isn't open? He was sacked 5 or 6 times with pressure in his face all night. He has a habit of having too much confidence in his accuracy and gets picked off, like trying to squeeze it in a tight space...
actually it was 3 different plays, the Saints tend to run the ball only to run the clock out. First one was Ingram designed to go off right tackle, 2nd one was supposed to be between the right guard and right tackle. Then the 3rd one was designed to go right up the gut. Fans have complained...
that was on the players on that td throw. Malcolm Jenkins came on a blitz had a straight shot at Newton unblocked and goes right past him, and its a tendency of Newton always steps back when pressure is coming, so that was just complete stupidity by Jenkins by going past him.
and now Newton...
Hartline with a 50 yard reception.
and after the Saints had like 8 opportunities in the redzone, Brees finally connects with Graham for a td, and they show Kuechly taking off his helmet frustrated.
I am guessing if it was a Saints player then it would be Will Herring, the only White who rotates into the defense, or Scam.
Kuechly now has 20 tackles for the day. Yet Saints fans thought he wasn't first round worthy. Now they have to deal with him twice a year.
play of the day, Lawfirm...
Kuechly with 16 tackles, 11 of them solo, and an interception. Sucks that Scam is their qb.
Too bad that the league I have Kuechly in, I just missed out on the playoffs, and my all White team is playing in a championship game and the other guy has Kuechly. I have Paul Poz who is always good for...
44, still I think FootballDad has me beat, I didn't take it under those kinds of conditions, I got 5 hours of sleep last night (which is good for me) and the only thing I did today was deal with a crying baby for a few hours.
relax, common sense, confidence, which brings me to another excuse for low test scores "back test anxiety" (don't think thats the official name for it but the idea is that "society expects them to perform poorly and so they do"
Saints already grooming a guy from Tulane, Ryan Griffin, showed promise on a crappy offensive team, and showed promise in training camp/preseason. He has a lot to learn. Sean Payton has a different personnel package for every few plays, which might be their reason for struggling on the road...
you forgot the excuse that they don't care about some "racist" test that has nothing to do with football. Yes the questions aren't football related, but they assess your ability to figure out questions in a short period of time (which adds stress). That relates to the quarterback position, they...
i played ball with a black guy that landed in the NFL. Played at a somewhat small program in college and we keep in touch once in a blue moon since he family lives in the area and goes to my church. I brought up the question of what he thinks of the fans. He doesn't really hate dwfs from my...
lets do some revisionist history on this 85 Superbowl. Craig James was coming off two straight 100 yard rushing games in the playoffs being a crucial part in bringing them to the Superbowl. What would have happened if the guy behind center played decently and wasn't the ONLY qb to START a...
Merry Christmas, let us all remember what it is really about. I was driving home from work today, and I happen to live past a mall, a big truck swerved into my lane knocking off my right head light and now the bumper is hanging low. Didn't catch his plate, he kept driving. People are driving...
that was with +4.3 m/s wind aid, so it wasn't legal, doesn't count officially, it was a 9.98. Thats more than double the wind legal aid of +2 m/s. Sorry dude. His best wind legal time was 10 seconds with +1.4. He is a good return man at 5'5 and 166 and thats about it, offers little else. Too...
Staford could be better, too often forces it to Calvin Johnson, even Gruden saw that Durham was wide open deep and he forced it to Johnson for an incomplete. Megatron has two drops so far, right to the hands, 7 targets, 2 catches for 8 yards.
doesn't stop Tomlin from "coaching." Every black head coach in the league is known as a tamp 2 specialist, with the exception of Romeo Crennel, not sure what scheme he was with, the only guy that didn't coach dbs before head coach, he coached the line.
So if they had someone else run the...
Flynn is a starting qb, maybe an average one but compared to some of the guys in the league he can make it. Rodgers can fit those throws in there because he is elite, only a top few in the NFL can make throws like him. Others have their limitations and the coaches scheme around it to maximize...
Kirk throws a td to potentially tie the game and send it to overtime but they go for two. With the new OT rules I would have just kickd the extra point. They lose by one point, he was close to 400 yards today with 3 tds 2 int.
Matt Asiata with 30 carries for 51 yards, although 3 tds from short...
This is where gronk would help, in the redzone.
Kirk has 2 tds to go along with 2 interceptions. Thats the main thing he has to work on, he has a gunslinging attitude, the opposite of RG3, which leads to picks, he has to work on that, but has showed promise.
He has been sacked ONCE. So much...
hey I wouldn't want him to rush back, Hillis kept playing on a tweaked hammy and it got worse, and ruined his 2011 season, he could have proven himself after all the bad press on the field but that hamstring kept him back, he would wrap it with heat just until it felt good and then go practice...
