  1. Rhule is going to mimic the Ravens.
  2. Matt Moore was a solid backup QB. The problem was asking him to be more than that.
  3. PJ Walker was asked to do his job once. He did it. 1-0. Coming in late in a game you are losing and taking shots to try to get a team back into it instead of just trying to get out of there....I put in a different category. Is PJ Walker great? Nah. Is he a NFL backup QB? Sure. League is full of guys you don't want to be your starter because they aren't good enough. In fact, a mobile guy like PJ is a great backup QB because he can offer a lot in game prep for opponents IMO. My stance remains the same, if you are complaining about PJ Walker. The real issue isn't PJ. It's the dude ahead of him.
  4. I personally think we have two pretty decent backup QBs. and then there is Will Grier.
  5. but would a NFL team still owing rights of a player prohibit them from employment as a non-player elsewhere?
  6. if you are running a NFL camp or a camp for 10 year olds and you happen to be tight with Luke Kuechly....I think you would ask him to swing by.
  7. A miracle might be a bit of a stretch. There is a team in NY that once gave up only 168 total yards.....and still managed to lose. I won't get into too many details about that miracle though.
  8. Luke Kuechly is probably the smartest guy in the room....in a lot of football rooms he walks into. I'm not saying he was forced out. But if you wanted a hypothetical reason of why a brand new and green NFL staff might not love him. That could be a reason.
  9. Gotcha. It was defiantly lucky. Got no problem with that added in
  10. yeah, that wasn't the point I was making at all. just that a super lucky play doesn't always completely void what a player did....and the outcome isn't the same for every player that would have found himself in same lucky scenario. Chubba got lucky. But there was plenty also shown on that play that was Chubba being different than some other RBs we have seen on our roster.
  11. yeah, luck happens. My favorite 89 play is that one where he broke what appeared to be 57 tackles vs Houston and came out of that pile for a long and easy TD. Lot of luck involved. But probably still required 89 to take advantage of that scenario. Despite all that luck, a lot of that was still 89.
  12. also, the guy chasing Marshall was locked in on a straight line sprint going all out. Marshall was out there turning his head left and right looking for defenders to stiff arm and evade. Even if they had the exact same top end speed...the defender is going to be faster just given what the two were doing. Plays like that are why preseason games actually matter though for young guys. Real game scenarios. Learning experiences. It takes work to figure out the league where everyone is fast and strong. That probably was an easy TD in college for him. Gotta find another gear and moves to pull it off in a NFL game.
  13. again, preseason games give you the chance for actual game reps and scenarios. We literally went on the road in a dome that had opposing fans. That is where you prep your team for playing in those environments. To practice. Any road dome, even in the preseason, can get loud. So yeah, I would think a very basic silent count is kind of basic stuff you would have guys prepared to practice. Clearly they discussed it. Grier alluded to that. Rhule simply thought they wouldn't need it per Grier. Rhule is just a green HC. It is showing and people act like someone called their child ugly every time it gets brought up. Our own QBs are the ones who keep pointing out the prep just isn't there yet. and then the counter, is to claim like people are claiming the world is ending. No, the world isn't ending. Rhule just needs to get better.
  14. Sly needs to go. We basically keep him so we can trot him out to attempt and miss a 70 yard circus kick. I’d rather just have a more consistent 30-50 range kicker
  15. Will Grier is a really bad QB to date. He needs reps on basics. Not holding a lead. Will Grier could never lead this team to a lead to hold at this stage.
  16. PJ’s two biggest plays were a byproduct of the play breaking down because he was using his feet. I think PJ has Tyrod Taylor potential. I’ve just never seen anything from Grier.
  17. oh yeah, and there also is hand clocked times by coaches lol.
  18. Gotcha. Yeah, 4.4 isn’t runaway from the field speed anymore. Especially the way guys train to get their 40 time. Football speed vs timed 40 speed. You can also have two guys with 4.4 speed and it also just looks different in a game.
  19. Guys like Samuel have that quick change of direction speed. Robby more that straight line speed. DJ IMO is the perfect mix. I don’t care Marshall got caught from behind. He isn’t suppose to be that type dude. was a more surprised with Chubba
  20. As a reminder, Matt Rhule is the 6th highest paid HC in the NFL.
