TNF: Saints vs Broncos

[Hoenheim]

That was almost Rattlers 2nd lost fumble of the game lol

Looks like the Broncos have figured out they just need to ride Javante Williams.

Broncos run game is working pretty well in the first half of the game

That was about as blown up as a play gets right there. At no point did that have any opportunity for success 

[Hoenheim]

Denver goes on a lengthy drive mostly by running the ball. Easy running TD to go up 13-0 on the Saints halfway through the 2nd quarter. 

Bo Nix had a nice throw on the run to Troy Franklin on that drive. He was one of the WRs I wanted the most in the draft. I honestly liked Franklin, AD Mitchell. and X.Worthy more than Legette. But only time will tell which ones will be successful i guess. 

In the very early going out of that group of WRs, Legette and Worthy seem to be better. Not sure those 2nd tier of drafter WR are gonna compete with the first tier of Brian Thomas JR, Malik Neighbors, or Marvin Harrison JR. But we'll see

So Rattler looks probably about the same or slightly better than BY for what, a 5th round pick?

This Saints drive is pretty good. Rattler with a really good 4th down conversion on a high floater ball to TE, then he has a long scramble down the sideline 

[Hoenheim]

Denver D Line,  is getting a ton of penetration in the backfield almost immediately on a lot of the Saints offensive plays. Rattler is barely escaping pressure on lot of plays and RBs are getting stuffed in the backfield.

I played vs Williams alma mater in high school. Small school, but one of the best football school in the Carolina's. They have won a lot of state championships throughout their history.

 

Nate Irving was the star during my time. NC State LB was on his way to being the best college football LB in the Nation. Got in a bad car accident changed his career although he still got drafted he was robbed of his true talent. He was supposed to be up there with Kuechly.

 

Google him he was a beast before the car accident. Also look at the car he's lucky to be alive.

Hard to judge Rattler on me just watching him on the first 2 quarters of this game. But I like him more thus far. Had some pretty nice scrambles and throws so far. Has the expected rookie questionable decisions that lead to 2 lost fumbles (one didnt count because of defensive penalty). 

Bo Nix looked shaky early like Bryce. But he's since settled down and made some decent intermediate throws.

Neither QBs are really attempting to throw deep. Rattler had one deep pass attempt and his WR tripped and fell before the ball got there.  Theres a lot of short passes and running in this game in general. OCs and HCs are protecting their rookie qbs probably.

[LinvilleGorge]

Holy poo Nix, what was THAT?

How'd that DB drop that?
