  1. UGH. Stop being so cute. If you're gonna pitch the ball, pitch it to Foreman. Getsy: it's not always about confusing defenses, this is the NFL, sometimes your guy just has to run over their guy. So having Mooney be your lead blocker, and asking a WR to carry a guy several yards on his back, might not be the best thing. I know Moore has done it before, but those were DBs, not LBs.
  2. Also, it should be said, that after several years of seeming like he was underperforming, Kmet is really maturing this year. And he is still very young.
  3. and it will loosen up the defense for the running game too. That's football 101.
  4. yeah on that play I think youre right. Ill wait for the all 22, but I think youre right.
  5. OK great throw to Kmet! Ball came out fast. That's what Im hoping to see.
  6. Nice pick by JJ! Too bad EJax had to have a penalty. So far this game is just everything we've seen so far. All the good and all the bad. We are who we think we are? The good news is unlike other years where everything was broken, we can truly see where the changes need to be made, and what is working.
  7. true, and we definitely need an upgrade at center, but if Fields was getting the ball out fast, it wouldnt be the same issue. Try counting seconds (correlated with how many steps his drop is) before Goff releases, then count those seconds for Fields and see if Fields is touched before you get to the point where Goff releases.
  8. and that's coaching. you gotta have a response to something like that.
  9. I think when your QB has a bunch of designed runs, they call the hits a little less maybe?
  10. Yeah he's great at that stuff, but he isn't pulling the trigger in rhythm. It always takes those heroics. And he is quite a hero. But why even have plays?
  11. David Montgomery is still a great back, and we dont miss him at all. EDIT: and he drops the easy pass lol
  12. Ha! DJ Moore with the fake reverse to Fields. Doing a great job using JF as a running back on the scripted drive.
  13. Better than asking Mooney to be the lead blocker on screens. sheesh.
  14. I think Poles knew he was reaching when he drafted Jones and did it anyway because he had to to try to evaluate Fields. i dont think he thought it was a smart pick, I think he knew he was in an impossible situation and took a low percentage swing to try to get something. I think Poles knew it wasnt ideal, and was trapped. I dont think it's part of his normal way of thinking. Same with Claypool.
  15. I dunno, I think it's just professional to support your QB. I would be very angry if DJ Moore had said anything different.
  16. right, there are always exceptions, and maybe Williams is one of them, but 6' 0" aint good for a QB
  17. I think he saw speed, and took a flyer that they could teach him. They needed a fast WR to open the defense and give Justin a deep target. We reached. We reached because we needed to evaluate Fields. We reached, and it didnt work out. Reaching is often a mistake. So I GET it. I know why he did it, but its obviously not the way to build a team in general. It was two years ago, and we had nothing to really build the team with yet. So I kind of give Poles a break for him and Claypool - same problem, and unfortunately same outcome too. But i dont think Poles would have taken a Velus Jones in the 3rd this past year, or in this coming draft. We not in that needing to reach situation anymore.
  18. Jaden Daniels wins the Heisman.
  19. Oh Im not saying there wont be busts, or future studs that arent highly ranked - just that even Ryan Leaf was high on peoples lists, so he was gonna go early. Im trying to think of the players that were highly ranked, and slid the most. Warren Sapp, Randy Moss, both for marijuana LOL Aaron Rodgers fell from #2 to 24th I think? But I guess in general, highly ranked players, future studs and busts alike, still get drafted high?
  20. yeah, 6' 3" is one thing, but 6' 1" or even worse, 6' 0" is another. Course tell that to Doug Flutie LOL
  21. Velus is a disaster. I saw some film from camp this year - someone was working with him on catching punts. They were telling him "when the punter is right footed, the ball fades to the right, when the punter is left footed, it fades to the left." And Velus was like repeating it, trying to memorize "right = right" and "left = left." Seriously. And this isn't his first year catching punts either. I think he might be a big dummy.
  22. if you go to that site, and click all, you can see the intra-positional rankings, and get a guess at where QBs might go - of course ratings are subjective and different teams drafting will have different needs and ratings on players, but overall if you see a gug going int he top 10, they probably wont be there are pick 20 for example. It looks like 4 QBs in the top 10. https://www.nfldraftbuzz.com/positions/ALL/1/2024
