It also wasn't the only time in the Texans game.

Mel Kiper has the bills taking Shenault Jr

Actually this sounds exactly like someone Beane would draft. He likes physical freaks that haven't necessarily gotten it together on the field. The Process will coach them up. I'm thinking of Josh Allen and 19 year old Tremaine Edmunds. -
I watched it but it was pretty lame. I'd say not flag football, but two hand touch instead. Pretty much what it was. Gheez nobody tackles anybody. It's silly. I thought, give it to Henry. Ain't nobody gonna tackle him he can just run all the way for a TD every time. Then they did give it to him and he did the same thing. Run a few yards, stop, somebody touches him, he's down. Kindof ruins the concept of the best vs the best. If guys are that afraid to get hurt, just cancel the game. Luckily real football (XFL) starts next week.

it's the new term. My wife volunteers at a charity to help homeless people with pets. They use it. First heard of it about a month ago. Look to see it more.

No agenda. Just an observation. I read over and over Josh's comp % is low due to drops. Ok. Why does he have so many 2 years in a row with different pass catchers? The theory I read over and over it was the receivers. Maybe Josh contributes somehow? Not saying it's Josh's fault, but maybe it's both? The passes and pass catchers. Seems like a fair question.

I remember last year we had the 2:00 drop video that ticked us off. Does anyone know if there is a similar one for this year? How long is it? One thing that concerns me is we greatly upgraded our talent at WR. Yet the drops continue and are still an excuse. I'm starting to wonder what part Josh plays in this if any? Maybe he throws it too hard? Not a good spiral? Throws so many off target that when one hits a WR in the hands they don't know how to react? Some of the other guys with a lot of drops this year were Mike Evans and Kelce. I have noticed Kelce drops some footballs when watching their games. Kelce however, has Patrick so if he drops one, Patrick will put the next one on him. With Josh, said WR or TE may not get another chance with a decent pass. That could be the difference. If a guy gets a drop, the QB needs to be able to put another good pass in there. Then he gets the same number of drops, but also more completions.

I was the original person to say he wasn't a process guy. What I mean by a "process guy" is a person that totally buys into what McDermott is selling. Coach McDermott is s great leader of men. But he needs them all to totally buy into his program which includes teamwork and loving your teammates, and no person is greater than than the team, etc. Not sure, but I suspect that maybe Clowney is not that kind of guy. If not, we can't use him. McDermott traded Sammy cuz he wasn't his kind of guy and instead holds onto Frank Gore and DiMarco because they are. Because they are "process" guys.

Running Backs A Dime a Dozen & Is It a Passing League ?
reddogblitz replied to T master's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
I think this is what it is. A few years ago the passing league thing was in full force. Teams built up defenses to stop the pass. They got quicker faster LBs etc. Played more passing Ds. Then someone noticed this and decided to ram it down their throat. It works. So as teams will gear their D back to stop the run, then the passing league stuff will start over again. As far as RBs being a dime a dozen, I don't buy it. Sure you can get half way decent guys cheap. But if you want someone like Henry or Shady (when we got him) or Zeke Elliot, you gotta pay. You get what you pay for. What if the Titans put a dime a dozener Yeldon in there? Does he do what Henry does. I doubt it. -

Sammy Watkins: New Teams, Same Bad Attitude
reddogblitz replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Like Tryrod or not, that offense was #10 in scoring in the NFL. An offenses job is to score points. Doesn't have to be pretty or what you like in regards to offensive styles to be effective. that offense didn't need to make gallant 4th quarter comebacks that often because they were able to score enough points so that the D could protect it. In 2017 there were only 3 opportunities for comebacks. In one, we were down 7 at the 2:00 warning and won by 3 in regulation( bucs). Another was against Carolina where Tyrod threw a pass to Zay that probably could have been caught if he had run the right route (Steve Taker, NFL WR said he ran the wrong route). And the third was Bengals which we blew. So that's 1 out of 3. Josh was able to get a few vs Jets, Titans, Dolphins but also missed on many oppotunites against mostly good teams like NE twice, Baltimore, Cleveland, Houston. If you add them all he's probably close to 3 out of 8 which not rally much of a higher percentage than we did before 33% vs 38% (maybe up to 50). But if we were able to score more points we wouldn't need all these comebacks especially with the defense we have. -
the QB there is Mason Fine out of my alma mater The University of North Texas. He was in while the West scored 14 of their 27 points. Nice pass

So who is everyone rooting for tomorrow?

KC Game time decision on NF C game. Really don't like either team. Leaning cheese. -
Things like this is what give me pause about THE PROCESS. They make some bone headed head scratches like this. The didn't want Josh to start. They had a Vet they cut that could have started over Josh. They didn't sign any vet QBs even though there were many available. Instead they went with the money ball approach and took McCarron and he couldn't make the team. Then they go into the year with Nate Peterman, a guy with only 2 shaky starts under his belt and the rook they didn't want to play. Then when Josh did get hurt they couldn't even play the guy they kept and had to sign street FAs Derek and Baker. This didn't just happen to THE PROCESS, it was totally self inflicted. I saw a similar thing this year with RB. We had 4 of them. 1st, Singletary was great but he is small and they didn't want to run him too much cuz they didn't know how much he could take. 2nd string was Gore who they couldn't give it to much because he was 36 years old and after the first 5 games rarely got more than 1 yard per carry. Then they had a 3rd string guy they couldn't even suit up in Yeldon. Why? Is he a fumbler? Fumbled once in PS and once in RS. Did he have a history of fumbler? Not that I can find. If he was, why sign him in the first place? Then we had Penny who I guess wasn't good enough to carry the football. Oh yeah, we also had a guy that couldn't play this year. Again, a self inflicted hole. Player personnel decisions have been odd IMHO like in the cases above. Hopefully these kind of blunders are behind us since they've taken ownership and learned.

I think you might be talking about me Come on man. ?football fandom is all about opinion. I've been reading your stuff and I see ? where you're coming from. I just disagree. No biggee. They ain't gonna do what I say anyway. Yes, McDermott and Beane said they would build a perennial contender. I don't recall them saying they would keep an under performing OC for 3 years.
