PJBrown7 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 26th for a playoff team returning their core contributors, adding a stud WR, returning a top 5 defense that likely improved and is super well coached?

Same with the long ball, give them a chance to make a play or get the PI call. The 10 yard overthrow won’t be an INT, but get it close and it just might work out for us. Know down/distance and game situation. A pick on a long ball might be almost as good as a punt. I have high hopes for him this year. I agree with this...but not sure who remembers the movie "Signs" with Mel Gibson. Joaquin Phoenix's character gets ribbed a little by a person in town for striking out a lot on the local baseball team and Joaquin replies "it didnt feel right not swinging". I get that sense from Josh...he seems like someone who will always go for it rather than take the low hanging fruit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singletary fumbling problem, a team write 'gone rogue' and Josh Norman not looking good. I know the author say they are based on how teams look in camp...but they also say they take into consideration how good the team is overall. And how can you rank a team based on a couple weeks of training camp performance when very little actual footage/info is coming out of camps this year and no games are being played? Hope this isn't a repost, I took a quick scan of current topics and didn't see it anywhere. Who cares. That's ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and we have a couple backs now who can catch it and make some guys miss. Also, let's run some screen passes to them and Diggs. We seem to have an aversion to screens.
