Why would you say that?  There’s very little evidence that a punt return is more dangerous than any other touch.  Over the years, lots of teams have had their best players return punts…

I think Hairston's going to be a great CB-- but he ain't built for getting tackled!

He’s about 15 lbs bigger than Worthy. Just sayin’.  

You mean the guy who was out for 2 1/2 games after bumping into Travis Kelce-- a collision that Travis barely noticed, but sent Worthy ass over elbows?

Stick him out there instead of Coleman a few plays a game see what happens. Half joking…but half not!

I half vomit emoji.

When I saw this thread I thought it was an idea to use Hairston and his speed as a kick returner.

Not so crazy? From AI:

 

Maxwell Hairston had a standout high school career at West Bloomfield High School in Michigan, graduating in 2021. He was a standout on the football team, playing both offense and defense, and led his team to a state championship victory in his senior year in 2020, catching the game-winning touchdown in double overtime. In his final high school season, he recorded 16 pass deflections, three interceptions, and three forced fumbles. 

 

Yeah, it's not gonna happen. But I do believe the NFL coaches don't think outside the box often enough. 

Can't Keon Coleman try to bulk up a bit and play TE? Can't Max Hairston run a fly pattern a couple times a game? Can't Josh Allen play special teams?

As i recall a fumble on a jet sweep was a big part of why we lost to the Patriots.  Put that play in the shredder and then burn the shreds.

that doesn’t seem like something to dwell on

Hairston can high point a ball better than Coleman. Fight me.

Yes, that would be the guy. That was a fun little story I enjoyed thoroughly.

What if we wait til a big 4th down and do a tricky lil jet sweep to him

Why not, they're going to keep trying to run that play anyway just to prove it works.

The start of every great thread, "Hear me out."

That was the only thing missing from the "Lose on Purpose Now" thread.

Guys, OBD just sent me an email. I am invited to a open WR tryout today. 

 

Wish me luck

[chris heff]

When ever anyone starts with “hear me out”. I’m pretty sure I’m not going to.

[Prospector]

with our DE out with an achilles, let's have Knox play DE on passing downs.

[Big Turk]

 

Fax Hairston and Wax Hairston say no.

 

 

[Bockeye]

Let’s have McDermott play Defensive Coordinator!

[Pete]

Max tracks the ball great and is a play making ballhawk

Keon would be play pattycakes and Max would be making plays
