In space no one can hear Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Where is the fire from McGahee? Where is the burst? Where is the power? Where is any hint of receiving skills? Where is a hint of blitz pickup/blocking skills? Where is the stiff arms? Does this relate to Travis Henry being traded away in the off-season?

VABills Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 He wants a new contract and more money. I am joking everyone, lighten up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He had absolutely nowhere to go yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Campy Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 Where is the fire from McGahee?Beats me Where is the burst? With the fire Where is the power?With the burst Where is any hint of receiving skills?The QB needs to stop locking in on one WR before I'd worry too much about that. Where is a hint of blitz pickup/blocking skills?He did seem to whiff a couple of times, but that's not something I'm too worried about. Where is the stiff arms?We'll probably see them when he hits the open field, not as he's runing to/through a hole. Does this relate to Travis Henry being traded away in the off-season? 447142[/snapback] I don't think so. What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunnjam1 Posted September 20, 2005 Share Posted September 20, 2005 I agree about Willis. For all of the preseason hype around Willis he was night and day compared to Caddy. Willis seems to run tentative and doesn't have much a burst while Caddy attacks tacklers and gets yards after inital contact. I'm not buying "its the olines fault" or "our qb sucks" because last time I checked the bucs have an average oline, below average receivers and an average QB. Willis needs to run with some fire...

The only others I can think of to do so recently were named Randy Moss and Anquan Boldin. Joey Galloway might not be what he was in Seattle but imagine he could start for most NFL squads. In terms of their O-line, while I agree they're less talented then ours I was very high on Dan Buenning (their LG) in this years draft and was calling for us to draft him during most of the offseason. Finally, Brian Griese is indeed an average QB which is a far cry as to what JP is to date. As said in the preseason, JP has to prove he can beat teams with his arm for things to open things up for McGahee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, the orginal point I was making was about the running styles of Carnell v. Willis, which I think it was pretty obvious on Sunday which was more effective (i.e., even when we knew the run was coming we could not stop it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
