He had 16 tackles 1 sack and a couple hurries noot sure exactly how many. This kid was essentially the defense. Just says that if that D line can keep th OL off our LBs we got got some guy who get to the. Him and Angerer are gonna be pretty good duo in the middle. Oh an Freeman has 85tackls on the season already. I knew I liked tbis kid right after we got him and and I watched some video.

Any chance he wins DROY?

He was a beast out there today.

Frankly since he was a CFL player I don't know if people who vote on that really think of him as a "true" rookie. I don't mean to say that I think they don't vote for him because of that reason I think he just kinda gets forgotten as a rookie because fo the CFL tie. With that said if he did he would be deserving of it.

I doubt it. He was with the Titans I believe on the practice squad few years ago. Then he was cut, which led him to go to the CFL. I think that counted as his rookie year.

I thought that as he was cut prior to the season it didn't count as his debut season, but I may be wrong. Either way he's not a "true" rookie and that could cause him to get overlooked as stated above.

I bet half of Freemans tackles were after at least an 8 yard gain. So Gary Brackett.

Very average in pass coverage. #`s can be deceiving.

I can`t give our ILB`ers a real grade because we have a Horrible NT in Johnson.

Johnson can be knocked back at will, can not shuck a block, and makes plays rarely.

I'll take that bet.

I would easily take that bet. The guy is consistently blasting RB's at the LoS. The only "bad" game I'd say he's had, along with the rest of the team, was the Jets game. His game against the Vikings made me a believer. He was going to head to head with Peterson and dropping him like he was nothing. Very few LB's have ever done that to Peterson.

BLOODontheTRACKS I was getting to the fact they were UDFA and Bracket was Solid for the Colts form many years. Now Freeman an UDFA ILB has come in and is doing what hes done and may end up beinv a solid IlB for us for years to come. Well see though. Im guessing you didnt think too much of Bracket?

    • Yeah... Richardson needs players who can separate and who can get open deep. IMO "give the inaccurate QB a contested catch receiver with large catch radius" is one of the tropes that hasn't proven to work well. Contested catches have about 50-55% success rate even with the best of contested catch receivers and with relatively accurate QBs... now if you think AR's accuracy is not good, drop that rate even more. The best way to give a relatively inaccurate QB better chance to complete passes is to give him a WR who separates and and who is open so the QB would have more of a margin for error to throw the ball a little behind or ahead or a little higher or lower than ideal. (we are not talking about uncatchable balls here... those will be uncatchable for anyone really). In that regard, one thing I would agree about is - we need WRs who have good hands and have good ball skills.   And this is ignoring that AR has indeed been pretty good with his accuracy on passes at intermediate and long range. His biggest problem coming into the league was the short stuff and he was already showing improvements in that deparment before he got injured.    And Worthy is the WR who created the most separation from anybody in this draft :   
    • Richardson  accuracy  on deep balls is his strength.  Hence why you pair an elite deep threat in worthy.
