Recenty added Players' Roles

Recommended Posts

What roles to you see from the players we have added over the past couple weeks.  Such as Corey Lynch, McNary, and Rogers.  What role on the team is the best and would help the team the most. 

 

T Xavier Nixon

 

OLB/DE Daniel Adongo

 

ILB Josh McNary

 

WR Da'Rick Rogers

 

S Corey Lynch

 

HB/RS Chris Rainey

 

Also, should Nixon get a crack at the starting line since most of our lineman can't handle playing in the NFL.  Also, should Adongo be activated this week and get in on ST and situational pass rushing?

T Xavier Nixon = Backup, but with the way our o-line looks I wouldn't mind him having a shot.

 

OLB/DE Daniel Adongo = I think he will be in on STs we just lost 2 STs guys to IR.

 

ILB Josh McNary = He was already in and he impressed so I think he gets more and more time to show what he can do.

 

WR Da'Rick Rogers = After DHB dropped that WIDE open pass I have to say/hope the WR order is now Hilton, Brazill, Rogers, DHB.

S Corey Lynch

 

HB/RS Chris Rainey  =  3rd RB Herron has been IRed I think Rainey will be a returner but won't be surprised to see him out there on offense.

Rogers, Mcnary, Rainey are on going to play specials teams and snaps based upon success if they have some. Nixon and Lynch are insurance player in case of injury only they play. Adongo might see some special teams but it also might be because the Colts don't want to tutor him for a year on the practice squad and then have some teams with nothing to win then pluck him from our squad before he ever sees a minute of the field.

You really think Nixon would get a start? lmao

Maybe try Nixon as one of the extra lineman when Pep does his "power running" formation. 

 

Rogers definitely should at least split HALF the reps with DHB. Or, Pep needs to be smart and only throw crossing patterns to DHB (so he can jump up and catch it since he can't catch if he doesn't jump) 

 

Adongo should gets some reps on ST.

 

McNary has already shown flashes. He should get more playing time. I'd like to see him and Freeman out there at the same time. 

 

Rainey. I'd like to see him catch a pass out of the backfield. Keep the D guessing. 

 

Lynch will only be used in a pinch. He's pretty decent, but I'd still rather have Landry out there.

T Xavier Nixon: Unless he can play G or C, he's nothing more than a backup.

OLB/DE Daniel Adongo: He'll be getting his "Rugby" on come Sunday. Put him on kickoff & let him go knock a dome off someone's shoulders.

ILB Josh McNary: I want him out there in a base 3-4 next to Freeman. I'll take him over Pat Angerer

WR Da'Rick Rogers: Want him starting over that bum DHB

S Corey Lynch: Insurance policy

HB/RS Chris Rainey: KR & PR. I don't want Ty Hilton doing any returns. And Chris Rainey will be an option at RB now too if they wanna rotate him into our "RB by committee" thingy we have going on here

I am not sure many saw that Joe Reitz was at RT during the winning drive....I am telling everyone once again...get him on the left with Castanzo and either move Thornton to RG or Link (If Healthy)  Reitz made a huge difference.

 

McNary has game Colts Fans...I was thrilled when we signed him.

 

Lynch in a pinch....Love the rap/rhyme Lolly....Maybe Lincoln Park instead of Nelly :funny: ...Heck....just turn on the mandatory Metallica and forget it :)

I agree completely with your thoughts about the o-line. Not sure why Reitz hasn't been tried out on the line more this year.

Agree with most but can Nixon play G/C? Also 'I" would put Rogers ahead of Brazill on the dc.

T Xavier Nixon - Backup

 

OLB/DE Daniel Adongo - Healthy Scratch. At least a couple games

 

ILB Josh McNary - spot starter, rotation

 

WR Da'Rick Rogers - Rotation / situational player.  Hopefully he spells DHB and not Brazill at this juncture.

 

S Corey Lynch - An ST dynamo alongside Sergio Brown.  A situational DB  (Dime package?)

 

HB/RS Chris Rainey - backup making a bid for some of TRich's carries

 

Also, should Nixon get a crack at the starting line since most of our lineman can't handle playing in the NFL.  Also, should Adongo be activated this week and get in on ST and situational pass rushing?   No, and No.

    • This Pacers team is very exciting, they play team ball, have beautiful ball movement, and good athletes that can shoot the 3. Haliburton is young and so are others on the team, so they are going to make mistakes. They made 2 crucial one's the other night that cost them the game. They deserve to be in the Final 4, once you watch them play. You come away with, that is a damn good team.
    • It is no doubt the hardest position in sports. With me regarding QB's, it depends on what team they play for, and it depends on how likeable I see them as a personality.    For example: I will never root for a QB to do well/succeed if they play for Houston, Jacksonville, or Tennessee. Can't do it, they are in our division. Also, I will never root for a QB to do well/succeed if they play for Pittsburgh or New England either. Too much bad blood over the years with me with those teams. I can't stand either team. Attitude wise - 3 QB's I never liked were Ryan Leaf, Colin Kaepernick, and I am with you on Jay Cutler. Cutler was an odd ball that didn't seem to want to master the position but had all the talent in the world. Leaf was a jerkbutt, and I have my reasons for not liking Kaep which I won't get into in here. 
    • First Pacers game I have watched from beginning to end in at least 10 years.  I felt like they were exciting to watch.  They do get sloppy sometimes.   They move the ball well, lots of passing.   Boy they really let this one slip away.  As the coach defend against the inbound for a 3 pt shot and immediately foul.  Still hard to pull off, but you can't let them have that 3 pointer.   I still struggle to watch the NBA.  Traveling,  carrying,  pushing and shoving,  phantom foul calls.  Just weird to me.
    • She is doing just fine, through 5 games she is averaging 17 Points, 5 Assists, and 4 Rebounds and still hitting the 3 well. Problem is the Fever have a bad team right now. They will get another high draft pick next year which should help.    They could easily be 2-3, they have lost 2 games by 2 points. I am following it some 
    • I don't fear having a young guy back there as long as he can play and he is on par athletically and intelligent. The system is made to play young guys early.
