Im sure we will go back to him again in the next game. He really has to toughen up mentally. I am not his supporter or anything but I do believe in not giving up on guys who are hard workers and he is a hard worker. 

 

I have no idea why he is struggling so badly.

Trent needs to never touch the ball and stay in his street clothes....He always finds a way to # up the game and kill any movement of the ball. We need to make him a WR or cut our losses with him. This fumbled changed the game.

 

Thats a bit harsh. Luck threw 3 INTs and the one right after the halftime was really hard to swallow but we overcame all that. Everyone made mistakes in the game. I have no idea what our secondary was doing today out there.

Its week in and week out performance....I have noticed the performance of our offense when browns in there vs trent. I think Trents good at catching screens and wheel routes but he just cant run the ball.'

 

Dont get me wrong, I believe in this team as much as anyone...but hes been here over 10 weeks and hasnt improved one bit. Every week i hope for that 100yrd avg over 4 yards game.

So many people just jump all over the guy for having a tough season.  Donald Brown has had so

many rough seasons as a Colt but this year put it all together.  How many are eating crow on him now?

How many will be eating crow if Trent turns out to be a really good runner next season.

 

Just calm down everyone.  Trent was picked up to run behind a OL that is not even fully here right now - some

of them are on IR at the moment.  Give him a full season before you pass judgement on his career.  Geez...

He's had 2 fumbles in almost 200 touches.  Relax.  Yeah it was untimely, but it's not like all hope is lost.

Agreed. Donald Brown followed up with his first ever NFL fumble as well, but it came packaged with a happy ending.

 

Let's all not forget that DB was a "wasted" first round pick for quite some time. Hopefully Trent will get a spark next year.

Wow...you guys are really over reacting.  Chill-out, give the guys a full training camp and a better run blocking line.  He is not the same type of runner as Donald Brown...Trent is a power-back, that's why they traded for him.  Once we get a better o-line and he gets a full training camp, he will be ok.  Just relax.

SMH....2nd fumble of the season. Maybe we should just release him tonight. This fumble and 3 INTs changed the game BUT we won. Stop and think before you post

      Potential/Average/Concern

      By smittywerb · Posted

      I think that’s due to the training wheels being put on AR vs Minshew who’s a vet and familiar with Shane.   i don’t have the exact frame of time, but it definitely was a 2-4 week stretch where the tight ends had more yards than our receiving room combined.  So if minshew wasn’t utilizing them as much and they still were at one point out-producing our receiving group, then that should show others how desperately this offense needed some explosion.    and luckily, we’ll be adding AR back into the mix, a full offseason JT, and an AD with a chip on his shoulder.

      I think as fans of this team we’ve been spoiled.  Also a little bit of high expectations.  With the amount of money that has been put into the line, we expect them to get pancakes every play, and that’s not possible.  Also, with Nelson getting paid what he’s paid, we expect him to be the next coming of Larry Allen, which is a tall order.  Now I do agree, nelson atp is overpaid, but not egregiously.  But that’s the nature of the business and I wouldn’t want another guard.     we really do have a good line with some solid depth.  And hopefully with a qb that will keep defenses on honest with his arm, legs, and threat of the RPO…this line can shine even more.

      Wasn't Shaw the HC when they often ran 2/3 TE formations with Luck as the QB?

      I would like to see more than a handful  regular participants but just the local forum prognosticators is nice and cozy too.   I remember as a kid I often entered a National Beat the Experts college football contest and won a couple T Shirts and once a $100 cash prize.  I knew my college football in those days and watched every pro, college, and Bowl games I could.. Sometimes had multiple tv's going for bowl games that were broadcast at the same time.
