Da'Rick Rogers

[Rob Lowe]

What do you guys think of lining up Da'Rick out of the backfield and giving him some carries? He was pretty prolific running the ball out of sweeps in college and always looked as if he could be Bo Jackson type RB if he wasn't so phenomenal at WR. Maybe we should give it a shot and see what happens

nah, I think we should start him at QB this week. Or maybe even head coach.

[BlueCollarColts]

I always liked him more as a D-Tackle

This guy gets it. Why stop there tho? Irsay should step down and hand the franchise over the Da'Rick.

He'll be he first simultaneous Owner/GM/HC/Player in the NFL history.

I vote we take someone's keyboard and remove every letter that spells "Da'Rick Rogers" on it.

[CanuckColt]

Rogers will continue along in his WR duties with the occasional target...if he can ever get open he will get more targets...but he always seems to have a DB glued to his butt.

[arkana04]

Da'Rick Rogers is a forum legend he could get cut next week and there will still be threads about him weekly on here.

Who do you think he is "Roy Hall" ? LOL

[Derakynn]

The real question is why isn't there a thread on that Lenz guy? Reggie's replacement right there, he even has arms, just like Reggie!

[Deathiltis]

I always liked him more when he play BW. Otherwise known as the Bench-Warmer.

[Rob Lowe]

You guys understand his ability. Check this out http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5BHOXRyDLuw&desktop_uri=%2Fwatch%3Fv%3D5BHOXRyDLuw

If Trent and Donald ain't getting it done in the slick than I don't see Why not. we need to establish the run in these conditions.

[Gavin]

On a serious note, If Im Pep I try to line up Rogers as much as possible on Talib and Hilton interchangeably in the Slot and as Z receiver also I'd use Coby in the slot, I dont think Dennard can handle TY's speed, I also think Rogers will give Talb a tough challenge since Talib likes to be physical

[caroledauthier879]

yes,i also agree,I dont think Dennard can handle TY's speed

[SteelCityColt]

In a attempt at injecting some seriousness into the topic I have wondered why they've not tried using DHB more in the fashion, despite his catching shortcomings he's a dangerous man when he has actually got the ball in his mitts. 

[achcolts]

i dont get people making fun of OP?? he did this all the time in college...

[Slick_Rick]

I like him at WR for some reason. That said, I had a dream he had a 65 yard TD catch and run. Lot's of my dreams have been football related lately. I think something's wrong with me.

[Brent71]

Good thread. There has never been a Da'rick Rogers thread before.

Wish i had Colts dreams like that too. Does that mean somethin is wrong with me?

People see Da'Rick and just become annoyed, especially when it's next to my username. But the truth is the guy is a dangerous runner. Look at Cordarrelle Patterson for the Vikings. They do the same thing with him. Tennessee began it. Guys who are dangerous with the ball in their hands and are multi talented deserve a shot. Da'Rick could be a decent RB if he weren't so perfectly suited to be a WR.

And I agree about the point with TY's speed against Dennard. Should be a great matchup.

And regarding DHB in the backfield, just no. Completely diff situation than with Da'Rick.

[Devildog]

Da'Rick Rogers is actually Rob Lowe in disguise.

I think the real Rob Lowe would be annoyed if he saw your avatar.  It is hilarious.  Still makes me cringe though.

You're right completely different, DHB has 3 times the rushing yards as Rogers in college (who btw has 120 yards, hardly prolific), and looking at the combine is also slower and weaker than DHB.

DHBs problem is his hands plain and simple. You can't be arguing for Rogers on one hand and dismiss DHB in such caviller fashion on the other.

Fair enough. DHB has just shown a consistent ability to let down which has cause a lack of faith in his abilities. Would like to see him get some sweeps and screens

[ColtsBlueFL]

Trick and gadget plays have to be tried early.  Can't bank on that stuff after halftime unless it is money in the bank as far as success rate. And they often are not.  Just put folks in the positions they have practiced to succeed at, and execute.

[backshoulderfade]

Peyton Manning wears Da'Rick Rogers pyjamas.

[Smonroe]

Horrible game.

[rockywoj]

He holds potential and I hope he can grow into the successful player his immense talent potential teases as being possible. He's definitely a WR, not a RB though.

[MB-ColtsFan]

2nd drop was a tough one.  The first drop was a bad one.

Hopefully he just experienced some nerves and comes back better next year.

 

Was pretty invisible after drop #2.  I don't remember Andrew going back to him after that?

That's what everyone said about DHB too.

[5toolplayer]

besides the couple grabs at Bengals and the jump ball vs KC he's been no better then DHB. FACT

[House]

Let's concentration on him just making catches.

[mintor]

he a rookie played few games at the end the year . say he did great better then dhb  witrch has years of exp.

[runthepost]

Da'Drop Rogers

[Le Neon]

That's what everyone said about DHB too.

He may have the opposite problem. Great natural ball skills, but will he work hard enough and be a good team mate?
