players who could become playmakers


OLD FAN MAN

Recommended Posts

As for playmakers,...yes T.Y. MG. That's just obvious.

Rogers is going to make the team. (like to see him keep his feet under him better tho)

I still like Mcnary also, and Edwin Jackson over Morrison. I know i'm going to take heat on this, but right now, I think even though Morrison has the effort, I just don't think he's able to go sideline to sideline fast enough to make big stops BEFORE the player gets positive yards.

Toddman seems like a great FA signing.

Green is getting better.

Josh Ferguson seemed to do much better this week.

If Okine can get *smoother* at his hips, he could turn out to be a darn fine OLB,

Dorsett impressed me today.

Clark.  When he's in someone makes a great play.  Just not for our team.  
Yeah, he may have long arms...but he's like a practice dummy out there..they bull rush him right out of the way with seemingly little effort.

I agree, I really hope Joe Haeg isn't hurt bad, he is way better than Clark. Haeg is a keeper, can't believe Clark was drafted ahead of Haeg just because his arms are longer. It doesn't matter if you have long arms if you are just going to bear hug the defender every snap. Another huge disappointment last night was White, wow. ... boy did he get abused!

During the draft, people said Clark was a project and Haeg could pretty much step right in.  This comes as no surprise, to me, that Haeg is better right now.

O yeah, I know, it just baffles me sometimes when one player is selected ahead of another player that IMO could start for most teams when the player drafted much higher needs a couple years to develop.

    • Maybe.   Maybe you’re right.      But as of right now Gardner Minshew is a starter, so is San Darnold in Minnesota.  Desmond Ridder started for most of the last two seasons in Atlanta.  And Geno Smith, a nobody for most of his career,  has been the starter for Seattle for the last 3-4 years.    My point is Fields needs an opportunity.  And if he doesn’t get it this year he’s a free agent next year and may get an opportunity with a new team.     Im always patient with QBs.  I always root for QBs to succeed.   Even if it’s later in a career the way it did with Randall Cunningham about 25-30 years ago.   (I think the only QB I never pulled for is Jay Cutler.)   So you might be right.  But we don’t know enough about AR right now to know.  Even Ballard said in Jan/Feb that AR still has to prove himself and no one should crown him just yet.   I’m in that camp.  
    • All persons entering professional sports should make selecting an agent the highest order on their list. Playing the games is the sport side of the profession belonging to the profession is the business side of it.
    • He should have good protection this coming season.
    • Im not sure I follow your meaning….   But….   If AR leads the Colts to 4-13 that’s a bad, bad sign.   The rules have changed dramatically in the last 25 years to benefit the offense.   If AR struggles to 4-13 that says something is seriously wrong.   I think it’s extremely unlikely this will happen.   Plus he’s surrounded by a talented roster and a very good coaching staff.   My prediction is for 9-8.     But I think this is going to happen at least once, maybe more:   Colts down by 4 late in the game. and AR is driving the team.  They must get a TD.   And AR will throw an interception.  He won’t see the safety or a linebacker and that will end the game.   And our community will have a melt-down.     I’ve been banging this drum since AR was lost for the season.  He’s basically still a rookie and badly in need of experience.  He’s going to learn on the NFL level.  There are going to be growing pains.   There are no short cuts.   I love Anthony Richardson.  Great kid.  But I encourage patience.     Im sorry if I didn’t answer your question.  
    • Agreed, but I do like the attitude.
