chad72 Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Wow, what the heck are we going to do with DeAndre Hopkins then? I guess a Belichick like approach, Melvin and Butler rotated to him, with a lot of jamming at the line of scrimmage. Savage won't get out of the pocket, so you can blitz him more. Fuller needs a QB with an arm worth something, can be streaky but not as consistent a home run hitter like with Watson, so he can be handled with Quincy Wilson or Hairston, IMO, as long as you have to play D only within the first 10-15 yards of guarding him. Once you give too much time to any QB without any pass rush, it would be harder to keep up with Hopkins and Fuller as the field gets extended.

I am sure both his agent and Savage are nervous, now that they know Watson can do. That is why Savage made the pre-emptive statement "no one can replace Watson" which meant, IMO, "I am no DeShaun Watson and don't expect anything close to his production from me".

We can’t expect to win a SB every year. As hard as this year has been, we can see progress, if we look for it. If all we get this year is depth and experience well, okay. I’m hoping for a long term optimistic outlook to emerge as the pieces come together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueShoe Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 It doesn’t really matter who we suit up at his point. The 2017 Colts defense is capable of making any quarterback look great, and that is with Vontae in the lineup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
