Gosh Williams just got LEVELED

 

[Vol423]

Toot penalty just wiped out an interception

He’s still just as bad in coverage as he was in college.

Gosh Williams just got LEVELED

Yes, then Texan player over on Bears bench punching players and no flag to be found.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

Well did you find both of them?

 

[HoleInTheRoof]

While I really like Josh Pate, is it me or does he always seem to have a middle of the road take on every subject? So as to not upset anyone maybe. Can’t be critical of this coach or this player because he may want to have access to them later, etc.

When you release Tannehill, and trade Willis(who has more wins than Levis) what else do you say? And you check the draft board for next year and the top 3 options are Sanders, Beck & Ewers. Woof

Willis is a backup in this league, not much more. Tannehill didn't have much left, and behind this o line he'd struggle too.

With that said I'm out on Levis, he ain't the guy. Best bet might be to tank it a couple of years and stack picks similar to what Houston did...... You have to be smart about it though.

I think you should give her the monkey.

Is that allowed on this site?

Not the... monkey!

There were about 6 gigantic humans between the refs and him. It was pretty obvious they had no line of sight into the ring of giants surrounding him.

Finally got time to think about the game last night, and basically everything thus far:

• Crowd energy was insane
• Felt like a top SEC matchup
• The Stroke >>>>>> Friends in Low Places
• We were a hot knife through butter
• Vanilla play calling on both sides
• This is the best setup for a run we’ve ever had
• Nico: learn how to slide
• Mike Matthews. Remember that name.
• The offense can be way better
• The defense is 2002 good…or better
• We can defend the slant

Glad we got to go. Last minute decision when other stuff got moved around.

Big regrets on that Mccaffery trade in dynasty @franklinpence @JT3 @volinexile17

Injuries have been crazy so far this season.

You’re right on Nico, get that slide down, young man.

When Caleb figures it out this could be a good team. The defense is top notch in first 2 games of season.

 

[rjd970]

What would be the weakest part of our offense in your opinion? Not that any part is really that weak, but in comparison to the whole?

Is it QB, just because there is still growth to be had? Is the situation really that good?

I’ve said on this forum that I believed in Levis. That the coaches rave about him in practice and the players really like him……but only games count.

I’m out on him. I’ll continue to root for him and hope he does a 180……

Now…..I agree that CBC can’t throw him under the bus, but sidestepping the question wouldn’t have been a terrible thing either.

Beck or Ewers are both smarter than Levis……
They might not have the athleticism and arm, but they ain’t making those kind of decisions on the field.

I’m fine with getting experience, learning the system, bad throws, etc…….but NOT the decisions he’s making consistently.

I'd not seen the play earlier and was astounded when I did see it. It's bizarre that he basically did the same thing AGAIN this week. He learned...

He's as professional as it gets and doesn't rely on hottakes or soundbites. No sensationalism. When there's a major issue or news item he will be critical but he doesn't go out of his way to be.

He doesn't stand to benefit making enemies either. Just be professional.

Watch this from about 1:05:00 to 1:09:30… if you’re really pressed for time, you can start at 1:08:15 and get the picture

Hopefully OL are just figuring things out and Swift really isn’t this meh.

He probably deserves another 4 games before we judge him, he’s not started a full season and he’s on a new coach already.

But man. Such a knucklehead. And Callahan is already so pissed at him, lol.

 

[jave36]

OK new question, Williams Levis or Richardson is the worst? I thought it was clearly Richardson, but Williams is really trying to compete.

It's Williams 2nd game in NFL. Not many Rookie QB's do well in inaugural season, I watched plenty that wound up being HOF players and have crappy rookie year.


Richardson is my choice.

I think the left side of the OL. And I know it sounds weird, but maybe the WRs. Just because they’re unproven. Nico is a cheat code.

To me, it’s Nico’s awareness and speed of reads. He missed a wide open Bru on the first or second drive. Tried to force a couple passes that woulda been picked off by better DB’s. Didn’t matter, but it could in a big game. His skill level is sky high, but he still hasn’t put it all together yet. He makes up for it by insane accuracy on long throws.

He's not Hendo ‘22 yet. It’s coming tho. When it does, we’re gonna be unstoppable.
