Dulac saying Fields will be QB in 2025

Jalen Hurts = Russell Wilson, but with much better OL, RB and WRs.

Their QB style is identical.

 

And 2” of extra height

2” extra inches counts even in height

 

2"? Looks more like 7" to me

 

Need to get that dude to smack the chit out of Shane Beamer.

 

SC men’s basketball absolutely sucks! 0-8 in SEC play

 

I'm not going to talk smack. Vols have lost 2 in a row and have a really tough stretch ahead. Hate losing at home, especially to the likes of those inbred KY bumpkins.

 

Lol TJ didn’t even record a stat the last two games.

 

But some fans on here want to make the excuse for Watt and blame the scheme.

 

It was very obvious he was playing injured. He knows we only lose without him, and he wanted to be there for the playoff game this year (he got injured the last regular season game of the year last year).

The scheme definitely hurt us from stopping the run. It isn't why any one player didn't have a stat, but it was definitely a bad plan that got exploited immediately.

 

If Watt was healthy enough to play, then you can't use injury as an excuse to go three straight games with no stats .

 

Idk man. As a fanbase we made nothing but excuses for Najee Harris sucking for like 75% of his starts over the course of 4 years, but our best player gets hurt and rushes back to try to help the team and we spend the whole offseason dogging him because he didn't play his best? I think its a bit lame. Like, we get it. TJ didn't have a good game. Maybe he should have sat out, idk. I'm not the team doctor, nor am I TJ, so I don't know how he felt/how hurt he was. But there were a lot of reasons for yet another playoff blowout. I don't think signaling out our best player who was playing through injury is the best use of our anger towards the loss.

 

That's a dumb comparison an RB is dependent on the OL, this isn't the first time Watt was invisible in the playoffs. I bet Najee would've been able to convert that 4th and 1 against the Bengals unlike the overrated Jaylen Warren .

 

My wife was on the phone talking to her friend about who knows what and held up her hand with her thumb and forefinger about a couple of inches apart

She said how big is this

I yelled back loud enough for her friend to hear “I’ve been telling you for years that is 13 inches”

 

The comparison is what it is. Pass rushers can be dependent on the DL eating up blockers, or helping on stunts. They can also be dependent on the secondary too because if the WR's are covered, the QB holds the ball just a touch longer and can help get there for a sack. There's no position in a team game that isn't dependent on others.

Its human nature to defend the players we like and criticize the ones we don't care as much about (this goes for coaches too). Based on our conversation history, you are a Najee fan. Which is cool, you do you. But you're willing to base his struggles as the fault of the OC, or the OL, etc.... and opt not to criticize his flaws as a player. In this instance you're zeroing in on Watt having a bad game in Baltimore. Why does he not get the same benefit of the doubt? Why is TJ Watt a "disappearing act" and Najee a "good player who's faults are because of his teammates"?.

No one is making an excuse for TJ. Everyone that watched the game could tell he didn't play like his normal self. He didn't play well. I simply pointed out an injury (and the fact that he wasn't his normal self for pretty much the entirety of the season post injury) as a possible reason to explain a noticeable dip in play/production.

 

It's not just the playoff game against Baltimore Watt had no stats in the last three games IIRC.
