    Very underrated, if he could consistently catch he would be a top 10 TE

    Quite possibly, given his ability to get vertical.

    Nix is a good blocker also.

    Nix seemed pretty crucial to the ground game to me. Good to see him involved more.

    Nix and McDonald are one hell of a combo for LeVeon Bell. Dude has been a monster this season when he gets the needed touches.

    I am just hoping that as Ben gets going maybe so does Vance as far as catching the ball, but his blocking is partly making up for his stone hands so far! :thumbs_up:

    Just rewatched the blocking and man I am in love with Nix and Mcdonalds style. Jesse James is lol at blocking. Saw him get spun around. Nix and Vance are bulldozers. If Vance can continue to catch some balls it will help the offense tremendously. I'm talking about going from 18ppg to 18.5 kinda good. Yeah I said it, unstoppable. Jesse james needs to be used in the redzone more. Nix/JJ/Bell all utilized in redzone.

    Love watching Nix block. Also like watching JuJu block, he just needs to watch the holding.

    I've got a feeling McDonald will be a crucial piece of the puzzle in the second half of the season and heading into the playoffs. He has obvious athletic ability and I look forward to seeing him become a bigger contributor as the season progresses.
