N4L Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Everyone talked about how bad our first team run blocking was last week.. hopefully Garnett can help in that regard. I'm still holding out hope that he will be serviceable Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldman9er Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Well, I'm with ya, @N4L. Long-shot or not, I'm tired of all the negative thinking in the guise of being realistic. Bring the FAN back to FANatic, mate! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm still holding out hope that he will be serviceable he might not be bad, but being injury prone is worse than being bad. I hope he gets the julian taylor treatment one game and plays 40 snaps this preseason just to see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No risk of injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 So looks like Witherspoon fared fairly well against Hopkins today? Good to hear. I hate that Ward and Hopkins got into that fight yesterday as it would have been good for Witherspoon to get two consecutive days of going up against a top 3 WR in the game.

49erurtaza Posted August 17, 2018 Author Share Posted August 17, 2018 From watching Kyle's post practice conference he says we will see Jimmy play a little more but not dramatically more then last game. So I'm going to guess another series or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Warner got to the HOF on a wobbly long ball. Besides, most of his big passes have had a decent spiral to it. Don't trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well hopefully we see a lot of that matchup on Saturday. Spoon can match Hopkins length, which is saying something. Hopefully he shadows Hopkins while they both are on the field. I'd love to see him be physical and try to get PDs Playing Houston just reminds me of the 'reggie bush bowl' when both of us were essentially expansion teams. Felt like most years we were playing the draft pick game with them, even though we didn't play them every year. Recently it's been Cleveland. Its too bad we haven't played the browns in a while because that would have been comedy. Should be a low scoring game, no? Both teams defenses have intimate knowledge of the other teams offense at this point. Our OL needs to show me something on Saturday.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go watch the sports science episode with Drew Brees. They say the most accurate flight of a football actually has a little wobble to it. That did look a tad bit wobbly, but a 'perfect' spiral doesn't necessarily mean it's a 'perfect' pass. It dropped right into the bread basket in a place only the wr had a chance to touch it, I'll take that everyday and twice on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The wobble probably prevents any low pressure zone to form on either side of the ball, making it go straighter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
