Drained Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) On 4/10/2020 at 4:22 PM, Pastor Dillon said: I believe Watson is so great he can carry poor coaching, especially if he doesn’t have to run for his life Yep! I think Watson will actually have his best year yet if injuries don't go against him, he has his best games when Fuller is in cause BoB creates the scheme to benefit the speedsters, now he has two of them catching balls and Cooks is probably faster (though 40-yard wise they're roughly the same.) The only issue is Hopkins cause he was the reliable one you could throw the ball to and it was always getting caught. Now you have to rely on Stills for that. Yikes.

I think cobbs is gonna be our reliable 10 yard guy this season. I expect a ton of screens to our two RBs and our speedy WRs, which is scary because when has BOB ever called a screen play that actually worked. my hope is that this season 85% of our first down plays aren’t runs up the middle.

We have 4 TEs, 3 speedy WRs, 2 pass catching RBs who aren’t built to run downhill. it’s amazing that we are probably gonna still be a run first team 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eh...I would call it "unproven" more than the worst. Darren Fells was a TD machine and led TEs in TDs, and Kahale Warring is still an unknown. I know there's gotta be some team out there with a worse unit. Seattle? Pittsburgh? It's a small debate at most. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tab Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 i would love having brandin cooks or david johnson on the team knowing we still have hopkins, but the trade absolutely sours everything 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pastor Dillon Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 We seem determined to trade or sign every injury riddled or under performing player we can. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson, Cooks and Randall Cobb WITH Hopkins? I'd be really excited about what the season could look like with an offense like this. But, Hopkins was the centerpiece. No Hop, no go.

He'll trade more high draft picks for someone that was good 4 years ago, like a 2nd and 3rd for Jimmy Graham. That feels like a BOB trade. Schedule the indignant press conference for the week after so BOB can tell fans we're stupid while Cal sits meekly behind him hoping BOB doesn't fire him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted April 15, 2020 Author Share Posted April 15, 2020 I'm going to laugh hard as hell if O'Brien is here around this time next year and he tries to trade Cooks only to get a 5th or 6th for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's the type that BoB hates - in that he has an opinion and will question things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
