The total yard volume stat is particularly meaningless. KR is meaningless. Nixon is still the best of them. It's such an irrelevant position with such a limited dataset what else are you going to determine an All- Pro by? Who should be the all-pro KR of not Nixon and why?

deltarich87 Posted January 11 Share Posted January 11 Yeah if we're being honest, I can't recall a single impactful return from Nixon all season long. For a good stretch, his returns were actually costing them yards, but like the rest of the team, he's been better during the tail end of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is my current kickoff strategy if I took over that unit today given the dumb rules. 1) Assume we receive 4-6 kickoffs. 2) Game plan is to target the opponent's offensive defensive starters with forceful blocks, hopefully making them a little sore and a little slow when they return to their main unit. Ignore the ST only players. If they stop pursuing the KO, ignore them also. If the kicker runs forward, block him up too. 3) Bang those guys up 4) Fair catch every kickoff 5) Once per game (game script depending) rather than retreating your kickoff blockers, send everyone forward and try to meet them as far up the field as possible. Very likely that people make it through unblocked. 6) If the returner sees that more than 2 people got free, he calls fair catch. If 2 or fewer guys make it through... then he gives it a shot if the kickoff is short. Maximizes the chance of a 35+ field position Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah .. kind of need him pretty badly this week. He's part of the answer to slowing down CeeDee Lamb. Hope they just want to get him as healthy as possible, and nothing too serious.

He got the award because he's the only guy that really brings kicks out regularly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m fairly confident in our offense at least. I think Dallas at home is a very, very good team. What we have going for us, is it that we tend to score more on the road than we do at home. I'd be more confident if I didn't know that JRJ and Myers will be trying to block up Parsons. But in the end, doesn't much matter to me. I got my questions answered for the year. No pressure when I watch the game, zero expectations, just entertainment. Hopefully we play as loose and free as I intend on being as I watch the the game. Not sure what to snack on, though. Maybe buffalo walleye chunks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we do get crushed I won’t mind in terms of fandom ( I bet GB plus 7) , in my eyes this year couldn’t have realistically gone better in total. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
