Boston/Coleman


The Lobo

Recommended Posts

What did you guys think of them out there at the same time. I loved it. Not taking anything away from Rome bc I really like him out there. But there was something special seeing them do each other's celebration. When Boston made a big play, they both did the Future dance. The best one was when Coleman picked it off and they did Colemans flex celebration. I don't know just spit balling here, thought it was cool.

Personally, I loved it.  I'm hesitant to give big money to a safety because Gettleman seems to plug cheaper guys in there and we get the most out of them but I really like Coleman's range and ball hawking skills.  Boston looked very fast and seemed ready for a bigger role in the defense.

 Shaq played some good ball as well.  It was great seeing him play a tweener LB/safety role covering Fitz before TD got hurt. That was a new wrinkle we haven't seen much in the past.

I thought Shaq was great as well. I loved how they had him jam Wrs and play real physical.

excited for the future. Gettleman just somehow continues to make this team younger and stronger every year. Like how is that possible and how did we get so lucky getting that wizard as our gm

I *think* we actually got older this year in terms of our starting roster.  We had one of the oldest rosters in the league, but generally the ages are so close as to make that stat almost meaningless. 

But yes, with his excellent drafting and good UDFA finds, G'man is doing a good job of getting us solid young talent and keeping the bottom of the roster fresh.

This team actually has the potential to get better next year. That's not something many Super Bowl teams can say. With the readdition of Benjamin and our young players getting more experience...Boston and Shaq will get a lot more playing time... In excited about the future.

    • I don't think it was fear of the unknown because he tried to hide the extent of the injuries that made him drop. After the drop, the reports I heard were that teams knew what was wrong with his knee and it was something similar to another athlete from a few years ago (honestly don't remember if it was even a football player).  That it was basically one of those things where he should be fine for a while, there isn't a huge concern of immediate injury risk.   But what he has going on with his knee is something that is degenerative and there's little chance he'll be able to play more than 5 or so years on it before he won't be able to play anymore. So basically it was teams knowing if they draft him, he's probably going to be only a rookie contract player and even if he's great, you might not be able to get use out of him on a second contract.  Which in turn makes the drop make sense, but I'm kinda surprised some contending team didn't take him late in the 1st, hoping he'd put them over the top on a SB run but then not even have to worry about giving him a big contract in 4 years too.
    • Depends if they see the writing on the wall with their roster and contracts and decide to bite the bullet and begin a complete rebuild and roster overhaul.  I have no clue why some franchises (IE us) refuse to do this and keep half assing trying to win 8 games or so.  Do it correctly, take your lumps and build a contender.  We shall see what loomis decides.
    • Each team plays 17 games.  I do not see why they don't just have each team play one international game per year.  Neutral site game, 8 home, 8 away.
