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.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
