Leonard Fournette: Better than AP

I don't think he'll be there at 8, but it's kind of a no brainer we'll take him if he falls. We also need a bigger and stronger O-line to improve the running game. We get our wins against lesser teams by pushing their D-line around and running at will. The stronger the O-line, the more teams we can push around.

I think I liked him more before I saw the video. Do we think DG will bring in a FB? Do we think Shula will use a FB? If we are going to stick with the read-option, then maybe he isn't our guy.

I think the comparisons to AP are accurate. That said, go look at some recent game tape of AP in Minnesota's read-option offense. He looks like garbage because it is a horrible offensive scheme that puts the rb at a significant disadvantage. The rb has to stand there flat footed and wait for the ball while the LBs pursue. Put him behind a FB and he destroys.

I think that is exactly what we can expect out of Fournette.

      25-26 NHL Regular Season Thread

      Great article on all the Lil Canes attending their debutantes ball. Walt with a great breakdown of all the rookies, as always, and I'm a huge fan of his team coverage, he is truly a treasure, but as a fan of mixed metaphors and superfluous language which some might ignorantly refer to as a "run-on sentence" I never really understood what that mean or where to put the comma after a quote in the middle of a sentence, but holy poo Walt, this is a gem, "While there's a long road left in front of them left to determine whether or not they'll have that same success on the blue line again, the beginning stretch of the journey has been thrown a wrench, and the story on defense has been the emergence of up-and-comers forced into becoming lineup regulars." , bravo, take a bow, sir!

      When the broadcast showed the two benches side by side during the last TV timeout, it was pretty obvious the whole operation is a shitshow. If I was the owner, I would play that clip, with commentary, on the jumbotron at MSG as I fired the coach, GM, President, the whole lot. Bring in your AHL leadership team, wholesale, to finish out the season and start from scratch next year.  Can't fire all the players and fold the season. But, hopefully decapitating the zombie will light a fire under the body and burn out the cancer of the roster. (It makes sense if you don't think about it...) There are obviously issues on the roster. But, you can't have the entire coaching staff completely tuned out with 5 minutes left in a 2 goal game this early in the season. And you can't trust the people that hired them to hire the next staff. If you trust your AHL GM/Scouts, let them run the deadline firesale.   ...     Please don't let the owner read any of this. Because, this poo is hilarous!
