I've seen some of you compare Leonard to AP and Bo.. But everytime i watch his videos he reminds me of Stephen Davis more than anybodu else..

 

Same body type and upright running style, same cutting ability and breakaway speed.. I think Fournette looks for more contact than Stephen did thoe..

We'll see if he's better than Davis or not. Davis was good because he had a knack for following blockers, finding the hole and the end zone. He was powerful but don't think that was his defining attribute.

Fornette is much more talented than Davis.  Adrian Peterson is more like it even if AD is shifter and Fornette is bigger more powerful.    Now, just wondering if Fornette will be hurt like AD has been much of the time.

He's a RB. It's not a question of "will he get hurt?" 

It's a question of when. Those will be good days, when fans start calling him injury prone.

Peterson was remarkably durable prior to tearing his ACL in 2014. Prior to that he'd only missed 9 games in his entire career.

because were fans and its a projection and its fun to see who reminds us of who and its the offseason and there's little else to do as diehard fans and some like metorphors and parallelism and some don't care about the first responder who says something in contrast just to get pie.

Fournette is a freight train looking to punish anyone in his way, but he also doesn't get caught from behind in the open field much.  He is a perfect fit for the clock grinding power ball we want to play.  He keeps our offense on the field and our defense off the field.  That makes both better.  He is going to be a star.

      Can we get to 9-8?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.

      Eight of Bryce Young's nine wins have come off game-winning drives

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand.

      Trade Chuba?

      By Mike2.0 · Posted

      Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
