Some love for......Chris Manhertz?

LOL! What a completely forced poo take. Manhertz had two very nice blocks in that clip. On the rest of those plays, he was either coming in late to help out of a block that was already locked up or he was just there on the field and Baldy still somehow found a way to label him as THE guy who made the play successful.

I was going to start a thread because I though people were down on Manhertz.

What's the story here?

Was pretty surprised myself to see baldy breakdown on Manhertz with glowing praise which is why I titled it the way I did.

Im guessing that most are down on him because hardly anyone myself included really pays attention to what he does. He’s a TE who doesn’t catch passes so the only time you ever really hear his name is when he does something bad like get a penalty or miss a block.

So for us as fans 95% of the time we hear his name it’s for something bad when most of the time he is actually doing something good but we never hear about it. Naturally that would cause most to have a negative opinion of him.

I’m not going to pretend like I’ve been breaking down tape to say one way or the other but if someone like Baldy Who I respect is saying really good things about him then maybe he deserves more credit than he is getting.

The giant gorge between Manhertz's blocking and Ian Thomas' blocking ability is a myth.  I payed particular attention to Thomas while Manhertz was out with concussion and he did more than admirably especially during the Jaguars game!

Yet Ian is playing the backseat. Despite being drafted to be Olsen's successor.  

Your viwe point doesn't have foundation to stand on. 

Ian Thomas will get his time, but let's not dog another player whom is out there busting his ass to have earned the bbn playtime he gets.

How am I dogging Manhertz?  Manhertz missed time and Ian Thomas played really well.  I spoke on that.  They always say that Manhertz gets the snaps because he is such an excellent blocker, but the gap between him and Thomas hasn't looked to be that big when Thomas gets to play.  Look at how many times people have sit behind other players throughout NFL history when they could be playing.  I was just pointing out that the kid can play.  I never said that Manhertz is a JAG, or that he has never been a reliable receiving threat.  Now that would be dogging.

    • Trade up for a project was dumb, he's gonna be 25 next month. By the time you're deciding on whether he's worth the 5th year option or a big contract you're already gonna be thinking about moving on soon either way.  
    • I mean this is legit AF statement....you don't spend that draft capital on a project just like you don't trade up for an injured RB either, which was done in the same draft.  That draft IMO was a necessary evil for DM to learn from his mistakes (I think he did but some may not). Also I have to mention I'm a big Coker fan and think getting him as an UDFA was obv a steal.  Coker is the better WR2 at this point as Legette and its not even debatable unfortunately.  Give him year 3 but don't expect much from him.  Continue in the offseason with adding as much talent and competition on the roster as possible including WR.  Or just trade his ass for peanuts and continue to build roster by any means.......  
    • Losing him was a huge loss. Look at how the Bears went from a 5 win team to now a 11 win team. The Lions offensive line is bad this year, secondary is bad and Campbell going for it on 4th down all the time has cost them games instead of taking the Field Goals. Goff is inconsistent as well.
