Rhule Postgame

8. Teddy Bridgewater is the least physical QB I’ve seen. I mean no disrespect by that but if he is touched he goes down and watching him run, Lord have mercy...and this was before the cheap shot   He can win with a perfect oline and CMC and a great defense. Two of those are a ways away. He may not survive his three year contract physically

 

I cringe every time Teddy takes off to run. It's so unnerving to watch.

He didn't run until a couple weeks ago when he ran about 15 yards and got a first down. His reaction was like he just remembered how to run after the injury. Since then he has tried to run on 3rd and longs and failed miserably; taken sacks at inopportune times, taking the team out of FG position, and tried to outrun much faster defenders when no one was open.

Like I said we have to temper our expectations this season. It's rebuilding and setting up a culture. We will still be picking top 10 no matter what we do and the Falcons had way more talent on the field. So does everyone else in the league that faces us.

Keep in mind this was also this coaching staff's first Thursday night game so I'm sure the shortened week did not help at all.

TE role...Thomas is a bust

Hey Mr Football can a 5th rounder really be a bust?

Fourth round, but your point still stands!

[Mr. Scot]

I think the general read on Thomas, regardless of what round he was drafted in, is that he's not a starting level tight end in the pros.

Aikman talked a lot about him last night, characterizing him as an underachiever.

Yeah in my scenario, I wasn't using the TE for anything but blocking. Thomas would not get separation fast enough, but McCaffery would have that was my point. I would have Manhertz in there for blocking purposes. I'm really saying in the future, that I think we could have Davis and McCaffery in 21 personnel and shift to 11 and play with defenses a little bit, or vice versa. No one could cover McCaffery so you could put tremendous pressure on the linebackers especially when they crowd the line, like ATL did last night.
