I believe he’s Explosive but Josh Allen explosive not Jalen Hurts or better. That’s what I see and got no Vertical or broad jumps to measure it 

Josh Allen has great explosiveness for a QB. Lance is bigger that Hurts with a stronger arm. He might not be as fast, but he has the ability to be a much better QB.

I don't trust these speed/clocks that pop up on the TV at all that are now used to make arguments.  They just don't pass the eye test.    

Take Lance's.  You watch that run they cite and there are kids playing FCS football right on his heels that entire run.   

Daniel Jones? You telling me Lamar never got up to a speed faster than him this season? I just don't buy it. 

But he wasn't clocked using a speed clock. He was clocked using GPS, and say what you want, I've read they're accurate as far as measuring top velocity.

I understand that.  I see it used all the time of late.  

All I am saying is that it doesn't pass the eye test.  I just question if that tech is really as accurate as advertised at this stage.  You got a white linebacker from James Madison on his heels the entire run.  And I am suppose to believe that is Lance is running faster than Lamar pulling away from NFL players? 

I mean it could be true.  The eye test of part of that statement just doesn't jive.  Maybe James Madison is full of track kids.  Who knows.

I think the biggest challenge for Lance will be getting used to the difference between ‘NFL open’ versus ‘NDSU open’.

All you have to do is turn on a highlight reel and you hear the announcer repeatedly say “wide open”. 

This is what some were saying about Tua last season. Tua was so used to his guys having 5-10 yards of separation in college. 

At the end of the day, all 3 guys come with question marks but I trust Rhule and co. to make the right decision.

      Are the Panthers a "Trap Game" for the Hawks?

      By MHS831 · Posted

      The Seahawks won an emotional, divisional, overtime rivalry game vs the Rams on a Thursday night (Dec 18).  That gives them 10 days to prepare for the Panthers, but the Christmas holiday fell a week later--I bet they were afforded an extra day for travel-many coming back east.  Following the Panthers, Seattle plays at San Francisco for the division title (in all probability).   The Rams finish the season with games against the Falcons and Cardinals, two likely wins, pushing them to 13-4.  The Niners finish the season with home games against the Bears and Seahawks. Seattle finishes the season with the Panthers on the road and SF in California.   It is easy to see how preparing for the Panthers, during the holiday break and with the Niners waiting for them in SF a week later for (what could be) the NFC West title and #1 Seed in the NFC, could create the perfect trap game scenario.  The Panthers at home are 5-2.   In the past 2 weeks, the Seahawks struggled to beat the Phillip Rivers Colts in Seattle and then pulled off a miraculous, emotional victory at home vs. the Rams.  I am not convinced that they are as good as advertised. Seattle is a TD favorite in Charlotte.  I feel that Carolina by 3 may be more accurate.  While I am still not confident in this team's consistency and it never seems to dominate, it sure feels like a trap game for Seattle to me.  How could they NOT be thinking of San Francisco right now?  They are not used to being in this position (current players) and it is human nature.  Carolina 27, Seattle 24.

      Robert Hunt Practice Window Activated

      By MHS831 · Posted

      It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.

      Chad ‘Ochstradamus’ Johnson and Shannon Sharpe on Panthers

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.
