Jake Query who covers the colts was just on WFNZ to talk about Reich.

 

- Indy fans happy to see him get another opportunity in a better situation.

- Reich is a Players coach.  Players loved him.

- was good year 1 then year 2 was caught off guard by Lucks retirement in preseason.

- Rivers was brought in the next season because Reich had coached him in San Diego.

-Rivers retired so they scrambled and Reich vouched to trade for Wentz who he had success with.

 

- Wentz refused to get vaccinated which was a controversy.  Wentz ended up getting covid late that year and missed some practice.

-at the end of the Season, Irsay told Reich he never wanted to see Wentz again.  They then went onto trade for Ryan.  
 

- few games into this season.  Irsay told Reich that he was to bench Ryan for Elinger.  Then eventually fired Reich.  Hired Saturday which they then went back to Ryan.

-mentioned OL injuries this year early.  And no one outside of Pittman weapons wise.

Good stuff here. Bulletpoints!

I'd be worried about her size, though to be fair she is at least a little bit bigger than Bryce Young 😐

Looked like more of a traditional North/South runner, as well. Didn't see much elite agility. 

Would like to see more tape of her in the passing game. Could be a 3rd down back.

Give her a break she's a rookie! I think fans expect too much out of rookies these days.

They'll also need to ensure she takes enough naps.

(I could probably help with that; these days I take plenty) 😕

She would have to bulk up and hit the weight room. I fear that would take away from her speed and agility. 

Maybe, but look how McCaffrey bulked up from his Stanford days to the pros and didn't lose a step.  High protein diet and anabolic steroids will get her there.

    • Nothing wrong with starting to look for bodies early. It's a long injury filled season. I doubt we get through unscathed. 
    • We're in alignment regarding Thielen not being a game changer/breaker for the Panthers. Getting the ball into hands of playmakers like TMac and XL is going to open up things more than it is getting it to Thielen underneath (or letting him go after 50/50 balls 20yds downfield in his mid-30s). However, in a room where the other guys are two second year guys and two rookies, having a reliable vet that they can learn from is just as important as it is for the QB to have as a reliable third option. I can see that being worth $8.5M (just 3%) of the $279.2M cap... especially when looking at what's left out there: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/_/position/wr However, the idea that the team is forcing production to Thielen and leading to losses isn't supported by the data. Targets, not receiving yards, are how you can tell if a player is being "force fed." In the two games mentioned, let's look at the other players available... vs. TB 10 targets - Adam Thielen 9 targets - David Moore 8 targets - Tommy Tremble, Xavier Legette 3 targets - Jonathon Brooks 1 target - Dan Chisena, Feleipe Franks, Stephen Sullivan vs. PHI 11 targets - Adam Thielen 8 targets - Xavier Legette 5 targets - Chuba Hubbard, David Moore 2 targets - Tommy Tremble 1 target - Ja'Tavion Sanders, Deven Thompkins There isn't exactly a bounty of other names to throw the ball to. In those games, AT was one of the top 2 WRs. Diontae had been gone by that point.   So... yea. Agreed that Thielen isn't exactly carrying the team in his mid-30s, but it's undeniable that he was the most reliable target last season that still has quite a bit of value this season. Whether or not that value is reflected in a manner folks think on the contract is going to come down to personal taste. However, the idea that the team was forcing production to AT and that was the reason behind some losses couldn't be further from the truth.
    • I would also add that I think it's more than money.  AT has looked absolutely miserable out there at times, and there was a lot of speculation he would demand to be traded.  Personally, I thought he was a lock to be moved last year.  Maybe his hamstring is the only thing that prevents that from happening. The fact that he's not only willing to come back and play, but excited about it, really bodes well for Bryce.  AT is a veteran and he knows the game.  If he didn't have confidence in Bryce, I guarantee you he wouldn't be in a Panther uniform this year.  I'll take that as a positive.
