really hoping he is a difference maker.  If so, our last draft is probably one of the best we ever had.  With him and Chuba, we could have one of the best RB rooms in the league.

Highlights from Texas

 

good article on how many people are pulling for him

Putting him behind our OL is going to give him the chance to make an impact immediately.

Eh....I would largely temper the expectations for 2024. Hopefully at some point he shows flashes but he is coming off an extended layoff and a serious injury. It takes time to usually trust the knee for most guys. Be patient.

I say this as a guy that remains flabbergasted by the pick. Let's not get crazy this season if he doesn't look amazing.

Now 2025 however......

I suspect with it being his first game back that it will be lackluster and they will not put too much on his plate.  Glad he is healthy but  the only thing I expect is a complete overreaction from fans and media on how good or how pedestrian he looks in his first outing.

That said, I am wrong on things most of the time, so who knows.

    • To me, this seems like they feel they aren't going to be competitive. I can't help but go back to Bryce. Good guy, but he doesn't inspire people to give it their all. He isn't a "leader" that people look to. There is no Smith, Delhomme, Kuechly, Cam, etc. coming in that door.  It has to be Bryce, but biologically speaking, how often is the shortest man in the room going to command the kind of respect that will drive people? It just isn't. That isn't how we are wired. That isn't how any living animal on Earth today is wired.  I just follow the science guys. 
    • Vick's issue with Reid was that he couldn't take a hit, and he wouldn't go down. Otherwise he was pretty good much of the time.  Mahomes has a system that works. Mahomes doesn't become Mahomes elsewhere because not everyone can extract 125% of the ability of a specific player like Reid can. Kevin O'Connell is beginning to look like he has that ability as well but I'll need to see how he does with his Redshirt Freshman.  I also wonder how much of their playoff issue last year was related to the offense as a whole and not just Darnold. Fans don't really dive into the "why" things happen, they just see the what and complain about it.
