mike goodson has 765 kick return yards so far in 2010

Recommended Posts

playing in limited rotation during the first half of the season, with only a few games as a starter under his belt, goodson has notched 344 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, 265 yards receiving (for an 8.0 ypc average) and - this caught my eye - 765 yards on kick returns.

1374 all-purpose yards as a part-time starter... and the season is four games from over (and he'll probably start in all of them.)

we have a serious baller on our hands.

Didn't mean to pie you Woody. Meant to quote.

I honestly have no clue who the FO keeps. Goodson and Sutton are locks. I think there's a good chance Williams resigns. From their it wouldn't surprise me to see either Willaims or Stew get traded and it wouldn't surprise me to see both stay here for another year.

Personally, if I were the new coach I would groom Goodson because the kid looks prime, get Sutton in the mix as well as he has also shown a lot of promise especially in the power run and screen game although he hasn't seen much action this year since he's basically bench warming the backup FB spot in case Fiametta goes down. I would then try and resign Williams, keep Stewart, and let them all decide who stays and who goes. Any of them, even Sutton, would serve as decent trade bait later on. Trade down some and draft with the main goal of strengthening both the defense and offensive the lines the next draft.

It's kind of sad to see Fox go, because he refuses to adapt this team('s playbook) to suit our strengths. It's getting better, but the beginning of the season was horrible. We all know he was never good at adjustments :). Bulk up the D, strengthen the OL, use a lot more PA/screens/rollouts and try to get your RBs the ball in open space where they can make plays. Think Westbrook in his prime Philly days.

I like Goodson, but I wasn't very thrilled to see him returning punts. Many of you may be hoping we lose every game till the end of the season (God, dare I mention Luck's name again), but personally I hope to see our team win, and to see our only other viable RB besides JStew running back punts and getting off the ground slowly did not leave a good feeling.

    • I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that. 
    • I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something. 
    • But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
