If that’s the case then we wasted a pick on Etienne. Personally, I’d like 700, 600, and 400 yards from three guys because everyone will be fresh in February. 

How so? Dowdle is on a one year deal. If we get great production cheaply while Etienne gets to learn and develop so he steps in seamlessly next year, I'd say that's a win for everyone.

I don't think so. we signed Dowdle to a 1 year contract and know we are not going to pay 2 RBs big contracts. Brooks could end up great or he could do nothing. Etienne was a 2026 and beyond move, we have Chuba, Etienne, and either Brooks or another cheap RB.

If Brooks ends up not playing another down for us, does he replace the Eric Shelton?

Yeah, "Thunder and Lightning" were the duo for the Titans. White and Johnson maybe? 

yeah, lendale white and chris johnson (4.24). they had that name cornered before we williams and stewart could take it. so they went with double trouble. i think what the titans had going on with those two fit thunder and lightning better...that year anyways.

then lendale stopped drinking tequila, lost weight, and fizzled out.

If Bryce goes below 4 TDs passing/game he has failed. No exceptions…

FWIW I dont think any QB has ever averaged 4 TD passes per game for an entire season.  Not saying Bryce doesn't have to prove a lot this year but we have to have human level expectations.

What sport are you watching?

Manning's record season of 55 tds in 2013 was less than 3.5 tds a game.

I’m expecting no less than 6 per game with a rushing TD every other game

I think the first time I heard that was Bettis and Brooks at ND. Then, pretty sure White and Reggie Bush used it at USC. Of course that's college not pros.

      Rico Dowdle is an absolute dawg

      By DeAngelo Beason · Posted

      Aggressive runner, hits the hole fast, and runs angry.  Just a few yards shy of the single game record for the team.  Absolutely phenomenal performance.  If the gameplan hadn't become weirdly pass heavy for the 3rd and first half of the 4th quarters he might have been flirting with 300.

      Why is Canalas so pass happy?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      I felt that way before the season started, but I'm sorry, he's already proven he isn't that guy, I don't need to learn anything more about him. He threw the ball 30 times today and could only throw for 198 yards, which was his 2nd best yardage game this year, he's just not the guy. Which means this season has already moved onto the 2nd most important thing going into this season after evaluating Bryce, and that's developing our best young players. You don't do that by only throwing 8 of your 30 passes to your best player who is still only a rookie.  Pepper him with targets and help develop him so he's ready to take a huge leap next year when we get a real HC and QB to get him the ball.

      Any well functioning team benches Bryce

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Every win comes from a non-sustainable source.  As CRA mentioned, Penix absolutely imploding against ATL, and then today, defense finally clicked and looked the best they’ve looked in a long time (and still have up 24 points lol) and Rico ran for 200+ yards.  We’re not going to get that every week, especially against good teams, which neither Miami or ATL are.  Both MIA and ATL are bad teams and Bryce still couldn’t get it together.  The defense (and team) had to overcome 14 points because of his turnovers again.  That was not even an average QB performance.  We are winning in spite of him.
