Quick blurb about break out players this year, co host Eric Davis tabs Louis Murphy as one of the guys poised to have a big season individually and for the benefit of the team.

Now, they mentioned him as a slot guy, but really talked about him more as a 2 than a 3.

Anyway, good to see another good guy featured on the national media in a positive light.

Just thought I'd share.

Murphy def can find ways to get separated and be open.

I really think Murphy will move up the depth to that no.2 spot when it's all said and done. A lot of homers are riding Lafell's nuts but the man cannot get open. Lafell struggles to get separation. Love it or hate it, it's the truth. A lot, a lot of homers are going to be disappointed in Lafail this season.

In LaFell's defense he did rack up 600+ yards as a starter for only half of the season. Had he started from day one I bet he would have eclipsed 1000 on the season.

Pretty good for a guy who can't get open.

I'm exited about having 4 very legit targets in Smith, LaFell, Murphy and Olsen. Throw in the rest of the crew and it's just crazy.

I'm betting Olsen to be a 1k receiver over Lafell.

    • I think the book has been fairly written on Darnold, and by and large stays true. He can be rattled by pressure, and will lose his composure. If a team can get to him and have something go wrong in the plan, the mistakes and errors will pile up. Rams have a better offense, Seahawks sport a better defense. Should be a good 1.
    • Not a defense of him...an understanding of the problem. (something you seem to be lacking right now) 🙄 Bryce in a Canales offense is not an example of a stylistic mismatch, but I can give you one if that helps. When he was playing for the Panthers, Cam Newton sat under OC's running Coryell type offenses. Newton had a big arm and was a strong runner. He fit into that sort of attack very well. Then he goes to New England, where at the time they were running an Earhardt-Perkins system (similar to WCO In a lot of what they do but very different terminology). The Patriot offenses back then were heavily based on timing and rhythm style passing, not something that Newton was especially well suited for. So he washed out at New England, not because he had poor ability (his abilities had been on display here on a regular basis) but because he didn't fit what they wanted to do with their offense. I always go back to Jeff Garcia as one of the prime examples of this issue. Garcia in a WCO looked like a world beater. Put him in any other scheme though...yikes!  So again, Young's issues here have nothing to do with any failure to mesh with Canales. Hell, is say Canales has actually done pretty well at adapting his system to who he has rather than trying to jam square pegs into round holes. Again, it doesn't take an elite level of football knowledge to get this. It's pretty basic. But if you're not even capable of understanding what the real problem is, how are you going to know you to find the right solution? 🤔
