Ginn A Return Man?


Lilsmitty09

Recommended Posts

Rivera mentioned that we know what he can do as a return man so he wants to give some other guys a chance to showcase their skills.

 

So yes he's a starting returner and right now we are just trying to figure who his backup is going to be.

 

that's what I figured, just wasn't sure if I was missing anything. Adams looked good last week!

Random question, hadn't seen it asked anywhere...

but why hasn't Ginn been KR/PR at all in the preseason? Is he in Rivera's "dog house?" Every depth chart updated has him starting still but have yet to see anything..

B/c everyone knows what he can do at returner.....he is dang good. Letting others audition

I sincerely hope that he returns one or two in the preseason.

 

me too. i guess he's been doing it long enough to be able to jump into games without a long adjustment period but for the sake of continuity with everyone on special teams it seems like it'd be advantageous to have him returning some lives balls against real opponents.

I read somewhere (maybe Jonathan Jones said it) that Ginn was up to return a punt in the first half of the game last night but didn't get a chance...2 TD's and 3 turn overs.  It seems like they are going to let him get a few reps at some point.

all have been okay, so Ginn must be the secret weapon! He's been a dud at WR imo.

Was solid last night.

23 yarder

16 yarder

Made him the most productive WR in the first half....over Smitty.

He seems to be better with Cam than DA. They have hooked up a lot in camp. Wasnt out there game 1 with Cam

I'll say this, Game one's errors were on DA.  I think he'll do more at Returns

Were you confusing Ginn with Crabtree? He's going to be a competent back up for us and has done what he's supposed to. Him and Anderson were not on the same page but he did play well with Cam.

Nevertheless you're saying Ginn>Gettis/Lafell/edwards? One out of 3, yes. At the end of the day Pilares is irrelevant and Joe Adams is on a tight rope due to roster spots.

Just to put it out there..

Ginn may actually be our secret weapon on offense aswell, and we may not be willing to show what could be comming at this point in the preseason. Kinda like bluffing.

Same could be said for every facet of our team. We have looked very vanilla for a reason.

    • It appears that he sees things differently than the QB and OC, so Cam's advice is spot on. It isn't about number of targets, it's about quality of targets. Trust and being on the same page. BY doesn't know how to anticipate what XL is doing. And XL doesn't like where BY is placing passes. One on one film study would go a long way. More for BY than XL though. He has to adjust to XL. I really don't think XL can adjust on the fly. 
    • If the team shows improvement, then he shouldn't be in danger of losing his job - even if the record doesn't reflect. This was a very young team (with a lot of new vet starters) that overperformed last season. Somebody's doing something right. Consistency is key with so much youth. And we're potentially looking at new starters at ILB and FS. Those are positions that take time to fully understand the defense. ILB calls the front 7. Safety calls the back 4. Injuries at WR and IOL killed the offense last season. Depth needs to be upgraded. Same with Edge. I think they would have won more games if Pat Jones doesn't go down early. Be smart with the roster and draft. Trade players for assets when it's time to pay them more than they're worth - yes, that includes BY if he doesn't make a pretty big jump. That's one of the many reasons Tillis is as important as anyone to the future of this team.
    • He had heart surgery a while back he looks Fraile I hope he is okay
