Fatty Liver Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 1 hour ago, Arnold_Palmer said: Hate to break it to you but the short yard passing is simply winning football. Instead of turning the ball over when a play isn’t there the team gives its best player (Harris) a chance to break a tackle or two on second and long. It may not be sexy but we’ve been one of the highest scoring teams in the league since 2016 and we’ve won a lot of games with that formula. It’s not exciting football but it’s winning football. Maintaining the short game also limits Zach's exposure to getting sacked, the quicker he gets rid of the ball the better his odds of surviving to play another game. Unfortunately gambling the season on the safety of Zach's bulbacious noggin will limit the passing attack as illustrated in Ferguson's chart.

IIRC there was a stretch of games in his hay day, longer than a season combined, where he didn't get sacked. And he was as immobile as they come.

This is it exactly. The Jan/Feb bonus isn't a reward for last season, it is up-front money for the upcoming season. Kind of like a down payment for future services. In many ways, it's like a season ticket holder paying a down payment for the upcoming season, if you make the down payment, the service provider doesn't sell your ticket to someone else, and then you pay the balance as the season starts or progresses. If you don't make the down payment, then the service provided may sell your seat to someone else. In this case the team has to make the payment to the player in order to secure their rights for the coming season. If not, the player can sell their services to someone else.

Being able to pull off beating the rush with quick decision and release is one of the hardest things to defend. That and a running qb imo. 3 minutes ago, Throw Long Bannatyne said: I was surprised they were able to retain Petermann, I don't know what to make of bringing JFG back. Wonder if it means demski is taking a smaller role or not gonna be back. Love what JFG brings in terms of heart and work ethic. Always came up big when called upon too. Lyles is interesting. 6'4 4.38 11' broad and 40" vert. If he can be put in a position where he isnt needed to cover solo deep a lot he's a good get. Right now has to be hidden a bit, but could develop better decision making and coverage with coaching, hes still really young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stickem Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 How did JFG leave, can't remember was it through fa or did we trade him??? This is really an off the map move...AND like others I hope they don't plan on moving Petermann...He really hasn't hit his true potential here and to move him would be hard to swallow for this fan Tracker 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't do much there and was released last August. I remember him making a few clutch grabs for the Bombers when he was here. I agree with you on Petermann - hope we use him more! And then we've got Woli who re-upped. Edited February 5, 2020 by Doublezero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacquie Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 Or maybe people are overthinking a signing that could be just TC fodder or National depth. Brandon and bearpants 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly do people think his trade worth is? Probably not much more than 4th or 5th round pick. It's a 44 man roster, don't overanalyze signings for the bottom third of it too much. The coach trusts JFG and knows him. He's a guy to play teams and slot in if there's a pinch on O in terms of injury. wbbfan 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Booch Posted February 5, 2020 Report Share Posted February 5, 2020 Maybe Petey has let it be known he wants to be out East and we gonna do him a solid...move him out there for a pick...I wouldn't be shocked of Oshea and Walters to do that for a guy, ans Woli and Demski are most likely the 2 National receivers for the next few years Bigblue204 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I know from watching Petermann perform is that he was solid everytime we put him in...which wasn't enough as far as I'm concerned...Guidino is average to below average...He's a hustler like Hecht and that's it....Bad move to downgrade if that's what's happening...When's the last time a club did us a solid Booch...few and nonexistent if my memory serves Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
