I would have Keim as a goat. He made us wait two weeks and possible caused a lose by not signing Goggles as our kicker sooner
Agree. RB play was a bright spot last night.I agree with D-Hop and Humphries on the list. I think that's it.
Not sure what else Eno/Ingram need to do to be a hero.
I have a tendency to watch collins. He wasn’t terrible but he doesn’t play to his size. His instincts are getting better but he doesn’t shed blockers well or pound ballcarriers. Seems more like a “catch” tackler then a “punish” tackler. Not worth his draft slot at this juncture.Id be curious if anyone really watched Price, Ford, simmons, and zaven. Anyone closely watch any of those guys?

I'd say the Saint did make some plays that weren't all that common. First the long TD catch and throw, and that Kamara tightrope TD. Teams don't make plays like that all of the time. Maybe one per game if you are really good, but two? That was a bit of an outlier, just like two pick sixes are.Big concern for me was the defense.
This was the first time we faced a competent offense with a significant lead and they couldn't handle them (or before). Turnovers aside.
This suggests the previous decent defensive performances were as much down to opposing offenses playing conservative football than our defense bring good.
They still had their moments in neutral situations but I'm more concerned than I was.
Saints had 350 passing yards with a bunch of nobodies starting on offense.
Agree that Eno is deserving. That TD was something special. I'd make him the starting RB and use Conner situationally.No way I put Marco Wilson on the hero list. Sure he was gifted an INT but was terrible for most of the game. I'd put Eno in there as a hero instead. Glad that you put DJ Humphries on there as a hero.
I don't know about that! I have a private cul-de-sac that was turned into a chop shop. Nothing stopped them or made them leave, not even police. I put up a few traffic comes and they've been gone for a year now! Traffic cones work!Traffic cones provide more resistance than Harlow.
4 of these guys who played last night are most likely starting for us next season. Time to let then get time together.I watched a bunch of Ford and Price. I thought they were solid and Price did well considering little time here. Better than Harlow.
For the sake of me FF team, I agree!Agree that Eno is deserving. That TD was something special. I'd make him the starting RB and use Conner situationally.
Last week he should have been on the Goat List but wasn't. This week he should have been on the Hero List but wasn't. Possible reason, last week for much of the game we had Garcia at LG and Harlow at center. This week Ford and Price. Hopefully, next week, Hudson at center. JMO.Also, how did Eno not make this list? 7.7 ypc, stout pass blocking and the second most catches on the team probably deserves an attaboy.
Cheese and I immediately latched onto that moment. It was amazing.Marco Wilson gets hero for a single reason.
He caused a fantastic viral gif demonstrating the futility of the red rocket.
At lease Kyler when knew how to throw the ball away instead of taking a loss...oh wait

We are talking about different plays. He did it multiple times last night and has done it his entire time here. It is something he needs to work on.In the context of last game, why is this getting harped on so much?
If Kyler would have threw the ball away, the clock would have been stopped, which is the LAST thing the offense needed to do. He took a loss on the play, but he stayed in bounds & kept the clock rolling.
If anything, blame the HC for calling 253 pass plays in a row despite being up 35-17 in the 4th quarter.
I see your point but he has been doing this his entire time here. That is what I was referring to, not just one play.The one where he ran out of bounds to me was the bad one because he lost yards and stopped the clock. The one where he took the sack didn't stop the clock, the problem was he did it so recklessly it flirted with a safety and it flirted with a what if he'd fumbled and they recovered it for a TD. But the actual taking the sack there kept the clock running as someone pointed out earlier.
Note I'm not saying that's why he did it.

Actually, on second thought, the sparkly helmets looked pretty good. I think I've seen them in real life, and they don't look like anything. On TV, if you look hard at them, they do look like bowling balls, but if you're just casually watching or glancing at them, they're pretty sick.

Deandre Hopkins, WR — Welcome back, Nuk! The broadcast team mentioned that Hopkins' special gift is his length. I think it's been underrated how consistently Hopkins bails out spotty passes with his catch radius and body control. Nuk accounted for more than half of our passing yards last night.
Marco Wilson, CB — A critical attribute of a cornerback is a short memory. Wilson had a rough start to the game and shook it off. Wilson wasn't a lockdown corner but he contained Olave and limited the damage — along with his first professional INT + TD. His enthusiasm is contagious; it's time to come up with a shoe-based celebration
D.J. Humphries, OT — The Captain was doing werk last night. The right side of the line had some challenges, but Humphries remains a rock who doesn't require a lot of additional help. He had some good highlights of moving to the second level on some of Eno Benjamin's good runs.

Kyler Murray, QB — OMG, how deep inside his own head must Kyler Murray be right now to be performing like this? Half of his passing attempts went to Deandre Hopkins; 72% of his attempts went to Nuk or running backs. This isn't playing NFL quarterback; it's Madden on rookie mode.
Rondale Moore, WR — The game log says Rondale Moore played 89% of the offensive snaps last night, but he couldn't have been more invisible outside of a red zone penalty. Two targets! It's hilarious to have Kirk Heirbstreet, the #1 pro football analyst who talks about peoples' college careers, mention that CFB fans are waiting for Moore to do something.
Billy Price, OC — This isn't super-fair to price because he's been on the roster for like two weeks. This guy is a former first-round pick, and people should remember this when they think about how supposedly low-risk first-round OL are. Price had a bad snap and poor communication created some bad opportunities. I'm sure he'll get better tho.
Lined him up inside as well a couple times.xc_hide_links_from_guests_guests_error_hide_media
