    A few scrimmage nuggets

    I'm not sure what more the coaches could do for him schematically. He got a ton of 1on1s outside where in theory his height and speed should lead to tons of big plays. Slants and verts should be right in his wheelhouse. Compare his ht/wt/speed and role to Dyami Brown and they're practically the...

    A few scrimmage nuggets

    Wiggins has more of a chance at greatness than Pope. He at least has the length and twitch to where he's separating pretty regularly. If he didn't have the concentration of a couchlocked stoner and didn't shrivel up every time a defender sneezes on him he could be a productive player. Pope...

    It's just weird that Pope is the guy getting pumped because there are others at the position who have legit talent but haven't emerged and have actual excuses like injuries/Covid/seniority to explain why they haven't produced yet. I think the sample size on Pope is big enough to know what he is...

    Yeah I feel like breakneck tempo is like playing with 1 hand tied behind your back at times. You don't need tempo the first few plays of a drive when you're trying to get in a rhythm. And if tempo isn't helping your run game then what's the use? Playing fast just to throw 1on1 9 routes to the...

    No complaints here. Any info you pass along to the board is appreciated. If I'm critical it's not of you being the messenger. You handle that stuff better than most of us would. And certainly there is a lot that goes on in practice or behind the scenes that fans aren't privy to which can shape...

    fwiw bigger guys look slow even when they're running fast. also fwiw I dogged you for being an undying JT4 truther and seeing his 2017 tape again was eye-opening. I forgot how good he was. Speed, sudden route breaks, ball tracking and ball skills, run after catch. I checked out his twitter and...

    A few scrimmage nuggets

    Berrios was a very polished route runner in 2017. And he caught the ball. I watched the ND game recently and Berrios' TD route was a thing of beauty with stairstep release footwork to leverage outside then an explosive break toward the sideline. That's teaching tape stuff. Pope is nowhere near...

    A few scrimmage nuggets

    I said toughness making catches in traffic and run after catch are areas where he's lacking relative to most good slots. I don't think I said he won't play better inside. He obviously has issues dealing with physical press coverage and that would alleviate some. The problem with moving Pope...

    A few scrimmage nuggets

    I was putting into context that Redding can look bad in a scrimmage and still have utility as a player. I agree there's plenty of time for it to sort itself out but I don't wanna hear excuses like "he can't get open" to explain why he's glued to the bench when he's the only strong-bodied WR with...

    Sorry bud, I will never let fan allegiance deter from sound analysis. If you don't want to learn about the game and just want rah-rah meathead soundbites you're welcome to put me on ignore list and follow the 50+ porsters who post the same machismo drivel in every thread. I hate the ****...

    A few scrimmage nuggets

    Sooo neither outside WR can make contested catches or win on intermediate routes, and the slot working the middle of the field and getting the ball in space is...the softest WR on the team who rarely makes plays after the catch. Seems good. As for Redding I was never a huge fan cause he's a...
