Game day thread

Dude came up behind him and held him too lol. Slight one...still.

Wheeler and Ellerbe are really huge misses by Ireland and were stuck for another year with them. Biggest problem on the team.

So...running the ball is still a big problem huh?

What do you expect, the interior of the line is weak right now. Our best run blocking guards aren't on the field.

I really cant decide who's worse... Wheeler, or Ellerbe. Such a tough call.

Hopefully Mr. Tripp makes a statement tonight.

My thought's exactly. The only issue though... to me its clear Landry needs to play. So... who does he take snaps from? Gibson? Doubtful. Matthews? I dont know... he showed alot last year. So... with that being said, someone's talent is going to be wasted on the bench... If you can move either Gibson or Matthews you may consider it... I'd hate to see us do it, but it makes sense in a way.

If Landry is on par with Matthews right now i go with upside. Rookie gets my vote after the 3yr vet. Beit Gibson or Matthews. If Phins keep an extra WR then happy days.

That whiff by Wheeler was embarrasing

Huge reason why I wanted us to go with Brandin Cooks in the 1st. Jarvis, Matthews, and Gibson are all similarly talented in my opinion so it muddles up who should play where and when, etc. With Cooks you have a natural slot guy and it settles the position. Landry isn't a game-breaker, on his one reception tonight he had the angle and could have beaten the two safeties for a TD if he had Cooks speed/creativity but instead he just runs straight and tries to split the safeties and gets taken down. i'm not hating on Landry, I just think Cooks would have been oh so much better for our offense.

Keep em all.

Jeez they can't run block for ****!

What was that? Smh. Block McCoy!

McCoy is just a beast!

Williams better make this team.

You know what...even if our run blocking is still terrible I'll take the improved pass blocking and be pretty happy still.

Gibson = Money!

Honestly I would give Landry the reps of the TEs because he is money on those Seam routes, and he blocks as well as a lot of out TEs.

Gibson with the extension and effort for the 1st.

Damn Fine Job by Gibson! Great reach for the first down!

Wow, I know McCoy is good... but damn we can't run block worth ****.

Dallas Thomas had a better block on Sataele than McCoy.

There's no way we can cut or trade Gibson IMO. I know he'd represent the most value, but he's got to be on this roster, with Landry obviously on opening day. There's no doubt in my mind about it. If he's not on the roster, we're stupid.

Great play by Gibson

nothing new lol

We have all the pieces to be a good team this year. This year is on the coaches imo.

Really glad to have Gibson back. Missed him last year after he went down. We are deep as heck at Reciever!

Another good play. This offense really excites me
