Probably only a handful of teams that DON'T need his services or wouldn't be an upgrade. Frisco spent a lot to land Lance so I'd count them out. Is Wilson much of an upgrade over Carr? Not sure at least not sure it would be worth parting with pieces to do it. Miami....definitely on the radar...just been a lot of talk surrounding Watson there....but I think there will be something of a qb carousel this offseason with a few big names like Rodgers and Wilson and Watson suffling the deck...and guys like Jimmy G, Tua, Baker, and probably even Matt Ryan who has a very tradable contract also on the move or possibly effected by a big move.

What about the Giants. O line is terrible but good back and if ever healthy good receiver corp 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted December 1, 2021 Report Share Posted December 1, 2021 (edited) I don’t see Goff being the answer in Detroit. I could see them in the market for an upgrade. I also think Mayfield’s days are numbered in Cleveland. Ownership there has shown a willingness to spend money. As it stands, he is the 3rd best quarterback in the division, and if the Steelers upgrade, he’d be the worst Edited December 1, 2021 by Steubenhoosier 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I could find a team dumb enough to take on that contract or good portion of it I would. Trade him for secondary or additional line help. It's probably his injury but just eye testing things Pollard is so much more explosive than Zeke. Probably only reason he's still playing is because of the contract.

Run the ball more, sure. JT doesn't need to be used anymore than he already is, though. There have been FOUR NFL team's all year that have kept their starting RB healthy-- Pitt(which I'm sure they'll ruin Najee Harris's career just like LeVeon Bell's), Cowboys, Colts, and Chargers. Those teams aren't stupid enough to be someone like the Titans that ran Henry into the ground, Pitt probably will eventually. JT is second in the league in rushing attempts and he is second in the league in touches. He doesn't need the ball more, generally. He got 20 touches last week and coming off a week where he got it 35 times, crazy to expect that kind of usage to continue. Now.. I'm fine with running it more, but... it needs to be Hines/Mack/Dulin on jet sweeps, not JT. Play calling was so good on Sunday. We moved the ball absolutely all over TB, once we got away from the run heavy stuff early on. Hines fumbled a punt at the 10, Pascal fumbled a ball at our own 40/45. So, they drove 50 yards for 14 points... you don't beat good teams doing that. I guess Pittman lost the ball in the sun on the deep ball? Idk. That was a perfectly thrown ball and should have either been caught or a DPI... never, absolutely never should that ball have been picked off. Arians said post game they stacked the box all game and toward the end they went with a light box w/6 and they didn't expect us to run it at that point in the game. If we have to give the ball to JT more than we already do to win games, consistently, we aren't any good to begin with. We will absolutely ruin his career if we do that. Truthfully, as honest as I can be, I thought our play selection had zero effect outcome on the game on Sunday. Our turnovers did though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
btownqb Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Reich said the exact same thing Arians did, in the 4th they dropped into coverage in the 4th which allowed us to run it with ease. Later in the game, even if they'd show pressure or man, they were dropping out of it because there is no way they were going to leave their corners out to dry with Pittman and had already been beat deep by Dulin w/a lead in the 4th quarter. Of course it was easier to run the ball at that point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Colts are 2-5 when JT gets 16 or less carries. They are 4-1 with JT getting more than 16 carries. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Those early season Colts numbers are absolutely irrelevant. We are an entirely different team now with everyone healthy. Just like Seattle but the opposite. 20-22 touches a game, sparingly more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are 4-1 with JT getting more than 16 carries. He needs at least 22-25 carries a game. I guess athletes today has to be coddled more today than ever. RB's has to have carry counts just like pitchers have pitch counts. I rather get the greatness out of player rather than trying to get a clue more years of service from the player. It is the coaches job to win games so I would do what it takes to win. If that means JT carries 30 times a game do be it. Just ask JT how many carries he would like and I bet he would want more Most great running backs gets better the more touches they get.

dgambill Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 I think we could stand to run the ball a little more....but I also think it wouldn't kill us to use Mack for 4-5 carries a game...he hasn't had a carry in what...a month.....basically since the trade deadline? Just give him a possession or drive or something in the second or third quarter and keep JT's legs fresh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted December 3, 2021 Report Share Posted December 3, 2021 Why are people only worried about RB getting hurt I would say having your QB passing 50 times a game is putting him in danger of getting hurt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything has become way over the top. They are 6-6 because Wentz and the OL weren't healthy for training camp/the first three games. Look at the YPC avg once both tackles got healthy. Look at the opposing teams pressures, as well. We aren't 6-6 because of JTs "lack of carries." His 2nd in the league in touches and carries, literally 2nd. We also aren't a complete team.. we are desperately missing a corner and a 2nd WR. I don't think anyone thought we were SB bound this season.

So, by your stats they aren't getting hurt because of to many carries if 16 is second in the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
