Really excited about BO. With virtually no holes to run through he just gets it done. Kid will only get better.

Originally posted by oneinchpunch View PostI certainly have been critical of Mathews over the years but he played much better last season and I look forward to him coming back and being a big part of the backfield.
All kidding aside...if Oliver can continue to develop, it can only hurt Mathews' chances of being re-signed. I like the sound of a DBrown-Oliver-Woodhead trio. I guess it will all depend on the money he'll want. Frankly, we need to re-sign Flowers, Wright, extend a couple of guys, AND go after a quality interior lineman, IMO.

Originally posted by QSmokey View PostI agree. I'm still not sold on his (Matthews') ball protection - or pass protection, for that matter - but he can only help if he can return strong. 'Bo' is too small to get 30+ touches/game. But at least we'll never accuse him of running 'too high'.

Originally posted by richpjr View PostI guess I am different than some. I want both Mathews and Donald Brown back to go along with BO.1) Jason Verrett (CB) TCU
2) Demarcus Lawrence (OLB) Boise St
3) Will Sutton (DT) Arizona St
4) Jarvis Landry (WR) LSU
5) John Urschel (OC) Penn St
6) Shamar Stephen (DT) UConn
7) Brock Coyle (ILB) Montana

Originally posted by QSmokey View PostExcept in ball protection and pass protection. Did you know that DBrown has NEVER lost a fumble in his NFL career? I think I heard that stat in one of the games I've watched. And the guy can block. Oliver can be the lead back; DBrown can get his 10 touches/game. Woodhead returns to his pre-injury self. We don't really need Matthews. And I'm not thinking the guy is gonna settle for a "decent", "friendly" deal.
Now what the team decides to do is another thing. If they let Mathews walk then im ok with that too but he is a better player than Donald Brown which is all im saying
BTW, on another off topic note......i watched Miami's game today and i really liked WR Jarvis Landry in the draft and he looked good today. Very sure handed and quick and is returning kickoffs for them and had a couple good ones today as well as 6 catches and a TD. Hated that we waited till the 7th to get a WR from this class and then ended up cutting him.Last edited by Boltjolt; 10-12-2014, 08:38 PM.
