Title: What players would you give an attaboy to for this game?
Post by: Ed Vette on October 22, 2023, 08:50:16 PM
Besides Lawrence, Tyrod, Okereke, Hyatt, Saquon, and McCloud?

Waller and to a lesser extent Thibodeaux and Okereke.

I think Leo is a good one. He showed up a lot in this game.

Let's talk about Banks. Not since Mark Collins or maybe Will Allen have I seen a rookie corner look like he belongs.

This is fake, right?

Just FYI, this looks fake. Account is a self-described troll. And it makes no actual sense.

Not sure if Rivera actually said it but it was originally said by Dominique Wilkins of Michael Jordan:

Quote"He was something else, something else, man. I remember him walking into our locker room in Chicago (April 1987) and he walked right by me. And I'm like, what the hell is he coming in our locker room for? And he walked by me, walked by Kevin (Willis), and he tapped Randy Wittman on the leg and he said, 'Lace 'em up, it's gonna be a long f--king night.' And he walked out. He had 60 that night."

I'd give one Barkley.  Made some very strong plays.

Waller as well and also Hyatt.

Banks coming on nicely.  Hyatt working his way toward my favorite.  Long explosive clutch plays in limited snaps. 
    Not to derail the thread, but the O line to my eyes misses JMS as much as Thomas.  Meaning we have have crushed the 1st three draft picks nicely!  Even got some bonus Hawkins time too.

How far have our standards dropped when a guy who puts up 3.7 YPC and makes a critical red zone fumble that puts the game at risk is being awarded attaboys?  Are we so desperate for any sign of life?

Not sure he's a Mvp of any game this year but he's making real strides. Talking about Flott, any time he's in the game he makes a positive play. I know he sucks in practice but he's strung along a few games now were when he has been in he's made a positive play with the limited time he gets.

Yes, we are! On a serious note, I thought besides the fumble, Saquon played well.

Of course it's a fake account. It's meant to be a humorous testimony for Banks performance.

Rich, I don't think he's 100% yet but he's out there. He hasn't taken it to the outside or cut back yet, but that's a side note. I think the Oline didn't help him much, but that fumble was a killer of a nice drive.

That Hyatt catch was beautiful. Reminded me of Eli to Toomer.

Two plays that made a difference. Nick McCloud recovered the muffed punt return by Banks on their own 10. It could have resulted in a TD. Leo's blocked FG erasing 3.

hOW ABOUT jASON sEHORN?

I would give one to McFadden.. he was all over the place with great diagnosis of plays. He almost got a safety where Howell just got rid of the ball and Thibs dropped the sure TD.

How about nothing since he didn't start as a rookie. In fact he wasn't a starter until his 3rd season. I barely heard peep about him in 94-95.
