Can Murphy be Allen's Thurman Thomas?
brianthomas replied to nikuman's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah Thurman Thomas literally changed the way running backs were used. His dual threat ability helped pave the way for the likes of Marshall Faulk or even LT. Thurman was the best all purpose back in his era. There's no way you can compare what we've seen from Marcus Murphy to him, no matter how much I like the way Murphy runs. Lets see if this guy can actually make the final roster first before we put him in the same sentence as Thurman Thomas. -
Other than him spelling his name wrong Its Reich everyone... Frank Reich

The defense will miss Preston Brown this season
brianthomas replied to Rufridr101's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
He was always there to make the tackle, even though it was 5 yards off the line of scrimmage. I liked Preston, seemed like a high character kinda guy & i believe we asked way too much of him. But the only way this Defense would miss Preston now would be for him to be the backup. Our LB corps is faster & T.Edmunds's potential vs Preston is well, heck its not even fair to compare the 2. Skies the limit for Edmunds. Preston? Well he's in Ohio. Best of luck! -
Question: Can passing accuracy issues be fixed?
brianthomas replied to GreggTX's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Considering all we've seen of Allen thus far is him playing with our 3rd stringers, I think it's too early to say he has accuracy issues. Every QB does to some extent, Allen included, but how many of those inaccurate throws were due to pressure from missed blocking assignments or from a WR slowing down on a route? Allen flat out made some throws I haven't seen completed before, such as that scramble & throw off his back foot to Khari Lee, or that bullet in the endzone to Ray Ray. Before we make judgements on his abilities, lets see more of what he can do with our #1 receivers & OL. But yes, proper coaching on a QB's release, footwork, presnap & post snap reads can all make a positive difference. -
from the reports out of camp, Ford has been doing pretty good. But practice is one thing & actual game conditions is another. The line in the 2nd half didn't play up to the level of the 1's & 2's, so maybe that effected Ford's play. If anything, if he doesn't make the team which at this point it looks like a long shot, maybe they sign him to the practice squad. Still too early to tell though where all the chips are gonna lie. These next preseason games are gonna be interesting thats for sure

lol anything would be an upgrade to Tolbert, heck we could argue that you would be. I understand the signing, it makes sense, but for the money, for his age, for what he brings on the field, i think u can get equal production from a younger back at a fraction of the cost. Marcus Murphy showed that last night.

Yeah for sure, no way Ivory gets cut with that contract. I pretty much think we roll with those 3 u mentioned.
-
If i was questioning the signing from when he was 1st signed then that would be a no

Adam Schein: Josh Allen is the next Carson Wentz
brianthomas replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
What are the odd's of finding a franchise QB in the 1st place? Not very good. I think with each QB you need to evaluate them individually. Some QB's can improve & some don't -
I personally don't see what Ivory brings that Murphy doesnt already do better. Its gonna take some pretty good play from Ivory for me to change my mind on that signing.

Do we really need another debate on Tyrod?
brianthomas replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
NO... we don't need another thread. We've had way too many threads about Tyrod over the years. He's been talked about to death. No more threads on Tyrod... PLEASE!
