ofiba Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Warrick Dunn has yet to play his week 3 game, and LT was on bye this week. Still pretty impressive though.
Buftex Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I think rumours of Willis Mcgahees' suckiness are greatly exaggerated, like most things by the drama queens on TSW...particularly after a loss!

I think WM is a great back ! Could improve on his blitz pickup skills though.
Swift Sylvan Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 Depends on the team we play....half of those yards he has gained in 1 game, and the other half 2. I'm going to wait a couple weeks to figure out which is the exception and which is the rule.
Talonz Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I agree ! I think WM is a great back ! Could improve on his blitz pickup skills though. 785841[/snapback] I think he went to bullfighting school over the off season.
Ramius Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I agree ! I think WM is a great back ! Could improve on his blitz pickup skills though. 785841[/snapback] I completely agree. Great back. Needs to improve his blitz pick up skills. But people find it fun to hate on him because he's from the "U", and not like them.
OnTheRocks Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 on target for 1600+ yards. but even more impressive is the 4.4 ypc. compared to last seasons 3.8 ypc.
ganesh Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 The one column he really needs to improve is the # of TDs....He should have been able to punch it in at that 1 yard line. Otherwise, he is a fantastic back and I am glad he is playing for the team I root for.
Talonz Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I completely agree. Great back. Needs to improve his blitz pick up skills. But people find it fun to hate on him because he's from the "U", and not like them. 786009[/snapback] If he shows the effort he has in the last two games, I could care less if he went to ECC
Pine Barrens Mafia Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I completely agree. Great back. Needs to improve his blitz pick up skills. But people find it fun to hate on him because he's from the "U", and not like them. 786009[/snapback] That would imply he had blitz pick-up skills to begin with.
IDBillzFan Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 The one column he really needs to improve is the # of TDs....He should have beenable to punch it in at that 1 yard line. Otherwise, he is a fantastic back and I am glad he is playing for the team I root for. 786019[/snapback] Coulda been worse: i.e. see Niners' RB attempt to punch it in at the 1 yesterday.
Typical TBD Guy Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I think rumours of Willis Mcgahees' suckiness are greatly exaggerated, like most things by the drama queens on TSW...particularly after a loss! 785839[/snapback] You could probably count the number of true McGahee haters on 1 hand. The vast majority here think he's an excellent - though flawed - back who should be re-signed in the offseason. Those flaws are (or have been): 1. Blocking ability 2. Receiving ability 3. Breakaway speed 4. 3rd-down effectiveness 5. Red zone effectiveness 6. Questionable attitude Willis can improve on all of the above, and in fact, I think we have seen the noticeable improvement over the past few years. Problems 4 and 5 are not just a McGahee problem, but a coaching/OL/blocking problem too. Problem 1 was a major problem on one obvious play yesterday, but there were also many plays where McGahee did pick up his blocking assignment. The truth is that many of the top halfbacks in the league miss on a black now and then. We were spoiled with Thurman a bit, perhaps?
ajzepp Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I found numbers 22-24 particularly interesting...
DeLuca1967 Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 0 touchdowns and his coach has no faith he can get 1 yard. McGahee is a great back from 20 to 20. Get in the red zone and he sucks.
/dev/null Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 I found numbers 22-24 particularly interesting... 786197[/snapback] A couple Patriots and Ron Mexico
Frez Posted September 25, 2006 Posted September 25, 2006 A couple Patriots and Ron Mexico 786529[/snapback] How about #21? He's averaging 7.6 yards per carry.................
