Except we don't want to lose our first-round All-World Slot Receiver on a punt return if he gets flattened like Wile. E. Coyote, especially after he is returning from a lengthy injury. Eskridge or Dallas is probably the answer if one or both of them stick.Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2023 2:45 pmDallas will be the primary kick returner.

Re: good piece on possible surprises
I think the answer to the return game is pretty obvious. Seattle sends two first and two seconds to Denver to get skinny Wilson back. Not only will he be quicker, but at 5'6 the opposing kick return team won't be able to seem him well. Who doesn't want to see Mr Unlimited returning kicks from 9 yards deep in the endzone? Bonus: he can hide behind end zone pylons and no one will even know he's back there!maoling wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2023 4:46 pmExcept we don't want to lose our first-round All-World Slot Receiver on a punt return if he gets flattened like Wile.

Re: good piece on possible surprises
Why would Dallas be the primary kick returner?? He's terrible at it. Seriously he's the slowest looking kick returner I've ever seen. With all the speed on the team, there isn't anybody else that can take the job?Sibelius Hindemith wrote: ↑Sat Jul 08, 2023 2:45 pmDallas will be the primary kick returner.

I suppose it doesn't matter much with the NFL basically dictating teams start at the 25 instead of running back kicks, but still... if I never see Dallas return another kick it'll be too soon.
Re: good piece on possible surprises
Totally agree. I like Dallas somewhat but Houston we have a problem if he is the Kick returner. I wish that could find a way to bring that guy from last season back. What a breathe of fresh air he was.SeattleAddict wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 1:36 amWhy would Dallas be the primary kick returner?? He's terrible at it.

Godwin Igwebuike, Pete says he wants to stay aggressive but it doesn't seem like it makes sense. NFL wants to get rid of kickoffs
Re: good piece on possible surprises
Well they aren't going to do it for this season. I guess he only returned 11 kicks so small sample but would love if they found away.Donn Beach wrote: ↑Sun Jul 09, 2023 1:58 pmGodwin Igwebuike, Pete says he wants to stay aggressive but it doesn't seem like it makes sense.

No doubt. Basketball is crazy. Tall teams have length. Guys that can score can score the basketball. There are more that just make me shake my head…but I can’t come up with them right now.D-train wrote: ↑Thu Jul 06, 2023 5:42 pmbtw when and why did it become vogue to call position groups, "Rooms" Wide receiver room, QB room, they will have a really good RB room this season.
Is it because they all now have their own meeting rooms? It is interesting how sports lingo has evolved over the years.
