Giants postgame

Fact Friday: In three starts as an NFL quarterback (including postseason), Taylor Heinicke has completed 93 passes. That’s the most completions by any QB over their first three career starts in NFL history.

He’s just a fuckin gamer. I thought his play against the giants really solidified him as a guy who can get it done.

He came up short against Tampa, but lead the team and was the difference maker his next start.

Great story and big test this coming weekend

Yeah he's starting to win me over, no doubt he can play. Health is the big question and we'll probably keep saying that until he goes a long stretch without getting knocked out of a game.

Same here. I hope Scott Turner gets a bit more creative and finds a way to get the running game going. As I've been saying ad nauseum we have way too much talent at RB to have effing Danny Jones out rush our team. Part of keeping Heinecke healthy will be to not ask him to throw it 40+ times a game.

I hope the Bills game this year is our 2020 Steelers game ; a win completely unexpected football wide, even by most WFT fans.

I think the running game is going well. Like you though, I was also thinking that this team needs to run the ball more. However, it looks like through two games they are running it about 42% of the time - which is about middle of the pack as far as run/pass ratios go. Only three teams ran more than they passed last year.

That being said, I think it would go a long way to help the defense if they can figure out a way to effectively run the ball more, and sustain longer drives that way. It's going to be tough this week though, as Buffalo is pretty stingy against the run. They are equally stingy against the pass though, so it's going to require a real nice game plan from Scott Turner.

Agree. I'd have Collins as 2nd/3rd down LB with Holcomb (nickel) and as the 1 Dime LB; both until Davis 'gets it' and we see what he can do. I would consider McCain as SS with Curl at FS though, as I haven't seen enough of Everett to be convinced he can step up. Bostic should only be in on expected run downs. If we've got the talent I'd run a semi-permanent Dime style D the way the Rams did (does?). Given we face 7 or 8 games against QB's capable of taking off, our upcoming opponents must have noted how much acreage Jones has covered against us on the ground?

NICE!

On a similar note, remember when Justin Fields played a few quarters of good pre season football and the media was craving a bust for him in Canton all ready. He sure looked underwhelming against a poor Cincy team yesterday.

My thoughts too, just didn't want to go there...

[CRedskinsRule]

Heinicke had reached out to Turner mid season about a coaching job, and Turner told him to hold off, the team might need a qb.

I thought that was interesting.

Nice breakdown video on Heinicke by Kurt Warner. Heinicke still has ways to go as he missed several opportunities to make big plays, and it actually makes Turner looks better as he called some good plays but Heinicke didn't take advantage of it.

4:20 mark .... hurts to see. Big play TD right in front of him, where his eyes were looking with no pressure ... Heinike takes the short gain. Thats been a pattern.

there is so much good film breakdown content out there.
