Barkley's penchant for boom or bust plays

BestFeature : 5/5/2018 12:59 pm
PFF had an article (linked below) about how Barkley is the type of guy that doesn't always take what's given to him and as a result while many of his plays are spectacular home runs, many of them are not very productive. This is likely due to both his style of running and a shitty OL. I know that Saquon himself mentioned taking what's given as an area of improvement. I know that a lot of people are happy about our time of possession potentially going up, but it doesn't seem like he's the ideal type of back for that goal.


Do you think that the Giants coaching staff can improve his play in this area and is it worth it if it'll limit his explosive plays?

That’s what I found funny. I’ve been watching him state over and over again how much more knowledgeable about the league he is and yet those are the only two RBs he can think of that had outstanding rookie seasons?

Seems a bit... limited.
Edgerin James LOL Clinton Portis the worlds best blocking back?

Give me a break

I did leave out Gayle Sayers though

Im old school but Elliott shocked me

Also Emmitt Smith and Bo Jackson came out of the gate like Justify on a muddy track
Portis..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 5/7/2018 9:49 pm : link
had 1500 yards and 17 TD's his rookie year. You really should just fucking quit now.

You can pretty much name a rookie back each year who blew up. But trying to refute Portis or James didn't come out of the gate?

Like I said - you don't give a fuck about being knowledgeable.
also according to the herd we had the worst Oline in NFL history

BUT

Orleans Darkwa avg 4.4 YPC????? where does that make sense in some alternative universe?

According to most of you, If he ran for Dallas he might have broken Michael Turners one season YPC record
You are a stain of a poster

who’s not even bothering to put together a coherent argument. You aren’t worth anyone’s time. Enjoy rooting for Orleans Darkwa in the CFL.
Portis only avg 4.1 YPC his rookie year

OK and you enjoy Eli moving in the pocket like Frankenstein
Wow..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 5/7/2018 9:58 pm : link
you really are a fucking moron.

Do the math.

273 carries for 1508 yards.

I'll save you the fingers there, Chief.

It is 5.5 yds/attempt
Shiiiiittttt

He did it with Denver you fucking idiot.
Ya know...  
T-Bone : 5/7/2018 10:09 pm : link
I don’t even want to say anything bad about Darkwa because he did a nice job last year and, as you said, was one of the few kind of bright spots last year. So I’m not even gonna dis the guy.

But I feel pretty confident saying that Barkley will be better before he even steps on the field.
The unintentional..  
FatMan in Charlotte : 5/7/2018 10:10 pm : link
comedy of not knowing what the fuck you're talking about is equal parts sad and hilarious.

FatMan in Charlotte : 5/7/2018 10:16 pm : link
it takes google to know that Portis was drafted by the Broncos??

I think he also was the Offensive Rookie of the Year and there's also this thing about watching the Redskins at least a couple times a year and knowing he didn't play for them right away.

Christ, the trade of him for Champ was one of the most high-profile swaps ever.

Just because you seem to know shit about the NFL doesn't mean the rest of us are as fucking braindead.

The more I think about it..

You obviously were looking at something, yet got the YPC and the team wrong. You probably shouldn't rag on people using Google when you can't even grasp that task, Ace.

"Hogs" existence basically ended in the early '90s when Grimm, May, Jacoby, etc retired.

yes Ive obviously annoyed some people who more or less
deserved it

its a weird time of year
not much tangible to discuss
everything is yet to be proved and revealed
new players coaches. only Eli and the Owner remain
constant

lets put this post to bed

One final note though

Gil Brandt has a “Best NFL RBs of all time”
out
none were Giants and many were Cowboys


so much for Gils opinions
