Popular Post Jonboy Posted October 14, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Have to admit, I'm bummed about Evans. He really showed a nice burst in his limited action on Tuesday night. Sadly, I'm not sure how much we can expect from him going forward given how problematic these hamstring injuries can be. On the bright side, McNichols looked pretty darn good in his own right. Did you guys see that Henry only played 52% of the offensive snaps last night? I absolutely love that we finally started relying more on the pass. Tannehill showed what he can do when you just give him the keys. Will be interesting to see how much playing time McNichols gets going forward. Really wish we had a healthy Evans though too. I think he adds a dimension to this offense we don't currently have.

I definitely noticed his burst on that run to the outside. He is going to be an asset in the passing game as well. Hopefully he can get that hamstring issue under control. I liked McNichols last year coming out of preseason. I never understood why they cut him.

Bulluck4dmvp Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I lol’ed pretty good when McNichols ran out of bounds when we were bleeding the clock in the 4th. You could see Vrabel cursing under his mask just a few times. Poor kid Jonboy, Mythos27, TheChosenTitan, and 1 other 2 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaOiler Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 I was pretty impressed with McNichols, actually. Evans is a waste of a pick right now, but we'll see how things end up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a young guy that I don't think has been in the league more than 3 years. BeedoeLaw 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Mythos27 Posted October 14, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 Btw, don't anybody start jumping ship on Darrynton Evans. He's a rookie with a bad hammy. We've seen that story before in Corey Davis and Rashaan Evans and they're turned out alright. I expect similar things from Evans.

McNichols had an amazing block where he took a blitzer’s legs out. He almost threw his shoulder out.

I was specifically watching for that. I expected him to get blown up, but he did a fantastic job. On one play, Tannehill does a master PA fake that only Peyton could pull off. He turns his shoulders toward McNichols as if to handoff (he sees the blitz coming left side) but his hips go the other way where he's going to slide and make a pass. Amazing footwork and nuance from Tannehill and great pickup by McNichols. Titan8425, and TNTitans 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Titan8425 Posted October 14, 2020 Report Share Posted October 14, 2020 both impressed me greatly. McNichols is turning into a great RB2/3. Going forward it lessens the disappointment in Evans' limited participation. Loved the burst from Evans and although the re-injury is discouraging there's some great potential in him (if he can get and stay healthy). Both could really add complete our RB stable. One thing I did notice that does and doesn't have to do with both these guys: HENRY IS ANGRY. There was a series in the 4th I think it was (don't quote me on that) that they pulled DH on 2nd down (I think) and his body language showed frustration and a bit of "say what". I don't think it's directed toward the coaching or other RB's. I think he's not happy with HIS running game and I fear for the fool that gets in his way going forward. More dudes are going to get "Norman'd" before the season is up!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
