And then Franklin continues to say "he take responsibility" for the sorry team performance. I wonder what that means in this day and age. It used to mean that he was resigning. But like some of the recent politicians that have said that they say it and then just go forward leading their areas of responsibility the same incompetent way.......
I don’t think Singleton sucks. There are no holes by the line.
Carr and the others must bite their tongues and play along. People who don't need the access to Franklin and the team can say what they wish to say.
I think you're right on the play-along part. It would probably take some big-money donors or a lot of non-renewals to put pressure on Kraft.
Why is Kaytron averaging 7 YPC behind the same line, while Nick is at 3.8? Is it because Kaytron padded his stats with a 67-yard late run against a tired FIU defense, as Nate Bauer suggests? I don't think so. As Landon Tengwall said on his podcast, some of Kaytron's long runs would have been longer, but he was stopped by the end zone. One area where Singleton does outshine Kaytron is in pass receiving, but I don't feel like we've seen much of that yet. Is there a way to get both of them in the backfield at the same time, and why aren't we doing it?
Power I. QB under center. But if the OL can't block...
I'd love to see that.
Because Katron has great vision and a quick side cut. He also has more power. And he doesn’t have great speed and the end zone joke was silly.
They either need to feature Kaytron more in single back sets or get them both on the field at the same time. Why can we see it, but the coaches can't seem to see it?
At what point does Franklin blame the wr coach.
This team should be in two back set 90+% of the time. They are two of your top 5 players (or should be) so get them out there to make the D adjust. Can put one in motion to get a running start on wheel routes, motion Singleton in to the slot to go against a LB/S, have one lead block for the other, run some scissor action in the back field or just go max protect by keeping those two in.
Yep. The big question is whether Franklin and/or Kotelnicki know how to make big changes or whether they convinced themselves that their model is correct and the players just aren't executing. I believe I know the answer to this one, but I'm not telling.
I'd take the under on that, even vs Northwestern.....
Singleton is fast. But only when he's in the open field. He doesn't hit the hole fast and doesnt' push the pile, usually at all, unless it's a goal line play. Katron has worked on his speed and he's plenty fast enough to break off long runs due to his ability to break tackles, vision and decisive cuts.
But is he a better receiver than Denmark or Howard?
