Sweet geebus, what a Kamala-esque word salad from the loon.
Mike Evans can be, unburdened by what has been!
oh the agony!
Look at Mike Evans helping both sides reach across the aisle in unity.
Just another thing to add on the resume of a true WR1.
How about this . . . you guess the author . . I DARE YA ;-)
"Evans has been the best vertical threat in NFL history"
"Evans average depth of target (ADOT) has somehow never dipped below 13 yards in a season, and only twice dipped below 14 yards in his career. In other words, Evans has maintained elite production despite not being fed manufactured touches and getting basically nothing in the short/quick game. It’s incredibly impressive to produce at this rate while relying purely on targets/catches in lower efficiency areas of the field."
"So how is he doing it? Is there any difference to how Evans is achieving his production compared to years past? Quite a bit, actually. "
"Just 21.1 percent of his routes run are go routes, and only 14 percent of his targeted routes are of that same ilk. Compare that to last year under Dave Canales (21.6% overall routes/18.8% targeted routes) and the three most recent years under Bryon Leftwich and Bruce Arians (29.8%/29.1%)."
"So what routes are replacing those go patterns? A quick look at the numbers shows a massive increase in out and in-breaking patterns compared to the Arians/Leftwich era, which Canales had begun to lean into last year. Under Coen, Evans overall route distribution this season isn’t vastly different from under Canales, but he has become the primary option on far more in-breakers this season"
"Evans is making more of his living on in-breakers than ever before, especially on post patterns."
AND THIS ONE IS EXTRA JUICY:
"Evans has always been excellent at creating space on in and out cuts, but because of his prowess as a vertical receiver and the importance of that role in Arians’ offense, The Bucs were more content with siloing his usage and using him as a decoy when teams chose to roll extra attention his way. Because of their other weapons, and the way it manipulated opposing defenses, this approach was understandable, but didn’t always maximize targets for Evans.
In 2024, the Bucs don’t have Antonio Brown, Rob Gronkowski or even Chris Godwin for most of the year. "
(A DECOY? THE #1 RECEIVER AS A . . DECOY?)
OR THIS ONE
In 2024, the Bucs have put Evans in the slot on 33 percent of his snaps, third-most in his career behind the 2020 and 2021 campaigns. However, in those seasons Evans usage wasn’t nearly as creative as it is in 2024.
When Evans aligned in the slot in 2020 (37.9%) and 2021 (34.3%), almost 31 percent (!!) of his targeted routes were go routes (28.6 percent of his overall routes).
Fast forward to 2024, and Evans is running a go on just over 14 percent of his slot snaps, and being targeted on those patterns just 3.7 percent of the time! That is a massive difference in what the Bucs were asking him to do a few years ago. Now, Evans is running more posts (he was targeted on zero posts from the slot in 20-21!), up 3.5 percentile points from his numbers a few years ago, and being targeted on over 11 percent of those post patterns from the slot.
DH, WHOSE WORDS ARE THOSE????????????????????
and then . . whats up with that bet? Your boy Biggs entry into the football discussion:
Sweet geebus, what a Kamala-esque word salad from the loon.
so what do you say about that bet?
Great chance here for a little FOOTBALL ONLY INTELLECTUAL HONESTY . . .
lets see how it plays out lmao
DH, WHOSE WORDS ARE THOSE????????????????????
one of your FAVORITES . . . come on . . you can do it?
Broncos way too high.
Bengals way too high.
Bucs about right.
knock the Falcons down a bit, at least early on (including game 1)
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. - Darnell Mooney's status for the start of the season is uncertain as the Atlanta Falcons' second-leading receiver in 2024 is expected to miss several weeks of training camp with a shoulder injury
Broncos way too high.
I think they are expecting Nix to be even better, which would be hard to do. I'm not sure even Sean Payton thought he was going to be that good as a rookie. I certainly didn't.
But their defense is legit. Vance Joseph did an excellent job last year.
Bucs are ranked correctly. If the young talent on the defense shows up, then yes they are a top 10 unit in terms of talent and deserve to be ranked higher only then.
Broncos way too high.

I don’t think the Bengals are “way too high”. Denver, yes.
Broncos way too high.

Well said.

That Broncos game last season was a real eye opener. I like the addition of Harvey to that backfield. Mimms, Sutton and now Engram should be solid. I hate Payton but he knows how to coach. Wouldn't surprise me if the Broncos win the AFCW. That's quickly become one hell of a division.

Yep.
Love him or hate him, he’s a helluva coach.
Denver is definitely trending in the right direction.
