skinny21 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 4 hours ago, NoCalMike said: The thing is any Top 15 defense is going to be able to game plan how to take a single player on offense away. With WFT Terry McLaurin is that guy. Defense are committed to him not beating the coverage and they will use any combination of coverage or scheme to make it happen. The question then becomes why can't the other WRs beat these one on one matches more often? Until a defense is punished and exposed for over-committing to taking a single player out of the game, they will continue to do that until someone else requires that coverage as well. Guys like Logan Thomas & Cam Sims, they show flashes in some games, some of the time, but neither are consistently at the kind of level that will move the extra coverage off of McLaurin. Really pure speculation on my end, but I think our other guys have trouble beating man coverage. I think Steve Sims is probably our second best receiver in this respect, but those hands/catch radius... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petey hodge Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Terry came alive in one drive catching back-to-back 1st downs... He definitely earned us the 3 points on that drive. However, he also had a false start penalty at 3rd and 5. The next play, Logan catches a 5 yard pass, and we settle for that FG. What might have been. Get well Scary Tony!

NoCalMike Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I know it was a trick play and all, but McLaurin was wide open for an easy walk-in TD but Wright never saw him and just kept rolling out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XxSpearheadxX Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 man I hope terry is a little closer to 100% this week. He had Sherman spinning like a top in that play above! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panninho Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Do you guys think he is going to have a better game (in terms of production) today? Dwayne likes to look his way. Or do you think his ankle injury was the main cause for his production dip the last two games? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panninho Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Haskins hasn't played goot at all, but our WRs have been atrocious. The drop everything. Also on the interception the smart play should have been to throw it away but even in a scramble drill, how do two of our receivers end up within 1 yard of one another? And that ball would have hit Cam Sims right in the hands if Wright doesn't get his hands in there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 He's not getting open as much as he was before. I think he's still hurt. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know what, let’s keep the playing field fair here, Terry hasn’t played well for 2-3 weeks. A really bad drop today. Penalty as well. Fantastic player. Been below par recently.

IrepDC Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Terry needs more talent around him. Any route he runs downfield he gets all of the attention. Even on quick screens the defense is keying on him because there is no other deep threat. He is the only receiver we have capable of winning his 1 on 1 match up without getting schemed open. Thomas will start to get more attention so maybe Turner will use that to McClaurin's advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 I think Terry played tough ball today. Nearly could have had a concussion on that catch he got that earned a penalty to get us the first down. Also had 77 yards receiving. QB play hasn’t been stellar but I would like to see Terry get in the end zone more. Overall I wasn’t displeased, love watching him play, he needs to have more fun out there. I think he plays better when he’s fired up, or when they all look like they’re having fun. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m surprised not even Smith has used TM to move the defense and go to the other side for a big play. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoVaSkins21 Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 (edited) Somebody has to step up on Sunday Night if they want to win the division. The WRs were terrible yesterday. Helps that Alex will hopefully be back and they'l have a competent QB at the helm and behind him. Edited December 28, 2020 by SAli457180 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure we made the hard decision to waive Make it Rain Dwayne Haskins to clear a roster spot for the return of Dontrelle "The Truth" Inman. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Califan007 The Constipated Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 If we win the division without Terry and with a hobbled Smith and Gibson...well, I'm gonna assume it means the defense played out of its ****ing mind. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's in a boot and if they can get the swelling down then it's a matter of pain tolerance. Swelling causes pain and aggravating it by movement creates more swelling. When your ankle is swollen it can hold a lot of fluid. You can tape up an ankle to provide the stability that mitigates the affected part that's sustained injury, but not if it's too swollen...I would agree on doubting him seeing any action but it is possible and definitely been done before. Remember Stephen Davis doing it and putting up a big game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Keim just on the radio has more concerns about Terry starting than he is about Alex, saying high ankle stains can often take 6 weeks to heel unless its a mild strain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah man....my ankle is still messed from undergrad. I mean my whole body is, but that's besides the point. I wouldn't rule out round one of playoffs, but even then. Doubt they make it that far (winning a playoff game), so you'd think he's done for the year at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last high ankle sprain I had was 3 weeks. After that I could walk and jog lightly but hard sprints were still painful and jumping caused excruciating pain. Then again I'm not a world class athlete with access to the best medical treatment in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Die Hard Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 (edited) If Terry is still in a boot as of yesterday, there’s no freaking way he’s playing this Sunday. It means he can’t even walk around (weight bear) without stabilization. He has to walk first (without any aid), then jog, then run, sprint, then cut. And then see how he responds to each progression. That’s not all going to happen in 5 days. Keim is right. Timeline is about 6 weeks. That’s with world class treatments 24/7. High ankle sprains suck.

NoVaSkins21 Posted December 29, 2020 Share Posted December 29, 2020 Other guys (Both Sims, Inman, AGG) are going to have to step up in Terry's absence. Cannot have a repeat of last Sunday. No drop balls or tipped passes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
