Isn't the NFL supposed to be "easy"? Crushing blow for owners in the playoffs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zekepeak86 1,582 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Let’s go flash! Ain’t worried bout it. Just think of this.... imagine him playing and all is starting him to only be held on a carries count.... this is best scenario besides him healthy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dashoe 6,462 Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Quote Six games into his rookie season, Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette is standing by his preseason comments that the NFL is not difficult for him. In an interview with Steven Ruiz of USA Today, Fournette said he "most definitely" believes the NFL is slower than he thought it would be. "I stand by it," he said. "You’re playing against older guys, but to me the speed of the game is still the same. Playing in the SEC, and against other top schools, you’re used to that. A lot of guys who are in the NFL are SEC guys." Someone needs to tell the kid the trick to a long NFL career isnt speed, it's being REILIABLE by staying HEALTHY AND PLAYING Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If they have their division wrapped up, Id hate for them to trot him out there for 12 carries and 40 yards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sean Tambo 205 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Jags still have alot at stake with playoff seeding if Pit happens to lose this week....Fournette should see at least 15 touches, however my confidence level in him????? Not great, but I have noone better Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asapjoshy 240 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Agreed .. sucks because week 15 he would’ve feasted being up so much ... im ina tough spot because zeke is back so I can use hunt/ zeke then Kenyan drake flex, but I do like the matchup for fournette this week and the jags stilll want to win for better seeding, if he plays I expect a good game ( hopefully ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SF run D has been decent as of late as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CyberneticGhostOfXMasPast 4,135 Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 is this guy healthy ? i think the jags could make a run - but it's entirely tied to fournette's legs Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Joe Odam 925 Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 I’m sorry but someone please tell me why this guy is already being ticketed for a sure fire 1st round draft value next year. I get the “allure” given his college history and NFL draft status but I see nothing that would warrant him going several rounds higher than say....Alex Collins. Unless ofcourse he is playing hurt. He looks pedestrian Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He looks pedestrian 8 man boxes and a mediocre at best offensive line, a mediocre passing game can do that. Remember todd gurley last year? Rams invested in an offensive line and got its passing game going and he faired much better this year. Granted he is always injured and I dont think he is a first rounder by any means.

RMJ_12 1,737 Posted January 10, 2018 Share Posted January 10, 2018 The only way I could possibly see Blake Bortles starting for the Jaguars next season is if the Jaguars win the Superbowl. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
