aapox 896 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 Well I was definitely wrong on how long Mitch would last, but definitely right on ARobs 100 and a TD, and I’m totally good with that! Let’s go Nick! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Brettg57 726 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 lots of YAC for ARob on Sunday. That’s some great usage and I hope they just let him try to work in space. He has not been good up to this point, at contested catches. 2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm trying to think of an example and coming up empty. I don't see how they can go back to Mitch. The good thing is, they have apparently said they are going to meet tonight and make a call on that early, probably to get the right QB ready for the next game. So we should know in the next 24 hours or so. The answer is simple: Nagy is an idiot. 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
kp96 702 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 I wonder if the QB change is going to be good for Robinson. Of course I believe Foles is a better QB, but Trubisky totally locked onto ARob. I'm just not sure if all those ARob targets were a function of game plan or Trubisky being lost out there, eyeing down his best receiver, and throwing it into coverage. Foles is a solid reader of the defense and goes through his progressions. If ARob is covered, he probably moves to his next read, unlike Trubisky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't necessarily expect more targets with Foles, just more catchable ones - that'd be an interesting split to look at after the first few Foles games. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

brosephd 1,304 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 (edited) who knew the switch woulda happened midgame with foles and will be going forward. as previously stated, maybe not more targets but foles accuracy is a lot better [...] expecting arob to be top 10 now ROS.

BallinOnnaBudget 345 Posted September 28, 2020 Share Posted September 28, 2020 At halftime yesterday, I was thinking that this was a bust WR pick at his ADP. Kinda pissed. I know other folks who had him DND coming into this draft due to inconsistency and his stumbling down the stretch last year. I was kicking myself, then Foles came in and promptly Foles'd it up! Hallelujah. ARob to the rescue. Now if he just could've held onto that ball in the End Zone. Seems like deep routes are more his forté than jump balls. Woulda been a huge day, but maybe that'll motivate him even more. As much as those late Miller TDs (in 2 out of 3 weeks) would've been awesome to have gone to ARob. The good news is, defenses will have to respect both Miller and JGraham. Gotta love it. Who needs FitzMagic when you got FolesMagic let's gOooOoO!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You too DezedandConfused. In all these years, I've never actually owned him lol. But damn, that Atlant pick was tough, CB took it out of his hands. Tough break, happy he made up for it later 🙌 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Vendetta 528 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 I think he made a name for himself on contested catches while in JAX, but the past two weeks haven’t been good for adding to that reputation. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GreatestShowonTurf 82 Posted September 29, 2020 Share Posted September 29, 2020 IMO Foles might give Robinson *more* targets because unlike Mitch he can actually see enough of the field to find when A-Rob’s open. Which is always Quote Link to post Share on other sites
