Liked hearing that he is having an impact on our guys:
- Whop was told to drop pounds... and he lost 15. CJ says he's faster, more explosive.
- Guidry is very focused and has made a 180 turn around. Understands the system and goes well above what is asked of him.
- Payton came in ready and is putting in the time. He's running better routes and is in better control of his body. The playbook is his biggest challenge
I appreciate you continuing to bring positivity to this board. I thought the same thing when I read Brett Hudson?s comments. Especially Guidry having a change that involves the classroom and putting in work. People can say what the want about Joe, but our culture seems very solid.Quote:

I'll wait & judge the impact of coaches when their players produce on the field

This thread said whop was up 5 lbs. Has he lost 15 lbs in 2 weeks?
But, but, but everyone told me you can't see anything from twitter videos.Quote:

Back to the main topic, if your 3 you listed are ready for a nice year, we could have a much better offensive year
If this is true and it fully translates to him getting his hands around the ball consistently, he's going to have a huge year and probably get drafted.Quote:

I was just messing with you. Hopefully this season is full of posting calling me out for doubting Moorhead lolQuote:

I know, he's the only WR I have ever watched in my lifetime. I'm totally judging him with 0 knowledge of any other WRs that have ever played.Quote:

Would you say catching the ball is a mental thing? I would. Maybe his classroom work will improve his football also.Quote:

That all goes together.
Studies show that taking dance... as in ballet etc, drastically improves the function of the brain and that translates into the body. These are studies done in elderly people with Alzheimers.

It all works together.
The mental thing plays a factor definitely but not near as much as having speed, soft hands and great eye-hand coordination does.Quote:
