"and on Monday cut their best offensive player..."
Fournette was our best offensive player? That's news to me.... “Motivation alone is not enough. If you have an idiot and you motivate him,now you have a motivated idiot.” Jim Rohn

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

He has an inferiority complex for being assigned the Jags and parrots the big-market perspectives he feels he’s supposed to write. I never glean new information from his articles.

This is a results-oriented business. There are no trophies or titles given for "moral victories" or for "winning the draft". Our record with DC is 37-86. 6-10 is our 2nd best season in 8 years of Caldwell leadership. These are the FACTS.

Short of the Denver game where he ran for 225 on 29 carries and the Bengals game where he cleared 131 on 29, he was remarkable pedestrian the rest of the year. In the first Tenn game, he was sitting at negative yardage until he ripped that giant run off towards the end of the game and ended with a 15/66 state line. Other games: Houston: 15/47/3.1 Tenn: 15/66/4.4 Saints: 20/72/3.6 Houston: 11/40/3.6 Colts: 8/23/2.9 Bucs: 14/38/2.7 Bolts: 15/50/3.3 Raiders: 15/50/2.8 That's a half season of games where he's pulling a 3.41 YPC. On first down, we're automatically in 2nd and 6 or 7, vice 2nd and short. He added some value at receiving, but PFF gave him a pass blocking grade of 35.7 and he had 140 snaps in pass pro...in THREE YEARS. Last year he had 264 carries, and out of those only 13 went for 15+ yards. Fournette MIGHT have been top 5 for best offensive players, but that is just out of how bad this offense is. “Motivation alone is not enough.

Yea, I would say he was totally overrated based on his draft position, but his true market value showed he’s equivalent of an undrafted player.

So you're saying not counting his best plays, he really didn't really play that well? That's not fair unless you do it for anyone you're comparing him with. Remember, we're not saying he was the best offensive player in the league, we're talking just about the team.

He as piss poor in pass pro, couldn’t see a hole to save his life and had mediocre receiving skills.
