Too soon to call Fournette the face of the franchise?

#1

I mean the power, the agility, and the speed of a guy that size is not human. He got up without even gasping for a breath after consecutive plays and just handing the ball off like he was playing against kids.

I would say it is too soon, though I like what I've seen of him thus far. He seems like he would be a viable candidate for that down the road, but not yet.
 

Worst to 1st.  Curse Reversed!

I do think he will be the best player on the team very soon

I know it's foolish and I'm drinking the kool-aid but that 4th Down run reminded me of Fred Taylor.
While he might not have Fred's speed, he certainly has his strength and vision

Not while Lord Ramsey still reigns.

I always thought that the face of the franchise was a cat with a blue tongue, but that's just me....

You've obviously never seen me make a determined beer run.

It's a game of thrones reference, that's all.

First we have to define what the heck we mean by "face of the franchise." What is that?

I'm a little shocked nobody has started a nickname thread for him. That's usually something that happens a few minutes after a player leaves the podium at the draft.

Let's pump the brakes on "face of the franchise" talk for a bit and allow him to develop. We're one preseason game and a handful of touches into this thing.
Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

Now you've done it. I expect the bedwetters to start threads already saying to cut him.

Diversity is what this board is about.  Nicknames and "CUT HIM!" threads can coexist here, right?

I agree; too soon. But those four runs on that second drive had shades of MJD in them. Now we just need to see him break one long.
