fournette has changed this offenses identity.. in a MASSIVE way
You are crazy if you think our O-line's improvement isnt partially because they have had fournette back there and it inspires them and gives them belief in the offense
You're quick to point out FBT calling you names but then you go and call me crazy because I have a different idea of what would be better for this team than you? Adams is going to be special for the next ten years. Church is league average and not getting any younger. I just think in the long run Adams would have been more valuable. You know, you can disagree with someone without calling them crazy. It's not that hard. And i do not think the O-lines 8mprovement has anything to do with fournette. This is their job, what they do for a living. They aren't going to half [BLEEP] it because one of their runnjing backs isn't as good as the other. Yeldon and ivory both had success when fournette was out.
Kamara and hunt both could have been had with out third round pick. Both are playing just as well.
Don't be so thin skinned. Saying "you are crazy if" isn't even remotely the same as "You're an idiot"
Now... OT:
Adams is going to be special for ten years? Tell me more crystal ball. How do you know he doesn't blow out a knee in 2? Or retire out of fear of CTE in 5 years? How do you know his rookie season is going to translate beyond?
Here's a hint: You don't.
Without Fournette it is plausible to think that our offense suffers, and thus, struggles even more so than it had this season. Now, I'm not saying you're completely wrong using hindsight and all. Sure.. we should have drafted a RB in round 3 like Kamara... but I dare you to find anyone who was claiming those guys were special RBs with rare size speed and strength. And no one knew Hunt and Kamara would be playing so well, although Hunt fell off quite a bit from his hot start.
We did not know what we know 13 games into the season. So we couldn't just say "Oh... lets get a safety that'll probably sit most of the season behind Church and Gip, we can get Kamara in the 3rd and he'll be pretty electric"
Yeldon and Ivory have had some success when Fournette was out, sure. But we also remember last year when it was a pain to watch the running game, OL not making holes, RBs lacking vision and the ability to HOLD ON TO THE BALL!
Anywho... you're entitled to your opinion... even if it's dumb.
