“He knows the type of player that I am and knows what I can generate. … I feel like it’s gonna be a good thing; once I’m healthy to get into that offense and see the scheme and finally have a guy that actually wants to play through me so we can get to where we really need to be at. I think it’s going to be a good thing.” Furlong’s article
makes perfect sense to me. Taylor never liked the idea of running to set up the pass, or at least he wasn’t very invested in that idea. Ludwig is the kind of coordinator that this offense needs IMO.
I’m wondering if his draft grade was based off of when he was healthy and putting up the numbers that he was. With his injury and not able to perform at the NFL combine at 100%, I wonder if they projected his draft stock to be lower which partially influenced him to come back and finish his business all on a healthy note. Thinking out loud here…
He continually stated after games the last two years that he didn’t know why he didn’t get more Carrie’s and that he came to Utah because it’s a run the ball team. Not surprised by these comments.
This makes me happy. I also never understood this obsession for TT to get Huntley into the 40 passes a game range. When that was dialed back good things happened.
