His point is that fans have very short memories.Collins has earned over 2 or 3 seasons what's your point..
They also love cheerleading the under dog

When Collins comes back, he needs to replace the LG. Williams, like one poster already said, has too many penalties. Collins played LG for us when he was a rookie, and the way Steele has played has been phenomenal, especially for an UDRFA
This is realistic. Then Steel is your swing Tackle.After the Bye I think you'll see:
Smith - McGovern - Biadazz - Martin - Collins
Biadazz is a developing player, he may look really solid in 2 months...same for McGovern at LG.
Look at how many times he has a TE covering his right side to block. This isn't really Steele doing a good job on his own. It's a whole lot of smoke and mirrors that won't be needed any longer with Collins back.Steele has been solid and he has been aided by Dak's quick release and escapability and playing next to an all world RG, he is not as good as Collins.
Ah, no. More talent with Collins. FWIW, I would put Collins at left guard and let Steele man RT. That's the best lineup based on pure talent.Steele has worked so hard and done so well. Handing that job to a guy that hasn't proven himself this offseason to be trustworthy is dumb. Steele deserves a chance to start after the bye. He earned it. Collins needs to reprove himself IMO.
LG yes..at RT Steele has done nothing to lose that job. Collins has done nothing to show he should be the RT. Is he in game shape? I highly doubt it. Is he more talented? I have my doubts after seeing Steele maul people.Ah, no. More talent with Collins. FWIW, I would put Collins at left guard and let Steele man RT. That's the best lineup based on pure talent.
Collins is my starting LG and my new swing tackle in a pinch. In that event we can always plug in Connor Williams back at LG.Ah, no. More talent with Collins. FWIW, I would put Collins at left guard and let Steele man RT. That's the best lineup based on pure talent.
k why? Just askin...Steele has earned himself an extension once the season ends. But right now, Collins is and will be the starting RT.
k why? Just askin...
My main issue is the optics and messaging this decision sends. They gotta get this right. Steele is a real young dude and might be a bit fragile mentally. Hes just now feeling his oats and getting his groove on.,...taking him out NOW may affect him badly. I say we see what he does against Minny. If he doesnt do well, THEN install Collins. I think hes earned that right.Collins in shape?Is he in game speed?Performance. Steele's improvement has been a revelation but Collins is still a better player. JMO.... We'll see what Philbin and McCarthy say next week.
steele can't be left on an island much by himself. it doesn't mean that they don't. but he does get a lot of help. to that point, as a swing tackle/back up tackle he has done a great job.Look at how many times he has a TE covering his right side to block. This isn't really Steele doing a good job on his own. It's a whole lot of smoke and mirrors that won't be needed any longer with Collins back.
N when he played left guard them holes were massive I agree but hey what do we know Buddy they won’t make the changeWhen Collins comes back, he needs to replace the LG. Williams, like one poster already said, has too many penalties. Collins played LG for us when he was a rookie, and the way Steele has played has been phenomenal, especially for an UDRFA
