Cotton Bowl: Break a leg Patrick!

[AdamJT13]

I wouldve much rather beat Philly than have Peterson for 10 years.

We'll get another player for 10 years instead.

I know this is a bowl game and all but man is the stadium rockin'. Wish our fans would sound like this when we play or atleast make noise at the right time

Hopefully everybody jumps off the Von Miller bandwagon now.

He's looked bad out there. Taking plays off, taken out of the long run by the fullback, QB ran right around him for the TD, etc..

Not a guy i'd want to spend a first or second around pick on.

Peterson and the safety for LSU #6 have impressed me. LSU OL #68 has looked decent as well.

Peterson can't stop anything it seems like. Fuller's catching everything.

After 1 half in which he hit an elusive QB twice?

It was a play from 2 inches out, damned if you do damned if you dont

Peterson aint worth a top 5 pick, prince on the otherhand is.

True.

I think the one knock against him is that he hasn't done well against top WR's throughout his career. Its debatable, but looks to be true this game.

Peterson has not impressed me in this game. He hasn't shown much willingness to be physical or active against the run, and Fuller has caught several passes downfield against him already.

Champ Bailey can't stop a good back shoulder fade pass.

The TD? Does it matter how far out it was? The QB was 5 yards from the end zone when he ran right by him.

Im glad he's gotten pressure, but that seems to be all he's good for. Again, taken out of that long run play by the fullback.. and he's definately gone half speed on some plays.

We have enough of those guys on our D.

Peterson is getting whipped up and down the field the whole game against a slow WR in Fuller. lol I dont know why I was so worked up about this guy. I think we all tend to look at highlight reel plays, ala his PRs, and think hes a great player in general.

 

[realtick]

A&M's Jeff Fuller is a really nice receiver and one that will likely make a better pro than college receiver; his game is a lot like David Gettis of the Panthers.

 

[BubbleScreen]

Peterson might be great but you wouldn't know it from his game tonight.

lol at everyone hating on every prospect

No, not really, I think those who have watched him play the games (not YouTube highlights) have seen a guy who helped shutdown A.J. Green and Julio Jones in '09 and make spectacular plays on the ball.

Fuller is a good wide receiver and the QB (#17) is making some great throws (ie. back shoulder darts).

The level of competition isn't even NFL level and I haven't seen Peterson make a single play. 54 yards to Fuller isn't shutdown territory.

This.

He's a stud, just because they completed some back shoulder throws and 1 quick comeback where he was lined up 8 yards off the ball doesn't really qualify as getting whipped.

Why is almost every Bowl game on ESPN this year???

It's good to know a few of us actually know what's going on.

According to Collinsworth the back-shoulder play is unstoppable.

According to my Dad, he would have picked off every one of them.




Cant believe people are seeing some completions and making determinations before the 1st half is over. Clearly trying to talk themselves out of him since we wont get him anyway.

You gave him 20 minutes to make a play or your out? Thats a hard marker
