Cotton Bowl: Break a leg Patrick!

[realtick]

The level of competition isn't even NFL level and I haven't seen Peterson make a single play.

Well, what can I say then? Peterson hasn't made a "play" yet in two quarters of a football game tonight. I guess we should just forget the three years of football he's played at LSU.

He should thank YouTube for winning him the Bednarik and Thorpe award too.

 

[TheCount]

I agree that Peterson hasn't done a heck of a lot so far, still time though.

 

[casmith07]

I think we'll be trading up for Peterson.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Peterson obviously isn't playing well right now, but he's still an undeniable prospect.

That said, he has been known to allow big games to top WR's he's faced.

Every time the ball is snapped and it isn't thrown to his side of the field, he's making a play.

Good grief.

But he's lost out there...

He gave up a completion...

lol, you guys are so defensive over the guy. Good grief.

You'd think people were crying that he sucks.

I don't understand this at all, how is he obviously not playing well right now?

And no, he is not known to allow big games to top WR's he's faced, I think you're confusing Peterson with Prince. Peterson shut down big WR's like Julio Jones and AJ Green throughout his career.

I think it's more towards the comments like he's "lost" etc.

Which is ridiculous to say.

Exactly. It's ludicrous.

All of those stats didn't come when he was matched up with them.

Just a little misleading is all.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

Ok, the majority of them did man.

 

[NeonNinja]

Ok, the majority of them did man.

It's all good.

Makes the draft that more interesting between all of us.

That it does. Im sure this bowl game isn't doing much for his draft status, although its pretty much already set in stone unless he gives up about 20 completions and 300 yards and 8 TD's in this last half.

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

What was that about Miller?

 

[MarionBarberThe4th]

Already been dis-proven

 

[RoyTheHammer]

You're right.. LSU doesn't put their top CB on top WR's.

 

[RoyTheHammer]

What was that about Miller?

I said he didn't have a good half and aside from rushing the passer, he hasn't shown much.

Again, the safety for LSU #6 has been playing well. Very physical and aggressive. Likin it.
