TuTu Zero Drops

[RamFan503]

Apparently, TuTu has the most targets with the fewest drops (zero) of any player in preseason so far. Kind of interesting.

 

[LARams_1963]

Yeah, especially since AS and AT were saying how much he was putting it on the grass in practice. They said that's why he was slated to play the whole game against the Raiders.

Dude, I can't wait to see 1st team offense. With Kupp, Woods and what looks like a revitilized Jackson, I think TuTu is gonna have some chances for nice mismatches and could make a real difference.

 

[Dodgersrf]

It will be nice to see what he can do with a QB and can throw him the deep ball.

I wonder if we'll see both DJ and TuTu on the field at the same time on opposite sides.

I hope so. Won't be often but once or twice a game it'd be nice to see them make the CB2 of the opposing defense sweat.

That's a very good start by Atwell. I'm more worried about him getting dinged up on teams than anything, but this is promising.

 

[blackbart]

That’s great to hear. Would like to see him in space and not running reverses.

For ST I’d be happy with fair catching everything. Not letting it hit the ground unless it is in the end zone would be an improvement over the last couple of years.

Impressive. Looking forward to what he brings under McVay's real game direction and Stafford's leading from the field.

He really had a nice game. If that throw had been on time and on the money he'd have a long TD added to his stats.

Also that early fair catch he called. If he can fix that we might see him house one vs Denver.

Or make their asses pucker?

I hope to see 5 WR sets. DeSean wide on the left with Kupp in the slot, TuTu wide right, Jefferson just inside him and Woods behind them off the line. If the OL can give Stafford a 7 step drop, defend that.

 

[RamDino]

TuTu gets tackled so easily. There were times when Raiders threw him around like a rag doll. And everyone looks so big around him. He could learn a lot from Ike and how he stayed away from getting hit.

 

[Mojo Ram]

Meh

 

[TexasRam]

I will give him credit. He held onto the ball with some big hits. Even with the disappointment surrounding the pick I don't think there is one of us that are not rooting for the guy to be all they hope he can be.

It gets a lot harder vs starters but Tutu aced his first two tests. Who knows, he may be the most resilient 150 lber to ever play in the NFL.

He did have one drop to be technical. Early in the game when the linebacker knocked the ball out on the left sideline. Lot's of bigger WR's go up and get that ball and bring it down. But its ok. That will not be a bread and butter play for him. I expect him going deep, getting jet sweeps and lots of WR screens and quick outs obviously.

Really haven’t been watching the pre seasons games like I use to, but they need to figure out a better play scheme for Tutu. Anything before the marker seems pointless and asking for him to get steam rolled every time. He needs to be beyond the 1st down marker, and in open field for him to really be dangerous.

McVay will show nothing to the opposition in pre-season play, these games will be as vanilla as he can get away with. jmo.

No I get that, but if they use these types of plays in the real games for him it will be counter productive. His nutritional advisor should get him on a cream of wheat and peanut butter diet asap. Bulking up would help him on some hits and still move the sticks forward.

Not to be a Debbie Downer but what really stands out in those catches is the absolute lack of YAC or ability to get past the first guy by Tutu.

Catching the ball is expected at the NFL level. Tutu isn't going to be a possession WR anyways.
