Quizz Rodgers worries me a bit

[JSeahawks]

Watched a ton of him when he was at Oregon State. Every time I watch Atlanta he's making plays while Michael Turner's getting stuffed.

The little dude's a baller and our linebackers are going to need to be very aware of him coming out of the backfield in the passing game.

He is amazingly fast. He will for certain break multiple tackles against us. I'm glad he's not the starter.

More shifty, quick and hard to find and tackle then fast, imo. Really strong for a little dude too. Only ran a 4.64 40 time at the combine.

Living here in Georgia, I am forced to watch all of the Falcons games, Jacquez Rodgers is a beast. He is Atlanta's version of Sproles from the Saints. We must contain him on the dump off passes. That, is where he's most dangerous.

I am worried about him as well. Very shifty, and loves to cut back. And we know that guys that are good at cutting back have a tendency to hurt us.

Well yeah I probably should of have said quick. Still, I was watching the Saints game (I know, the Saints are horrible tacklers....) and he had a KILLER cut after a reception in a backfield to juke a guy out of his shoes on 3rd down for the 1st..... WOW. I wish we had this stud.

You have a similar guy named Golden Tate who is great and not cutting back, but doing a little jump backwards move. Also effective.

He does not worry me. I watched a fair amount of tape of Rodgers and he isnt even close to being in the same class as Sproles. Roddy White or Julio Jones on Browner worriies me, a lot. They also have Tony Gonzales, a guy that no one has been able to cover for 15 years.

Mentioned him in another thread, screen passes out of the backfield are giving me nightmares.

Hopefully the pterodactyl known as Kam Chancellor sniffs him out first series and will let him know what to expect.

If the Falcons are smart, they will use him and not Turner. Our D will have absolutely no problem with Turner, but Quizz worries me

 

[Seattle_Stunna_MD]

J Quizzz should worry us. Him coming out of the backfield to catch passes across the middle turn into huge gains. We need to check this guy hard and hit him when he makes the catch.

'Quiz will do great not only running the ball, but on those running back screens and the return game. The guy's a baller and we need to keep a serious check on him

Yeah I am a big Tate fan

With Tate though, I'd say his spin move is his signature move. It almost always seems to break a tackle. The jump backwards things is pretty good. With Quizz I think it's just his lightning fast cuts..... Ankle breaker. We'll see on Sunday I guess.

As a Falcon fan I would love to see more of Quizz than Turner on Sunday. He's a better fit our pass oriented offense with his ability to catch out of the backfield, checkdown threat, and hide behind those big O-lineman on screens since he's so small. Fortunately for those of you Seahawk fans that are worried. Mike Smith has undying loyalty towards his players, even if they're old and slow. So you can expect to see Michael Turner run into the backs of his own O-Lineman for one and two yard gains this Sunday.
