Zigeunerzelt » Build The Team: CFB Standouts Week 5 OffenseJustice Hill

http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/adrian-peterson-jersey , RBSchool: Oklahoma State | Conference: BIG 12College Experience: Junior | Age: 21?Height / Weight: 5-10 / 190 lbsJustice Hill quietly has been one of the best running backs in the BIG 12. In his last two seasons with OK State he’s rushed for 1,142 (6 TDs) and 1,467 (15 TDs) yards respectively this season he is off to another hot start and ran all over the Kansas defense that ranks 34th in total defense in the FBS. The quarterback and receivers get a lot of attention in that spread offense but OK State is a decently balanced team with Hill getting a season high 31 carries this game. He excelled at running out of the shotgun and can run inside and outside. He’s on the smaller side and is a decent receiving option as well when the QB looks his way. Hill finished this one with 31 carries for 189 yards and a touchdown. Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, WRSchool: Oklahoma | Conference: BIG 12College Experience: Junior | Age: 21?Height / Weight: 5-10 / 168 lbsYou might remember Marquise Brown as being one of Baker Mayfield’s favorite targets last season. This year he a favorite of new QB Kyler Murray. Brown is known for his blazing speed and quickness and can beat just about anyone on the football field in a foot race. But I think he is underrated as a receiver as most people point out his athleticism. Not unlike his predecessor Dede Westbrook, Brown is a reliable receiver and can play outside and inside and run deep and short routes. He’s just one of those playmakers where all you want is to get the ball into his hands. He is off too a hot start this season and if Oklahoma keeps up this offensive pace he should be in line to break some school records. He finished this game with 5 catches for 132 yards and 2 TDs. Juwan Johnson, WRSchool: Penn State | Conference: BIG 10College Experience: RS Junior | Age: 22?Height / Weight: 6-4 / 231 lbsThe Penn State vs. Ohio State game was a great watch. Its too bad that the rest of the Penn State offense couldn’t lend more support to Trace McSorley as the game when on. The offense was operating close to ideal in the first half and a big moment in that belonged to Juwan Johnson. Johnson is regarding by some as one of the top receiving prospects in the country and with a grab like the one below you can see why. He is a another size + traits athlete that can win in a multitude of ways. Despite the loss he and McSorley were bright spots and the only reason Trace didn’t make it this week is because he had to rely too much on his legs to try and make plays where the rest of the offense let him down. You should see these two connect a lot more before the season is over. Johnson finished this one with 5 catches for 61 yards. Ian Book, QBSchool: Notre Dame | Conference: IndependentsCollege Experience: RS Junior | Age: 22?Height / Weight: 6-1 / 203 lbsNotre Dame was playing a bit of the two QB game early on in the season the same way Alabama and Clemson were. Brandon Wimbush started the first three games of the season while Ian Book started the last two. Wimbush played horribly. Ian Book did not. Book should be the starter going forward for Notre Dame because his play is light years better than Wimbush’s. Book picked apart Stanford’s defense to the tune of 24 of 33 for 278 yards and 4 TDs he also ran the ball 15 times for 47 yards. Book simply has better vision, anticipation, touch, and confidence compared to Wimbush and he can keep it up and Brian Kelly doesn't do something ridiculous Notre Dame can make some playoff noise. DefenseJoe Jackson, EDGESchool: Miami | Conference: ACCCollege Experience: Junior | Age: 21?Height / Weight: 6-5 / 265 lbsTwo Miami players on defense? Yeah Authentic D.J. Swearinger SR Jersey , my bias is showing but I feel compelled to highlight Miami players not simply when its their turn to wear the turnover chain but when they play lights out. Miami is ranked second on the nation in total defense and a big part of their success (i.e. winning and being ranked) is due to the defense. Manny Diaz if you ever want a job please apply with the Redskins. Now to the player at hand Joe Jackson. Joe is finally coming into his own this year. After having some flashes the past two season he is finally putting it all together not only in the way of rushing the passer but also by playing the run. You can see the wheels turning when he’s on the field and just how much he’s improves his recognition and anticipation. After North Carolina beat Pitt last week they ran into a wall against Miami. Part of that was Jackson coming off the edge and pressuring their quarterbacks all night long. The cherry on top was a pick 6. Jackson finished this game with 5 tackles, a sack, and a pick 6. Shaquille Quarterman, LBSchool: Miami | Conference: ACCCollege Experience: Junior | Age: 21?Height / Weight: 6-1 / 235 lbsYou know who else was a beast? Shaq Quarterman. After getting a lot of hype (at least in Miami circles) Quarterman also is coming into his own. He’s had a few nagging injuries that have limited here and there with this season being no exception but his production is at such a level that he has already tied or passed his season totals in TFLs and sacks from last year. If the blue chip prospect at inside linebacker is Devin White then Quarterman is definitely a red and I mean that in the most endearing way possible. He was after the QB all night long and finished this one with 5 tackles, 2 sacks, a pass defended, and a FF. Kendall Coleman, EDGESchool: Syracuse | Conference: ACCCollege Experience: Junior | Age: 21?Height / Weight: 6-3 / 266 lbsSyracuse nearly upset Clemson again. Clemson lost starting QB Trevor Lawrence early on but the Syracuse defense got after their backup. Syracuse is a good team this year (4-1) and losing to one of the best teams in college football by 4 points is nothing to be ashamed of. The Orange have a high powered spread offense thats puts up huge numbers but its their defense that has stifled opponents this year. While they are ranked 78th right now in total defense they have a few key defensive players that show up each week. Kendall Coleman was one of those guys this week. Coleman had 7 tackles and two sacks this game but watch out for him he is one of the most productive pass rushers at the position right now with his season totals standing at 12 tackles and 6 sacks. Jerry Tillery, DLSchool: Notre Dame | Conference: IndependentsCollege Experience: Senior | Age: 22?Height / Weight: 6-6 / 305 lbsTillery destroyed just about any block Stanford tried to give him. Not only did he shred them as a pass rusher as he racked up 4 sacks in this one but he was a big reason Bryce Love didn’t go off as usual. Tillery already has exceeded his career best in sacks and looks to build up a monster game as Notre Dame looks to make a push in the rankings. He plays with excellent power and simply can bullrush his man off his mark to impact the backfield and disrupt the offense. Definitely look out for him the rest of the year I daresay his name should be on the Senior Bowl invite list already. Happy Victory Monday, y’all! As I said last week, there will be NO rooting for losses in this space. I think most Redskins fans can relate to that voice in my head that was screaming at me yesterday afternoon D.J. Swearinger SR Jersey Elite , “What the hell are you doing in front of the TV watching this team!?!?!” That voice has been training for years. It starts doing vocal exercises after EXACTLY the kind of loss we all watched at FedEx Field against the New York Giants a week ago. The narrative after that divisional loss was that the Redskins roster had quit, and that Jay Gruden no longer had the respect of anyone from the beer vendors all the way to the team president. I suggested on the show last week that the Alex Smith situation had distracted the team mightily. I also credited the presence of one “Mark Sanchez” with the general depression that had set in around the team. I still believe that just the news that he was starting for the Redskins against New York was worth more than a small amount of angst from every nook and cranny of the sideline. Nothing personal, Mr. Sanchez, but...you know...I mean...it’s not...come on, your history. Instead, Jay Gruden found a way to win a road game with a journeyman quarterback when the season was most assuredly on the line. To all you Jay-haters out there, this was not one you would put in your “fire him” pile. We will continue pulling for wins, and continue pulling for additional meaningful football games this winter. We will also continue pulling for an organizational change of direction. More on both of these below.The thing that beats me up more than anything is watching the Redskins win on the road. So many great Redskins fans still make it out to FedEx (I counted at least a few hundred of them last week). I would love for them to see these wins. At 3-4 in Landover, it hasn’t been as bad as it...has felt. Still, last week had that “season over” feeling, which made getting up for the game against Jacksonville that much more impressive for this Redskins team. Nobody is making Super Bowl plans after beating Jacksonville http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/d.j.-swearinger-jersey , but—and I use the “but” here very responsibly—the door to the postseason was moved into the “ajar” position. Maybe it is telling that the thing I woke up thinking about today was not so much that the Redskins could punch a ticket to the postseason with two more wins, but whether or not we were in control of our own destiny or in control of our own fate. It is one of my favorite debates here. Okay...that is pretty telling. As I said above, this win doesn’t make me change my mind on Bruce Allen. Any success the Redskins are able to achieve down the stretch should be viewed—in my humble opinion—assomething the new team president can work with and build upon. A playoff appearance at this point would not be a reason to stick with Bruce Allen. For all the points made in this space last week that don’t need to be made again, the direction of the Redskins organization needs a fresh set of eyes and hands. Dan Snyder can’t be fooled into thinking a Josh Johnson-led playoff team is somehow the result of Bruce Allen’s genius. If anything, Jay Gruden is solidifying his case to be allowed to stay on as head coach irregardless of who is team president next year. I think we need someone else concocting our draft strategy. I sure as hell think we should have someone who wasn’t recently voted the “least trustworthy” decision-maker in the league dealing with the agents of players that we are going to desperately need to sign this upcoming offseason. Finally, this recent business of carrying five running backs on the 53-man roster despite never using more than three on any gameday and despite the debilitating nature of our offensive line injuries kind of blows me away. Add to that we didn’t fill our full 53-man roster two weeks ago, and let a guy like Simmie Cobbs languish when, you know...we maybe could have used a 6-7 wide receiver just makes me even more baffled. Bruce Allen is like the guy in our fantasy league that starts guys on their bye and fails to make lay-up roster moves to give him a full and legal lineup. Whether we actually lost a guy who would have or could have contributed remains to be seen, but the fact that the New Orleans Saints wanted Cobbs should tell us at least something. Count me among those who think the Alex Smith health debacle was a HUGE distraction for this roster. I talked about it having something to do with being down 40-0 to the lowly Giants. Seeing the news that Alex had been released from the hospital and was resting at home on the front side of a long road back was uplifting. Count me among those who think that had something to do with the effort level against the Jaguars. A lot of folks out there think professional athletes should be able to focus and concentrate no matter what. That doesn’t take into account that Alex Smith is the kind of man who pulls all corners of the locker room toward him. He is revered by his fellow players for...well for the way he does everything. He was fighting for his life and his leg and to think that had no impact on his teammates who showed up on Sundays to play for and with him is naive. I guarantee you that at some point soon, he is going to address this team and I would bet dollars to donuts that if and when he does, it is going to be worth enough points to get a victory.Before we talk about that potential victory Authentic Montae Nicholson Jersey , let’s give Josh Johnson some love. The 32-year old (because apparently the Redskins aren’t allowed to have quarterbacks younger than 32) played well enough to help the team get a win. What he lacks in “established success” and “pedigree,” he makes up for with effort and passion. Because of the money wrapped up in Alex Smith, and because Colt McCoy is likely to be the projected starter in September 2019, the Redskins are in need of a cheap option to consider going into camp next summer. Someone was/is going to be able to play their way into at least those plans. If Josh Johnson manages to helm this Redskins team to an unexpected playoff appearance, he will have earned the right to come back next summer and compete for a spot. While I am not saying this is the case now, he could even give the team an excuse to not draft a quarterback early in the draft. Maybe...maaaaaaaaayyyyyyybe. The Jaguars defense has not been the top-ranked unit we have seen in recent seasons, but it still has a load of talent and Johnson deserves some love for keeping the offense in the game. The thing about playing the Tennessee Titans this week is that it is yet again a team that the Redskins match up well against (hear me out). They like to ground and pound. Marcus Mariota, while capable of throwing a very pretty ball, is more likely to throw a game-winning block than a game-winning deep ball. The Titans defense is sound, but they only give up about 25 less yards per game than the Redskins. The Titans offense has only scored three more points than the Redskins this season. Sure, they are 5-1 at home (Nashville!!!!!) Preston Smith Jersey , and sure, they are riding a three-game win streak, but their style of play is one that the Redskins can actually match up against. I am not saying the Redskins should be favored, but 10-point underdogs seems a bit too much to me. I think it is something where, just like us Redskins fans, nobody knows what the hell is going to happen when this Washington team takes the field. The Titans may very well be able to line up and push the Redskins around...all I’m saying is that this should be how we hope a team lines up and tries to play the Redskins.
