ricanrockers 39 Posted October 24, 2014 He had a lot of balls thrown his way but either Manning threw it off target or the DB made a good play. He's a must start every week regardless of weeks like this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted October 24, 2014 He had a lot of balls thrown his way but either Manning threw it off target or the DB made a good play. He's a must start every week regardless of weeks like this. 6 targets.....but he dropped a couple of catchable balls. I own him, but maintain that he is TD dependent.

Huh? 7 Posted October 24, 2014 6 targets.....but he dropped a couple of catchable balls. I own him, but maintain that he is TD dependent. Aren't all TE's pretty much TD dependent? A TE getting 100+ yards is pretty rare. Thomas is one of the best because he gets a lot of TDs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JT 137 Posted October 24, 2014 Just the Manning Effect. Find the hot matchup and exploit it until they make you stop. Last night that was Sanders. A week ago people were griping about his lack of production because he wasn't getting into the end zone. Somebody is going to score there, and often in bunches. The trick with any Manning team is figuring out who it's going to be this week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stonewall 647 Posted October 24, 2014 He dropped a TD last week And cost me an important game as a result As I mentioned earlier, he also dropped a couple of passes last night. He needs to get off his high horse and get his mind right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stonewall 647 Posted October 24, 2014 Aren't all TE's pretty much TD dependent? I suppose that one could argue that all ff players are....but Julius is, particularly. If you check out his yardage totals, this becomes evident. Guys like Gronk or Graham (when healthy) will turn in the 80-100 game, but rarely Julius. In fairness, I am not worried about him though...he will get his TD's. by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com After his second subpar performance in a row, we have to ask: Are you worried about Broncos tight end Julius Thomas? Thomas has long been dependent on touchdowns, but he has also been a touchdown machine over the last two seasons. He has at least one touchdown in five of seven games this season and 10 of 14 last season, so he has proven to be a reliable red zone option. In fact, Week 7 and 8 represents the first time he has gone two weeks in a row without scoring. Thomas recorded nine games with less than 50 yards last season, and has four in seven games already this season, so you pretty much know what you are getting from him. He was still targeted six times overall in each of the last two games even without scoring, a solid number in line with what we have come to expect. In other words, don't panic. That Thomas failed to score in consecutive games for the first time in two seasons is probably bad luck more than anything indicative of a changing role. He remains one of the most dangerous weapons in the league near the end zone, and should make his return there soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jaxjag 43 Posted October 25, 2014 He's blocked on every play I've seen. Two bad weeks in a row now. I thought he was blocking quite a bit last night - perhaps this is a strategic thing with Hillman in the backfield. In any event, not good for JT. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
murf74 461 Posted October 25, 2014 I thought he was blocking quite a bit last night - perhaps this is a strategic thing with Hillman in the backfield. In any event, not good for JT. Turned it off cause I couldn't stand to watch a stud plod around and block or barely go half speed for a pass. He looks lethargic last 2 weeks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
