Pressley Harvin update - BOOMIN'!
- Thread starter Steeltime
- Start date
Heard he had a seventy yarder from his end zone yesterday
He was and is one of the major question areas I had this year… he has immense talent, but the game was too fast for him last year… and the coaches didn’t even try to alleviate that
Let's hope the big fella has turned the page here in year 2. With our run D still with many question marks, field position will be ever-so crucial. And consistency is key.

Last year he was fat jumpsuit Elvis. Now he looks like young, hip shaking Elvis. Time for a little less conversation, a little more action.
Wake me when he does this **** in a real game
I suspect most of us want Coolie to remain unconscious.

I'm pretty sure most don't but you have to remember BEN played on this team so it was his fault......................... (sarcasm)

Practice is one thing. He couldn't do it in games last year. Get him in these final 2 preseason games.

Agree TDX27, pre-season is shortened and give coaching even less time to evaluate BUT also gives way less time for the on field starting "units" to play side by side and get that "GEL" thingy going.
After this pre-season game, it's traditional to sit starters. I'm afraid this year is cause for change due to the shortened Pre-Season. My starting OL would play a minimu of 1/2 the game, DL the same. Extended play for all starters.
Shortening the pre-season hurt the bubble players the most but increased the fortune of the owners so there is that.!!!
EDIT: I'm preaching this towards the notorious slow starts of Tomlin led teams. NOT win / loss colums but players getting up to speed but using actual game time to do so. Example to point Dan Moore didn't even know he was a LT starter until season starters were announced. He played RT last pre-season game and actually thought that was were he was going to be playing.

I bet he shanks his first live punt.
But you would have to ask if he boomed them in pre-season last year. Not sure that he did.
I think last year he was rushing punts due to the oline and him not being acclimated to the speed of the NFL game… thats why he was inconsistent AF… or at least that’s what I am hoping
If that's the case, I hope he's now acclimated to game speed, because I'm not sold that the line will be any better.

I think his competition was cut on those first round cut downs............ ?

I'm pretty sure that Harvin dealing with his father's terminal illness (and eventual death) might have been his main issue last season. These guys aren't robots.
He is obviously a talented punter, and I wouldn't be surprised if he turns it around in 2022 in a big way.
It was. I think he is the only punter on the team right now.

With him being solidified in his roster position he will be able to work harder. I think he wants to show the football world he is for real and last year he was dealing with to much personal stuff. Add in a STs coach that isn't really that good and we had what we had last year.
I see Presley having a "BOOMing" season and also more reliable than last year's.
