If Michael Thomas ends up being in the running for comeback POTY, then Jameis Winston should be in the running too!

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Agreed. It is a little unnerving, that two "keys" to the team are coming off serious injury. It does kind of leave us with more question marks than confidence.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

I agree. Yet the Strange thing though Subguy is I actually feel pretty good with Dalton as backup and the WR corps with Olave, Landry, Callaway, and Harty and the UDFAs on the team. With the potential of the D, I still feel pretty good with those players. Maybe I’m kidding myself, but 9-8 last year with adding Olave, Juice and Dalton alone (and a healthy O line) gives me hope…

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

IF our defense is as advertised, AND Winston falters, we could have a Trent Dilfer type take us all the way!

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

I'm glad the writer has a "strong feeling". We're a better team with a healthy MT. Wait and see mode for me...

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

99.9 % of us ...

It's been a while.

Re: Michael Thomas Progress
 

Just listened to Nick's video above.

I like what he stated about MT's health not necessarily being a cause for concern (yet). Nick's been up close and in person.

I agree that - and to use his phrase - MT may not be the lynchpin for success, but like I said earlier a healthy MT makes us even better.

Because if he's NOT healthy then he'll have earned all the criticism that comes his way
