Bookmark This: Leonard Fournette Says NFL Is Slower Than He Thought & Easy

[HacheMan]

This is what he said....

"It's a lot slower than I really thought," Fournette told NFL.com after the Jaguars' 31-24 victory over the New England Patriots on Thursday night. "That's how I've been since I first got into the NFL. A lot of people were like, 'It's going to be fast.' But by me playing in the SEC, that kind of helped me a lot.

"I think, to me, it was really easy."

 

[HacheMan]

It's going to be interesting to see how successful Fournette's career is or isn't.

If it's the latter, he will forever have those comments thrown in his face...

 

[rolltide]

31 yards on 9 carries against backups in week 1 of preseason. i guess that is a little easier than running on Bama but not surprised at the comments from a kid with an 11 on his Wonderlic

 

[FearTheRaven]

He's gonna find out quick.

 

[Betallsports]

agree, he's going to get Hit hard on a stop from a Vet, and they will just say, Welcome to the NFL kid

you just know it's going to happen

Lol... this is the epitome(does Fornette know this word?) Of what not to say when entering the NFL.. A Dback is gonna have a sack of bricks to bring to Fornettes body

 

[MarksMoneymakers]

Just put a target on his back. Not smart!!

 

[seldomseen]

I don't see him improving the Jags off much. They can't look worse than last year and he may get credit but he won't be the reason why.

 

[Acebb]

They open up at Houston.

He'll may very well end up with 43 yards and a fumble.

 

[halekulani]

surprised he said that knowing how bama shut him down bad

 

[HacheMan]

I can already see the memes after every bad game he has.

A pic of him Action, with the stat line "27 yards on 18 attempts"....and text at the bottom "The NFL is easy"

 

[Mr_Mark]

After I seen his comments I thought he had a monster pre season game or a few great hightlights... was he just being sarcastic? :think2:

 

[Jstack34]

Bump

 

[HacheMan]

28 carries - 181 yds
2TD

Gotta give him credit so far...

A lot of that came on that last run, but he has still looked good. Especially on a team with no other weapons

 

[Enfuego]

If I'm not mistaken, I think I saw LF go around the right side and during the run, gesture at the safety to come tackle him during the play.

 

[Jstack34]

Fournette looking good in the playoffs

 

[Greenbacks]

You go Lenny
