@TheCountofToulouse 4 месяца назад

I like that he has the perspective he needs to appreciate his opportunity. He gives a LOT of credit to his QB, who is in fact, a great QB with exceptional throwing and leadership talent and that is also a huge credit to Puka. IMO, his rise and impact alone should have made him the Offensive rookie of the year.
