Reading the defense is different than going through your progressions. You can go through your progressions but read the defense wrong and additionally we don’t know how Pitt was asking Pickett to read defenses. In my opinion, Pickett still reads the defenses incorrectly at times but JT O’Sullivan even mentioned in his analysis that Pittsburgh might only be asking him to read the right side of the field as a lot of Pittsburgh’s routes have a circus out route built into the right side of the field. I think that is on coaching more than it’s on Pickett. What’s important for me is that Pickett can scan the field and doesn’t lock on to receivers. If the Panthers draft him I’m sure they will have given him a copy of a few plays and asked him to read them based off of how the defense is lined up. If they feel comfortable with it then I guess they’ll take him. For me, it’s the accuracy, he’s only had one year where he was an above average passer when it comes to accuracy. If you take away last year then Willis actually has a better completion percentage and he also throws a better deep ball (Picketts arm strength leaves a lot to be desired). That’s why I prefer Willis. The fumbles are also a huge issue with Pickett.

As others have said this just isn’t true. I prefer Willis over Pickett but Pickett is being mocked high because he goes through his progressions better than any QB in this class.

Love was drafted purely based off of his Sophomore season in college, his junior year he was absolute poo. At least with Pickett you have someone who is playing the best football of his life right now and with Willis you have a guy who while he isn’t putting up ridiculous numbers they are consistently good numbers. The Packers stupidly drafted Love thinking they could turn him into something, let them figure him out.

He’s not.

Minshew has at least shown the ability to be a starting NFL QB. Even his numbers in Jax were solid but Jax’s defense was so bad that Minshew never had a chance.

What’s the next fake rumor that someone is going to throw out?

Yeah I don’t buy this at all… if Rhule is going to hitch his wagon to an inexperienced QB it’ll be Pickett… not Jordan Love. Lock this thread up.

I might have to get me a black Bender jersey. The MLS Draft has one of the worst success rates out of all the major sports because most elite players have already joined academy teams and are tied to a team (whether domestic or foreign). Basically the MLS Draft is a crap shoot. For example, Austin FC selected Danny Pereira first overall in 2021. I actually had the privilege of coaching against Pereira a few years ago during his HS career. He is a very good player and had a solid career at Virginia Tech. However, his skill didn’t translate to immediate success in the MLS as he recorded one single assist in 25 games last year. Our boy Bender has a goal and two assists through his first four games. He’s a gamer.

LOLOL Melo out here dropping f bombs on national tv.

What a win tonight against the defending Supporters Shield winners! Final: Charlotte FC 3 - New England Revolution 1 6’ - Franco to Swiderski 57’ - Bender to Swiderski 64’ - Alcivar to Bender

Anton Walkes making his debut, coming in for Swiderski.

Bender might end up being the face of this league at some point. 1 goal and 2 assists in 4 games thus far.

Derrick Jones on for Alcivar and Armour on for Bender. Defensive reinforcements on to see this one through.

What a game tonight! Charlotte up 3-1 in the 70th 6’ - Franco to Swiderski 57’ - Bender to Swiderski 64’ - Alcivar to Bender

Ruiz in for Bronico and Titi Ortiz in for Rios.

Alcivar to Bender!

BENDERRRRR!!!! LFG!

What a strike by Swiderski!

Omg… BENDER TO SWIDERSKI!

They’ve got to stop playing with the ball in the back… results in another penalty. 1-1

Fun half. Really impressed with Swiderski, Bender, Alcivar, and Bronico.

Love what Swiderski is bringing tonight, best player on the pitch.

Swiderski is on another level tonight, certainly playing like a DP.

Phenomenal strike there by Karol and great buildup play. Alcivar opened up the defense with his run off the ball.

I had Alcivar at CDM but it’s going to be Bronico.
