Absolutely disgusting. Between this and the way Bama fans were acting towards Texas players really show how pathic some of these fans are.

He didn't wear a tie before the game.

1000% guessing but I think they don’t want to mix up 2 different positions from their starting lineup vs 1. All they want to worry about is the best player to play LG and the rest of the OL should be the same. When Corbet comes back we already has experience/ chemistry with Moton and Bozeman so he can slide right back into RG while Zavala can flip to LG with some experience under his belt and hopefully lock down that spot for many years.

Jefferson is about to reset the WR market.

He is friends with Thielen or should I say “19”

That's fair. He is one hell of a motivator and I bet his recruiting will be even better this offseason.

Didn't you have TCU beating them week 1?

As an Auburn fan I would have loved that.

They blocked so good their arms broke....

Don't you dare Moton! Hold it together man!

That or just pull an Eli and demand they trade you.

Terrible move by their HC.

He wasn't a top 3 QB and this board would have exploded if we spent a top 10 pick on him.

There are prospects that have been as close to locks to go number 1 as possible. Andrew Luck and Trevor Lawrence most recently. I know what you are saying though Arizona could fall in love with another player like Sanders or Williams could get a nasty injury, however odds are Williams is that top pick and teams are already tanking for him. He was great his freshman year and top of the league his sophomore year. So far there hasn't been a drop-off and it would be surprising if there was one considering his offense. *His dad is already hinting at him possibly staying another year if needed. So this could definitely prevent him from going number 1.

You don’t trust a player’s release time? Their rating under pressure? Even 40 time/catch radius can be considered a statistic. It’s too broad of a category to completely ignore. Picking only on upside can be more dangerous than only on stats. It’s take a combination of info IMO. For example if a players leads the NCAA in sacks and plays in a tough division I’m definitely looking at that player. Game is the most important though IMO.

It's too broad of a category to ignore. Like I said rating under pressure, catchable ball %, completion %, release time the list can go on and on. It's definitely something they look at plus game tape (most important to me) and ceiling all get thrown in there. There are definitely misleading stats (Zappe comes to mind) when it's lesser competition or different offenses (Corral) can make them appear better so it's only a portion of the tape, but the top picks for QBs generally have great stats to back their tapes unless it's purely a potential picks (AR and Allen).

That’s why I said to a degree. If a player throws up elite stats against strong competition, they are getting some attention. QB rating under pressure is a nice one they look at as well.

Yeah people like to overexaggerate to try to make their point stand out. It's really a lot of nonsense. Guess what? I can predict my favorite team to win every game AND be aware we have a rookie QB who will need some time. It's not like we are putting money on these predictions as it's just a message board for fans. The doom and gloom fans that come back on here to mock fans for being excited about their team always confuse me. If someone wants to be optimistic about a sport they watch for fun who cares??

Bersin. Is Mike Evans available?

I mean unless it’s confirmed to be him this isn’t a real big story to me. Way too many possibilities.

Nah that’s Matt Rhule.

The NFL cares about stats to a degree, it's why players like Mac Jones and Pickett go in the first round, they had record breaking stats against elite competition. However Caleb's play is top of the league as well. He had the top rating (78.9) under pressure in FBS and overall rating (116) was also the top and these are stats they care about. He is holding on to the ball longer because he can sit back there and let longer players develop. Unless something crazy happens he is the top pick. I've already heard analyst/talking heads come up with tanking phrases like "Recalibrating for Caleb." You will read "the closest thing to Mahomes" a lot too which I'm not sure that is a good thing. How he translate is anyone's guess, but he is currently to be the next Luck/Lawrence so far. Like I've already said this is year 3 of elite play and last year he was the best in the NCAA.

He didn't win Heisman and didn't start off that hot his next year. He was benched because Caleb looked so promising as a true freshman. I really don't think they are comparable. Caleb threw 42 TDs to 5 INTS last season looks lke Ratter highest was 28 TDs and 7 INTS. Rattler was projected to make another leap in development, but never did as Caleb is already there. The Cardinals are legit tanking for Caleb. This will be his 3rd year of elite play so I would put him more in the Lawrence/Luck category than Rattler.
