Watching Zach Wilson play reminds me EXACTLY of Corral
ForJimmy replied to DMathematics's topic in Carolina Panthers
How tall is Rodgers? Lamar Jackson? Jalen Hurts? I’ve heard the MVP is between Hurts and Mahomes. Someone better tell the league a random huddler has deemed them both too short…. -
Yeah I saw that about them being ranked in the top 10. Probably because it’s metric based and they are good at run blocking, but as we mentioned not asked to pass block for obvious reasons? Not completely sure, PFF is hard to figure out sometimes. The funny thing is the following game against the Eagles they allowed 6 sacks and 6 extra QB hits. None of which PFF blamed Fields for… So 12 of his 27 pass attempts he was either hit or sacked. 27 is a higher passing attempt number (for Fields) but he is getting killed in the process. https://www.bleachernation.com/bears/2022/12/21/that-bears-offensive-line-is-getting-yet-another-makeover/ On top of that the OL is getting shuffled again due to injuries… Our staff definitely is bottom of the league. However I don’t know of many teams that would want Darnold stepping back and carving up defenses. He has had several OCs and has never shown he can read a defense. For what it’s worth Wilks trusted Baker and PJ over Sam. He could be a bad judge of talent, or he could see what most of the league has seen. Hell I think we were the only true bidders when he was made available by the Jets.

Amazing moment…..and as always….respect to Rivera
ForJimmy replied to WarPanthers89's topic in Carolina Panthers
Rivera is a class act and great person. Coaching style aside I have nothing but respect for that man. -
I think his OL is too bad at pass protection to let him pass too much. Getting drilled in the pocket is what tore Burrow’s ACL, and ended Cam’s career early. I get your point though, at some point he is going to have to pass more or he will never fully develop. Yeah they are pretty much treating Sam like a project rookie QB who needs time to develop. The issue is it’s year 5 for him and he is making dumb money. If we had a rookie out there I wouldn’t hold our game plan against him.

I don't think anyone thinks Fields is an elite passer yet. Fields hype is excitement about his potential. He has the Bear's anemic offense looking respectable (their defense is another story and he can't close out games yet). Our weakness is Sam/passing game and the Bears only strength is arguably their second year QB's explosive playmaking ability. Fields is suppose to look like this and get better as the season progresses which he is. It's really not even comparable at this point, but anyone making excuses for Darnold's lack of weapons and then claiming Fields sucks is questionable at best on their QB judgement at least to me.... For a while Fields was rolling with 2 5th round tackles and Moony as his top WR. The easiest way to tell is imagine if Fields and Darnold (who is) became FAs somehow after this season. You would have a line of teams for Fields and teams looking for a backup might consider Sam after 5 years and 2 teams of lackluster success. Honestly I have nothing against Darnold, but hearing people wanting to roll with him next season seems crazy to me unless they are only wanting him as a cheap backup (which appears to be his ceiling after 5 years). It why we are looking at drafting a QB and the Bears are looking at building around their promising young QB.
-
I think Stroud just lacks experience in crunch time. OSU usually handles their opponents with relative ease. He is definitely a question mark in that category…
-
Seems Zappe-like as the article stated. I'm not sure he has the arm strength to make all the NFL throws, but he could make for a great backup. The only probably I see if with Corral and probably a vet, there won't be much room for him on our roster (assuming we take a QB early).
-
Teddy was on par with us as he has been on every other team he has played for. Decent QB rating, decent yards, hell he got Robbie over 1000 and DJ (which he usually gets). Most yards he has ever had, 2nd most TDs, highest completion %, 2nd highest yards per attempt, and 3rd highest rating at 92.1. So you have post post injury Baker and Sam playing bad with this core. Baker looked decent his first game on that last drive with LAR, but he has already come back down to Earth against GB. Keep trying to make excuses why Darnold isn't a good starting QB. It's just comical at this point. So you are low on Fields who has waaaaaay less weapons and less of on OL, but high on Darnold. Seems logical....
-
Yeah it’s probably the entire offense’s fault and not the fact that Sam has struggled everywhere he has been. Good point……
-
You think all 32 teams passed on Corral because of some off field issues? Like no GM/Scouts interviewed him, looked into these rumors etc?? Then Fitt and Rhule were so much smarter than these other 31 teams they waited until the mid 3rd to trade for this steal of a pick?? Corral is a nice project QB with upside, but damn some of you guys are making him into some unsung hero. The FACTS are he is a previous coach’s 3rd round pick who was on IR all season and never got many reps when he was healthy. At this point he is a bonus if he does well in TC which is nice to have.
-
He had injury issues at Ole Miss as well. He needs to put on some weight and not try to play through tackles like he did in college. He played like he was Josh Allen some games. Disagree with that last take. Corral was drafted in the 3rd. This draft will have 5 plus QBs get drafted before his pick.
-
Corral was able to make “quick decisions” because Ole Miss ran a RPO. It was a very simplistic one read system. That’s his big question mark (aside from staying healthy). Can he go through progressions and read a NFL defense?
-
Tua was a top 5 pick. It was Tua 5 Herbert 6.
-
Yeah the NFC kind of blows this year. It’s why we are 5-9 and still in the playoff hunt…. Maybe teams like the Saints, Panthers, Falcons, Commanders, Giants, and probably the Seahawks need to draft a QB early in the next year or so. Bucs will need to also when Brady retires.
-
Lol right? Our entire offensive strategy has been “don’t let Sam lose the game for us,” and we have people on here bragging about his rating…. I think Hubbard got him like a quarter of his total yards on a simple quick pass.

Mike Kaye, Observer comment on Wilks support

No worries. It's hard to pick up tone and other things on a message board. -

Yeah I wasn’t arguing. Just adding information to the post. -

Yeah they are trending up we are hanging around our 5 win Rhule special.... -

I would imagine we will get outcoached. Their OC is pretty good and ours is McAdoo..... -
If you build a team that is constantly in the playoffs your odds are greater at winning it all. You can make tweaks and adjustments as needed. Look at the Rams, McVay was constantly in the playoffs with Goff then he traded for Stafford plus signed Von Miller to get his ring.
-
I think people get way too caught up on who won the Super Bowl and how to imitate that. We need a staff that can develop a QB since we don't have one and get the most out of our players to get our team to be a constant playoff threat. Once we are there we can tweak the roster/assistants as needed to make a deep playoff run. Step 1 is making the playoffs, 2 is making them consistently (which usually requires a franchise QB), 3 is making a Super Bowl run. It's though to go from constantly picking in the top 10 to Super Bowl run in the blink of an eye.

Eddy Pineiro playing well enough to stick around?

A leg up?
