  1. There's a lot of truth to this - albeit it's not just about a push for athletic QBs. The hyper focus on winning has lead to simpler and simpler offences taking hold in High School and College - ones that stress the defence vertically and horizontally. Some of that involves Read Option plays (and therefore the more athletic QBs), but it's generally simply about 'spreading' out the defence and making reads and throws as easy as possible for the QB. The problem is that as the level of athletes on defence improve as you progress up the pyramid and the amount of time they have to game plan and practice increases, these reads and throws become more and more difficult until eventually you're left with guys sat on NFL rosters who simply can't read a coverage or recognise a blitz. Obviously Bryce is the holy trifecta of not being able to read a coverage, read a blitz or make the required throw.
  2. Might as well keep him for the season at that price.
  3. He genuinely looks like if you grabbed a 22 year old fan out of the stands and handed him the football. He's small, he's slow, he doesn't know the plays, he can't read the field, he can't make the throws, he doesn't want to get hit - it's actually astounding to watch.
  4. He already is. He's easily the biggest Draft bust of all time.
  5. Tough for a QB to stat pad when he's handing the ball off to his RB.
  6. It's a rivalry game, son. You score, score and score again. They had 2 TOs remaining when the commentator was whining about Miami not kneeling. Ward was efficient and didn't turn the ball over - we scored on 7 of 8 drives.
  7. He played two years at Incarnate Word, two years at Washington State and a year at Miami. He's absolutely a Redshirt Senior.
  8. He needs to play better in the second half.
  9. And they're probably not even our best RBs. I think Tate and Allen are better than Fletcher.
  10. You can't build through FA right now - you'd have to SERIOUSLY overpay for any player.
  11. The minors?! Yeah that's pretty insulting. That's not what the football pyramid is. We do have promotion and relegation though - so does every 'soccer' league bar the MLS.
  12. Two INTs, two missed FGs and only currently down by 7. Wild.
  13. Go read his posts today (and every week) - every post is anti-Miami. Clemson might be the best team in the ACC - it'll be decided on the field - but to run down the entire conference like this is moronic.
  14. Show me on the doll where Miami hurt you.
  15. The O runs through Ward. Restrepo, George, Brown, Horton and Arroyo (I think all will play in the NFL - bar maybe George) are a good cast of receivers and of course we have a host of RBs.
