"I think it’s a consensus among Florida State fans and boosters that he was an embarrassment in a lot of ways to the university. He won a lot of ball games, probably one of the best football players that ever attended Florida State, but he hurt himself off the field. The good news is that he’s young enough to get over that, ya know it? And he’s gotta do that. But he just can’t make those junior high school decisions that he made while he was in college."

Was never a big Bowden fan, but is he ever right about this one.

Let me see if I've got this right...

 

BOBBY BOWDEN is criticizing Jameis Winston?

 

Bobby "Boys will be boys" Bowden?  Who wrote a letter to a judge in defense of a serial rapist who was one of his former players?

Just cant let the guy enjoy his new professional career and clean slate for 5 minutes. Gonna hear how immature he is and past bad judgements till he does something controversial again. Typical procedure...where have we seen this before??

Yeah, who wasn't arrested for theft and investigated for rape during college? Leave that poor child alone!

Thou shalt not judge...and yes, I still find myself judging. Winston passes the eye-test. but he could turn out to be the next JaMarcuss Russell if he doesn't take his job seriously.

Winston thrived in a system that tolerates repeated instances of poor behavior as long as an individual has the talent to win football games on Friday and Saturday.

 

It says more about our society's misplaced priorities than it does JW.

 

The vast majority of college students behaving in a similar manner would have more than likely been expelled and possibly spent some time in jail.

      That argument could be used for actual trolls. “If you don’t like it find somewhere else to post” is just silly. Some of us are just letting you know, you are sounding like a broken record on these threads. It’s just some constructive criticism. You don’t have to change your ways. I doubt you will. Just wanted to make sure you were aware. Feel free to deflect and use one of those GIFs again.

      It went from he has to jump to he has to bend his hips. That’s changing it. I showed you clips of him throwing deep without jumping which means he doesn’t always have to. I liked and like Stroud better so I’m not really a Bryce defender. Just think you don’t have to make up things when critiquing our QB like he has to jump to throw it deep. There is plenty of ammo there without those exaggerations. Oh yeah the “you don’t know ball” argument. Classic.

      From the ground up: How the Panthers are retooling Bryce Young's footwork to slow down time

      By strato · Posted

      I get the rookie QB formula and fully expected to see it implemented. Oh well. For the run game there was no or very little under center stuff until a good ways into the year. At least that is how I am remembering it. And no deep throwing - so stacked boxes which you can say chicken or egg on why.  Hard to run like that.  The QB that people said was so great was pulled for a designated Hail Mary thrower. That’s pretty unusual. And may speak to why we saw few deep balls in some part, along with the OL. To ignore that stuff means you aren’t working with all of the information when you try to mentally model or project what it might be like on the field.  Me, I have a slice of hope that he could maybe be NFL average but getting him to be a plus type of QB is a huge job. It depends on designing the playbook with certain values at the foundation that have to be adhered to first . You have to integrate the other pieces around this one guy’s skill set because he is a real outlier. And he has to learn the under center skill set. Maybe put that Only Positive thread back up people can go there if they don’t want to deal with rightly frustrated fans.
