LOL... Got'em

Anyone want to translate for the Twitter illiterate?

The website Pro Football Talk linked an article on their twitter account concerning whether or not the shortened practice limits due to the newest collective bargining agreement were playing a factor in the number of quarterback injuries this season. Derek Anderson, a quarterback for the Carolina Panthers, said that was a stupid thing.

I'm not sure what needs to be translated.

Well, that's what I read.  I didn't know if I was missing something.  Not all of us know all there is to know about social media.

One way to prevent injuries to QB's could be by flagging players for roughing regardless of the age of the QB...Nah, that sounds silly.

Hochulis excuse was bullshit, but not sure about the roughing call. QBs lose all of the protection of roughing the passer when they leave the pocket. It seemed pretty bang-bang to me.

But I also feel like the roughing call on 99 was bullshit. Looked like he just tripped or got pushed into Mccown. 

But what do I know?

'Roughing the passer' smoothly and seamlessly transitions to 'unnecessary roughness' outside of the pocket, especially when the QB, or any other player in question, is out of bounds. I imagine Cam wasn't lobbying for a roughing the passer after being hit on the sideline.

And I also agree about KK.  Some awful, awful calls yesterday.

I don't believe he was out of bounds when the hit occurred. He was close though. We never really got a good look at it.

The officiating all year has been complete horse poo.

Florio may have a point, but it goes for every position, not just the quarterback.

 

But that burn by DA is straight FIRE.

To be honest I think Florio is actually correct and I'm guessing DA might not have read the article. His argument is that with reduced practice time the OL's which need alot more time than DL's to get chemistry are far behind where they should be and thus QB's are getting hit at a higher rate because the OL's just aren't as ready as the DL's.

It's also a college problem because lineman coming to the pros are far less prepared with the advent of spread offenses for the NFL than they have been in the past which is also a reason that they need more practice time.

The argument has nothing to do with practice time of the QB's.

    • So answer the question. Why did Chark and Hurst have the same metrics (go look them up, I did... and one was actually worse in LA) with Justin Herbert? Why did Mingo have the same metrics with Dak? You're right, there is a common denominator, just not the one you're trying to make.  Why could DJ Moore get open with Bridgewater, Allen, Cam 2.0, Darnold, Baker, Williams, Bagent? I'll answer the question for you - because he is a good WR unlike Chark/Hurst/Mingo. 
    • I mean I just don't understand the argument. Baker and Sam both have been pro bowl QBs post their time here. And you just said yourself that is due to him having a damn good roster around him and they are well coached. You're even saying the bad baker is still there somewhere, but he is in a good organization with good roster and coaching that they are getting the best out of him. Why does Baker and Sam get all that benefit of the doubt but when it comes to Bryce it must be a BY9 problem, not an org or team problem?  Hell I got a guy below you arguing with me that Chark/Hurst/Mingo sucked because Bryce wouldn't throw them open. It's ridiculous how far the stretch goes. 
    • Correct.  It’s really hard to get open in the NFL when opposing defenses gameplan and cheat coverage/routes on all your players because they know your QB can’t make certain throws/plays.   magically no one that comes to Carolina can get open or make plays with the ball in their hands…..it’s like there is one singular common dominator to it all.  BY makes playing defense way too easy.   NFL players are too good to allow one side to cheat coverage and not respect all the potential threats of a route  so you can dial up a great play.  But if corners and safeties just cheat coverage and know X and Y happening on route/threats….getting open gets hard when they just play it one way.  Getting open has a lot to do with the different threats a WR can pose on a given play.
