What Mike Wallace has done in 2 games/ Dewayne Jarrett

Said it before. The Golden Calf of Bristol is one of the nicest kids to ever play the game, but his profile just doesn't translate well to being an NFL QB.

He's a superior athlete, but that doesn't necessarily make him a good quarterback.

To tell you the respect I have for you, you are the only person on this Board that would make me reconsider The Golden Calf of Bristol as a pro QB. But I still think he can be successful if a Coach doesn't try to make him into something hes not, a prototypical drop back passer. If they can incorporate him totally in a system like Urban did in Florida he can be successful.

Appreciated, but in fairness I once thought Eric Crouch would make a great pro QB :lol:

(learned from that mistake)

How many passes can a player catch that do not get thrown? Is that too zen for everybody? How about .... Jake Delhomme sucks and can only trust himself to WR who win more jump balls than they lose like Moose and Smith.

Running better routes and getting some separation would help a lot. Being more reliable on those occasions when he is thrown to wouldn't hurt either.

Right now Jarrett looks like the flipside of Keary Colbert. KC had a decent enough work ethic but didn't have the talent. Jarrett has more talent (and size) than Colbert, but has a crappy work ethic and plays like he's disinterested.

Neither combo leads to being a dominant receiver.

Kenny Moore showed up in preseason. Jarrett didn't. That wasn't an accident.

Jarrett will be good when he leaves and goes somewhere (hopefully with a real QB that can read the field). Don't even compare him to Colbert, Colbert got solid #2 WR time in games. He blew it himself with stone hands. Jarrett has hardly gotten chances and when he has, has made some good catches (when of course they aren't on the ground or 15 feet above his head). So Kenneth Moore had a good pre-season, guess what, Jake still don't throw to him (1 catch, right?).

So, if getting the start at WR in pre-season when Smith and Moose were out doesn't count as a chance to you, then what does?

    • Reasonable. I mean I didn’t see a clear path to relief this season myself. As I have typed already, I think the QB FA class is more interesting next season and that draft is supposed to be stacked as well. There just weren’t many options this year.  When you have Tepper to contend with you have to tread lightly around this unless you are 100% certain and willIng to stake your job on it.   There were a couple of outings that helped Bryce a lot in terms of  thinking maybe he can do this, and if you are a supporter you are giving them a lot of weight. You are likely to think just get him some more help and he can do that every week. Which I think Tepper falls into that category.  And the playoffs, division champs, regardless of the way I see that, the supporters will also give that a lot of weight.    And the big one, the atmosphere In BOA for that WC game, Tepper had to be soiling himself over that. If you pulled Bryce out right now you had better be right and your new guy had better make the playoffs and look good doing it or you will be gone and your chance to build your old team back into respectability will be gone too.  So here we have Pickett on a one year deal, and Grier and King. I understand it.  
    • Well, seeing as we play the Lions at home this year, pretty sure that rumor isn't true.
    • Totally possible imo, I also caught that snippet from Morgan where he said “If” we sign him. The lack of competition says otherwise tho 🤷‍♂️
