Damn near perfect downfield pass by Wilson but his receiver didn't haul it in.

Not that it necessarily reflects on Wilson, but BYU's playcalling so far doesn't look very good to me.

Wouldn’t say that was a perfect pass, was low with no velocity at all.  Still would have been a first down if the corner didn’t knock it out but I can’t agree it was a perfect pass

He has the zip. If he would have used it there that’s a first down.

Hit the receiver right in the numbers. The guy just didn't hang on to it.

Mentioned I'm not a fan of the playcalling. So far, I'm not seeing much that's useful for evaluation.

The one thing I do notice is that physically, Wilson looks like a high school kid. That concerns me.

Yeah exactly. BYU backing out of play Washington was the biggest bitch move. Seeing him go up against a defense with 3-4 2021 draft picks on it would have been nice. That's what im so worried about, he can throw for 400 the rest of the games and win the Hiesman but it'll be so tough to really know what you're getting if we draft him

I think from watching and hearing about him, it’s really important to get a QB like Wilson an oline. I can see his play style going downhill fast as hell without one. At lot of his play making abilities comes from his quick oline. A lot of the poo he pulls won’t work in the NFL...but there’s a lot that might as well. Hard to tell as you said, especially against sub par competition.

I’d also recommend sitting him for a year or at least a half season, preferably a full season....I think he’d really benefit from that.

Ive been told that if one needs an oline to be successful then he isn't a franchise QB

You've been told wrong. Every quarterback benefits from a good offensive line.

And a quarterback doesn't need to be mobile to be a franchise quarterback.

I’ve been told Cam is a world beater QB so long as he has HOF coaching and superior scheming, a top defense, top talent offensive weapons to throw to, a mauling oline and refs that aren’t secretly planning his demise every game.

I wouldn’t take those poo posters seriously. An oline is literally the only thing a franchise qb needs to progress on track and win - see last two decades of super bowl contenders.

Very efficient, easy drive capped off by a nice pass.

One thing: Anyone else find Wilson's throwing motion a little weird looking when he throws to the right? 

Throwing to the left or the middle, he looks textbook. To the right, I could be wrong but it looks a little off to me.

and there we go. lmao at shitters IN THIS VERY THREAD. BYU was told to play a top 25 team like 2 days ago, when they were practicing for liberty. kinda unprecidented. i can see with my two very eyes this guy is already better than teddy

For what level they’re playing in, BYU offensive line is dominant. It’s a HUGE part /emphasis of their program. I could see Wilson look very pedestrian if he isn’t given a decent line, especially in the NFL.

      Drafting X is like the poster board for mistakes. Hopefully, lesson learned.

      By TD alt · Posted

      Yeah, I could jump right into the unbelievable Bryce debate now that some people are trying to flip the script because Bryce Young has, at most, a handful of decent games as a pro, but that's going to work itself out. Suffice it to say that I've seen better QBs (with an s) in a Panthers uniform, and I've certainly seen better QBs be drafted while we're playing around with Bryce, one of them who beat the crap out of us already this season... Let's forget about Bryce (and his markedly underwhelming play since he's been here); I think that most sane fans will agree that drafting him was an error, but it happens. Sure, it doesn't happen to the tune of King's ransom---including your main receiver---but it happens. You bet, you lose. Speaking of receivers...and betting and losing... Oh, man, we drafted Xavier Legette. Yes, just like with Bryce, I've entered "the dark side." Some Huddlers were telling us from the beginning, and they were right. But, I'm not apologizing for waiting to see what a guy's got before making my decision on him. X was a one-year wonder at South Carolina who parlayed some really nice production that season, a great personality and thick country accent, into becoming a first round pick (but only in Carolina). For Dan Morgan and company, He was a big swing that has turned into a big whiff (and I can still feel the ill breeze from that one). Sh¡t happens, right? Well, not so fast. Ladd McConkey was the decidedly more polished receiver who was literally ready to hit the ground running as soon as stepping onto the field as a pro. Ladd was never the biggest guy (though not the smallest), but he was the guy that could run routes, always seemed to get open---no question---and had the same speed as X, but with legit quickness and nuanced shake and bake. But Dan chose the project. He chose the guy where the game speed looks more like a tractor trailer than a 5.0 mustang. Look, I've supported X (just like Bryce) many many a day, but no more. Now I'm not saying that I won't root for the guy. Just like with Bryce, he seems like a great kid. But as far as giving excuses for the kid, and, perhaps more importantly, waiting for some miraculous breakout, I'm done with that. I've seen enough. You don't draft a project for a project. And yes, Bryce had proven to be a project after his first season. In my mind, drafting a supposedly number one receiver that needs lots of development for a starting quarterback that needs immediate help to try and further his development is not going to lead to good things. Pick the surest guy. Or at least pick the one who appears to be the surest guy, because picking can be tricky... especially when you're too busy tricking yourself.

      The Bryce Young "Game Winning Drive" narrative needs to end

      Winning ain't gonna make my eyes lie to me. Context matters, and it will always matter in the game of football.

      That TD pass to Legette against Miami. Elite. The play where Bryce rolls right to buy time until Tet can reverse field.  Bryce pumps as multiple defenders close in.  He barely gets it away before he takes a big time hit.  Beautiful off platform throw and great catch by Tet.   The second TD to Tet against Dallas where Bryce dips and turns his shoulder in to evade the pass rusher.  Resets and finds Tet in the end zone. Dude embodies the Keep Pounding mantra.
