That is . . . not a good career from an NFL prospect point of view.

The vast majority of college QB's see their completion percentage drop when coming to the NFL, and that guy doesn't have any room to drop.  And it's not like he was airing it out.

Not sure what we saw here other than a guy who might know the Jets playbook.

Our back up QB completed 40% of his passes in the preseason. It’s decent for us.

That's the real reason, plus it keeps Zod and David Newton busy researching about him...

they did win a handful with Dalton last year.  And Dalton looks like he belongs in the XFL at this stage. 

What would be worse? 

Losing to Will Grier with the Cowboys? 

Or Cam going to  Hou and losing to Cam complimented by the worst team in football? 

 

Don't rule out both happening. Or neither, if our offense balls out and the upperclassman Owls step up.

That may be true but you are not seeing the whole picture. WR dropped a lot of catchable ball thrown there way. And that is a fact. Given people pie and not letting them know it’s crap. 😂

Stats clearly don't tell you what actually happened but here they are

Game 3 - 13/23, 52%, 158 yards, 2 TDs, 1 INT, 2 sacks. Fum. 

Game 2 - 1/3, 33%, 5 yards

Game 1 - 5/9, 55%, 45 yards

Has a better arm than Grier (he starts at 4.10).

Woo hoo! If he didn’t miss time last year, I don’t want him. Kidding aside, that’s some ugly poo.

It sure seems our GMs cannot locate OL.  "Pssst. Elflein, Cam Erving--put down those cardboard signs and get over here.  I have some money and contracts for you..."

I still want to see them play for 4 games before passing judgement. 

As for Jordan, who knows. He seems to have very quickly fallen out of favour - started pre-season as the starter. He's worth kicking the tyres on.

I will say we're definitely leaning towards athleticism over size on the Oline. We're going to get bullied in short yardage situations.

Wide zone blocking scheme?

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

      Hey You, You Don't Know Quarterbacking

      By outlaw4 · Posted

      First off, my memory is faulty and so I should remember you. Anyways, welcome back. Having been around here since 2004/2005, I do have to say all these hot takes are not necessary new. I still very much remember all the constant complaints about Jake Delhomme. How he was too inaccurate, fumbled the ball too often, threw bad interceptions, and how Steve Smith deserved a better QB. How this franchise needed to replace Jake for someone better because he dragged everyone down. We even had names for Jake defenders; Blind Delhomme Jock Sniffers (BDJS). That one thread about Chris Weinke over Jake Delhomme because Weinke threw for 423 Yards but only scoring 13 points remains the worst hot takes I've ever seen around here. So to me, it feels like history repeating itself again and I don't feel like getting that much involved in flame wars like I used to. I am more of a sit back and see what the players/team does type of person. And even then, yes, there are so many moving parts that it's not as easy to pinpoint the core issues, especially when you're not inside the building and know every single detail.  And yes, I think even way back then, I hated how overvalued the QB position was and it hasn't gotten much better. It's to where my philosophy has shifted to where if you can't win a SB with a QB on their rookie contract, you might as well get another one. Otherwise, you have to give that QB so much money that the rest of the roster suffers and your window becomes quite narrow.  That's why I'm skeptical that Mahomes/Burrow/Jackson/Allen will win more than one or two SB's between them. None of them look as invisible as they did a few years ago and that's because their targets are much inferior and/or they are getting more roughed up behind a worse O-line.
