Hey guys, remember how after just having the most watched TNF game in years and having a great performance from our rejuvenated young QB in a win despite all of the injuries we incurred, the next day national media glossed over it to talk for hours on end about Justin Fields getting his first start?

I'd love to see him behind a bad Oline. 

I don't think he's as good as the hype right now. He often has all day to throw. 

That’s the case for any QB tho. If Tom Brady played behind a trash O line he’d have been out of league a decade ago

I think those days are fading, every time I hear the panthers mentioned now days it's competent, young talented. Maybe not hyped. But clearly well thought of

 

Definitely feel like it's starting to shift under Rhule.  I feel we're on that precipice similar to what happened in Seattle once Schneider and Carroll got there.

I saw plenty of the game on the RedZone channel, they even showed clips of how Fields can't get past one read and holds the ball too long.

This is how it's clear you're lying. Even Greg Olsen said you'd love to be able to say make this read or that read but the guys aren't getting open and he's getting killed within 2 seconds. Greg pointed out two missed reads the entire game. If he was throwing the ball to avoid each of those sacks he would have wound up for 5-6 interceptions.

Imagine if we did draft Fields with all else equal. We're sitting at 3-0, Darnold playing great, trying to awkwardly figure out what to do with a guy we spent a top ten pick on.

But all else wouldn't be equal because we'd be missing Jaycee Horn and probably wouldn't be far and away the number 1 defense in the NFL in every major statistical category. Just a complete lose lose.

Hate that prevent defense. They were all over Lamar on the first three downs, hence the loss of 9 yards. Go to a 3 man rush and give Lamar all the time in the world to find a wide open guy. 3 men rush never works well against a good QB unless it’s a Hail Mary.

Yeah calling a defensive  timeout allows the Ravens to set up a play and regain composure. Guess that’s why the Lions are winless….

      Some Thoughts on Legette based upon an ex-scout's ranking him WR1 in the draft

      By strato · Posted

      Oh yeah the QB is huge in this stuff. Imagine what Smitty could have done with a surgeon back there. And some more offensive minded head coaches. It was always run heavy. He was one of the best I ever saw and people didn’t know who he was outside of Carolina, for the longest time.

      Front office/scouting staff changes

      For sure, any college scout that touted Bryce Young as worth the first overall pick, needs to be gone. I don’t think the college scouts are so much the issue, I think it is the minds of the decision makers that have the most influence.  If this draft produces, and Morgan was really in charge, maybe Tepper will develop some respect and stay back and let people work.

      Every Xavier Legette target 2023

      I just am not aware of regimens that offer increased velocity which is the biggest weakness I can see in Young (that needs addressing right now). Is it possible to do? Who has done it that we can see as an example? I guess I am saying before I believe weights will give him added zip on the ball, I would want proof that it works.    I think weight room would help him not be pulled down by two fingers, even if they are big strong DL fingers. They are still fingers controlling 185 lbs. So that needs to be addressed but it is a secondary issue behind his footwork and ball velocity. It might help too, in allowing him to retain some velocity while not putting 100% effort into throws. Which should help his ‘deep’ ball.  I agree they can’t fix his footwork on those pistol or gun snaps where he slowly goes backwards and does the tippy toe thing.  Maybe putting him under center and taking the option of that type of drop away from him, forcing him into the classic under center style. Drop and plant and throw. Maybe that would help get around it.
