Losing Out is the Way

Tf has Howell done? He was the third best QB in NC this year

This is your opinion. Many, many others do not share it. Completely gutted offense at Carolina this year and if it weren’t for “Big Time” Sammy Howell then UNC probably only wins 2 games all season. Watch college FB bro lol

I second that, lol top 3. He will be lucky to get drafted in round 1

Howell is a first round LOCK. Wouldn’t surprise me if he is the first or second QB off the board and we all Know QBs go early. 
 

big time arm, tough, mobile, high IQ, moxie, everything you look for in a QB.

Hell no... we ain't losing out. Not by design anyway.

Besides if you want to draft a QB...next year is the draft for that. 

Build up the damn Oline (and I mean build it STRONG), solidify the defense and have it ready for the Qb of the future if he's not currently on our roster.

That's why if I'm Rhule, I'm playing BC and Brown for the rest of the schedule to see exactly what we have to work with moving forward.

Top 5 are:

Pickett

Howell

Corral

Willis

Strong or Ridder

 

Willis is garbage. Only reason he’s not 5th is because of Strong’s bum leg.

Pickett’s stock is going to sky rocket at the combine. Howell’s experience at UNC for 3 years starting is going to be important. Also have to remember he lost about everyone but Josh Downs before the season.

You people keep saying this BS and yet we are 22-38 the last four years and 5-31 after decent starts I’m the last four years. We have been a losing team for the past four years. Our culture is a losing team that gives up like our top 7 pick from 2020 that had to be benched to focus.

I mean stop acting like we aren’t a bottom tier team. Since Newton was drafted, we weren’t talking about draft slots until we got to 2018 when we finished 1-7.

Also, to those who say you shouldn’t want to lose or care about draft slots, we were 5-11 the last two years. Here’s what would have happened if we were 4-12 instead:

1. We’d have Justin Herbert at QB instead of Brown.

2. SF would have given us 3 1sts and 1 3rd for our pick. We’d have Slater, an extra 1st and 3rd in 2022 and an extra 1st in 2023 instead of Horn.

I’d 110% rather have gone 4-12 in both years than feeling good about our culture because we were 5-11.

If we drafted Herbert my guess is that we wouldn’t have had the draft slot to get 3 1sts from the niners the following year. 
 

still though you’re right. Having Herbert changes the entire direction of this franchise. Matt rhule wanted to trade down, Hurney wanted Herbert. Matt rhule needs to be fired. 
 

And even if we didn’t trade up for Herbert, fine. This staff double downed on their stupidity and passed on fields for Darnold. Too many mistakes to keep this staff in place. They need to go.

    • I think it's strange that you still can't see where I'm coming from, and I guarantee you don't have more faith in him than I do.  You're looking at him in a vacuum, not about the team around him and the likely offensive game plans this season. We're going to be a run first team with 3 receiving options better than any of the other players on past rookie 1k seasons. If you can't understand that, then it's a you problem, not a me problem. Arizona's previous basketball coach, Sean Miller, used to do something at the first team meeting of every season and I think it's soooooooooo applicable to this situation. He'd have every player right down how many minutes/points they expected to average that season and then he'd add them up.  It would show that if they all hit those numbers, we'd score like 125 points a game and need to be playing 7 guys at a time to get their minutes. That's pretty much how you guys are putting your T-Mac expectations out there, looking solely at the player and what you think he should be able to do, not how the offense will operate as a whole. Every yard one player gets is one less yard someone else can get.  It sounds like I just have more faith in Thielen, XL, and Coker this year than most everyone else.  But a big reason for that faith is because of T-Mac and how much he'll open things up for the rest of them and Bryce being the type of QB to take the open easy passes than force it to his #1. As I've said, if any one of the following happens... Thielen ends the season sub 700 yards, XL or Coker end up sub 500 yards... Then yes, I will then shift my expectations for T-Mac's rookie year to be at least 1,000 yard season. But since I have faith in those other 3 having solid seasons, it tempers my expectations yardage totals for T-Mac this year, and this year alone.  I've also clearly stated many times that I think he's going to reach 10 TDs. If T-Mac ends the season with 800 yards and 10 TDs, while Thielen gets 900-1,000 and XL/Coker each get around 600, I don't see any world where that is a failure for a rookie season for T-Mac. Because again, we're talking about expectations, not what is possible.  So given the other WR options, I can't EXPECT T-Mac to get to the 1k mark, which is a far cry from me saying I don't think he can get there. Do you really not see the difference there?  
    • I don't recall anyone seeing this coming.  I mean, two seperate things for me.  I thought BB just might not work in college football because he is old grumpy man and college is about appealing to young kids.   So yeah, that could of gone great or horrible.  Coin flip.  This isn't that convo for me.  what we are witnessing right now play out.....this was never part of the disaster possibility/path discussed lol.  Really weird stuff.  Or maybe I missed the part where UNC hires a 20 year old "girlfriend" that apparently runs the Bill operation and before the season even starts is taking over more than just Bill but influence of the entire UNC operation.  That was her getting that official statement made today.  It was her sabotaging the Hard Knocks UNC show because she somehow wasn't the star.  Seems like elder abuse lol.  Only largely kidding.  You even got Charles Barkley saying he normally doesn't talk about personal lives of his friends but he might have to check in on Bill because this ain't normal stuff lol.  Anyway, it's entertaining.  Everything is a cartoon it seems these days.   
    • I think its strange how you were claiming this guy was the second coming of Mike Evans and you can't even get behind 1k yards? I guess I have more faith in him than you
