I’m just tired of hearing the same people that think we can draft Willis and the past of Cam will come back with him. That’s over with just deal with it!

Your doing the opposite of that tho. Your screaming no every quarterback that is able to run. Like his arm is dead and he will run everything and incapable of thinking between the ears. Basically mobile qb=can't throw. That isn't the case at all Mahomes being a prime example of that. Russell and kyler even more. 

I'm not expecting Willis to be Cam at all he was a once in a generation player. We have never seen a power rushing qb with a rocket arm and at 250 pounds and maybe never will again. At the least I hope Willis is around hurts at the best I say kyler...  no where is he anything like Cam. He is able to change up the speed and velocity on his throws which Cam arguably still can't do which is why every pass is a fastball.

Every thread it's the same one or two old timers wailing about mobile QB's. We get it. How many times can you shout the same take into the void? We get it you don't want the guy. Take it to Twitter or Facebook with the rest.

Nobody has an issue with mobile quarterbacks. The problem comes in when people can't differentiate between those who are great quarterbacks vs those who are merely great athletes.

Being able to outrun people at the college level and throw the ball really hard or really far idoesn't make anyone a great quarterback at the pro level. At the pro level you need accuracy, intelligence, the ability to read defenses and quick mental processing speed.

If you have those traits and are also a great athlete, that's fantastic.

If you have those traits but your athleticism is merely decent, you can still win in the pros.

If you don't have those traits, it doesn't matter how great an athlete you are. You're not going to be a great NFL quarterback. You'll probably produce some fun highlight reels and maybe even phenomenal stats, but that'll be your highest achievement while better passers are winning championships.

Basically, don't assume that just because a guy makes highlight reel plays in college that he's automatically gonna succeed in the NFL.

He might, but only if he's got the qualities that make a great passer first.

Will Smith Slap GIF by Nightingale

I can't fathom why this gif is used as a positive.

It's a cuck slapping a man - a man who shrugs it off and is incredibly professional in the aftermath. He could have verbally obliterated Smith, but he got on with the show.

goodness man. PJ Walker ran a 4.75 40 yard dash and never had more than 330 yards rushing. Willis is a bonafide athletic freak.

Honestly don’t know how you can look at them and be like “yeap. same guy.”.

We don't know what Willis runs - also Walker technically played at a higher level.

The act itself was incredibly dumb on Smith’s part. It was just used as humor that everyone recognized instantly. Nothing serious just football talk.

It's almost as tiring as HIS ARM OMG HIS ARRRRRRRRRRM! We get it, you think Willis is the second coming of Cam and Aaron Rodgers smushed together. We get it you think we win the SB with Willis. Take it to a Willis thread that needs to be created and gush there.

This IS a Willis thread. You know that right?

      See this is the problem, you say "can't get off the line quick" and "can't separate quick" but in reality it's "he can get off the line better and create more separation" which are two completely different things. If he couldn't get off the line or separate, he wouldn't have put up the numbers he did and end up a Top 10 pick. But he can get better, and maybe more accurately, consistent with them both, and that will take his game to the next level.  These are things that are also much easier to improve once you get to the NFL than things like being a poor route runner or having bad hands, two of his strengths. Thinking he can't get open in the short passing game also shows you haven't watched enough tape on him, as he was used in that role so much in college with little issue getting open and making plays. And him not using his physicality as much isn't even something that hurts his game because he's so much more agile than a player of his size should be, which he used to his advantage.  Instead of throwing passes where he'd go up and box out a player like a TE or Mike Evans does, they use his athleticism and put the ball in places that only he can get to it, and he usually does (and yes, he'll still be able to do that against NFL DB's with his catch radius). But now that he's in the NFL, I'd like to see him get stronger and add that to his game because it also will help him take his game to another level. As I've said before, if he doesn't improve on those things at all, I think he's a Top 25 WR in this league, he's already that good.  But I think he'll improve on those things and be a perennial Top 10 WR and in his prime is considered and perform like Top 5 guy in some years. My expectations for him this year at 800 yards and 8 TDs (although I do think he'll get to 10 TDs) with a real chance at getting to 1,000.  But those expectations are because I think Thielen will lead the team in yards with close to 1k and XL/Coker each end up in the 500-600 range themselves, just too many mouths to feed this year for a rookie to dominate yardage, especially if we're running the ball well again. But if Thielen can't stay healthy or puts up sub 750 yards, then yea, my expectations for T-Mac likely shift to getting to 1k as a rookie.

      Svech only 1 goal behind the guy they've pretty much already given the Conn Smythe to...
