Matt Corral: The Biggest Underdog in The NFL


Recommended Posts

We got a steal in the third--a diamond in the rough. Considering our needs, we could not have had a better draft.  MC needs to be brought along, however, so it is up to our coaching staff to close the deal.   McAdoo will make or break his career with Corral.

We KNOW this--MC will be our starting QB no later than 2023.

start him day one. 

Early reports are he's having trouble pre snap but is doing well after.  Got to get that up to speed first. That's a crucial part of the job. He has to get everyone set and have time to read the defense before the clock runs out. I seriously doubt he can read an nfl defense well enough at this stage. Fingers crossed 🤞

I would love to have him start though.  He still has a lot to learn despite my hopes that he can be the guy.

I hope we start him when he is ready, not when we need him because we are out of options.  I think you would agree with that.

That's they only way you should start a rookie.  You are doing him a disservice by throwing him out there when he's not ready to execute the full playbook comfortably.  He has to have enough film study with a vet qb and a coach that can teach him how to read nfl defenses.  Does he have that here?  I surely hope so.

Give him the Jared Goff treatment like McVay did (In his ear with the info each and every snap). 

I think the reading of the defense part is over-blown a little if communication is live until I believe 15 secs on the play-clock. Likely not available with Brady given he literally had ''0'' OC experience, and not defending Rhule, but in an interview a while back I don't think he wanted Brady, but it was a decision that was funneled from up top, they wanted a ''slam dunk'' hire that off-season and Brady was the hottest name at the time. I still don't think his compensation was ever made public.

Corall could turn around our franchise if he does indeed pan out, but let’s hamper expectations for his initial impact he’s still a third round pick going into his first season. Let him and Sam battle it out for the starting role, no need to throw Corall into the fire yet.

best way to learn is to do. he'll get it figured out and he's not got a fragile psyche so he'll be able to handle the pressure and overcome/learn from mistakes rather than get shaken by them and crumble. the dude is tough and tenacious.

    • Ha-ha, I bet that went through everyone's mind.  Admittedly I don't read all the comments in a thread before I make a post. Great minds think alike!
    • Cam was hitting his stride as a QB in 2017/2018.     This is why I think stats like completion percentage are overrated. As long as a QB is clutch and makes the throws to win the game the rest doesn’t really matter. What good is a check down stat padder if they’re a choker.  Until Norv Turner (and briefly Chud) got here we put Cam in high pressure throwing situations all the time. We also ran the ball on first down more than most teams in the NFL in the Ron era. Coupled with shitty WRs, all that is expressed in his stats. I also assume Cam took the ball in his hands on many occasions rather than trust Funchess to catch the ball.    It was also never Cams job to play the game like someone else. His presence on the field dictated the game in a way that is rarely seen.  He showed he could play the dink and dunk game just before TJ Watt. That didn’t suddenly make him better than his earlier seasons. He just got put in a legit under center  passing game again for first time since his rookie year with Chud.    Ron took the quickest path to success and abused the RPO because his ass was about to get fired.    Cam never got the credit for being the cerebral player that he was. I just think when you are legitimately a human Superman, sometimes the best play is having the ball in your hands. He was a better passer than Delhomme was. 
    • I don't think Canales has any problem benching Bryce or moving on if Bryce doesn't come out playing like the end of last year.  It's year 3 no more excuses for Bryce
