I'm Calling it Now: Trade for Dennis Dixon

Watch the game tonight. I thought the guy had a future watching him his last year in college. His stock dropped tremendously around draft time b/c he shredded his knee and he was another victim of the "better athlete than QB" stereotype.

The guy can ball. Strong arm, accurate, and mobile.

He was a front runner for the heisman when he shredded his knee. He might be the only backup on a roster I would be interested in. Oh, Brohm too. I learned recently that Brohm grew up in Louisville so he never truly went away from home until he was drafted. Maybe that were some of his issues in Green Bay.

Well, I don't think we'll be able to see much of him tonight apparently, they keep handing off to keep him from making mistakes out of 3rd and long situations.

If you saw him in the preseason, he looked the same as he did in college. The Steelers are going to have to let him throw it sometime tonight though...

YES, bring Dixon in and we can just make the Panthers look like the Oregon ducks. Picture this Dennis Dixon playing Quarterback with Jonathan Stewart in the backfield, Dante Rosario catching balls from Dennis Dixon, Geoff Schwartz blocking for Dixon and Stewart. I can see it now the OREGON CONNECTION, and when Dixon is out Feeley is in.

QB- Dennis Dixon

QB- A.J. Feeley

RB- Jonathan Stewart

TE- Dante Rosario

OT- Geoff Schwartz

I LIKE IT!!!

    • 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.
    • Haha I was still off was thinking of mac jones he has done extremely well this year with basically no weopons as all the 49ers are hurt except for mcaffrey but he is playing slow this year for some reason.
