That Corral got injured and that sucks but he was going to play behind depth oline in the preseason no matter what and even if he was QB1 he's going to take hits and be exposed to potential injury. This "it's Rhule's fault because he didn't wrap him in bubble wrap and have all world lineman in front of him every play" is just stupid bullshit.

I wasn't referring to the injury being Corral's fault. I was referring to the idea that some seem to believe, that as long as the linemen are draft picks, it's not their fault if they don't protect the QB.

Corral played behind a poo OL and got hurt when the defense rushed 4, there were 5 OL in to block, and 3 DL got to him.

Well maybe I got mixed up in the replies but I thought you were bitching because Rhule was playing Corral behind a garbage line and that's the reason he got hurt and therefore he shouldn't have done so. If that wasn't the case then I apologize.

I feel bad for Corral because this injury kills his chances to be a starter here. I feel there's 2 ways the season plays out. 1- Baker plays well, and we make or just miss the playoffs thus making us have to extend him because we'll have no other option except for Corral who looks completely unready or 2- We bottom out Rhule gets axed, and a new staff comes in and handpicks a QB in the 1st rd of the draft.

340 more passing attempts. They arent at all far off from each other overall as players though. Some of ya'll like to prop up certain players versus others for some reason. I'm equal opportunity in my criticism. They both suck as starters or backups. Nuff said.

I think our debate was over whether Darnold is better than PJ. Statistically Darnold is far better than PJ. If you take PJ attempts and match them with Sam… PJ would have 11 more INTs and - less TD. Also, PH would have been sacked 21 more times. Not sure how PJ rushing TD would have been… but from statistic trends would have been basically nothing.

Even Rhule basically acknowledged that life ain't fair...Everyone knows that it's better for a QB to play behind better players. Come on, dude.

I wish him a good recovery.  Honestly, I haven't been impressed with Corral.  I know it's an unpopular opinion.  I know some Huddlers are going to point to how young he is and adjusting to the speed of the game.  To that I say, even when talented qbs are new to the NFL, they typically show something in preseason games that's impressive.  There is usually an identifiable trait you can see in the game, the x factor they bring.  I don't see that with Corral.  I hope I'm wrong, but my money is on a wasted pick.

Yep it was really frustrating to see Howell have 2 scoring drives against us and even Zappe has showed more than Corral.

@Floppin you don't have to apologize for poo.. Classic rabbit hole from Splacknuts..

In all but one or two possessions, he was the only drafted player on the field. As in, the other 10 guys were all UDFAs. He got the dregs that most camp arms get, as a third-round pick, to preserve PJ Walker. And then people expect him to be firing 35-yard strikes, to who? To the rejects who won't be on the team in a week and couldn't get separation from a fuging fencepost? With what time? Protected by Rhule's rejects like Tecklenburg, who's not even XFL-tier?

He posted this.. It was pointed out that his whole 1st sentence was a complete lie.. And now he will spend 3 pages trying to deflect and change the subject..

Lol

    • Nobody is saying we don't need it, just that we have bigger needs elsewhere, and that type of WR is actually something that is often found in the mid rounds, you just have to scout and evaluate properly. Here's another way of looking at why WR in the 1st shouldn't even be considered an option. Looking only at players currently on the team, what position group would you feel strongest about 4 years from now? I'm not sure there is a better answer there than WR, as you have to think T-Mac is our best player on the team in 4 years (Brown is the only current player I think there is even an argument to be made over T-Mac there), with Coker not far behind. Our OL is too old to be considered, my opinions on Bryce is well known, Hubbard will be done by then and the rest of the RB is an unknown, Off-ball LB is maybe our biggest need, we only have 1 legit safety, it's certainly not TE, and our 2nd best CB right now will be 33 by then.   Brown should still be a beast as he'll only be 31, but nobody else on the DL projects to be that good in 4 years.  Edge rusher with Phillips, Scourton, and Princely is probably the only other possible answer than WR. So yes, that fast/shifty type of WR is 100% a need of ours, but we have so many other bigger needs both in the immediate and future, that to me, taking a WR in the 1st for the 3rd year in a row and having hit on another WR in the same time frame, just makes zero sense both currently and looking into the future.
    • Laughing at Slayton (Mooney or Calvin Austin III), but telling me that Coker is the next best thing since sliced bread...You laughing at Theo Johnson in reference to our guys too? LOL No one in their right mind thinks Nabers is anything but a stud (definitely top 10 if not 5 potential). You do realize that Thomas was in a new system with a furst-time coach last year (with a questionable QB to boot)? And yet still, it's possible that he eclipses even T-mac (not saying that he will). They didn't even mention Travis Hunter. In any event, we're not in the top half. Draft another legit receiver, and we will be. 
    • Absolutely, very fair assessment of the team.
