I cant say I understand this one either but I don't care how points are scored the one I've yet to figure out on this forum is why posters are quick to point out a RBs short shelf life yet don't seem to understand the same applies to QBs who run the ball 15+ times a game.

Well not only shelf life. But it's hard to go 90 yds in the Superbowl with less than 2 mins if you can't be surgical with your arm.

You aren't going to run your way there.

QBs in this day and age really need to be mobile. Sure there are a few exceptions like Brady but having the ability to run when there is an opening and there’s nothing else there is definitely important. Rodgers and Mahomes are great examples — neither are “running QBs” and very rarely do they have designed runs but they are still mobile and put up 200-300 rushing yards a year on plays where the opportunity presents itself. Statue QBs in this day and age better have Brady’s pocket awareness or they won’t stand a chance…

Yep. In these modern spread offenses when the other team blitzes the ball either has to come out immediately or you have to have the ability to make a guy miss or otherwise buy a little time. You're just not going to have enough blockers. You don't necessarily have to be a runner but the pocket statues have fallen out of favor.

Certainly, and yet you don't elite mobility to have elite pocket presence.... But I'll agree you will probably never see a successful statue like Drew Bledsoe again.

Guess what? You don't have to use a stupid spread offense.

Establish the run and use play action. If you execute you won't lose. 

If I had my way we'd grind people into submission.

What's stupid about it? All the top offenses are that way. With the way the game is called these days it's the most efficient way to move the ball. I you don't have a good QB then run the ball and play stall ball. But if you have a legit QB spread it out and make the other team try to match up and keep up.

These 4pm games are not good for gameday beer drinking with me. Oof 

the older I got, the more I wanted 4pm starts. Never was a big roll out of bed and grab a beer fellow. In fact I had a rule at one point given my family's history with booze, none before noon/lunch.

Funny deal, not many years ago for a 4pm start. I screwed up my "pre-gaming" and passed out just before the start. embarrassing plus i was caught by a friend whom used it against me for the next few months...

      Benjamin Solak on Panthers draft needs

      By strato · Posted

      Wonder if we draft a RB. Seems like a lot of eggs in Brooks’ basket right now.  And the OL, no kidding. If that running game goes to hell with what we have at QB, you can forget competing. It is so much more important than sticking another wideout on the field. Take your wideout later.

      2026 Win predictions from DraftKings

      By strato · Posted

      I have lots of different thoughts on it. This argument, the primary thing is I don’t like seeing him or anyone, being convicted on hearsay and/or pure speculation. Which some are doing.  I don’t care That much about defending Morgan as I do about the criticism being fair minded.    You sort of assert that Dan was just a yes man. I don’t think we know if he ever pushed back against Fitterer but I have this instinct thing that needs me to satisfy the question of: if Tepper was so down on a Fitterer as to fire him, why in the world would he hire his carbon copy? I guess maybe he wanted a yes man.Like I said, lots of different thoughts.     I am just not gonna judge him that harshly based only on speculation. I am sticking with what he has done starting when he was hired as GM. Maybe I am more lenient because the first season for him and Canales, I gave both a pass. Said I would judge them after the first year. Stuck to it. If you can get to the reality that neither were ready for the job and say okay give them a year get their feet wet, it looks a lot better.    And we are not bound to Bryce yet. Yes, for yet another fuging year he can probably marginally improve and slide by like he has been doing. But if they add even more people and he regresses? I think we could see some relief.    The QB room? As I understand it, Pickett was Canales’ choice. If we need to blame people for poo. In a sense, he is very Bryce like. So makes a good plug in. I get that a little bit. We still have the draft. If they do better than Jake Plummer or Hooker I’ll know they are trying.
