Let's talk about the Will Levis hate

Apparently Nick Saban has now entered the chat.

Recently, while talking up Bryce Young, he made a statement about larger quarterbacks with lesser skills that's being perceived as a shot at Anthony Richardson.

The article featuring the original quote is here:

To be clear, he doesn't mention any names. The physical description does fit Richardson but it could also be kinda generic.

In the wake of Richardson's Combine performance though, this is how people are taking it.

 

These quotes feel like they can fit both Richardson and Levis tbh.

The perception that it's a shot at Richardson is because of his Combine hype. And yeah, Richardson is being hyped up way more than Levis right now.

I don't know that it's directed at either of them though. When I read the description, it just sounds like a generic, hypothetical quarterback.

(my guess would be that if Saban is asked about these comments, that's probably what he'll say)

It’s true but the same mental issues pop up in 2021 a lot which is the disheartening part.

The Panthers have an excellent resource on that front in Thomas Brown's connection to Liam Coen.

I'd be willing to bet that conversation has already taken place, but if not I'm sure it will.

Gotta say, I'm surprised this is all you have to say in here!  Was probs the most interested to see your response given the nature of the thread.  

It’s been a hell week at work and it’s my birthday. Haven’t Had a chance to really dive in. Plus I eat up a lot of space in these threads… need to give people a chance. Haha

 

I’ll be coming in hot next week while I’m off work all week.

Bring the heat! I wanna see what you're seeing with him so I can be hyped if he's the pick.  You offer good counter perspective.

I always saw you as more of a 3-tech than a true 0-tech 😐

(happy birthday; mine is this month also)

I hope to do an indepth breakdown next week with screens and descriptions. As an example for those on here who are saying that Levis can't read the field:image.thumb.png.bf6506029ebe2bb7b4aa39a557093527.png

As JTS calls out here, WL is already making this throw before the reciever even makes his cut. He sees that the defense is running a C3-Cloud Zone coverage which leaves the middle of the field open with how the SS has his back turned to the hash marks. 

3 easy reads from this single play:
1. WL can read a defense
2. WL can throw to an anticpated player being open
3. WL's footwork has drasticaly improved but still needs work from this screen. Hopefully it continues.

Sure, you can say : it's just one play. However, if you can do it one play you can do it every play with the right coaching. This is why Reich is rumored to be about WL. He knows he can coach him. Im sure McCown thinks it too.

Mine is the 29th of March.  I apologize in advance for the blocked roads and traffic, but the people need their parade.

The jimmies will be rustled. That does sound like someone else we know.

Anthony Richardson says hello and hes loved and overrated by the media and the huddle based on 2 of those 3 things.  Levis had good tape last season with a different OC.  Its silly for people to boil everything down to race.

Happy birthday, Casillas.  Enjoy your week off work.  I have one coming up in a month, and I may survive until then.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
