At Christmas I went to a work party and met a guy who was all in on Steve Wilks as the perma-coach. We had a discussion and I disagreed. I explained my perspective on why we should move on, he shared his on why Wilks should stay. The conversation was civil. At no point did ask the man to step outside simply because our opinions differed because I'm not a petulant child. 

Yeah, asking him to step outside would have been the wrong move.

You should have waited till his back was turned then sucker punched him 😐

All wrong.  Look, we're on the INTERNETS!  You need the RAGE!  The petty insults!  The Passive Aggressive Arrogance!  Put them down!

Dude, this is is lamest as told on the internet but happened IRL story ever!!!

*SARCASM!!!!*

I've been on the internet for a long time (probably too much to be honest), and when I was a stupid kid - I would get legitimately mad at kids in chat rooms in the 1990s/2000s.  I look back on that dweeb I was and I laugh at myself for being such an internet moron.

That's why I try to be decent online.  My success varies, but I try to be myself.  Trolls have been around the webz for 25+ years, and if you can't handle them as an adult - time to get off the computer.  I tell my kids - Words are cheap, keystrokes are cheaper.

good call @Ricky Spanish

and @WUnderhill...he's gone. i mean he'll probably create another account and when that one shows up, we'll get rid of it too. 

Too bad a monetary charge can't be done (to support this forum) to make an extra alt because that could be a deterrent to slow down so many alts being made. But this could cause a dislike of that happening between all of the huddlers here.

If BY constantly gets injured like the OP says, it will wear him down tremendously and he won't get back to where he was. Look at Cam Newton for an example of that. It wasn't one injury that derailed his career (Watt hit was the straw that broke the camels back), it was seasons and seasons worth of wear and tear and before you know it, he goes from MVP to not being able to throw the football 15 yards anymore and off of the team.

 

but that can happen to any QB, regardless of size and it's impossible to discern who that will happen to because one group of QBs isn't more likely to have those kind of injuries than any other according to the data.

so what do we do? go ahead and draft and just hope that things work out or wait until the perfect unbreakable QB shows up and hope we're in position to draft him in that decade?

I've made that suggestion before

Threatening physical violence on folks in your own fanbase is as low as it gets. It's only football...

Ivory Panther and BriceYoung guy had a lot in common. And they aren't the only ones who engage in this behavior.

 

But it appears it's perfectly acceptable for @WUnderhill to call @BriceYung9 a coward? Or the posters that use mental illness as a slur? 

 

This place has that blood in the water attracting sharks vibe. Folks pile on needlessly. Attacking the poster, not the post is the way of the Huddle.

 

Empathy and common civility. Two qualities in short supply. Not only in the world, but up in here as well.

 

End rant. And thanks for listening. And Bryce Young is still too dang short.

Oh heaven forbid I make fun of a draft prospect. Especially one who can't sit at the big boy table. 

 

Within minutes I'm being shown the door for making short jokes about a short QB. Consistent, thy name is Hudde.

    • Have you seen the mock drafts lately?   Most of them have us taking a QB. Just because you aren't high on these QBs doesn't mean the Panthers or other teams aren't.   If you want me to be real I just think you a Tmac homer and all you care about is us drafting him. It's why you get so defensive when people mention other prospects.   Be open to other people's ideas. Nobody in this thread is saying anything bad about your boy Tmac. 
    • Oh good lord Interest doesn't mean interest in making a bad trade to take the player, that's why I had such a long post, to accurately describe why those are two different things, but you don't like to listen to that stuff.  Being interested in a player doesn't live in a vacuum. It's very simple... there isn't a #1 draft pick type of grade on any of these QB's, if there was, we'd just take them.  You can't bluff a pick everyone knows you won't make, and trying to trade the pick is the CLEAR signal that you're not taking the QB. Just because the Raiders would have interest, doesn't mean they're going to bail us out of a situation we don't want to be in, they'd be smart about it and just sit put, let us take a non QB as we'd be telling the world we're not taking one just by trying to trade the pick, and then they'd take him at #2 (either with their own pick or by trading less to get that one). Oh, and your point of "if nobody is willing to make the trade, you obviously just take the best QB" is quite literally the dumbest thing I've ever read on here. If nobody is willing to trade up to take the QB, then it's OBVIOUS that the QB isn't worth taking with that pick, so OBVIOUSLY taking the best QB there is just OBVIOUSLY stupid and a bad pick. The moral of it is if there is a QB worth taking, we're taking them and not making the trade.  If there isn't a QB worth taking there, nobody is trading up to #1 to take one, we just showed the NFL how bad of an idea that is 2 years ago, it's really not hard to see. You keep making up this mythical situation where there is a QB who has shown to be worth trading up to #1 for and we'll be able to leverage that into a trade.  But we're the most QB needy team in the league, if we end up with the #1 pick, either we are taking a QB #1 or no QB is going #1 unless we get VERY lucky and two teams in the Top 5 fall in love with one prospect and we can play them off each other and fleece one of them. But again, I can't see that happening, as if there was a QB worthy of that, we're just taking him ourselves.
    • Sanders is with Tom Brady brand and that's his mentor. The Raiders owner was with Sanders taking pics at a Vegas game together.   It doesn't take much to connect the dots that Vegas will be interested in Sanders as their franchise QB. Oh yeah and guess who hasa small ownership stake in the Raiders Tom Brady.   I guess this is just another made up Madden idea by me huh?
