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.

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
