It's all about the QB's in the NFL now

Gone are the stud rb's that could carry 30 + times. There are some by why bother.

The wr's are also becoming a committee. Right now, the NFL is more and more what some would call a spread offense but I see it more as the Run and Shoot mixed with West Coast.

More teams are taking an NBA approach and trying to run ISO's(isolations) and find the mismatch.

Look at Pittsburgh. Are they a running team? Uhh no.

WR's and to some degree RB's are like middle relievers in the early 90's in baseball. Save your money in those spots and load up elsewhere. Money on your starter and your closer. See QB.

Of course the causes the other change, defense. Look for more of TCU's type defense and crazy hybrids to slow down the passing game.

Expect more 1st down blitzes to avoid 2nd and short which is a great passing down but puts the leverage in the hands..of the QB.

i'd kind of like to see a 5-2-4.

i know i have heard this before, but what person would you want where. explain it to me in detail and how it would be used any diff than the 4 3 with one lb playing the line. would you put

pep

lewis

kemo

tyler/johson

johnson/brayton/brown

I know there are alot of smart ass people on this bord myself included so i will say i am not trying to be smart here. I really just cant figure how you see that. Are you trying to do it to stop the run or as a way of hiding your blitz?

4-2-5

4= Normal D-Line

2= Jon Beason and other LB (Conner or Diggs maybe)

5- corners- Gamble and Marshall

safeties- deep= Godfrey (or Martin)

safety/OLB mix- Davis and Harris

I really haven't thought about that much and I'm not serious about it either. I just thought since we were throwing out all these defenses I would throw out the defense that a few colleges use including mine.

Not really, because the 4-2-5 is designed to be an every down defense, not just a pass situation.

I really think it would play to the advantage of both Harris and Davis, but I wasn't throwing this out there to be serious. Just fun to think about.

Everything runs in trends. The RB will be back one day but how they rules have been made the QB is king. One coach said when a QB drops back to pass he can do 3 thing and 2 are bad. Well not anymore with the crazy PI's and Roughing the QB calls.

      QBs that would cost next to nothing and are better than anything we currently have.

      By strato · Posted

      I am no football savant as has been demonstrated here over and over, but I saw it.  I went for years doing the mock draft thing and researching the players that we might get around our pick, time consuming stuff. And we would get to the draft and trade the pick. All that time, wasted.  So I quit doing that. Also realized I was not a scout and would never be a scout and went to looking the videos and reports After  we picked a guy.  Maybe I would look at the 1st round, but quit that too and just looked after we picked.    When they did that trade I saw Bryce and his size and just ruled him out. Then it got to yeah they are probably going to take him, I relented and looked at some video and got to his pro day. It took me all of a few minutes to see the issues. The footwork. The arm. And the tape of games? The backyard style. I knew, what can I say?  (Also, went down the physical checklist, not a single plus attribute on the NFL level. Arm, speed, size, etc, nothing to offset the negatives. nothing)  I think it was easy for me because I had not watched a single game he played in college,and wasn’t drawn in by the hype. Had no preconceived notions and just looked at it pretty clinically.  I got in here and everyone was going “but look at what he did in college! It is the SEC, if he can do it in the SEC he can do it in the NFL!” Couldn’t reason with hardly anyone.  I don’t think I could tell you which guy would succeed between two prototypical guys with great arms and athleticism, and have no special insight into any of that. My one calling in football scouting was to see the real about what we were about to do. And you still don’t know for sure until they get in a real game in the NFL.

      Miss Bryce sorely is possibly the most hilarious statement I have read on the Huddle in quite some time.

      He did only throw 1 pass 20+ in that game. I think he is still struggling to adjust to the NFL. At Alabama he was able to extend plays and play backyard football. That's not only not the style of offense we have been running but his physical skills don't lend themselves to that style of play at this level.  So, the amount of issues he actually has to clean up are WAAAAAY more than I anticipated as a guy that had Bryce #1 on my board in that draft class.  I am just not seeing a reasonable path for him to clean it all up and develop in a reasonable timeframe
