I am going to say most of the top QB prospects are freaks to some degree. Pretty sure you don't want 'not a freak'.

Also just want to say, talk about defending every blade of grass, you might be playing against Mike Vick. 

And you'd better spy him so that takes another guy out of coverage.

And we thought he was small I think. He had those 'break me' little thin ankles that those fast people tend to have. 

I hated that guy. 

edit: and to parlay on to this, I am pretty sure Vick was one of the very few successful trading up high for a QB guys.

edit again: yeah he needed spying on so much that we took a guy 14th overall just to do that.

Yeah there's plenty of others, I was just giving Tr3ach a clip of the throw he was trying to remember. Unfortunately NFL is now cracking down on Twitter videos now that Musk monetized it so it's getting harder to find clips that will play embedded in the browser, any video stamped official NFL opens an X browser or takes you to the app now 

Good take with a bad video to match it. X stinks now which is saying a lot vs the Twitter standard pre-Musk. No worries here but I thought it was funny you showed 1 video out of many that didn't help prove your point.

vick was a freak; that's the point.

i've had masters level gross anatomy i can explain the concept of muscle insertion points and shoulder capsules to you at another time, if you'd like.

one of my favorite pieces of sports trivia is that vick was the number 2 highschool recruit coming out of virginia. the guy ahead of him was considered by many to be the biggest high school recruit of all time. without looking, who can remember who that was?

Ronald Curry. That Achilles ruptured completely changed him as an athlete. He was the #1 ranked recruit in football and basketball. Won the McD AA dunk contest and I can't recall him ever dunking a ball in college. Achilles tears eventually ended his NFL career where he actually became a pretty good WR and had one of the best TD catches o can recall. I think he ended up having three total Achilles tears. Speaking of anatomy, something had to be going on there.

Played at UNC with Peppers.

And don't touch him along the sidelines or that's another 15 yards. Vick put you in an awful spot as a defender. He could tightrope that sideline and if you pulled up he'd squirt down the field staying in bounds but if you committed to the hit he'd step out of bounds and get 15 more anyway.

peppers knew how to deal with that bullshit. rodgers had pulled it earlier in the game

    • Disclaimer:  In June, I am usually optimistic.  In October, a policeman with a bullhorn is telling me that I have a lot of life ahead of me and to think about my loved ones as I gaze down upon him from my rooftop.   Having said that, I think our offense (down the stretch) was good enough to play KC and Philly tough.  So how many games would this offense have won if they played the entire season like they did in November-January and if they had a better defense?   If you could stretch the last nine games over an entire season and put a solid defense on the other side, I see 5 wins becoming 7 or 8.  Down the stretch, the Panther D surrendered 30 points or more in 5 of the final 7 games and managed to win 2 of those 5.  If they can win 40% of games in which their defense surrenders 30 points or more, then the math indicates, had that been the case all season, the Panthers should have won 6 or 7 games with their defense surrendering 30+ points.   This season, we are much better at WR (TMac, Renfrow, Horn, and I expect XL to be a lot better).  Bryce is confident and now a leader.    The Achilles' heel of the 2024 defense, the DL, seems to be very solid.  We got back Horn and Jackson on the corners, Smith-Wade is improving better than expected, we signed a stud Safety.  Derrick Brown returns.  While the D is not there yet, it is going to be better.   So if we ended the second half of 2024 playing at a level that should have produced 6-7 wins, better WRs and a better defense could result in 9 wins or more.
