You are expecting people to simply throw out his past performance because you think he has the tools and was in a bad situation.  We get it.  Thats laughable and if my posting of his stats is insulting then put me on ignore.  His stats are his stats and that motherfuger has no business playing for this franchise.  We are past the point of reclamation projects.  And if you are not using past data as an indicator for future performance then there is simply no helping you

Your problem is you focus on the person making the comment more than the fact that an opinion is just that--to call someone names where there is no correct answer, as much as you don't understand that, is juvenile.  So if I explain how stocks that have terrible track records are purchased for pennies on the dollar--that is because the company has good fundamentals and is projected to grow if the sector indicators change.  That is science--and it is NOT based on prior performance.  I even said you do not put all your eggs in this basket--it is part of the process because it is low risk, high reward if it works out.  I will provide another example:  In Charlotte, they offered high performing teachers from South Charlotte a $20K bonus to transfer to the most challenging West Charlotte schools.  These high-performing teachers struggled--most retired or resigned--did they forget how to teach?.  Yet the teachers from West Charlotte Title I schools were dramatically improved in South Charlotte classrooms, most averaging increased test scores by over 50 points--unreal "growth."   The Giants are one of those challenging schools.  Jones is one of those teachers with low test scores who moves to South Charlotte to teach.  So my point was you cannot rely on the stats from a hostile, negative environment to evaluate quality.  Is Rogers changing the world in NY?  Hell no.  Did he suddenly suck?  This concept requires an understanding of social and emotional impact on player development.  Jones has the skills to be good.  I am sorry you have to simplify everything to understand it.  If we sign Jones on the cheap and he sucks and we cut him, what have we lost?  If he feeds off the better OL and Running game and reaches his potential, we win.  Low Risk, High Reward.  It is a business decision--not some psychotic defending a loser--which makes it easy for you to attack.  If you don't understand the discussions in the gray area, I guess you might attack the person with an opinion that reflects what other teams and players have done successfully.  Not my job to educate you.  Sue your public schools for malpractice because they did not teach you to think critically and objectively.

This franchise has a pathological aversion to drafting/signing Clemson players. Never drafted one, and the signings are once in a blue moon, and they're never high profile guys.

But their fans simp for their players left and right. Regardless of how ill suited to the NFL they typically are.

    • I will as soon as you withdraw your fandom from the Patriots. Informative threads are great but all of these estrogen and emotion driven threads you start are ridiculous.
    • Will be there tonight and expect nothing from the Canes. They are soft and won't go after anyone, nor will they respond when, not if, Florida starts bullying them. Not to mention Freddie is in net. I fear this will be an ass-kicking.  
    • Is this not a bit contradictory?  Also surely if any of us are smart enough to evaluate what we're seeing in real time, a former NFL QB can at least manage the same.  Especially considering he's basing his analysis on hours (maybe generous?) of reviewing All-22 footage which he can play back over and over again, focusing each time on different position groups, match-ups, progressions, etc. which is simply impossible for a fan to fully assess in real time.  Unless you're actually at the game, we basically only get the QB/O-line in frame during the broadcast and even in that limited window of the field, there is simply too much happening.  I'm usually broadly focusing on Bryce, maybe peeping the footwork (or lack thereof) and just the overall pocket and whether there is any pressure coming.  I'm not able to watch every individual one-on-one o-line match-up on top of it to see who got beat, who didn't pick up a blitz, which o-lineman didn't shift to help double-team, or whatever else. I think the truth is somewhere in between (as is almost always the case).  Knowing the play call, audible, etc. is pretty important when judging individual performances, which is why we should always take PFF grades with a grain of salt.  But yeah we can also get a pretty good overall sense of how a player is performing just from watching the game on the couch on Sundays.  I still think there's a lot of value in a review video like this.  As long as you have the bare minimum media literacy to take the interesting insights while also acknowledging inherent biases from a video like this (i.e. obviously focusing on the good over the bad).
