Darin Gantt: 'Do I Get a Finder's Fee for That Sh*t?'

Was going back through and watching the Post-Pick Pressers and check out what happens at about 5:30 on in the Lafell video... A friendly exchange between Hurney and the writers, a lot of giggling and laughing, and then apparently the cameraman forgot to turn the camera off...

Listen to Gantt as they stand up @ 5:55 "Hey, do I get a finder's fee for that sh*t?'

No offense to Gantt, but this is his second use of the s-word in media since we took Edwards. It seems he lost all awareness of boundaries after we took him.

Additionally, I've never seen Marty smile, laugh and look so giddy as he has since taking Clausen.

do you really care that he used that word after the presser was declared finished and everybody was getting up to go? does this matter in some way?

i agree though, hurney looks like he's constantly just about to burst into a big smile. it sounds like he was the top player left on their board for a looooooooooong time (maybe for over 24 hours). it says a lot about what they actually think of him. i hope he lives up to that.

    • Just to clarify: I'm not arguing that height or footwork can’t affect QB play. I'm asking how those concerns translate into measurable, consistent outcomes. That’s the standard we should be applying to all QBs, not just Bryce. If height is such a limitation, then we'd expect to see elevated batted passes or poor pressure evasion. Yet none of that shows up in the data. Bryce was one of the lowest in the league for batted passes and his 16.9 pressure-to-sack ratio is good enough for 9th out of all QBs with 300+ dropbacks. So if you believe footwork tied to height is a meaningful issue, what metric shows that because two that would aren't doing so? This isn't about denying flaws. It's about applying fair, consistent standards because otherwise we’re not evaluating performance which means that it's not analysis taking place... it's just going off of the vibes that somebody has consciously decided on. Citing one red zone play you remember doesn't provide that consistent standard. I don't say that to dismiss your memory, but to emphasize that anecdotal evidence (especially from an avowed skeptic) shouldn’t carry more weight than consistent tape or analytics. For example, there was recently dissonance over Bryce's deep ball accuracy where it was implied that he was inaccurate throwing 20+ yards. Yet, the data and film show otherwise. And I unfortunately have to still ask since you won't directly answer: What specific metrics do you believe matter when evaluating whether a QB is top-10? You've mentioned YPA and passing yards per game, and that's fair. If that's what you're prioritizing, then let's call that your criteria but clarity matters because it prevents moving goalposts when the data doesn’t match one's expectations. I appreciate the response and hope that your holiday weekend goes well also. ❤️
    • Me too. I got other things I can do. Tie it up 2-2 and I will be back, but Im tired of watching us get swept.
