 PLENTY of reasons to be critical of Dabo.    Plenty of reasons why they lost.  That coaching there at the end was fine.  You can’t let outcome dictate if it was big picture good decision making to put them in that really tight spot with a career kick.  It’s football.  Players play.  They pulled it off. 

You can blast Clemson for what did during those 4 quarters and leading into the season.  That’s where the game was actually lost

Beck is more talented but I'd take Haynes all day everyday.

This makes no sense.  Do you work in the Panthers front office? Haha.

Stafford was a SIGNIFICANTLY better pro prospect and it played at that way

Like above, this makes no sense.  How else would you rank QBs other than their ability to play the position at the highest level.

I was a better high school basketball player than Dennis Rodman.  That doesn't make me a better basketball player than Dennis Rodman.

If GT doesn’t get the kick off or shanks it wide right….then you would say it was well played.  Outcome doesn’t really matter sometimes.   A coach can be dumb and works out.  A coach can play something smart and it not.  

but have at it.  Doesn’t really matter.  I’m willing to finally start to admit Dabo is likely done….and not using those timeouts got zero to do with it

Clemson has the most talent in the ACC.

Lol... FSU and Miami would like a word with you.

Dabo refuses to adapt to the modern game and his team is falling off precipitously as a result. He will never coach a team with a player who makes as much or more than he does. If Dat Beaux can't be the king of the mountain, he'll take his ball and go home!

We're talking about college QBs here. How the project to the NFL in terms of what we're talking about is irrelevant. I mean, there are great college players like The Golden Calf of Bristol who most can watch them as they dominate in college and say yeah, that guy doesn't project to the NFL but damn he's a beast at this level.

Based on your logic, you cost Alabama a national championship refusing to yank Jalen Hurts for Tua who was the better QB at the time despite having a lower talent ceiling.

Um, because we are talking college football.   You essentially admit you are viewing in terms of how they project in the NFL and their future.   THAT makes no sense given what the convo is. 

it would have made you a better basketball player in HS than Rodman.   Tom Brady doesn’t get to be considered a college great because he is the NFL GOAT.

No, and i already explained why ITT... if GTs kicker shanks it, Clemp has the ball at midfield with a minute left to win the game rather than going to a wonky ass college OT where anything can happen.

Why did UGA use their timeouts at the end when Tenn's kicker had never kicked a game winner before in his life? You always take the chance to win it in regulation!

The original quote was "Haynes is the best QB in the ACC".  He's not.

If the quote had been "Haynes is the most valuable QB to his team in the ACC".  I'd not argue that.

Is the ACC in college? Then yeah, he is. 

Haynes is a better QB than Beck. Beck has a higher potential ceiling but Haynes is better than him right now.

You're confusing potential ceiling with current reality.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By frankw · Posted

      In 2025 Sam Darnold had over 1k more passing yards than Bryce Young on 1 less pass attempt. Repeat that to yourself several times and let it sink in. I absolutely love it when people come on here and invoke Sam Darnold like some gotcha. Darnold is the physical prototype for what anyone needs in a franchise QB. All the physical tools. Few people thought he would put it all together on the mental side of the position. He used to make some of the worst decisions you would ever see. At times in the past he made up for that with absurd throws and athleticism. But make no mistake whatsoever no matter how you feel about our starting QB. Bryce Young is a completely opposite conundrum. He lacks virtually any and all physical tools and athleticism and his elite processing is really mediocre at best on a good day and horrific on a bad day. These are realities people should have already been addressing instead of quadrupling down in year four.

      The nice thing about the timing of Bryce's contract at least is that it's going to match up with the 2027 Draft Class. No excuses, he either becomes Rams 2nd half Bryce year long, or we draft his replacement.  Nothing wrong with carrying Bryce on his 5th year expiring and a 1st round rookie waiting in the wings. Let the rookie sit until the trade deadline, deal Bryce to a needy team at the time, profit.

      Yeah they were bad QBs - but QB's that stayed on their teams for several years.  BY is better than all of those.
