Does Ryan Mallett remind anyone else of Dan Marino?

Marino's selection status in the 1983 NFL Draft plummeted after a subpar senior season at Pitt, rumors of drug use[5] and rumors that knee injuries (resulting in four knee surgeries) were hampering his mobility. Five other quarterbacks (Ken O'Brien, Tony Eason, Todd Blackledge and Hall of Famers Jim Kelly and John Elway) were drafted ahead of him.

Just Sayin....

lol its funny but everybody on the huddle assumes all the Qbs in this draft remind them of Ryan Leaf or Jamarcus Russel. The Huddle knows all!!

Yet I still can't get the powerball numbers.

Something ain't right with this picture...

Dan Marino never won a SB, so I will take a rain check on Mallet.

Are you telling me that if you had to choose between, say... Marino and Dilfer to be your starting quarterback... you'd choose Dilfer? >.>

If I had the chance to get Marino on this team (...not Marino of today obviously) I'd do it, but I don't buy that Mallett is Marino.

in draft section, i just updated my draft by swapping first rounders with AZ and getting Green, then picking Mallet in the second.

I think he has the best arm and we do not need a QB in our system that thinks he is going to do any more than manage the game. Gabbert and Newton will want to be the star of the show rather than a game manager.

      Lil Stanky 100% in the dot tonight... And our 2nd line has been our best offensive line this season. Maybe our 2C really was on the roster this whole time...?

      BREAKING: Panthers re-signing Nick Scott

      By flagfootballcoach28 · Posted

      That’s a grade I kind of expected tbh. I’m not a huge fan of NS, but he’s not as bad as what the huddle says he is minus the horrible game he had vs the Rams. I’ve always thought he’s often used as a scapegoat. The improved pass rush should hide his deficiencies a little bit better if he’s the game one starter. FS might have to be a position we punt on this year unless Thieneman falls to us at 19. The reality is, you're going to have a few average players in certain spots for a team with as many holes we had before free agency started. You can’t sign everyone.

      I am by no means trying to say he's a world beater. I'm saying it's trending in the right direction. Especially when measured against himself.i think the team feel the same way or else they wouldn't have picked up his option. Plus I think there is a new idea in the NFL about these young QBs. Teams give up to soon. Browns gave up to soon on baker same with the jets on Geno and darnold. Maybe they are who you thought they were in the draft process and they need more time to develop than you originally planned. Either way. I do think he is as capable as darnold is as far as you can win a championship with him. And something he does have that darnold doesn't is he is clutch.  If I need one more drive and 2 mins to go I'm betting on Bryce and I am far from a homer, just going off his game winning drives. He has that dog in him on the last drive.
