Blaine Gabbert: Some coaches put off by Gabbert

According to the National Football Post, a number of NFL coaches have been put off by the way Missouri QB Blaine Gabbert has conducted himself this offseason.

Based on the information he's gathered, writer Wes Bunting believes Gabbert could slide "a lot further than many think come April. Gabbert is still undecided about attending draft ceremony in April.

Same article had some less than flattering things to say about my guy also so I am staying out of this one.

The more scouts dig, the more I am finding they are turned off on Auburn QB Cam Newton. Citing that he’s a me first guy and has some real character flaws behind the scenes. One scout said he handles himself flawlessly in front of the camera, but when they are off he’s not the same guy.

for everyone that doesn't want full bias against any particular less than perfect QB prospect

what is with this site and not posting links for information lately?

thank you, Cracka, for actually providing the link.

this forum is funny. lately I've learned:

-if it's positive about Newton it's spin

-if it's negative about Newton it's spin

-if it's positive about Gabbert it's spin

-if it's negative about Gabbert it's probably the truth.

:D

We have had a lot of stupid smokescreen jokes. But this is actually an area were I would call smokescreen to both Newton and Gabbert.

I find it funny some anonymous scout suddenly feel the urgency to say anything to the reporters. Unless they have an agenda, maybe the dude is from the Bengals.

People need to stop talking about Blaine Gabbert. He sucks ass and there's zero indication that the Panthers would take him. He's about as irrelevant as Nick Fairley.

Yes...we should only talk about Cam. A run first QB who can't read defenses...can't make progressions. who takes off if his primary receiver is not open...who only takes snaps in the shotgun. Yes, he is the savior.

Like every other run first QB (Vick, Smith, etc.) that has come out....he is going to change the game. Guess what...he won't.

Unless he learns to be a pass first QB like Vick did (and yes it took 10 damn years for him to do that), he will be nothing more than a highlight reel that does not win poo.

That is all.

Agreed...this is the most depressing draft we have encountered since 96. Not even fun to discuss anymore :(

If only Luck wouldve declared, we would be split 50/50 with the Cammunists.

Cam lovers should stop arguing everything they say is not worth a damn because it's all a load of bias bullpoo. Only people not wanting a QB at all or aren't really lobbying for anyone seem to have the most useful information and perspectives. I would say the same for 'over hyped' Gabbert lovers but... there really are none on here.

    • I don't think they changed as much as you think between the INT and the final sack (immediate pressure with 4 linemen). They definitely stopped blitzing as much, if a blitz means rushing more than the front 4/5. They definitely did some exotic packages where they sent LBs/DBs and dropped linemen into coverage though. The fumble and INT were both blitzes. And yes they were successful. And yes, I agreed with Bryce not taking care of the ball. Really not many answers on those plays - just take the sack and live another play (unless you're Lamar). Which he didn't do. And no, you can't run prevent on the goal line. What's prevent defense to you? Alignment, personnel, cushion, etc.? Just curious. My reply was to the post that they sat back in some soft zone the whole game - until the end, when it mattered. That's not true. They blitzed, they disguised coverages and blitzers, they pressed, they bailed, they covered the flats, all of that. Not trying to argue. Just trying to inform. Actually they only blitzed once on the final drive, and the DB got away with a bad hold on Tremayne. Otherwise looked like it would have been a completion for a first down. The Cardinals' final drive defense looked a lot like the rest of the game.  I know it's easy to get upset after a lose (I'm guilty), but Mondays are when cooler heads prevail. Right? Emotions can make us seem like we don't know what we're talking about. The Huddle isn't supposed to be that. I always saw it as a place to go discuss the Carolina Panthers with more than the casual fan, and their emotionally charged opinions. I can get that at the local grocery store, where they don't know anything about NC/SC, let alone the Panthers. 
    • Poor guy went from the Ravens to this disaster
    • You have to make the best of it and find moments of happiness.  So, I picked up the Falcons D in my money league for this week.
