IF we took Newton over Gabbert... Hurney should be fired. Happy Easter. Newton could not even remember a play call, just numbers.. he was all over the place, just not good. UGH!

IF we took? Did you go into the future and see that Gabbert was the pick. Or did you mean to say, IF we take? Past and present tense my friend. ;)

Also yes, the offense ran at Auburn was nothing more than numbers. If you do not believe me I can post proof. There for by saying 36 he could remember a play call. Just thought I would clear that up.

If you think using numbers to run an offense is stupid well then I have a surprise for you. I was reading the Bills boards and someone made a post of how Oregon runs their* offense. You know Oregon, the team that lost to Auburn in the championship.

So are the QB's for Oregon even less intelligent than Cam?

I kinda suspect "long tail" play calling involving dozens of random terms is pretentious, stupid, confusing and likely unproductive. And, more to the point, probably not used all that much, if at all, in games. I think that crap is mostly spouted off to amaze fans.

    • I guess so. Don't think I was involved with previous discussions.  Tepper is one of the newest owners in the NFL. Dan is going into his 3rd season as a GM - ever. Dave is going into his 3rd season as a HC - ever. Before becoming a HC, he was an OC/playcaller for one season total. Idzik is about to go into his 1st year as a play caller - ever. WRs are rookies, sophomores and 3rd year guys - though the experienced 3rd year guys are XL and Coker (who has missed a ton of games). TEs are guys going into their 2nd and 3rd seasons, and Tommy Tremble - though Sanders has missed a ton of games. QB has played 3 years. Chuba is an experienced RB, but Brooks and Etienne have taken very little snaps at the position. O-line is more experienced vets with some talent - which is HUGE. Need them to stay healthy. I mean the offense is very young in every aspect except O-line. You see it differently?
    • I said this ALL last season and will say it again this year. Our record means diddly squat this year, I don't care if we have 0 wins or 17 wins, I only care about one thing and one thing only. Bryce proves without a shadow of a doubt that he IS or ISN'T our long term solution at QB. It's the only thing that matters for the same reason it sucks that this is the same thing as last year.  This needs to be determined, and if they can't determine it, then it's still telling the team the answer, just not the one they want to hear. As right now we're in the ultimate QB purgatory, a position that dooms franchises for years.  Just look at a team like the Cardinals, who extended a better QB and it still screwed them over and haven't had a contending team in a long time. People get too caught up on wins and losses when evaluating players, particularly QBs.  When people look at the final record and use that as a reason to want to extend a QB or not is just a fools errand.  If we had lost 2-3 more games last year because we didn't make a last second FG, I genuinely wonder if we would have just moved on from Bryce this offseason (like we should have been doing anyways IMHO).
