Hey, I'd rather be overly excited and optimistic about the season than always doom and gloom like some crusty c unts who are scared to be happy.And the kool-aid starts gushing.
He’s ranked 21 by Phil Steele for draft eligible QBs. That won’t even get him drafted.
Phil Steele is a college football analyst, not an NFL draftnik. Josh Allen was drafted in the 1st round because of his physical skill set, not because of his performance or statistics in college.
Another example: There were scouts saying Mahomes shouldn't even be drafted and he was the second QB taken in the draft that year. There are a ton of opinions out there.
Skills are no where near Allen’s.
Allen is 6'5" 237 lbs... Montez is 6'5" 230 lbs
I’ll mark you down for Montez as Round 1 pick. May come true with substantial improvement.
Ha, I never said he was going to be a first round pick; just that he has the physical tool set in the same way Josh Allen did.
I'm not convinced making 3-4 reads on every play is going to be a prerequisite for an NFL QB going forward. The NFL is quickly adopting college passing concepts, and QBs coming from spread and even air raid-type offensive systems are going to become the norm, IMO. I honestly wouldn't be surprised if in the next few years we see offensive plays being signaled in from the sideline, ala college with the 3 backup QBs, or big poster cards. Just my bold prediction.
Eliot has to make a huge jump that nothing in his past shows is within his skill set. Chev has to be there in his first turn at the wheel. That's a **** ton to ask, for sure.
Call me crazy, but I think it would help us to knock UA's starter out in the first quarter...this year.
Pro QBs have ear pieces. What does a pro QB really do anymore anyway?
NFL OCs want to control everything. I miss the 70s and 80s before Bill Walsh revolutionized offense - back when the QBs called their own plays from the huddle. The huddle made that delay between plays better, too, because there was actual substitution and movement. The current trend of going straight to the line and then using the entire play clock to evaluate the defensive personnel and get a feel for whether they're in man or zone before snapping with a second or two on the clock -- that's about unwatchable to me. Peyton Manning offenses were the worst. Like watching a chess match instead of a football game. But now it's the same Peyton crap but without the players being the ones who are strategizing and being creative. Instead, it's the coordinator orchestrating like he's playing a video game. No reason to even hire football people as OCs these days. Would be better to hire someone who won a competition of Madden with play calling and audibles turned on but with the actual game play on AI.
That’s exactly what I’m talking about! Like, yuck.
You started off strong, but really faded toward the end in this one, nik.
Hey, it's cool that you like watching chess. I tend to enjoy watching football with better pacing that's more about QBs being gunslingers and offenses more about athletes making plays.
I was referring to the last line of, "No reason to even hire football people as OCs these days. Would be better to hire someone who won a competition of Madden with play calling and audibles turned on but with the actual game play on AI". Tini could not be an OC at any level.
