Rolo Tomasie Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 (edited) This is important perspective for this thread.....Any board poster who thinks they can determine a college QB's future NFL performance, and specifically their ability to be accurate, go back and watch this Patrick Mahomes game from 2016. Especially the first quarter/half. How in the hell do you extrapolate that this weird looking, no-neck kid chucking bad passes behind and ahead of receivers, will eventually be one of the best, most accurate NFL quarterbacks of all time?

It's all about the coaching. Andy Reid and everything associated with his tree is amazing. That's why getting that right is so important in the NFL. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll get to pick up one extra random potential starter, a couple of extra special teamers, and get an extra 1st round pick next year in a ****ty QB draft.

Est.1974 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 One from last year… Russell Wilson is touting Dan Quinn as an "amazing soul'' as the Denver Broncos QB offers his thoughts on the team's search for a head coach. "Dan Quinn, I know him personally,'' Wilson said, via the Denver Gazette. "He's an amazing coach ... an amazing person, an amazing soul, great leader." 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 I put some of this on the draft thread too https://www.si.com/nfl/2024/02/01/senior-bowl-bowers-penix-nix-draft-qb 1. The quarterback questions are legitimate It’s an almost universal opinion that USC’s Caleb Williams, North Carolina’s Drake Maye and LSU’s Jayden Daniels are going to be the first quarterbacks taken in the draft, and potentially as the first three picks. After them, Oregon’s Bo Nix and Washington’s Michael Penix Jr. are likely next in line. As I wrote Wednesday night, that remains true, but the duo isn’t doing itself any favors here in Mobile. While each put up massive numbers in the Pac-12 this year, there are real questions surrounding both. Nix struggled at Auburn for three years, throwing for a combined 39 touchdowns against 16 interceptions while never eclipsing 2,600 passing yards in a season. At Oregon, playing in a much more quarterback-friendly scheme, his numbers skyrocketed. In 2023 alone, he threw for 4,508 yards, 45 touchdowns and three interceptions. In Mobile, Nix occasionally struggled with accuracy and getting the ball out. Considering his lack of chemistry with the receivers, some of that was understandable, but it still raises questions. The same is true of Penix, who played four injury-marred seasons for Indiana and produced very little. Then, surrounded by a better scheme and elite receivers, Penix blossomed into a star, registering 67 touchdown passes and more than 9,500 yards over the past two campaigns. Ultimately, with both quarterbacks facing questions of whether they or their schemes deserve more credit, and considering their ages are a concern (Nix turns 24 years old in February, as does Penix in May), this week hasn't helped either of their draft stock. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd replace Penix with McCarthy. IMO Penix is going to fall due to his injury history, age, and poor showing in the championship game. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo-toni Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 We could follow the Cardinals example and draft Marv Jr and sign Russell Wilson. People were sure Warner was washed up, Boldin is on about the same level as Terry McL, and Harrison Jr is supposed to be the next Fitzgerald...just a thought. I don't have any confidence in a Quinn staff developing a QB, unless maybe he lands McDaniels. By the way, what about taking Tulia Tagovailoa in the later rounds? He's looking good in the Shrine bowl, but I never watched UMD football. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Riggo-toni Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 The Pats won 10 games with Mac Jones and 11 with Matt Cassell when he was OC. Both QBs sucked afterwards. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Command The 414 Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 I will say this about Josh McDaniels.. he’s a way better OC then HC and the advantage of him here would be no matter how good he’d do here as a OC… ain’t any team calling him for a HC opening, so that’s a concern we’d never have to worry about…. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d need to call some builder friends of mine and volunteer to help with demolition. the combo of styles Maye and Daniel’s represent make it extremely unlikely that the new front office would dislike both. Personally, I favor Maye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
