top dawg

I mean, Goff was never all that bad in the first place, just young and unseasoned from what I recall. McVay was supposed to be this wunderkind coach also, so what's the deal? It could be simply a lesson in being impatient, or maybe just striking while the perceived fire is hot. On kind of an off note, they went in with their eyes wide open. Some people said that they were going to have to pay for the deal once all was said and done. They won a chip, now the chickens have come home to roost. It's the cost of doing business...their way.

My thing is that more than a few people were putting Baker on a pedestal (sometimes based on laughable evidence), just totally overlooking his obvious deficiencies in their zest to label him as the best thing going, much like Rhule did. People here did it, and the writers did it. Only a few were calling him on his bullshit then, but everyone wants to heap on now. As for me, I didn't hate the deal, as much as I hated what it ultimately meant for Corral. The fact is, the deal wasn't bad from a real capital or a draft perspective. I think that it ultimately led to the serious stunting of Corral's development, maybe even irreparably (but hopefully not). As for how it ultimately affected our draft position, Baker's presence actually didn't do a thing, and may have even helped. Honestly, it's time to move on from Rhule in every respect. That experience and the Baker experiment here are over. I'm sure that his next coach and the corresponding fan base will be much more realistic in regards to how they judge and value Baker relative to their own situation and QB room.

So many people were so wrong about Baker, and it wasn't just Rhule. I think that it would behoove many to just let the Revisionist History Express ride on by.

Yeah, @Basbear explained it (albeit using an analogy). I totally overlooked that angle from Seattle's perspective because of Geno (and Lock to a lesser degree).

Why would Seattle do it?

He asked to be released.

My first choice. Football gods answer my prayer!

He didn't want Rosen at all. He wanted Allen.

I thought I'd get a woman's translation, a mature mom of a 24 year old young man, but a woman's perspective nonetheless. I read this to my wife, and she said that they can't be married or he wouldn't have thrown in the part about the "title" she carries. My wife also said that it's obvious that he screwed another woman. She also said that Moore is "sorry until the next p***y he slips in." She also advised the girl to get hers, and said that Moore is on the hook for child support if he doesn't know how to act. As for the public apology, she thought it was "stupid." She said that he's trying to appease her with a public apology. She said that the only thing that's going to appease her is his fidelity, and that he didn't need to go public in order to be faithful, as that's squarely on him. He's the only one that can control that. Do better, D.J.! Put a ring on it and be faithful if this woman, relationship and family is all that you say.

Stetson FTW!

How ironic.

Possibly. Possibly not. I've never seen a working crystal ball. But I have seen star players---even star QBs, like Rodgers and Jackson for example, and probably even Fields from the looks of things, taken later in the first round. I've seen plenty of flops too. That's how this stuff works, grasp it or not.

The players will never ever play to lose. I don't see why a mature football fan just can't seem to grasp that truth and accept that the chips are going to fall however they fall. A "meaningless" win does not exist for professionals.

I would love for this place to be rattled. The entertainment value alone would be well-worth the pick. The question is the round. In general, I don't think that it's a good idea for us to be turning our nose up at any QB with upside.

Parody account. https://www.google.com/amp/s/huskercorner.com/2022/11/29/nebraska-football-fake-spencer-rattler/amp/

Meh. It's fodder for those who are anti-Jackson for whatever reasons. Bottom line: Barring injury, Jackson's gonna get paid by some NFL team regardless, and the now-deleted tweet will have---uh, I don't know...ZERO bearing on that

He may still be QB1 foe this draft (depending upon whom youj talk to), but not really the frontrunner anymore. https://www.si.com/college/2022/11/27/caleb-williams-usc-heisman-moment-notre-dame

I'm open to him, but he's going to need work making the transition to the NFL just like all of these guys. I haven't seen the guy that I'm willing to trade a king's ransom for in this upcoming draft. I don't believe that Stroud, Young, Levis or anyone is going to come in tearing it up.

I don't know where you guys get off saying that Fields isn't impressive when everybody on ESPN has been calling him very impressive for the last month. I just don't get it. I'm not trying to be funny, but ex-QBs, ex-coaches, past players and all the analysts are contradicting every Huddler that has said something like you regarding Fields in November. And when you look at what's happened, they're right to contradict that attitude. Even one that is being critical of some hyperbole going on surrounding Fields is also cognizant of the fact that Fields has still been impressive. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.windycitygridiron.com/platform/amp/2022/11/14/23458954/chicago-bears-hyperbole-problem-justin-fields-analysis-media-coverage-quarterback-data Basically, I think that y'all need to chill on the Fields-is-not-impressive talk. For me, it's just another lesson as to why you shouldn't judge these young guys (and sometimes older guys like Geno) prematurely. Context and circumstances do matter.

Well, listening to different shows on ESPN, Staley's seat isn't exactly cool. It's some of his in-game decisions that's the issue, and the fact that the Chargers can't get over the hump despite talent on both sides of the ball.

That's sarcasm...right?

That chatter was unsubstantiated, and not by Shananhan.

Hey I'm not anti-Levis. I'll just have to learn more, see more and otherwise do research. For me, it's all about traits and projection, but I also realize that it's ultimately guess work.

Dude, they aren't trading Hurts. Not gonna happen!
