You are correct that it’s unfair removing the last game. It’s equally unfair that you don’t consider his other starts down the stretch this year. When he plays well, it’s because of the team. When he doesn’t, it’s on him. It’s just not that simple in football.

This all damn day. Some want Sam as a backup or as a dude who can play until Corral/rookie is ready. Those wanting more from him…that’s a tough sell. You can’t respond to both these posters the same way. They aren’t the same lol. I’m Mr. Nuance so I know this type of stuff.

Good post. Much closer to the truth that the person you responded to People refuse to think with nuance and just look at stats with no context.

It probably shouldn’t matter as much as it will, but Young being the 4th QB selected, or the 1st could be just a matter of measuring 5’10” vs. 5’11” 3/4.

What exactly do you think I was trying to say?

It’s still so early. Remember the Willis to Detroit at #2 mock drafts? QB is treated so differently in the draft since it’s so important and you only play 1 on Sunday. This draft doesn’t have undeniable QB talent, but the teams picking at the top need QB. So I could easily see 4 in the top 10, all being “reaches” based on big boards. I can also see 2 of the top 4 QB’s, if not taken top 10, drop all the way to the 2nd round. And maybe 1 goes in the 3rd. You draft a QB to be the guy nowadays, not to develop, so after the 1st round, the question turns into “when do you value drafting a backup QB?” Teams wild rather go another impact position with their 2nd/3rd rounds. I think that can influence prospects taking a free fall at the QB spot. You are drafted to be the guy or not. And if you are drafted to be the guy, you are drafted early.

Thanks Dillon Nuntits.

Cheers to this. This scares the poo out of me.

He’s flashed. He might end up being a bust, but there has been enough malfunction in this organization’s leadership (and QB) that it’s not unreasonable to assume the jury is still out on not just Marshall, but many young players. That being said, Marshall isn’t stopping me from drafting another receiver by any means.

It’s gonna be okay bruv.

I’ve heard this too. That he likes receivers with size. Could be a breakout year for Marshall then.

Those cuts are something else, and he has a natural feel in space. Good first impression.

Although this hurts to hear, perhaps if he stayed we start off 3-2 instead of 1-4, and the team has more momentum and finishes with a similar record…and Rhule is still around sniffing his own farts. Let’s just thank Reddick and wish him well on Sunday.

What has Shaq done to be hated here? I mean there is a real shitty attitude toward him. If it’s the money he makes, how the fug is that his fault? If it’s because he isn’t legendary like Luke, how the fug is that his fault? He’s been a good leader, supportive of the coaches, and a decent performer. If you’re pissed, aim your poo at who's responsible.

As long as he and Reich had a good relationship, I almost expect it to happen. It would make too much sense.

I’m not sure how I would feel about Carr, but I do know that I hate the term “retread.” It’s just full of negative baggage.

Yeah highlights are a fun start. To see the flashes. But all snap videos need to be the next step. I think you and I both agree on the incredible ceiling he has. I watched a bunch of his snaps after you brought him to my attention.

You do yourself a disservice if you evaluate players off highlight videos.

Yeah man it was just so nice when we had Cam and the QB situation was figured out. I want to get back to that. QB purgatory SUUUUUUCKS. I am a fan of Corral before and after the draft, because I think he’s talented, and he showed me tools that could potentially get us out of QB crisis. He might not amount to anything in the league, but him being on the roster is only a good thing, and adding a rookie is only a good thing too. Having Reich and staff with a veteran QB, and two young talented QB’s (Rookie and Corral) sounds like the perfect situation for our franchise.

I guess what’s irritating to me (but always happens so I should ignore it), is when people poo on players before then even get a chance. Pre and post draft. Most drafts need a few years to see how they pan out. Players develop on different timelines. Most players are out of the league within their rookie contracts anyway. But sometimes people just need some patience. People called Icky a bust after week 1. It’s just bewildering to me.

To be fair, if we assumed every player would fail, we would be right more than we were wrong. Not saying that you are doing that now, but the odds of Corral being a long term starter are low as poo no matter how talented he is. Same will go for the rookie QB we most likely bring in. I just hope we hit on Corral or the rookie. Both would be awesome…then we can trade the other.

You know…it’s okay to say things like “maybe”, “perhaps”, “I don’t know yet”, “I’m not sure”, “we will find out.” The huddle could use a little of that speak. It’s at least honest.

You realize you are also projecting/making assumptions, but in the other direction right?
