  1. I have a tough time applying the term "educated" to anything Cowherd does.
  2. Being able to process and get the ball out quickly is better protection than mobility.
  3. I'm saying I don't care. The size correlation with things like lower body injuries aren't what scare me. Likely most others don't care either because the concerns are over the high impact stuff.
  4. Cowherd doesn't know jack sh-t. To be clear, I'm not tired of the discussion but Cowherd knows nothing.
  5. Those other types of injuries aren't the ones that concern people worried about Young's frame, though. It's the kind that happen when somebody slams into him with either high impact or a lot of weight. The data doesn't separate those.
  6. Oh, I've seen that. Specifically, some have said his deep ball accuracy suffers because his arm strength is a bit less.
  7. I think he's phenomenal. Hell, he's got all the qualities I love in a quarterback. Sadly, I'm also very concerned about his durability because of his frame. That's why I prefer Stroud.
  8. Fans like bold and ballsy. I prefer smart and careful.
  9. Haven't read the whole thread, but there's a factor here that I think is kind of important. Is this data about injuries in general or does it break them down by type? A big guy blowing a knee because he's too heavy or a runningback tearing a ligament cutting on bad turf is a lot different than a guy at quarterback (or any other position, honestly) getting knocked out by a crushing hit. That's the type of injury that scares people with Young. I doubt anybody's more worried about him blowing a knee because he's smaller. A concussion or a shoulder injury because he got crushed by a 300 plus pound DT though? Yeah. So unless we're breaking this down by types of injury, it's not as pertinent to the Young vs Stroud debate.
  10. Treating draft picks like a challenge is a good way to get yourself fired.
  11. The question though is how much better. As someone else mentioned, if the difference isn't meeting a significant threshold, you take the guy who doesn't have the durability question.
  12. Picking a quarterback to sell tickets is a good way to lose football games. Either way, I don't think Tepper is making the decision.
  13. 98.6 As to quarterback choices, like others I prefer Stroud but would be okay with Young
