Mr. Scot

That's a consequence of the coaching change, though.

To me it's just overblown. I'd put it this way. Is a guy who runs a 4.4 really all that different in game speed to a guy who runs a 4.6? Every year we ooh and ahh about the fastest guys at the combine but how many of those guys actually wind up having memorable pro careers? I know it's "a game of inches" and all but it isn't always the guys who put up the stats that become the best players.

Used to be if you were a dumbsh-t, maybe a dozen people at most knew about it. These days you can let the entire world know you're stupid

Latest word is they're gonna keep him on the right...at least until Corbett gets back

Given the high variance in level of competition at the college level, it's really hard for me to trust college stats much at all.

We don't really know yet how our current corps is going to finish or how the college crop will end up looking. Definitely too early...

Couches are more flammable (at least on Saturdays)

After one game? Hell, it's still too early to truly judge last year's class still yet. And that's not even factoring in the that the coaching changes mean we're looking for players to fit different systems.

That'll change in about four weeks.

Staley looked like a boy wonder for about a season but the carriage turned back into a pumpkin real quick.

Working on it 🫥

I get it, but I'm not a big fan of stats as an evaluating tool. Stats give you guys like Tim Couch, Timmy Chang and such. If you don't look at the context, you get fooled. That's why I've always preferred the eye test to stat measures. It's the old Mark Twain line about liars, damn liars and statisticians.

No more so than everyone is Kevin White.

Yeeeaah...That's not how a West Coast Offense works, and it definitely isn't anything like Frank Reich or Thomas Brown's MO. Hell, anybody who watched this past Sunday's game ought to know that.

That depends on who's doing the evaluating. You've got ideas and opinions as far and wide as Andy Reid to Jim Irsay, so it's kind of hard to generalize the NFL as a whole.

And this is...uuummm Wow

Our current head trainer has been on staff since 2013 as an assistant. He was promoted when Ryan Vermilion followed Rivera to DC. Vermillion is a story in himself

Interesting take I'd still want the threat of a deep ball at least, but receiver YAC is part of a typical WCO anyway.

Clarification...

Well, this is classy The video... Guess I don't "understand the journey" either

Laughed out loud at the audience member joke

Pretty much every OL guru will tell you that left guard is easier to learn than right guard. It's generally considered the easiest position to play on the line. Factor in also that it's the spot he played in college.

Anderson got a big bump from Seifert at the Senior Bowl but it wasn't deserved. Also anybody drafted in 2011 not named Cam Newton (though Kealoha Pilares at least did something).

Collins was on a PUP list before he was let go so I don't know if that's practical.
