  1. No, and there are others who don't have elite accuracy. What he did have was a once-in-a-lifetime body that carried him for...a grand total of FIVE seasons. He started breaking down in year six BECAUSE he didn't have elite accuracy. He was great...at running. When he lost that, he was no longer great. Young looks like he will have a solid career if he can get with a team with some weapons. As far as pure talent, Young just doesn't have Drake Maye's God given gifts.
  2. To be great in the NFL, a QB has to have elite accuracy. For instance, Brees is small but had elite accuracy. Maye has elite accuracy. Young never has. Most who paid attention before the draft, knew this already.
  3. I beginning to think/believe the Fitterer hire is the equivalent of organizations throughout the league who have attempted to use New England as their blueprint. That is, hiring away NE coaches and executives expecting NE magic. When, in fact, there is only one Bill Belichick and Tom Brady. Fitterer, as we know, came from Seattle. And we are seeing that you simply can't dupicate Pete Carroll and Russell Wilson. Bottom line: It looks like Fitterer is nothing special.
  4. How about the last 25 years. This organization has never had back-to-back winning seasons and it's David Tepper's fault? I have no idea how the Reich/Fitterer partnership will work out. But to the owner's credit, he has done what needs to be done the past six months -- spend the money it takes to try to put together a solid front office. There are no guarantees. I'm hoping it works out.
  5. This is a response to several who are saying the Richardson has the highest ceiling and can be developed. I have no idea how good he will be. But I am sure of one thing: elite accuracy cannot be developed. It's God given. He may develop into a really good NFL QB. But he will never have elite accuracy.
  6. OK. Whatever you say. Defense has nothing to do with championships. Your definition of real deal and mine are different.
  7. Where have I said there isn't a difference? I know the ACC sucks. I too wish he had transferred because I think he's gonna get hurt behind UNC's line. But none of that has anything to do with his raw talent. Accuracy, Athleticism, Intelligence, Toughness, Height, Competitiveness. Yes, he's at the wrong school. But he'll be a Top 5 draft pick next year. He'll shine at the combine
  8. AGAIN, the single WORST defense I have ever seen. Do you understand how football works? The quarterback doesn't have anything to do with the defense. Again, I've watched football for 60 years and, in my memory -- and I could wrong -- I've never seen a QB have anything to do with the defense.
  9. My guess is you didn't watch any UNC games. I watched every one. Without him, they would have been 3-9. The games they won, he virtually won singlehandedly. Their defense was the single worst defense I have seen in my 60 years of watching football.
  10. I can't give you chapter and verse but I do remember his 2021 injury was hamstring while he was running the ball. Had nothing to do with size and being hit. Anyone else remember CMC being "knocked out" of a game?
  11. I've been going to games for a long time. I remember when I was in college in 1977, I went to the Final Four in Atlanta. UNC's Mike O'Koren had a career game against UNLV scoring 31 points. That ONE game on the national stage paved the way for his being an All-American from '78 to '80. I saw nearly every game in his college career. The point: He was good but not that good. That ONE game stayed in the minds of people nationally who didn't see him game in and game out. His NBA career proved he was an average player. The question: I saw a lot written about Stroud in the fall, people saying never take an Ohio State QB because of their NFL track record. There were lots of questions about him in the fall. Then came the Georgia game and the question is: Is that who Stroud really is? Or, did he simply have a career game on the biggest stage, like O'Koren?
  12. I thought Hurney was also involved and Tepper listened to him at that point in time.
  13. Agree. Cam, Lamar Jackson, Fields, etc. Great players. But due to their running, short shelf life. Rather have someone who is an elite passer who can run if he has to.
  14. The Eagles scored a grand total of three points in the second half...until the very end. The OL that dominated all season, for what ever reason, was a no show in the second half. Hurts had no time to do anything in the second half.
  15. UNC went 9-5. Without Drake Maye, likely 3-9. Nearly everyone who watched every game, which I did, says the same. He has all the tools. What he lacks is an offensive line and a coaching staff. Dropping in the draft next year won't happen.
  16. You left out Andy Reid vs. his old team. They will talk about that 'til your absolutely sick of it.
  17. Wilks should have been Day One: We are going offense. All winning did was screw getting a QB. My guess is Stroud will be available at 4, 5 or 6.
  18. Agree. Same with Bill Walsh with Montana in Round 3. But...I do believe that Andy Reid drafting Mahomes was Reid recognizing something others didn't. And then developing him. It CAN be done.
  19. I understand that this will likely never happen but... After the Eastland Mall fiasco and the Rock Hill fiasco...and Tepper and his wife are leading the interview process...What is the world would give anyone confidence these interviews are going well? Tepper's wife? Are you kidding. This has all the markings of a Rankin Smith, Robert Irsay, Bill Bidwell, Ted Stepien, Donald Sterling and Daniel Snyder ownership group. An absolute cluster #$%^. IF this guy Tepper was truly interested in winning, he would have found a "seasoned football guy" to run the show not his @#$%^&* wife. (I know she isn't running things but you get my point). So, here's my question for those who know more about how the NFL works than do I: Is there any rule that would stop Tepper from hiring John Lynch away from the 49ers and giving him the title "President and General Manager"? That would be a promotion from what he is doing now. Right? That's what Joe Robbie did in 1970 when he hired Don Shula away from the Colts. He gave Shula a great deal. It worked.
  20. Concerning Wilks, in my opinion, the biggest indictment against him is the 21 play, 91 yard, 11:43 drive engineered by MITCH TRUBISKY. Let me repeat that: Mitch Trubisky! Steve, you simply COULD NOT allow that to happen in what turned out to be your biggest game as head coach. I will cut him some slack on the Buc loss due to the injuries. But not the Steeler game. His coaching life was on the line in that one. He flunked.
  21. Great point. I should have done my research.
  22. It's amazing to me that the Bengels have been horrible forever. And then...right when they get Burrow, they have a great defense.
