Davidson Deac II

Assuming he is good enough to actually have any control on where he goes. I mean he does have 23 total passes in his long and storied NCAA career, but I think NFL scouts might need to see a few more before anointing him the next great thing.

Is Florida a cupcake? I know they aren't top five SEC, but they are at least at or above VT level.

I agree, if you read the whole statement, not that bad. Just basically said we have to do our jobs regardless of what is called.

I had the wrong one. Its this one. Chiefs win on walk-off FG after crucial 4th-down penalty on Bengals - ESPN Video

Meh, what he said wasn't that bad. And its accurate.

It was a train wreck after two quarters.

No one knows how a college player will do until the suit up on Sundays. That is true no matter how many talking heads call a player a generational talent. Most of the guys that are elite were not considered elite prospects. Patrick Mahomes was drafted behind Mitch Trubisky. Tom Brady was a 6th rounder. Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson were both drafted behind Sam Darnold. And Jackson was also drafted behind Josh Rosen. I have watched Cam Ward and the guy makes all the throws we would want, and for the most part, isn't used to having a loaded team around him. Have no idea if he will be a elite NFL qb, or even a average NFL qb, but given the circumstances, I think he has as good a shot as anyone in the draft.

I loved Cam when he was here, 2015 was special. But unless his arm has magically 100% healed, we won't win with him.

I agree. This season was about hoping we could see something from Young. I think that ship has sailed. Now it's about seeing what we have the other young players. For example, the receivers, and maybe Brooks when he finally gets ready. And we won't do that with Young.

We expected the defense to be bad this year, as they focused on the offense in the off season. And the defense wasn't great today. But they did enough today to give us a shot at winning or keeping the game close with an adequate offense. And aside from a bad punt, the special teams did ok today.

Perhaps, but even when he isn't jumping, when he has clear vision downfield, he still just makes bad throws. He can't throw well on the run, especially when moving forward. He can't read blitzes. I just don't see anything that might give us one iota of hope.

Like Bryce Young, Justin Fields, etc... Who are the elite qb's in the NFL right now. Mahomes, Allen, Lamar Jackson, Herbert, Prescott (sometimes), the list is debatable I suppose. But the only qb that is currently considered elite that came from one of those big programs is Burrows. CJ Stroud might make it in if he continues to improve. But personally, I prefer to take a chance on someone who excelled with lesser talent around him, against teams that were more physically talented.

With Dalton, I think we could win 3 or 4 games. There are some pretty horrible teams in the league, and we at least have a solid oline and I think a solid group of receivers. But our qb play is so horrific that it doesn't matter. Regarding getting the number one pick, I am not sure that is a good thing. Most of the elite qb's in the league were picked a little later in the first round. And we haven't exactly shown that we can make good selections. Might be better off being forced into picking someone who is not our guy.

Other than his name, I don't get the obsession with Manning. I am not sure I want yet another qb from a loaded program that makes qb's look better than they actually are.

Fwiw, I think I would rather have Jayden Daniels than Caleb. He certainly looks good today. We definitely missed on Stroud.

They didn't hit him much in either game. I know Bryce got sacked once by Bosa, and that was with Bryce on the move. I watched the Aints Cowgals second half, so I don't know much about the second half of our game.

I hate the Cowgals more, so I am ok with it.

I heard the radio team (Jake Delhomme mainly) say that Young practiced well. I have heard that many times about Bryce. I guess the old saying, you play how you practice is not always true.

I was really hoping the Cowgals defense would allow 50. Doesn't look like it will happen though.

Fwiw, the defense looks worse, although our opponent probably has something to do with that. I mean the Saints offense looks dominant. The offense looks the same as it did at the end of last season. Well, except that Bryce is mostly getting time. I rarely agree with this statement when its made, but I think in this case, its 100% accurate. Bryce is the problem.

I think the answer to that would be obvious. You aren't playing Vanderbilt. You aren't on a team with far less talent than your team.

Saints with 41 points against the Cowgals in 3 qtrs.

We could have Bill Walsh reincarnated, and I don't think it would matter a whit. Can't win in today's NFL with qb who can't throw anything more than a 5 yard pass to a rb.

The saints are making the Cowboys defense look as bad, or maybe even a little worse than ours.

If you look at Bryce the last half of last year, its about the same. The difference is that everyone in the league knows bryce now. They sit on the short stuff and don't worry much about anything down field.
