I am truly baffled by all this Grier starting talk.  For context, I'm a WVU college football fan and I think Grier can develop into a decent starter long-term or at least a competent backup.  But there is absolutely no reason to think he is ready to start this year.

Kyle Allen has earned the right to start these final 8 games with Cam being out, and this is the best path forward for everyone.  The team needs to evaluate what we have in Allen, and that is independent of Grier IMO.

I still think a truly healthy Cam is our best option, but I'm also objective enough to realize Allen has played at a decent level, and showed some major improvement last week.  The Titans defense is not the Cardinals.

It's embarrassing that some people want to portray our QB situation as one where you have to either support Cam and bash Kyle or vice versa.

I don't know if Allen or Grier is going to be the guy long-term.  Grier is going to go into next season as backup at best, just like Allen did this season, and as he should given their respective performances so far.

Allen and Grier both still have trade value, as done Cam.

Anyone that tells you how everything is going to play out at QB over the next 9 months is lying.  There are simply too many variables at the moment.

I am going to support Kyle Allen and hope he can help guide this team to the playoffs.  What happens after that is completely up in the air.

Grier has fundamental issues with the way he throws the ball that need to be fixed. If he can do that he can actually probably be pretty good, but this takes time.

 

He’s Touchdown Jesus.  You don’t worry about mechanics.  You just trust in the magic of the beard. 

I mean I don’t want Allen to implode so that we see Grier.  But I mean at the same time....I want to see Grier too.  Just curiosity really.  Always have it about guys

Hey everyone!  Look at this idiotic super reasonable and good  take!  Do you even huddle bro?  This post needs a lot more crazy to it.  I also didn’t see a single sentence where stated who you hated the most.

Sometimes you might want to read that to yourself before you hit send.  Not that there anything wrong with that.

LOL.  Yeah, bad wording upon reflection.  Pie for the Seinfeld reference too.

Changing throwing mechanics is a risky path......often results in an injured foot.

I'd advise Grier to go forward with the throwing motion that brung him.....

      Serious Thoughts Fellas What numbers would Bryce..

      By MHS831 · Posted

      Yes.  And this converts directly to confidence.  Does the coach have confidence to call a deep dig or seam route?  Does Bryce have confidence in his ability to be the Alpha?  Do his teammates have confidence.  About film--when I see Cam Newton's pre-snap confidence vs. Bryce's, it is night and day.   Film--tells you if the WRs are open (why l love watching the Replay telecasts from the end zone cameras--you can see it.  I have seen 2 WRs open and Bryce's eyes are on the outlet WR or the pass rush. )  You can see progressions, and he has improved a bit--but he is very quick to rush through 1 and 2 and checkdown--that is a lack of confidence in his ability to read the defense.  I had a former NFL TE (Deems Maye) who played QB in high school (not sure about college) tell me that the best QBs read the defense by knowing where everyone will be when the ball is to arrive--not where they are.  I think his QB at the time was Humphries.  He said that Humphries would throw the ball into coverage before the cuts etc.  because he understood DB momentum, zone areas, etc.  and he could just see it.  Said so when people say nobody was open, they are usually right because nobody should be "open" when the QB has the ball--when the ball arrives, everyone should be open.  He said Humphries was never "great" but his skills were limited--from a small school--but his ability to read a defense made him never give up on a route.

      Mustard BBQ sauce only. Bessingers or Melvin's BBQ sauce.  However Bessingers is the best in the world, Melvin is 2nd.    I found this article    In fact, the New York Times Magazine described the sauce as “terrifically balancing the tangs of mustard and vinegar with a wood fire's charry flavor.” While helping his dad, Joseph “Big Joe” Bessinger, as a teenager in the kitchen of the family's first restaurants, Thomas learned the secret recipe for the gold sauce – ... https://www.bessingersbbq.com › t...
