    The Roadrunner - The Jayden Daniels Thread

    Could be that it doesn't *shrug*, but obviously they have their reasoning and with a position that's as difficult to draft as QB, more data points can only be a good thing, surely.

    The Roadrunner - The Jayden Daniels Thread

    Not sure 'congeniality' is the right word. Yes, we need an alpha dog at QB, that much is true, but honestly most QBs ARE alpha dogs. It often comes with the position. If your QB isn't your alpha, or is disliked by your players, you're already behind the 8 ball before you've started. We have an...

    QB or not QB

    I think this is absolutely true. I also think it's why so many of us are vacillating between Daniels and Maye. There's not much between them in my eyes, and I'd be happy with either. I think both could flourish in a nurturing environment which it looks like Peters and co have gone out of their...

    QB or not QB

    Incidently, that's also why I think Howell stands a very good chance of being a pretty good QB a couple of years from now. What we saw last year was raw, but if Seattle take their time with him, I think he'll reward them. It's sad that if he does blossom, it won't be here, but I also understand...

    QB or not QB

    This is a really important point. Brock Purdy was Mr Irrelevant, but went into a professionally run team, with an excellent Front Office, an excellent Coach, and a team that was pre-built and superbowl ready. His skill set as a game manager with a low ceiling (so to speak) may have seen him...

    The Roadrunner - The Jayden Daniels Thread

    That is an interesting take, and I actually agree with a bunch of that stuff. I was listening to the JP FInlay 'Beltway Podcast' on the way to work this morning, and he reiterated that this is the way they did it at New England (when Peters was there) and then at San Francisco. Honestly, it's...

    Heresy or Foresight? - The J.J. McCarthy Thread

    I think comparing him with Brock Purdy is kinda apt. Now, I’m not saying that McCarthy should be Mr Irrelevant, but I do wonder how much of Purdy’s success is because he’s a good game manager who got dropped in to manage a Super Bowl ready team with Shanahan as coach. How do we think he’d have...

    Heresy or Foresight? - The J.J. McCarthy Thread

    As I said, I’ve been devouring podcasts and news reports and articles, I’ve watched the films on all three. The common consensus seems to be that Daniels is ready to step in and play, but there’s concerns about his ceiling and his stature, and the fact he puts himself in harms way frequently...

    Heresy or Foresight? - The J.J. McCarthy Thread

    I’d be shocked if it’s McCarthy. I know his stock has been rising because ‘intangibles’ but pretty much everything I e listened to or read hasn’t convinced me he’s going to jump Maye or Daniels in the draft order.

    Random Commanders Thoughts

    Reports coming in this morning that Daniel’s is now meeting with the Vikings, where he’d been reluctant to before.

    Random Commanders Thoughts

    According to multiple reports I’ve read, it’s how they did things in San Francisco. It’s a practice Peters looks to have brought over. Can’t really argue with the results they’ve been getting there.

    BGO Blind Pig: The QB Decision

    The key to this, I guess, is to take the time to list out all the QB injuries from the last decade or so, then filter out the ‘freak’ injuries from contact like Burrow or Smith and filter out the injuries that aren’t attributable to any contact at all. Essentially remove the injuries that muddy...

    BGO Blind Pig MOCK DRAFT Vote

    We need a new poll to ask "How many times have you changed your mind over which QB to draft at #2 over the past 48hrs" I'd put mine somewhere around 8... LOL

    BGO Blind Pig: The QB Decision

    Wow, Maye had A LOT in comparison to Daniels. 930+ attempts to 700+ over the past 2years. Is that over more games? I’m not an expert on College football, but I know they were in different conferences, does that change the number of games they play? Also, a lot of the buzz I hear is that Daniels...

    BGO Blind Pig: The QB Decision

    I stand corrected on the Snyder move! 😂 That is exactly right. The RGIII thing, Silent nailed it. It’s not his play style, it’s the running. Maybe it’s just the trauma of how 2012 season ended, but that’s my fear. The fear that this ends in disastrous injury because he won’t learn to protect...
