Kizer vs. Watson

[domcucch1994]

I like Hogan, hell I liked Kessler..

But Hogan has more upside than Kess, but not quite the arm stength as Kizer.

Arm strength don't mean Sheet if you cant put it on the receiver. Hogan has that ability.

Now granted, lots of drops from Kizer's passes, no doubt, but ive seen him miss some pretty wide open WRs

Now Sashi won't have to hear the postgame comparisons regarding the QB that he GAVE Houston against the QB that he DID pick.

Maybe we made the wrong pick taking Kizer, maybe we haven't..

He has led some impressive drives, only to FUBAR it up in the redzone..

Sitting and seeing how it gets done is probably a good thing for the kid, unless Hogan plays lights out and snatches the job away from him..

Am I surprised that Hue went back on his word? No

Am I surprised it took Hue this long to realize, maybe this kid isn't ready? Absolutely!

I don't see us beating the Texans with Kizer at the helm,

I believe Hogan gives us a better chance.. Let's see if MG can get going and bring the heat on DeShaun... Should be an interesting game..

The list of athletic QBs who lit the NFL on fire, but eventually fizzled out because they can't stand in the pocket, go through their progressions, etc is a long one. (Cunningham, RGIII, Kaepernick, Tebow  come to mind). They are the NFL equivalent of a hotshot pitcher who can throw 95mph fastballs but can't command any other pitches, eventually the league catches up to them unless they master the finer points of the position.

I'm going to withhold "THE BROWNS REALLY MISSED ON THIS KID!" rant for more evidence down the road.

You realize this entire post is based on a guy whose name seems to be taken from a minor and relatively unknown Star Wars character?

"Westside" was a Star Wars character?

[SD_Tom]

He might not be a Michael Jordan,  but there's no doubt he works his butt off and gets his team to buy in.  

He's a special person.  Been the man of the house since he was a young teenager and his mom had cancer .. Won championship in hs, set state records in hs I think,  won a championship in college (almost had 2) while graduating early,  and is currently leading the NFL at his position. He earned respect very quickly in the NFL,  and from all accounts is just a tremendous leader wherever he's been. 

Like Sweeney said, he's too busy being great to get distracted with off field crap.

Dabo Swinney doesn't sound like a Star Wars character to you?

Note how Dabo mentions how important a leader like watson is in changing the culture? That's precisely it.  

That's why watson has been a winner all his life. Harder working and more confident than 99% of his peers.

You can probably say that about almost every quarterback taken from round four up.
