    If you watched the Rich Eisen interview with Rosen, Eisen and his sidekick were ragging on Darnold for wearing a hat in the rain... and longsleeves.

    Wait till they get hit with wind that makes the wind Chill below zero Fahrenheit.

    When that happens, then they will know that they are playing some fuyucking football.

  • USC may have scored 27 but, to me at least, this is the game I watched that most scares me about Darnold's ability at the pro level.        If you haven't watched the game vs Washy St.  I suggest you do.    So many things here that just aren't good which would show their ugly head again and various points throughout the season.

    OK Tia- want to know what you don't like. Sam is going to have to learn to slide at the next level or he's going to get killed. Love that pocket mobility though. Yeah, a couple of dumb mistakes and bad throws. The one fumble was an unabated to the qb- very few guys can duck in time when that's coming at them. That one near int in the end zone was a flagrant PI,  the USC's guys jersey was pulled out a foot away from his body...

    Old, but good read on Sam...

    Who was the last good QB named Sam?

    Bradford don't count.

    Edit...in checking....the ONLY "Sams"  of any note that have played QB in the NFL are  Sammy Baugh....and Bradford.

  • Note:      Along the same lines.....of first names you have these who are among the top 250 QBs in NFL history in Attempts

    Sam:    Baugh and Bradford....as noted above.

    Josh:  Josh McCown and Josh Freeman

    Lamar:  Lamar McHan   played from 1954-1963  1442 passes attempted.  Played for the Cardinals, Packers, and Colts

    Baker:  None

    Mason:  None

    If you want I'll go through each and every play that just bothered me.  Im in Cleveland until about 9 (birthday party) so I'll be on here after. 

  • I sure hope this isn' the case. Allen isn't a 1st round prospect and I have really soured on Darnold. He looks really timid in the pocket and seems to panic when the pass rush heats up. 

    I really think Mayfield is the guy that Dorsey is falling for. Moxy, accuracy, leadership, mobility, and he's a winner. Mayfield at 1 and Chubb at 4 lock it in.

  • There it is, boys! Shmuckin Moxy for days!!

    Who else had moxie? (Charlie Frye)

    And he's a winner! (Colt McCoy)

    And he wants to be here! (Johnny Manziel)

    I respect your takes Tia, so when you have time- we still have a month to go...

    He will complete more passes in the pros because reasons.

    In his defense, I felt Pistolas had a reasonable shot at being a solid QB until he got hurt.

    Tia has been vocal about liking Rosen.

    As for me: it goes Darnold (definitely needs a year to get squared away because mechanics are garbage), Rosen (still concerns about the noggin; without the concussions would be my number 1 by far), Mayfield (Big 12 QB with all the Big 12 QB pitfalls), Jackson (crazy athlete with dookie mechanics), and Allen (avoids 60% accuracy like it is ball cancer).

    I agree with that break down of Rosen 100%. He is the best QB in this draft... but he can't help a team if he's on the injured reserve. He screams Sam Bradford to me so I would rather roll the dice and try and develop Lamar Jackson or go with a gamer like Mayfield. Other than Mayfields size I don't see a problem with his game. Our team could probably use a little bit of toxic masculinity.
