DawgX Posted November 12, 2018 Share Posted November 12, 2018 1 hour ago, Mind Character said: Absolutely. Indeed, even those of us that loved Darnold as a prospect the most foresaw a historically bad rookie year for Darnold if he was forced to start early. Anyone that didn't see this season coming from 1000 miles away was not paying attention, or let their love for Darnold the prospect blind the reality of his play development. Yup. Especially with his lack of weapons on the Jets. Darnold is struggling but I still think he turns out to be a top QB in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’d think Kizer would have as well. Yeah, like, he said other guys would take the line out for dinner. It's not so much about valuing them as realizing that there is something (for lack of a better word) intimate about having people in your home and hosting them. It fosters a different kind of connection. I feel like that is a pretty common leadership principle, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A lot of times QBs will force feed a #1 WR and take chances that aren't really necessary. I don't think we need a Julio Jones or OBJ even though it wouldn't hurt, we just need guys who can get separation on certain routes and can catch a football. If Callaway shows he can catch I am okay with Higgins and Callaway on the outside and Landry in the slot. Obviously we need some depth and if we pick up someone who makes a current starters depth, even better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, there only great receiving threat to win a superbowl is gronk, and I think they have won when he was down also. 6 guys that you pay 3-6 million a year is better tha 1 guy you pay 18 per year, if you get it right.

I thought that he should get the Mahomes treatment and sit for an entire year. He was only a 2 year starter and regressed as a sophomore when asked to do too much/didn't have some talented guys around him (Smith-Schuster for one). He can make the "wow" throws and does well downfield, but turned it over on a very regular basis. His arm and footwork mechanics are clearly leading to inaccuracy and inconsistency issues.

As a leader you connect with your people the best ways that you can. Yes, having them into your home is good, but only if you are a good cook, have one or hire one.

You can order food in, or do a non-food event (videogames, beers and watching a movie/b-ball game, etc.). I guess I'm just surprised that nobody's done it in five years.

Kizer sent out invites but they got intercepted. Kessler thinks he did but he can't remember after all the concussions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
