I call bias. People develop. Even Michigan guys. I hate when people disregard a whole line of work for a okay outing in a NFL like atmosphere or as close as you can get in a college game. I’d say leading a team to 35plus against that TCU defense which is a dog mentality defense is okay Edited January 1, 2023 by ripsean21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tell you I’d actually draft TCU’s in the mid rounds!!! That guy gets the absolute most out of his team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish we had a better QB development program because I love Levis because his raw abilities. And we talk about QB’s without weapons in college Levis is almost Josh Allen level in that light. But I just don’t know if we could tap those tools because he has all world ability Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d say leading a team to 35plus against that TCU defense which is a dog mentality defense is okay McCarthy just isn’t that good. The dude is not completing the same kinds of passes that Fields & Stroud did, he’s not as complete as a passer. McCarthy’s whole line of work isn’t impressive if you watch the Michigan offense. I know it seems I’m being biased, but I’m not. What can you possibly see out of McCarthy that’s making you think top 10 pick? Their stats in their first years starting: McCarthy: 2700 yds & 22 TDs Stroud: 4435 yds & 44 TDs Fields: 3273 yds, 41 TDs Edited January 1, 2023 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slappy Mc Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 After watching the Michigan-TCU game, I came away impressed with Dylan Horton, DT for TCU. He was an animal. Reminded me a lot of watching Jon Allen play. I think he will be a good pro at the next level. Also the Georgia TE, Brock Bowers looked really good too. I believe he is a true Sophomore though, so he won't be able to come out for another year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made a play that I absolutely loved, where McCarthy escaped the pocket and ran for like 50 yards in a big loop and ended up on a beeline for the corner of the endzone. Would have scored had it not been for big 98 busting his tail to knock him out at the 2 (which ultimately saved 7 points when UM tried that weird Philly Special on 4th down).

Thaiphoon Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 17th pick, boys. The more things change the more they stay the same. Perfectly mediocre 7wins, 7wins, 7wins in Rivera's first 3 seasons here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

taylor made Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 And with the likely Packers/Seattle wins that moves us up to #15. Hopefully with another loss we can move up to the 12/13 range. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And because we had a crap owner forcing picks and people not listening to the guys who DID know what they were talking about, we needed more top of the round picks so that the guy available was a "no brainer" and not the whole "should we take Sweat or Haskins with this 1st round pick?" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thaiphoon Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 I get that he's the favorite whipping boy for some, but the amount of people blaming Kirk today for our elimination is ridiculous. He, and the Vikes, could've balled out today and it wouldn't have changed the fact that we crapped the bed against an, allegedly, inferior team. We had our destiny in our hands. When we don't win, don't blame others for not "helping" us. We didn't get it done. No one to blame but ourselves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
