Guys can be immensely talented but need to be with a good coach and have talent around them to be successful Just saw the two picks ... both went through the hands of his receivers.

turtle28 Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 Eric Wilson, WLB, 10 tackles through 3 quarter for the Eagles today… feels like we could’ve used him… huh Rivera? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was my realistic guy to get #1. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtle28 Posted September 19, 2021 Author Share Posted September 19, 2021 (edited) I like QBs who are 12/13 and throw for 144 yards & 3 TDs in the first half… Edited September 19, 2021 by turtle28 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see how he does. Can't believe he's getting such an early opportunity. If he lights it up y'all will be hearing about from me ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn’t that how we grade these things in this forum? 😂 44%, 102 yds, 5.7 ypa, 1 TD, 1 int & 1 fumble Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, agreed - he didn't exactly light it up ! I want to see what he does after a week prep as the starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirk didn’t develop fully until his 4th year so just keep that in mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thaiphoon Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 Almost forgot to remind @Woz Last Saturday 9/18 was the 39th anniversary 09/18/1982 1:30pm Scott Stadium JMU @ UVA The game features future NFL players (and Super Bowl champions) - Gary Clark and Charles Haley. Final Score: JMU 21 UVA 17 Of course we'd meet again the next year and lose 21-14 but I'm okay with the 1-2 record vs the 'Hoos (we won't talk about the 1st game in 1979 when we were still basically a rec team). We haven't been able to get on your schedule since then. Wish we could get you guys on the schedule again. It's just a short trip on Rte 33. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeT14 Posted September 22, 2021 Share Posted September 22, 2021 With Fields announced as the starter against the Browns, and Davis Mills starting Thursday, there will be 5 starting rookie QBs in Week 3 (Jones, Lawrence, Wilson). Is that a record? I was trying to find data on that but was struggling. Add in 2nd year guys starting this weekend (Herbert, Eason, Burrow, Hurts) and you've got 9/32 starters within their first two years. Not sure if I missed anyone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also - here's an interesting factoid: In his previous two teams, Tyrod went out with an injury and was replaced by a young QB as a result. And never got his job back. Those young QBs? Baker Mayfield Justin Herbert 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker Mayfield Justin Herbert Man, Tyrod has had some bad luck bc while I don’t think he’s a top half of the league starter, whenever he gets a chance to start he plays average. He’s more great back up than someone you’d want starting, but he’s an average starter too. He did take Buffalo to the playoffs in 2017 (the 1st time in 17 years) & made the pro bowl in 2015 for the bills. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he's top 10 or top 12 but he's definitely in the 15-20 range and can get you to the playoffs with a good team around him. Dude just can't stay healthy (some of it is not his fault - punctured lung? Really?) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
