LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 1 minute ago, JDD said: DTR needs to learn when to throw 60 mph and when to throw it 30 mph. Dude lets it rip and while NFL WR should catch it, if it’s not in the green catch circle it’s hard to do. Cooper has had struggles for some reason and that is surprising. I thought that Harrison Bryant TD was a fastball and was glad he caught it. If he dropped it, he’s a bum. That was a middle though. Youthful excitement and probably a lot of passes getting picked in TC while he adjusts to the speed will do that. Some of the throws come in hot for sure, but they haven’t been so extreme that Njoku should drop like 7 in 2 games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s obviously not starter material yet, but for a backup? Meh. I’ve seen a lot worse. He also had a lot of help from the receivers. He definitely has a lot to learn just as far as running NFL offenses and such. Watching what Wilson was able to do as far as manipulating defenses, etc. compared to DTR was chess to checkers. But, such is life with a rookie… Not all that bad, just some that bad. He definitely got better as the game progressed. We're talking starter though (this year) and with him there is hope. May be false hope but it's something. Obviously we should have ran more especially between the tackles but it is what it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Njoku really does when he needs to be a big part of the offense with DTR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I guess what I'm saying is start Sacco. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NateDawg Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 Off-season goals should include signing a competent QB2 and drafting someone like 4th round and hoping you maybe strike good and up with a Cousins/Dak/Howell. This position needs entirely re-done behind leshaun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LETSGOBROWNIES Posted November 28, 2023 Share Posted November 28, 2023 I’m fully on board with drafting another dude day 3 though. Not because I’ve given up on DTR or anything, just that it’s such an important position you really need to be 3 deep with guys who at least have the potential to be competent.

I didn’t like him when he came out. Regardless, I don’t think it’s a bad thing to draft somebody to compete at the position. I’m talking about like a fourth round pick. Even if you are right and he is a decent backup at some point, do you see a guy that can play chunks of a season as a quality starter? I don’t think he has those skills. And if he develops into next year, let him compete with the guy I’m talking about drafting and let the best man win. I’m not opposed to that. The QB position is biting us in the arse this year. Worth the investment. Edited November 28, 2023 by NateDawg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worth the investment. I’m absolutely cool with reinforcing the position but I’m not seeing what you are with his play. I’ve seen more positives than negatives for a late round rookie.

He best case scenario is a guy you hope develops into Josh Dobbs…a guy who gives you a spark and wins some games then comes plummeting back down to earth and mediocrity. This team needs a Kelly Holcomb or Jacoby as long as we have Watson, not a late round rookie project IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t like relying on rookies at all, especially at QB. I really assumed they’d keep Dobbs this year, let DTR just learn and develop and then next year move on from Dobbs once DTR had a chance to settle in. They got way too cute imo.
