Not so much an interesting stat as it is indicative.

Since you can’t have pass interference until the ball is in the air and it has to be catchable anyway when it is in the air, the sack scenario and question of a poor pass or not don’t apply. Sure there is no guarantee that a ball will be caught, but it’s guaranteed it won’t be when a defender illegally interferes. That’s especially egregious when it’s done in the endzone and you’re robbed a potential TD otherwise. Anyway, if the rule is changed, defenders will be coached to intentionally interfere if they’ve been beaten deep. And if a team “picks on you” with a speedster, it’s on you to defend that. Cheap, intentional 15 yard penalties is not a defense. Find a DB that can cover or get beat. You almost make it sound like it’s not a good thing for an offense to have that kind of weapon.

Pro day is a different animal than the combine entirely. Makes sense he could hurt his stock when he didn’t perform well in a scripted, rehearsed performance with receivers he’s known forever. But if I had to put the most weight on something, it would be how he did at private team workouts and interviews subsequent to that.

Agree it’s not a good idea. Gonna be open season on every receiver who beats his man deep.

FFS, given the ever-changing face of the earth from outer space due to its continuous atmospheric changes, you should be MORE suspicious of two exactly alike images.

It was his entire body of work throughout college and his post college path to the draft that contributed to where he was drafted, nothing less. I strongly doubt anyone made a draft determination on him based on his combine performance. It’s just too near the beginning of the process to have that much of an impact. Edit: it’s a moot point as it was posted earlier that he is one of several prominent prospects over the years to not throw at the combine.

What’s not? Flat earth nut jobs aren’t professing their beliefs today or didn’t in the past? What’s not, exactly? Be specific; at least to the degree you are able. Like I said earlier, you are either a troll or woefully and willfully ignorant. Either way, you aren’t capable of reasoned dialog, let alone learned.

No doubt but, like I said, if his motion doesn’t impact his ability to get it out on time and with enough velocity to get it there, they will leave it alone, most likely.

It certainly was and is still believed that the earth is flat as this thread sadly illustrates. And some, especially clergy and the ignoran, professed and continue to profess it, certainly. I’m asking when scholars actually taught it in academic settings, since it’s been known, even among the most illiterate of their times, for thousands of years that the earth is spherical. We were taught myths that Columbus’ crew were afraid of falling off the edge of the earth on their voyage but sailors were actually educated on the subject and had been for milenia by 1492. That’s the only reference to the subject of flat earth I can recall from school personally. That’s just wrong.

Ok, I’ll bite. When did “academia” ever teach that the world was flat?

Not necessarily. While I agree with the larger point about mechanics, especially lower body mechanics, whether or not a coach decides to re-work a throwing motion depends on whether or not that motion is a detriment to getting a ball out on time and with enough velocity. If Darnold can spin it with elite speed, they won’t mess with it.

These agents tend to over think things. Unless there is a medical issue (and that’s gonna be checked, anyway) there is nothing to lose by throwing and nothing to gain by not throwing. It’s still early in the evaluation process in terms of assigning grades so it makes little sense not to participate.

Great minds, what can I say?

Pretty sure that’s God doing shadow puppets. Why, just the other night he did the flying bird.

This is a total crock. ALL available information? The exact OPPOSITE of this is true for you to reach your conclusions. Educated man, my ass. You’re either trolling or woefully and willfully ignorant.

Lol. Wu was the best. “Swedgin!” Hang Dai, Wu. Hang f-ing dai.

No ****, Sherlock. I was making a reference to another long time poster who also changed his moniker. And Tom throws as much crap as he ever did, anyway.

Last I saw it, that crap throwing monkey was hanging out with some dude who was eating crayonz.

It’s definitely one of the ways. Ancient mariners knew the earth was round by observing ship masts growing longer as they appeared over the horizon and moved closer. The most illiterate sailors knew the earth was round thousands of years ago.

I think Kane can do just that. Just go off over a 16 game stretch in the kind of games he’s never played in. His style is tailor made for playoff hockey even when considering his puck hogging ways. So he has a great playoffs, the fans in San Jose fall in love, and the Sharks front office offers him that moon you mentioned. Then, after he signs his deal, he returns to normal, their locker room implodes, they miss the playoffs and we end up winning the lottery with that 2019 pick of theirs.

Last year’s AHL rookie of the year? I’m psyched!

I suppose you don’t believe that the inverted lighthouses that guide submarines aren’t real, either.

Flame on? Who is flaming anything here? My point is that Cosell was way out of line when he made that assessment and the ONLY reason he has a chance to be right is because other QBs in that draft have proved to be poor while he hasn’t done ANYTHING in the league to DISPROVE he doesn’t suck. Thus my remark that Cosell was right for all the wrong reasons.
