Success Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 I don’t know anything about anything, but I have been watching football for 40 years or so. It just seems like there is some kind of learning curve with the QB position. Like it takes a little longer to figure it out or something. Weird, I know...

That was after I got a D the first semester I took it. (The D was insulting, because it implied I knew something, but all I could do was find the classroom.) It might just take a little time to click. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juice_32 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 The air yards and drop stats are not insignificant in this case, but yes. It's not easy to be a rookie QB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSHMEAB Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Just now, KD in CA said: Clearly they are all busts. I know you were being facetious, but that is a real possibility. MOST of the greats are demonstrating far more than any of these rookies right out of the gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H2o Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 I don't know if quarterbacking is hard, but I do know it's hard to win in the NFL because this guy said so... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all that noise screaming through the headset. There are "helicopter parents", we now got "helicopter coaches." Ditka eat Your heart out! Unless You're Tommy Cheatriot and they keep the headsets on to actually walk him through. Or... Jam the opponent.

row_33 Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Every year at least half the NFL has a franchise QB who plays the game as it obviously has to be played bills refuse to draft or teach someone this very basic and obvious concept of QB in 2018 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're dead last, the only team in the league still below 1,000 total yards, sitting proudly in 32nd position with 906 yards. We are not even good enough to be a bad passing team. We're an irrelevant team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
