Game time notwithstanding, Kyle's first start was midway through his fourth year playing for Florida. AR's first start was midway through his...
I wonder if LSU fans were clamoring for Burrow to switch to TE in 2018. Not saying AR = Burrow, but he had a pretty middling first season and has...
"Some" of our fanbase? 4 guys of our fanbase? I dunno, doesn't feel great either way.
It's an interesting recruiting pitch to future QBs: Come to Florida. If you're struggling at all within your first 8 starts - even if you show...
I'm sure he is/was eager to demonstrate his skills here. But if a QB comes to a coach and says "I just want to pass" I'd hope the coach says in...
Agreed, but it requires having an offense like UT's. Right now they cut through any defense like a knife through hot butter. That said ... I...
Look at the last few QBs to get drafted as the top QB. They were all guys who were allowed to run when they needed to, even when they weren't top...
I don't think that's why his running is limited nor do I think running more would hurt his development as a passer. In fact, I think it would help...
It does a lot, even (or especially) for the passing game.
He did well enough recruiting lazily that he just didn't seem to care that much. It's not 1995 anymore though, you can't get by like that. The...
We had a true triple option when Harvin was here, too. Hell sometimes a quadruple option (QB keeper, handoff, pitch, shovel pass). We all...
The part I was disputing was the idea that being a running threat makes a QB less of a passer. That's sort of a relic, back when running was very...
I agree with your bold and surely controversial opinion that passing is important for quarterbacks. ;)
Sure, but that's a different point than you were making. Most of the top QBs - even in the NFL - are at minimum mobile. It's not 1995 anymore,...
You also listed QBs who came up (or existed entirely) in the time when QBs really weren't asked to run. The highest rated QBs of the last few...
In fact, you can see a very similar thing in Rex from 2001 to 2002. He made a lot of the same throws that worked when he was throwing to Gaffney...
If you watch Kyle, he normally got to #1 or #2 option and the ball was out, sometimes into unfavorable coverage. But he had those transcendent...
I don't disagree and I never argued this.
I don't think it's the channel, it's the day of the week. All of those guys play on Sundays now.
