Cowboys winning NFC East next year confirmed.
Honestly, when I watch a lot of the elite QBs in this league, they barely have to go through their progressions. QBs rarely have the time to scan the entire field. All in the presnap, watch for some late rotation. Brady's the king of this shit, especially with all the motion tipping off the D. Guy is on read 1 85% of the time, just knows what's going to be open, especially with the way they package routes.
Big Ben on the other hand is the greatest QB improviser the sport has seen, dude is playing street ball. Fuck reads.

Mech should've had him, but he insisted on taking Clowney.

Why me? I know what Bradford is, just because Chip likes him doesn't change the fact that he's not a good QB.
Still, yankee will enjoy it as he continues on his quest to be the next Kas.

They hustling cause it took like 12 minutes to get here.
Hope we didn't use all his power already.
Richardson check cleared.

well then
System QB's have to be, especially in a horizontal sub 1.3 second offense.
Watch Rodgers or Romo or Palmer or Brees (or anyone who is expected to throw the ball to the sticks consistently) and it's not at all uncommon to go 1 - 2 - 1 on the reads. (Receivers are such shit in this league that no one wants to get past the second read to the third)
And both are worse than last year's NFC South.
At least they have the best defensive lineman in the league.
Oh and :
Ryan Mallett will be signing with the Baltimore Ravens, per @diannaESPN.
Congrats Larry
Will he transition well to LB for them?

That is such great news. It is almost impossible to believe that there were people who thought that the Rams got the better of that deal. jnc
To bad the Eagles are not in the AFC East.

I am surprised to see him still on the Boys bandwagon for next year since we dont even know who their QB will be.

reach for hacknturd because reasons
Offer their first rounder for Manziel.
Browns go on to draft 2 more busts both in the top 5
I'm dead inside homie. Never ending cycle, it's hard to get my feelings across via text, not a great writer, but you'd have some laughs if you spoke with me.
ez, yeah, guys go through reads, some guys more than others, but understanding presnap/keying on defenders before the snap can get you a long way. Some guys just know how to play the position, process stuff 10x faster than others. You have very little time to do things as QB, how much scanning can you do?
Edit: That Manziel clip where he's directing the receiver while scrambling if funny, Manziel has to tell the receiver to uncover. I see that with Tyrod a lot, pointing at guys. With Ben, these guys know to get loose, keep running opening, he'll find your ass. Chemistry matters.

Romo will have to get smashed out of three more seasons before Jerry moves on from him. He desperately wants to win a Super Bowl with him so he can prove what a brilliant football mind he is for discovering him.
Things will only be good now for Cleveland kavey. Your presence has removed the curse.

Uhh it's going to be Romo and he's going to win his Owl

They got next years 2nd round pick for Bradford. Foles has been a disaster but they still made out well pick wise although someone else might be making that pick.
Bradford hasn't been good this year. That is a really tepid endorsement too, like no shit a GM hopes a guy he acquired is around for more than one year.
Sure, especially with the way defenses play so much more aggressive now you generally have to have a good idea where you are going with the ball early. Part of that is the change to the way defenses can play. If you don't get to the quarterback someone is either going to get open or get held, so you almost always will have some sort of hot.
The thing that impressed me with Manziel is he did both. Made a number of pre-snap calls, delivered the ball on time under pressure and in the face of the blitz but also when given time he slowed the game down and went through his reads.
It sounds shocking, but he played....maturely

Also, we lost our starting Left Tackle post the making of this dumb gif.
Nobody can say shit when it comes to injuries decimating a team to to the point of....
Yeah....
Rams got the better half of the deal because they dumped his salary
I thought Foles was a lot better, now I admit they both suck

You gave up a second round pick for 14 TDs and 11 INTs and you're trying to argue that the Eagles did well out of the trade?
This level of delusion is not good for your health.

I'll ask BoB to cut a few more guys. Maybe help you guys out.
He's not alone. I can't claim to have seen everything Foles did, but the Philly media is mostly on-board with Bradford. Definitely some dissent, and lukewarm endorsements. But they all seem to really not think much of what Foles did

he played well against a bad defense. kaepernick (and other bad QB's) have played well against bad defenses in the past. my whole point to begin with was it was only 1 game. YOU are the one who said he is "kaepernick with a high IQ" after 1 game against a bad defense. do you know what kaepernick with a high IQ would be? a probowl QB, if not better. so after 1 game against one of the worst defenses in the league you are saying john F is some type of QB prodigy

If fucking Ponder can get signed somewhere, Mallet can still have a career.
Maybe so. I know that he had plenty of time in the first half and moved the ball down the field just fine even with the short stuff 22/29 for 199 with all four drives resulting in points. There weren't many mistakes on those drives, and the pass pro held up.
In the second half, Raiders pass rush was suffocating and mistakes were made in terms of drops and bad pass pro. Brock was 13/22 for 109 with 8 drives in the 2nd half. Of those 8 drives, 7 drives were 6 plays or less (5 were 3 and Outs, either by safety, fumble, or punt). The other 2 bad drives? 4 plays for 5 yards, and 6 plays for 13 yards.
The one good drive went 49 yards in 8 plays, he was 5/6 for for 51 yards, with a -2 yard sack.
In reality it's probably a combo of Kubiak throttling the play calls, Brock staring down or not taking the risk through the air, and bad line play both on rush and pass. I don't disagree with your idea. If anything, I would love to see him make some deeper throws because he can do it and it's one advantage he has over Manning. He just needs a sliver more time to do it.
Real talk, Tyrod and 2nd round pick or Bradford.
I feel like I'm in bizzaro world with some Bills fans, they're slamming him but he's been good enough to win with outside of one brutal game.
Edit: I'm a complete believer, fuck that. He can improve but the guy throws some absolute dimes. I wish he nailed Watkins on that corner post, would have changed the game completely. Safeties would have backed up even more.

Nah, Kaepernick with a high IQ still has no touch.
Later I said he could be Russell Wilson! That's a pro bowl QB.
The Kaep comp was that he played that particular game like dumpster baby with a high IQ (he made smart decisions and was generally accurate but still didn't had too much zip on a lot of throws which made them difficult to handle.
The Wilson comp is what I think he has the skill set to become (based off of his most recent game).
The defense is largely irrelevant because again I don't care about the outcomes, I am impressed with his process yesterday.
That's how I feel listening to people complain about Ryan.
I really like Tyrod, I think he is a little erratic at times but he's still a project. That last throw against the Eagles yesterday was really, really bad though.
Higher INT rate than Stafford and Bortles.
TD rate equal to Blaine Gabbert.
Elite Matt Ryan be Elite.
some qbs just aren't pure enough to be system guys
