  1. I'm watching Alfred Collins and he is just gawd awful. He's definitely a work in progress. Grab a snickers its gonna be a while.
  2. I don't doubt that, I just didn't see the burst, elusiveness, or speed. Even on his 62 yard touchdown with a key block he gets caught. Speed isn't the only way to be a great wideout. I just think Sark will have to scheme him open and when he does I have all the confidence in him to male the play if the play is there.
  3. His plays weren't all underneath. He wasn't laughing down the feild 40 yards or anything, he operated in the intermediate both inside and outside the numbers. The running game was working so he was able to work off play action. It was a very Brock Purdy like showing for him. But yeah both of his TD throws came in the redzone.
  4. Quinn is currently on a 13 play 92 yard drive at the 2 minute warning. On this drive he was behind the chains multiple times and found away to keep the chains moving. He still has a long way to go, but he definitely looks like he belongs. Looks like he's going to finish 11-17 116 with 2 yes. Guess the reports of him not making the same mistakes we've heard out of Dolphins camp are true.
  5. Quinn is looking good and doing things he didn't do last week. The Dolphins are even moving his launch point by giving him naked boots. He's 5/8 48 yards 2tds and no sacks.
  6. Wait til you see Makuba pick 6 on Gabriel. 75 yards to the box.
  7. This is what I'm saying also. One of my favorite plays was him blocking a db into the kicking net. He's a terrific zone beater, its just his ability to separate from coverage was a little concern. To be fair, in terms of accuracy( ball placement) his qbs didn't do him many favors. Maybe it'll show up for us, I'm hoping it shows up for us. I like his game, he's a glue guy.
  8. https://youtu.be/tvunGqDjzNw?feature=shared We've talked about the speed of Mosely here so I decided to go rewatch what he was able to do at Stanford. What I see is toughness, catch radius, sure hands, contested catch ability. What I don't see is burst, elusiveness, separation, or speed. Yes, I know Sark is a much better play designer and caller than whatever they have over there at Stanford. Nor am I looking for Worthy/Bond kind of speed, I just don't see the speed and quickness that has been used to describe him at times. That doesn't mean I don't think he'll be a player for us, because I do think there's a role for a player with his skillset. His tape just tempered my expectations is all.
  9. How is Olivia Miles looking. That young woman is a walking triple double, her handle and passing can be jaw dropping at times.
  10. It's early but I don't know what the Olympic team will look come four years from now. I have France winning it in both women and men. France can roll out a lineup of all 7 footers with Wemby at the point. The women team is crazy too with Gabby Williams, Malonga who is basically a female Wemby, and a couple other names I can't spell.
  11. One of the first knocks on Arch was he didn't play against the stiffest competition. Well... he didn't actually play with the best talent either. When your tight end is bigger than your tackles and guards, they're going to get beat and you still have to make something happen. Watch tape of Quinn at SLC, he was never under duress and because so he developed lazy habits and bad mechanics. The same can't be said of Arch, go back and watch Arch's first touchdown throw at Texas. It was at that moment I said, yeah he has "it".
  12. ๐Ÿ˜‚ "hey issa run", yeap Ant has seen way too much of Sark's offense. That definitely explains the defense having the upper hand. That has to be the worst feeling in the world for a running back to hear the linebacker correctly call out the play pre-snap.
  13. I said something about how big Arch is when watching the Chargers game. What sets Arch apart is he can play on schedule and get the ball out on time. But if I'm being honest the qb I'm looking forward to seeing is the "shrimp" KJ. He's not going to run over or out run anyone, but when it comes to escaping and arm talent he's the best on the roster as of now. He and Arch has great skillsets, but KJ defending KJ is like playing a guard on a fast break when he has a 2 on 1. Any decision you make will be wrong. Arch is going to be like a smaller, faster Josh Allen.
  14. What Bambi ever do to yall? ๐Ÿ˜‚ jk I wish I still had the patience to sit in a deer blind, I'm hating cause I'm jealous.
  15. I don't really care for a national talking heads from the jump so I don't care what David has to say about Texas, but the title for those of us who understood it without the use of urban dictionary, oh I knew this thread was going to be interesting to say the least.
  16. Cool stuff right there ๐Ÿ˜‚ but they had to have been playing deuces wild or pitty pat because that card table was waaaaay to quiet and friendly to be playing spades. IYKYK!
  17. Did anyone check on CJ ๐Ÿ˜‚
  18. They better be really careful about who they line up at nickel. Way back when I was taught to have hot feet and that was at outside corner. Once your feet stop moving you're beat. Nickel is totally different, you better be able to set the edge, have quick play recognition as well as quick feet. At corner and safety you're first move is backwards. At nickel more times than not your first move is a recognition step then you have to be quick enough to get to where you're supposed to be in the scheme, it is extremely difficult and not everyone can do it.
  19. You may be correct in your assessment, but we're talking about the NFL.
  20. So what is it we're expecting from a 7th round qb? People are acting as if he was drafted 1/1, what is fun about bashing a 7th round qb? Isn't that kicking a man when he's already down?
  21. Nope but I'm here now. Sam is still in the league so my point still stands. There are no threads about how much he sucks as a NFL quarterback.
  22. Then where are the long drawn out threads about Vince Young, Colt McCoy, and Bam Bam Sam?
  23. Personally I don't follow Longhorns after they get drafted. I only watched because its football, so whether Quinn makes it or not I'm not like others here who needs their opinion of Quinn to be validated. Alfred Collins however, being a fan of the 49ers I need more from him. If some Texas fans just want to continue to pile on Quinn because that's what they're used to doing then hey go right ahead. If you're not a fan of the Dolphins what does it matter where his career go from here?
