is this where i say that i couldnt say my real thoughts in this thread? because everyone would realize i have fallen for Mahomes? how the heck did you turn me into Kelly McGillis? i want the truth! no, wait. wrong movie.
i am excited for KC and Mahomes. i love Texas QBs experiencing success in the pros. and i love the spread offense following along with them.
but his recklessness got Goose kilt. steady iceman never made any mistakes, and never killed his RIO. do you really want to see Travis Kelce die because of Mahomes' recklessness?
did you even read what i wrote? QBs use their eyes to influence defenders. but once the defender has been held by the QB's eyes, he should then turn to his target and make his throw, not make a no-look pass. the risk-reward with this kind of play isnt even up for debate. mahomes pulled it off. and it was an exciting play. but it is not what QBs are taught nor what they should do.
i havent seen EJ Smith this year but saw him against LT last year. he is a nice player but really surprised he is in the top 10 in the state. top 50, sure. top 10, no.
you move or hold the safety with looking before the throw. there is no reason to not look while throwing. its stupid and will lead to interceptions more often than not. changing arm angles and platforms and "no look" throws sound cool and all but there is a reason the best of all time rarely do any of that. the consistency of their motions leads to consistently accurate throws. putting the ball where it needs to be over and over and over again is what leads to championships not "no-look" throws.
it was an exciting play and really cool to watch tho...
why in the world do you need to do a "no-look" pass in the NFL? it serves no purpose. looking a defender off your intended target is one thing but not looking at who you are throwing to is just stupid and will result in INTs more often than not. there is no doubt that mahomes is exciting but my guess is his career ends up more like Matthew Stafford than an all-time great. He is just too reckless with the ball.
yeah i dont know. thats what i am going to ask. i know we valued Williams over Richardson as a S prospect. but have heard that Richardson might be more of a LB in college.
If Elko leaves, that might put S Brian Williams back in play. He loved UT and the DB coaches but he had an even stronger relationship with Elko going back to ND. I will check around to see what I can find out.
i agree with that assessment. Brown behind a decent line would have been effective in college.
I watched Porter and Glass against LT in the playoffs. Glass is a much better back than Porter but I still have the same concerns voiced above. He was amazing as a freshman, really great as a soph, injured as a junior and effective as a senior. the best thing for him would be to redshirt and let his body heal. if he could regain his freshman/sophomore form, he could be electric. but i have my doubts.
If they did want him, they could have him. We'd be willing to trade him to France for a conditional pick in next year's draft depending on his jail time, $5, and a bag of Cheetos.
it's hard to write a response when Trump wont tell the truth or admit any wrongdoing. i cant imagine representing him. any response will be completely and wholely unrelated to the mueller report. it will be a fan fiction that is all about how Trump is the unicorn that shits rainbows that we have all been looking for and the only detail will be conspiracy nut theories about how Mueller and crew are conflicted and should be disqualified. i think it will read a lot like the corsi filing where he filed a criminal complaint against mueller. the land of fiction and conspiracy is where this president and his team live.
well, Bru is under 6'3 so he doesnt really fit that role to begin with. but they have said the same thing to QBs, WRs, LBs, etc and i get it but it has offended some parents and players both on the recruiting end and on the team. i trust Herman and staff are great recruiters but maybe they could be a little more subtle on that particular pitch.
i can tell you Jason Washington is working on Leal every single day. Caden Sterns is as well but to a lesser extent. I dont know if it will make a difference or not.
Naivar is contacting Garrett Wilson daily but I dont think he will make a dent.
As for Mehringer's pitch to Bru about Texas not having anyone else on the roster to fill that role. They need to stop saying the same thing to every recruit. That shit works some times and not others but it always gets back to the players on the team.
