Quarterbacking and playcalling have oscillated violently between questionable and abysmal, but 4 career touchdowns in 39 career games is inexcusable for a #4 pick. Some of his routes hurt to watch, whether it’s poor spatial awareness or his knee injury sapped some of his explosiveness (I’m not pessimistic enough to say lack of effort). Ideally I’d want him to live up to his full potential here but he has not been valuable enough to the team since his rookie season for him to be untouchable if it means landing a franchise QB.

I don’t understand how this happens. Unless it’s obvious the refs should always let it play out. Every week teams get robbed of touchdowns like this

MVP Matt Ryan on this team would win the Super Bowl

Josh Allen or Danielle Hunter 🔜

Daniels has been better against tougher competition this year and has more upside. Also fewer injury concerns

Processing was considered a strength for Ridder coming out. Main issue was accuracy/ball placement. Daniels also a significantly better runner than Des, Ridder has straight line speed (his 40 was the same as Mariota’s) but below average elusiveness.

I’m sorry but I’m just not seeing this. How can you say they have a “no superstars” approach to team building when all three top 10 picks have been spent on offensive skill position players? I agree that Blank deserves a lot of blame for derailing our QB succession plans but that doesn’t excuse Smith’s poor usage of Day 1 picks and Fontenot’s poor drafting on Day 2.

I also don’t buy that we weren’t interested in Lamar. Mahomes is head and shoulders above any other football player on the planet but a healthy Lamar is better than Jalen Hurts, Joe Burrow, and Matthew Stafford - who have all won or nearly won Super Bowls since this regime was hired. Let’s not even begin to entertain that Cousins - who I think is top 10 - is on the same tier as Lamar.

The reason we didn’t go after Lamar - which has been widely suggested - is the same reason nobody else did: the Ravens very obviously would have matched any offer he received. I say this as someone who was banging the table for Lamar; it simply was never going to happen and the FO knew that, just like all 31 other FOs.

This goes so hard

Derek Carr is ASS lmao, FTS

Ebiketie has a good PRWR but doesn’t know how to keep contain and it’s killed us multiple times this season

Has Arthur called carries to the same RB on consecutive attempts this season?

I hadn’t been paying as much attention to him but just reading off ESPN even before today he had 3,476 total yards and 33 total TD to just 4 picks in 9 games. #1 in the nation in QBR. His worst game was the opener vs FSU and he still threw for 346 and a TD and ran for 64 that game

I assume the bottom-right quadrant has to be a mix of guys opting for riskier throws and guys making poor reads, but from watching Ridder I definitely feel like it’s the latter

Edit: just wanted to add that I’m shocked Brian Daboll hasn’t shot Daniel Jones

Ryan Poles did this specifically to fuck with this because why is a bottom-5 team giving up a draft pick that’ll probably end up in the 30s?
