Name me one good USC QB in the league…..I can name you a bunch of good college ones.

the coach over there is real deal. That will help Williams be more prepared but he still will not have the success in the nfl that everyone is assuming

Lol .
What does that have to do with Williams?

How many good QBs did Texas Tech have in the NFL before mahomes ?

How many good QBs did Tennessee have in the NFL before Peyton Manning ?

How many good NFL QBs did Wyoming have before before Josh Allen ?

How many good NFL QBs did Michigan have before Tom Brady ?

How many good NFL QBs did cal have before Aaron Rodgers
How many great USM QBs did they have before Brett Favre?

How many great LSU QBs before Joe Burrow

I can do this all day

I don’t know if there were ever any Wyoming QBs ever lmao. USC has had a ton. A lot of golden boys not live up to expectations. The point went over your head apparently. But regardless from a football perspective I think he is overrated. Y’all need to remember this is college football. It’s a different sport bro. He’s 6”1. Nobody is questioning anything about him. It’s a love fest. Unlike with Lamar (goat) and unlike Mahomes (traded up to get him 10th pick) and unlike Josh Allen (mayfield and Darnold before him). I’m telling you right now he’s not a sure thing. He goes to the Texans. An organization who did nothing to help Watson in his prime besides give him massages

Attempting the 4th longest field goal in NFL history instead of going for it on 4th and 4 late in the game .

That play cost me over 20k because I was gonna win willies survivor contest but Hackett fucked me up.

That’s my story sticking to it . Haha
4th and 6 with a struggling QB game 1. That’s a long FG but also a big big leg kicker. And more and more 60+ are banging through. Maybe 8-12 kickers are realistic to hit 63-68 with a decent good percentage. Brad Mac is one of them.

Not saying not going for it on 4th n 5 or 6 is the right call but I can see the strategy of no using the timeouts on 2nd and 3rd because if they have to attempt a fg and it hits Seattle gets 69-90 seconds back with 2 timeouts needing just s fg to win.

But going for it wasn’t the so called end all just absolutely wrong call either. It’s close to 50% he hits the fg and 50% they get a first down. Distance was there but a bit left.

It’s damn if ya do damn if ya don’t. He hits thst FG it’s great coaching letting clock run and trusting his kicker. Interview after game is what made you trust the kicker from 63. And it’s the ole Ive seen Brad good from 72 and during warmups he was good from 66-67 and told me 64-65 is doable tonight if ya need me.

Hard to disagree with that
He has a mahomes type ceiling .

Him , Lawrence and Luck are the 3 highest graded QBs in the last 20 years to come out the draft . I would call that a generational talent.
Don’t forget the Sam Bradford gym shorts workout which to this day some still say was the greatest performance ever lol

Sadly I agree with Caleb I wanna be like mahommes. Guy isn’t that great. Somebody put on the Oregon st game tape. One game never told me so much about a QB like that one

Lincoln is a good coach out there but his system is stat friendly. Caleb was the worst heisman Winner ever. An embarrassment he accepted it.

USC was way overrated this year all based off record. No Washington no Oregon and twice vs Utah Fat L’s. Beating up Rice Colorado Arizona Arizona st Washington st Oregon st Stanford California. You had 1.2.3 total win teams in there

Tulane +1.5 told it all.

Give me Sam Hartman Over Caleb

He was the guy to go for it on 4th down before any of these coaches had the balls to do so. He showed the blueprint. I think it’s safe to say he’s the real deal. Onside kick at halftime in the superbowl probably the ballsiest call in superbowl history.
Actually it was Doug Pederson that started the go for it and go for 2

Actually it was the HS coach who hasn’t punted and onside kicks every score for the past 25 years.

Lol cool story and crazy but he did the math and has a great point. Teams win a bunch also. Wild stuff

It was. You’re right. And they did a story on hbo real sports about it and they also interviewed guess who in that same episode? Sean Payton. Why? Because in 2010 ( before Doug pederson) saints were going for it all of the time. Look back at the saints WC game against the lions in 2012. He was a 10 point favorite in that game and went for it 4 different times on 4th down….converted 3 of them.

In the nfc champ game he went for it in OT on his own what? 45? With Pierre Thomas. We all know he was truly stopped short there and it should’ve been a turnover on downs. But yes nfl did have a storyline with Katrina and Greg Williams did incentivize his players to kill opponents

Sean Payton has been involved in some of my favorite games in nfl history. I got nothing but respect for the guy. From the 49ers saints nfc divisional game to the marshawn lynch goat run to the Minnesota miracle. All saints loses but still all very memorable games. That 49ers/saints game had like 4 lead changes in the final 3 minutes. And the favre game which Payton won.

That HS coach has a valid point and strategy strange or not

I live by one rule in football. If you can’t get a yard you don’t deserve to win anyway. So why not go for it

Being on field in real life vs watching it’s crazy the difference. Sound as well. Yard is so short on the field and the game is nothing like you see on tv

It’s amazed me how many coaches for years are so scared of a yard. Almost like baseball managers stuck in the bring a lefty vs lefty in its what I’m supposed to do.

Things I’d do in football...

Never Return a kick or punt. It’s highly likely a flag or fumble or muffs. You see it non stop too much goes wrong

Kicking the ball to sideline instead of trying to pin it and roll in end zone. Punters too good not to be able to coffin kick

Move FG to 9 not 7 yards off line. Never understood this idea it must be 15 and 7 yards punts Fg.

Utilize QB sneak on 4th n short way more often.

Utilize the run in more 3rd n long

And never punt once past midfield. The net gain yards are just so irrelevant sometimes. Obviously certain situations late apply etc

Going for it on more in my own territory. Just gamble sometimes

Also curious why more teams on punts don’t attempt cheap 15 yard pooch let ball bounces around maybe hit defense players. Punt team back to wall too long. Easy to get caught up in a silly touch not knowing/expecting the ball to be around

Based off reading what you appreciate I can tell what your pick in the superbowl is ?. GL.

But I agree with those points. The job security is a big part of it for me. If a coach doesn’t have job security he isn’t going to take a lot of risks. May go for it on 4th and not get it and then not go again all game until the last play. But the nfl is a copy cat league. The coaches not taking the risks are the oddballs

Is Drake Maye the next elite QB? If so if you’re any top 10 drafting QB needing team this year do you slow roll draft capita to make a move for the future next draft with Drake?
