Week 9: Other Games

[Guts]

I was going to say this earlier but I didn't want to get laughed at

 

[Love The Drake]

Pickett reminds me of Mac

That was his comparison honestly I believe.

 

[Froob]

Pickett reminds me of Mac

I think he’s worse honestly

 

[TheBeers]

It’s uncanny. The short step and diagonal arm whip. Looks like he prefers to stay compact when he throws rather than stepping into it.

He has that shot-put delivery with a pronounced palm-down follow through.

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

When your QB sucks I don’t know how it’s possible to be a successful OC. Seems like Steeler fans refuse to acknowledge reality. They can learn from us, and from their backup, the ultimate Pearl of Hope project, Mitch Trubisky.

 

[PatsFan2]

Will Levis first 6 quarters in the league is better than anything Mac Jones has done in 6 consecutive quarters.

Homers just got a kick in the gut go easy on them brother.

 

[Jlaff]

I think he’s worse honestly

This is my second game watching Pickett and I feel confident he's gotta be the worst starting QB in the league.

 

[TheBeers]

Ahh you guys remember the good ol' days when Mac was a rookie and looked like he might be decent? Now I'm sure Levis is going to look bad at some point. But he has a legit arm, and a classic pocket QB body, looks like a pretty strong dude. Pickett and Mac do not look like that

Steelers are very dumb if they don’t realize Pickett isn’t the guy after this season.

Almost everything also sucks and you will be unable to do a proper evaluation of what you have. Defense will stay longer on the field, they will not have time on the sidelines to correct things, they will get injured because they are over playing. Oline will look worse than they are, skill position players will also be trashed because only absolute generation talent at the skills position can make the QB remotely serviceable. The coach will be trashed for building a team that is poor. Get a QB will who will not make asinine decision and just turn the ball over like Halloweens candy.

All very true. You know it when you see it.

Unfortunately the pseudo intellectual homers on this site are certainly not watching this game, or any other NFL game outside the Patriots, so it will fall on deaf ears.

They probably wont!

 

[Ice_Ice_Brady]

They probably wont!

They’re doing the same thing as us. Blame the coordinator, the coach, the weapons, the line. This is basically a fan cycle with every first round bust (who is decent but not franchise level.)

I will say I think Mac is a better player than Pickett. And I think with a very good line, and great players around him I think Mac would be fine. Not here of course, I don't think that it can be fixed here with him.

 

[TheBeers]

Lets go Titans !

If you’re this bad year two, you typically won’t improve much.

Mac could be a solid starter like tua in an amazing situation. Pickett I think would even make that difficult.

 

[Ross12]

Man the Loki episode was good tonight

 

[denverpatsfan]

Pickett wins games in the 2nd half. Something Mac can't seem to do.

I was never sold on Mac. Regardless of your OC, this first actual NFL snap was foreboding. He lacks the composure gene. Gets flustered too easily for this level.
Watch the first play in the video and see if you will remember.
I will really like to hear from BB if he really wanted Jones because the video from the draft room still hunts me to this day.

Does this room look like they are picking someone they are absolutely thrilled with?

Maybe…Tua is in MVP running though, not solid starter tier.

Tua is a master of lob passes. He can float them with the best. He can’t throw ropes over the middle or surgically dissect a defense. The Dolphins have built a hell of an offense around his skills and got the ultimate vertical threat in Hill. I’m not a big fan of Tua either but clearly he has his place.
