Quote from: Ed Vette on March 29, 2024, 12:25:16 PMI think they prefer ten but nine is acceptable.

Really?  I thought Nicks was an outlier as he had I think 10 inch hands.  Do QBs actually have hands that big?

I think JJ's hands were the smallest of the 6 QBs.

"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

Nicks was measured at 10.5 and some touted at 11. Soft hands too. Poof!

If he didnt have those injuries, where would people have him rated?
 

He does have a lot of positives:

Arm strength
Accuracy
Pocket presence
Experience
Doesn't take sacks often
Quick release
Size
Hand size

To name a few.

JT39

His 40 time is pretty irrelevant since he doesn't run. And he doesn't throw the ball to well on the run either.

"My sense is Penix will need a strong pass-protecting offensive line . . ."

Doesn't sound like a great fit for the Giants.
I'd rather be a disappointed optimist than a vindicated pessimist. 

Not slowing my roll

"Just be better at RT."

Easier said than done.  As we've seen.

Oh I dunno, it's actually easy to do. Just play Eluemunor there instead of Neal ;)

Most fans remember the last game and that's about all. 

Did any of the other QBs have as big an impact on a program that Penix did at Indiana?

I remember C.J Stroud struggling against Michigan a year ago. Well?
