Quote from: BluesCruz on Today at 07:37:18 AMLets hope that does not happen. Do you really want to hang your hat on Jones and Drew Lock? Last year I believe DeVito pretty much ran the team in pre-season. He started 6-7 more games during the season. In that respect he is our most seasoned QB using 2023 data.
He looks the part out there. Jones looked tentative and lost before injury. He. basically could not move the team downfield. I have no idea what Lock brings to the party.
There is definitely a bias towards tall, strong QBs- Tom Brady, Josh Allen, Eli Manning types. That overlooks the fact Joe Montana, Drew Brees, Dan Marino, and Fran Tarkenton were not overly tall and populate the top 10 QBs of all time list.
In todays NFL you sink or swim with the QB. I'd prefer to not sink because of tall man bias.
Quote from: BluesCruz on Today at 07:56:01 AMNFL.com has Daniel Jones ranked 29th out of 32 probable starters in 2024. How did we get in this mess? With a 29th ranked QB your season is logically pretty much over before it starts. Gettleman gave us Jones and followed up with Barkley. Unless Jones re-invents himself he has to go as did Barkley before we can get back in the conversation.
Despite all this Im going into the season thinking playoffs. Somehow, someway we will overcome the problem
