    Will admit I'm not in the Justin Fields camp but damn if that wasn't a pretty pass.

    I thought I was going against the majority as In my lineup I have Fautanu at LT and Jones at RT. I still think this gives us the most Bang for the Buck with Fautanu playing LT in college and not having to learn to play RT.

    Fautanu-Seumalo-Frazier-Daniels-Jones.

    I love it. Light a Fire under his Ass. George Pickens took way to many plays off last years when he was not involved in the play.

    This.


    The more advanced aspects of the position; processing information, pre snap reads against Defenses, speeding up his throwing motion, etc.


    Tom Arth is just the man for that. Along with the likes of Phil Matusz, he is among my favorite new hires. Dude is a Pro Football Fundamentalist.

    I guarantee Moore doesn't start the whole season at LT, when was the last time their first round pick sat the bench for the whole season :facepalm:.

    Prima frigging donnas. Still on the side Pickens is yet another NFL player with great talent but limited brain cells. I remember M. Jordon and C. Barkley sitting down with Tiger Woods in his early days. He said later on that it really helped him dealing with the BS. A. Brown should have sat down with guys who would have helped him. (maybe) IMO Pickens gonna be yet another problem. Not a team player.

    This is one of those catch 22 things. If the pass to Austin works and he goes into the endzone, everyone cheers and talks about Pickens as a Diva. If Pickens gets it for a 20 yard gain and is tackled the Fields catches hell for missing Austin with a homerun ball.

    Hell he's probably thinking.....He we go again.....another Qb that can't see the field, and...misses wide open guys. From that quote. Pickens was the wide open wr.

    How do you know Austin wasn't also the "Wide Open WR? Just says Fields misses the throw.

    From what I am hearing Justin Fields looks like an All Pro QB on one play, and a guy that can't make it in XFL on the next play. Same problems he had in Chicago, on some passes he is great and on some passes he is not.

    nah, but if he gets nn extended groin injury you might surmise he was passing some balls around.

    This is the quote. Why do you think Austin is also not wide open? All this says is that Fields misses the throw. You are "Assuming" that Austin was covered and Fields should have thrown the ball to Pickens.

    Third down situation, Pickens run a slant off a pick and is open across middle. Fields goes to Austin outside and misses throw. Pickens not thrilled with decision jumps up and down in disgust.

    LOL... I guess the truth is that neither one of us saw the damn play, so we both don't know what we are talking about. :)

    I did not know part of the conditioning test for a QB is pushing a heavy sled around. That is probably something he does not practice in the offseason away from the training facility. I don't think too many QBs keep a weighted blocking sled in their back yard. :)

    No offense, but that seems like a stupid way to get a QB injured before training camp even begins.

    Injuries happen, but several guys around the league have already had ACL, the Detroit kicker tore his hamstring and is out for the year. We can discuss why all this stuff happens with little or no contact, but agree putting your QB in that situation is pretty dumb, even dumber if he decided to do it himself.
