Quote:Playing Devil's Advocate here but do you think that WR would have achieved more if he had someone better than Geno throwing to him?
That theory will be put to test around week 6 when Geno gets the hook and Vick takes his place.
Quote:If you followed the CFB board, you'd see why people care. For 3 months leading up to the 2013 draft, we had to hear things like
"You take Geno 2nd overall because you can't win without a franchise QB."
"You want to pass on Geno Smith, a potential franchise QB?"
"You take the QB every time."
etc.
etc.
Then, consider how condescending 50% of the posters on this board are you can imagine how self-righteous some of those posts came off. Geno guys will continue to pretend like Geno was worth the #2 overall pick because "QBs > everything else". While QBs are obviously the most important players in the league, you don't draft a crappy QB just because he is a QB when there is much better talent available.
Then fast forward to December the 2013 season. Most of these Geno fans were now Teddy Bridgewater guys. They used the same cliches "You take Teddy Bridgewater because QB > everything else". Anyone who didn't think Teddy was sold on being worth the #3 overall pick was deemed stupid. At least we have Bortles now, so these same guys will take some time off rather than picking their new must-have-QB in a few months.
Regardless, what's so bad about a little accountability around here? God forbid....
Brah, it's a message board. Calm down.

If not earlier.
‘Would a five be an Akili Smith or JaMarcus Russell?” one coordinator asked. “I think the way Geno Smith played last year was close to that."
:pinch:
This was about the worst play in the NFL last year.
