And if he's the shits, I'll gladly admit it.

But he's 6'5", TCO! 6'5"!

I'm not labeling him a bust at all but he was definitely a reach. It's the NFL's fetishisation of these big guys with huge arms that causes it and it's not his fault but if he's thrown in at the deep end, he's gonna have to learn fast. NFL corners close windows at crazy speed.

Isn't 6'5 almost too tall for an NFL QB anyway? Has anybody over 6'4 had huge success. I'd imagine the release point on this big lads would be too high. I know it's one of Osweilier's many struggles. Like Aaron Rodgers is 6'2 and everybody knows that height isn't a problem for Brees or Russ.

 

Brock Osweiler threw a 100-yard pick six against Boise State in his final college game (56-24 victory for Kellen Moore btw). Did they really think he was going to magically learn to throw a football just because he was standing kind of near John Elway?!

 

The old saying in football and basketball held true with Osweiler and Lynch and maybe now we'll see it in Allen: Little guys have to prove they can play in the league. Big guys have to prove that they can't.

Elway says that Denver are 'strongly considering' adding a veteran QB to back-up Keenum - meaning the end of the line forPaxton Lynch, effectively.

I hope its Byron Leftwich.

[SeanDMan]

I hope it's John Elway.

I'm holding out hope for a Dilfer comeback.

[Maxx]

I'll settle for either of the Detmer brothers.

[SeanDMan]

Has Josh McCown signed anywhere?

[Pooker]

Wasn't Jeff Garica training for a comeback?

I bet <yet to be mentioned former Browns starter> has some tread on the tires.

New England's top draft pick (#23) Isaiah Wynn has suffered a torn Achilles. He's likely done for the season.

AJ McCarron has fractured his collarbone. 

[munky]

And the door is open for Josh Allen. He moved the offense pretty well last night. Still made a few rookie mistakes, but you can see why McBeane were so high on him.

I don't think McCarron was going to be the starter anyway, but it still sucks for him.

If this pans out, who needs Dez?

[gunnar hendershow]

Yeah the thing with signing Dez is I don't think he understands his own value. He didn't sign with Baltimore because a 3-year deal wasn't to his liking, he wants 1 year to "bet on himself". But nobody wants to sign a veteran who plans to do that, they want the reduced cap hit a multi-year deal affords. Cleveland was a great fit because they have the money to spend, but that might be off the table since they can just play Gordon how they'd have played Dez.

[The Buscher]

ESPN and NFL analysts are trying to play damage control saying refs aren't used to the rule and are going to throw flags at anything close so they can review with the league office.....but god damn.  This league is deader than dead if perfectly clean tackles are getting flagged.

[Pooker]

Between that, and the roughing the passer call the other day, this season might become a joke soon enough.

[Lineker]

Adrian Peterson is signing with Washington.
