And that's right about where we'd be if we had drafted a bust QB like Teddy Bridgewater or Johnny Manziel. Picking up a QB is almost always a roll of the dice be it in FA or in the draft.
Oh, I don't think so. By season's end (assuming health), he'll have 23 career starts under his belt - if they don't know by then (and, frankly, they should know *much* sooner - by midseason, at the latest), this whole regime should be ****canned. It's his 5th year in the league - other than adjusting to new teammates/system, he should be basically be a "finished" product by the time he takes his first snap in the regular season.
Starting RB is new to the system. Two new offensive lineman at least. Two rookie receivers. First time being the absolute starter. Yeah, I can see the excuses coming in already.
Oh, I think there'll be a giant adjustment period and the team could struggle initially. But we should be able to see through that and have a decent idea of what we have with BO much sooner.
It will depend on what the struggles are. If is making the wrong reads that's one thing. If he's wildly inaccurate, holding the ball too long, can't hit open guys on the deep ball...yikes.
Was it against a professional team? And does that mean other quarterback stats are inflated because they played against those same bad teams?
I don't know this for a fact - I'm merely putting 1 and 1 together and drawing a fairly specious conclusion - but I get the sense bobby doesn't like Brian Hoyer. It's more of a gut feeling. BTW, here's my gut:
That matters no matter what QB they draft of sign or whatever? Right? If sh@t goes wrong, sh@t will go wrong. I totally agree. But you have to take a shot sometime, right?
But he loves Ryan Mallet and thinks we screwed up big time by cutting him. It's just weird at this point
The only professional teams bad enough to make Hoyer look like a competent QB were the Titans, Jags, and Saints and last year they were just barely professional teams given that they had the 27th, 31st, and 32nd worst defenses in the NFL
That's the Steph Curry network. Their rating is useless. With the weapons the Texans have anything less than 10 wins is a huge disappointment
Even if you give them 4 wins in the division and then give them Lions, Chargers, Bears, and Raiders. That is eight. How surprised would we be if they lost to the Broncos (defending champs), vikings (improved playoff team), KC (another improving playoff team that the Texans struggle with), GreenBay (Aaron Rodgers), Patriots ( possible but it is still the Patriots). I'm not calling it and I am expecting better but all those losses are against good teams. Im not apauled by that prediction.
How many tds would he have to throw for you to say he's a good qb? 70? Oh and please don't put that loser Johnny In the same sentence as Teddy B.
If he threw one a game over the course of a 16 game season it would be a career year....the worst kind of QB bust is the busts that people convince themselves that they aren't busts. Same happened for Mark Sanchez. Even if "some" can't see it, nearly the Vikings' entire offense is AD. They have a very solid defense, but if AD isn't dominating, they aren't scoring.
And the Texans hope they have a QB. And if we are going strictly on the QBs then the Raiders game is a loss and so is Jacksonville.
They don't think much of Os as a quarterback, they believe everything put out there that says Fuller is a bad pass catcher and the Braxton Miller is nothing more than a quarterback that wants to be a wide receiver. They have no faith in what the Texans plan was during free agency and the draft. I happen to think we had a great off season and many "experts" will be eating their words when all is said and done. Texans need to prove them wrong on the field.
