It's crazy Osweiler looked like dog **** in preseason... and you knew he was gonna suck in the regular season Tom Savage was a beast in the preseason. Fundamentally, he's better than Osweiler, but we're tied to this ******* due to his contract
Osweiler actually outplayed Savage in the preseason. Especially when it sorta matter the most in game 3.
The balls Bortles threw were all shaky. Brock is capable of being better, especially with long passes, if he can just improve his accuracy.
THEY BOTH SUCK AND THE FACT THAT THE TEXANS SIGNED BROCK AND O'BRIEN SWOONED OVER BORTLES TELLS ME HE'S NOT A VERY GOOD QB EVALUATOR. THAT WOULD EXPLAIN WHY SAVAGE HASN'T SEEN PLAYING TIME YET
Means absolutely nothing, Brock is inaccurate, uncoordinated and unpoised, Blake is inaccurate with horrendous mechanics. They both suck. I honestly think Blake is better because he's not coached by Bill O'Brien
No he didn't. Os looked very good in the 3rd game and gave a lot of us hope. I remember saying, "If this is the offense consistently throughout this season, we're going to win at least 12 games." He was on time and not forcing the ball to Hopkins. He looked smooth. I don't know what happened between then and week 1...but it went away.
Offense including Brock and the WRs looked great in preseason and then the season started. You know what changed, the complexity. Everyone always says that preseason is vanilla, both teams don't show anything. That's why I'm optimistic. These same players didn't lose their talent, they just lost the ability to show it consistently because the offense and defenses are much more complicated. Chances are the QB and WR group will continue to "figure" it out as the season goes on.
What happened is that Brock easily succumbs to pressure. Unfortunately, he's got to overcome that or he will be a nothing his entire career. It very easily explains what happened in the first few road games.
Wrong. Losing 4/5th of your starting offensive line explains everything. Without a steady 4-5 yard per carry run game, the play action is neutered. Our offense lives and dies by the play action. The play action is even more important with a terrible offensive line - as he doesn't have time for five and seven step drops. Brock is 11-5 as a starter. I'm guessing the people that want to sit him are the same ones that think sitting Prescott in Dallas is a good idea too.
McNair needs to step in and make Savage the starter. He stepped in and made Keenum the starter and that's what he needs to do with Savage. My guess is that it was McNair/Smith that wanted Osweiler in the first place, so BOB will probably be happy with the change. We need to see what Savage can do, this would be a good time. Osweiler will be unhappy, but he's had his chance, so I really don't care.
Not saying he should or shouldn't but we are in a tough position because we are still in the hunt for a top three seed
