    This move to the acc has been annoying as a fan.  Can't catch games on tv and then 9 pm starts.

     

    Unfortunately that means I can't use my tickets to tonights game.  So if there is an SU fan among us who would like 2 free tickets to tonight's game let me know.  I can email them to you or have them waiting at will call for you.  Quote this post if you are interested so I get a notification. :thumbsup:

     

    Damn you! If you gave me 24 hours I woulda been all over man!

     

    must win vs Pitt. Hope CUSE steps it up

    Looking forward to the Baker Mayfield write up.  He is the opposite end of the spectrum on trading game tape for a measuring tape.  A LOT of people are discounting him because of his height.  They put Allen ahead of Mayfield on the basis of a tape measure.  Look at the film.  I have heard a hundred times, the tape don't lie.

     

    Can't wait to read what you think.

     

     

    Well of course I will publish my scouting report here but for a quick spoiler yes he is ahead of Allen on my big board by quite a bit

     

    As of today they aren't close as QBs. Baker is better hands down in his development

    How's Mayfield coming?

     

    I keep hearing ideas that he is not a McDermott guy because of his attitude, but I'm not buying it. Aside from the DUI his other transgressions came from his fiery competitiveness, which to me would be exactly what McD wants.

     

     

     

    Its good. I am pretty much finished with Baker and Darnold I wasn't sure who to post first.

     

    i will go with Baker then.

     

    I will probably post it tomorrow sometime because I pride myself in my amount of info so all my reports are fairly long lol I'm too tired to type it up tonight lol

    I’m still confused,it’s a conceptual offense? Not to bring up a sore subject, but when EJ was the QB one of the criticisms was that he came from dumbed down offense at FSU. That offense really only had a handful of plays that were run out of multiple formations. Isn’t that what Perkins/Erhardt offense is?

     

    To a point.

     

    Again, everybody runs the same plays to a degree. The difference is some teams (good teams) will add a few more concepts than bad teams 

     

    in the west coast offense the verbiage is all memory. To oversimplify, the system uses what is essentially a memory system. On running plays, the same two-digit numbering system as most NFL and college teams is used. Passing plays, however, are typically denoted by the primary receiver’s route, such as Z- in x- hook , while the rest of the players are required to memorize their task. These plays can be 15 words long sometimes longer 

     

    The Coryell system is similar to the west coast but relaces the verbiage with the route tree. So you can have a play called 896 and all receivers would know what to do . but the 1 back system has rendered this all but obsolete because you must add in west coast verbiage as well

     

    the erhardt/ Perkins verbiage is based all around the concepts of the offense. So you can have choice combinations , in combinations, flood, etc and they all mean something to everyone when called

    They did that with Marcell? Marcell play 1tech all the time from what I saw. I might not know the difference but if I missed it ,point it out.

     

    Marcell didn't play that much for us this year and we traded him so long ago I cannot say for 100% without looking back at the tape what technique he's in

     

    im saying historically McDermott does switch It up so why switch now.

     

    i will look right now to see if I ever saw marcell at the 3 this year. Maybe your right

    I never saw Marcell playing 3tech. And tho I don't watch a lot of Carolina, usually they had Star playing 1tech when I did watch them last playoffs. (2016)

     

    I made a thread when McDermott came here about his 43 under / over defense. You can still check it out but it's locked to reply because it's been inactive for 6 months

     

    It's only a few pics for comparison but I watched enough Carolina to see they flip 1 and 3 tech based on over under alignment.

    Perhaps...I would like to see us draft a Julien Edelman or Wes Welker type receiver- that is quick in small spaces.  That type of receiver is so key to the Pats sustaining their drives.

     

    For that type of WR to thrive you literally need one of the most accurate QBs in the world ala Brady, Brees, Rodgers , Ryan 

     

    Not that there's a crazy difference between 5'9 and 6'0 but there is in the NFL lol

     

    id be pumped to get a refined route runner next year tho hopefully closer to 6'0

    I’m confused, how is an offense designed by Ray Perkins and Ron Erhardt a modern 2018 NFL offense?

     

    It's not the offense its verbiage .

     

    its football, it over a hundred years old. Everybody runs the same plays.

     

    what changes from team to team is verbiage and concepts 

     

    the three three main verbiage offense are the west coast which is a memory offense

     

    the Coryel which is a route tree offense

     

    and the erhardt/Perkins which is not ran by route tree but by concepts

    Went back and re-watched every throw from three games for each of the top rated passers in this years draft, including Allen.  Walked away with the same impression I had of him after watching three games earlier in the season.   He may have the best arm I have ever seen, but with that being said I think he is the kind of Quarterback who will be drafted on potential alone, and really shouldn't be picked before the third round.   Even considering the lack of talent around him he has gigantic meltdowns during games and doesn't do a good job of bouncing back from them.  Even his "most impressive" game of the season against Central Michigan was a bit of a misnomer.   Feel like he is a project quarterback and I truly hope the Bills dont consider him in the first round.

     

    He is definitely going in round 1 whether he should or shouldn't 

     

    as for best arm ever... that is a bit hyperbole 

     

    arm talent is just as much accuracy and touch as it is strength and he lacks very much in the touch category and a bit in the accuracy category so I wouldn't call it the best arm I've ever seen . Not at all . 

     

    It it is very strong no doubt and he makes some wow throws for sure

    They have a ton of talent on both of sides of the ball, as always. Fitzpatrick and Payne on D are two of the best players in the whole draft. For the Bills purposes I’d take a good look at Bo Scarbrough in the mid rounds. He doesn’t have a lot of tread due their RB depth  but he’s a pro-ready RB imo. 

     

    I'd love to get Bo in the 3-4 round because I think he'd be a great change of pace back 

     

    He has pretty bad vision right now which doesn't bode well as a feature back because you either see the holes or don't but he can be a great #2 punch because as you said low tread

    It has been so long ago.  Everyone matures and improves as they older.  He was way over his head in those OC jobs.

     

    Definitely. But I wouldn't say him being with Saban makes him higher qualified as an OC

     

    Saban always leaves the offense to his assistants. The defense is his baby. I could care less he's been with Saban. Every OC at Bama is successful 

     

    but i I will say I highly respect Saban so if he likes Dabol that is a plus

    Tough loss to Florida state. They played with a lot of heart, especially battle. But you can’t have 1 guy on offense and nobody else. It was almost comical in the OTs. Battle was triple teamed. None of the other guys posed any offensive threat whatsoever. Dolezaj missing wide open lay-ups, Washington bricking 10-foot jumpers, brisett missing a wide open 3 to win it. It’s embarrassing at a certain point.

    I'm sad

    IMO, He was literally the worst QB I have ever seen start significant time in the nfl. There is not a current qb in the nfl, starting or backing up that I would want less. Not exaggerating, I mean that 100%. Before people start saying you would rather have “blank?”  if the name is of a qb in the league, then the answer is yes. Hope that clears it up.

     

    EJ Manuel was much better than Nathan Peterman and it isn't close right now
