Davis and Jackson have been good before this season. Considering its only been 3 games in 2019, I'll give them the benefit of the doubt.

Damn son- what you’ve said qualifies as NOT hitting on his first rounders.

This isn't college football...... you don't get 'sexy poll points' for how perfect you are, or how badly you can beat (or lose to) a team.... it's how you can overcome adversity and FINISH.
IT IS JUST NOW WEEK 4 - let it go.
Chill out AntonioI allways finish and overcum. Can I be the qb?
Sorry im new. Ima go now. :runhills:
I’m absolutely fine with trading for a vet while we draft a qb for the future. The complete draft is hit and miss I understand that. But I also know what u usually have in a person by year 3 and we sitting on 5 with MM. I never wanted a mobile QBs and most ur college players are mobile. I’ve always wanted a pocket passer as a QB and we have an opportunity to get that. So I’ll get excited that we may get what I want back there instead of 5 years I told u so crap.
Scrambling QBs have been better than pocket passing QBs outside Brady, Rodgers and Brees. Watson, Mahomes, Dak, Wentz, Russ, and even this year Lamar and Kyler look promising. People using the pocket passer QB excuse are stuck in the 80s
I wouldn't classify Mahomes as a typical scrambling QB....he buys time with his legs....but he definitely is pass first.That is merely because almost all passers coming out of college are scrambler now.
In the NFL, you learn to live in the pocket, or you have a short, forgettable career. Every single one of the passers you mentioned has learned to thrive in the pocket. Throw Roethlisberger and Watson in that camp too.
The ones from you left out? RG3, Bortles, Kaepernick, young, locker, mariota, newton... Those are the ones who never learned to live in the pocket, and their careers either ended or are rapidly ending.
The two most important attributes you want in a quarterback are intelligence and work ethic. A big arm is nice, wheels are well and good, but ultimately irrelevant.

Patrick Mahomes scrambles and runs so much that he's racked up 11 rushing yards this season!That is merely because almost all passers coming out of college are scrambler now.

Hmmm....Scrambling and being mobile are 2 different things. Mahomes scrambles on almost every other throw lol.
Maybe Pac-Man could set it up and be in charge of making it rainMariota just needs to take the WR's to a strip club and get trash ass drunk. That would loosen this whole thing up.
Davis has not had the opportunity very often to prove himself and when he has he has done very well.Neither have performed at a level worth where they were drafted, even in their best periods.
Interesting. You notice in those highlights how fast he gets rid of the ball? As soon as he finishes his drop back he is throwing it. Also, look how fast his pocket is collapsing.. in many of those throws, if he held that ball another 1/2 a second, he would be getting smacked. That is where Mariota has a major issue. That and stepping in the wrong direction almost every time.Hmmm....
As much as I would like to argue with you, I cannot. Mariota appears to be broken, and not with problems that can be resolved.Interesting.

Another thing... In many of those plays, if he HAD gotten sack, it would not have been "his fault". But, he didn't get sacked, he made a play instead. Good qbs make those kind of plays. Mariota does not. He gets sacked, even though "it isn't his fault".
