Bo is the only QB on the roster that remotely understands the playbook and makes throws on time.
Obviously, but it's more fun seeing there's actually legitimate talent in the system compared to the past 5 years or so. Main reason being them having their first elite pitching prospect since Gray.
Luckiy for you it wasn't Kool Aid that was poisoned at Jonestown but rather the knock off Flavor-aid, which you'd think General Foods would be adamant about the general public knowing, but this may be the ultimate case of any publicity being good publicity.
I’ll check back in with ya after a week 1 loss and a prediction that we’re going to land the first overall pick in the draft.
I haven’t watched any of the games but my buddies are all telling me the defense looks very ‘squishy’.
I'll take an 0-17 season if it means the Broncos have a franchise QB.
I believe that's correct. If Bo is the guy, these two seasons should prime him for some real runs, after.
I’m cautiously optimistic for the first time in a while. Only cautiously because we have been bad for a while.
Yes, though they at least have a couple of young players there who showed some promise last season.
I'd argue football is more difficult. Not only do guys need to be absolutely absurd athletes, I'd argue teamwork is even more necessary. Sure you have WR who can do what they want and be shits. But your MLB, DL, OL, QB all need to be impeccable. You fail there, your team fails. The misses are vast on even 'can't miss' guys so often that what it takes to actually succeed is very difficult to pin down.
Intresting. Thanks. I was thinking that the nature of football being a set defined play lasting mere seconds. Whereas in hockey you are looking at a game that is nearly constantly live with players simultaneously playing both offense and defense that it would be much more difficult. Especially given the way hockey has much more widely varying TOI to take into consideration.
There’s probably a ton of nuance to it all and we can only just really give our opinions. I think to be truly elite at hockey it just takes such specific skills that it is quite evident early. Sure outliers exist, but in a game that is free flowing and players have to take on varied roles, the cream rises to the top. In my experience, when you take in a junior game, you can see very clearly the guys who will be high end players. It may not always work, but the ones with a chance at elite flash so brightly.
But a guy like Logan O'Connor is imminently valuable for a team...yet he goes completely undrafted. It seems that quite a few undrafted types can make rather lengthy careers as bottom sixers and bottom pair/7D. I know development is not linear and these dudes could simply be all late bloomers. But it would be interesting to know how you truly judge which of the dudes who have evident motors will be able to translate that to the typical bottom 6. The draft seems so concentrated on trying to nab top talent that I wonder if we could deliberately be overlooking some good players in the search of great.
