OT: The Pittsburgher Thread: Ploff wins?!? Fire Tomlin

[Khelandros]

I'm talking about actual accuracy, not completion percentage, which I'm aware has increased over the past 15 years or so, mostly due to rule changes.

What a fall from grace for Slowik. Went from a head coaching candidate to getting fired.

I also didn’t know you were allowed to fire coordinators while they were still under contract.

1) These stats are pretty useless generally, since who knows who is evaluating these and there are different difficulties of passes.

2) But since you chose to go down this road, why don't you click on their individual player pages and look at that same stat? And the off target throw percentage too?

The issue is that these numbers only started being captured in 2019, so you're looking at their career numbers which pro football defence then accidentally distorts. There's a pretty sizable difference in favor of Brees, whoops! This is what happens when you just blindly look for numbers that help your argument instead of researching.

Interesting one given all their injury problems. Their fanbase seems pretty happy but I don't think too many people would have questioned it all that much if they'd believed in him learning and growing.

Rumor that Cam Ward is going to be the Giants pick and they are going to take Miami's OC with him.

I don’t know if Tennessee passes on Ward at 1-1

I think they take Shadeur.

Sanders is not close to Ward.

If Tennessee is smart, they don't take a QB at all. They could get a cornerstone on defense instead. That's the all around better move to me.

I think Shadeur has a lot of Deion in him. He knows the processes, he knows exactly what is going to be expected. He's going to obliterate the combine. He's stock will rise before the draft, I guarantee it.

If I were Tennessee I'm actually backing up and getting multiple picks. That's the play, IMO.

It’s a rough year to have the number one pick. I think Abdul Carter is probably worthy of it. Hunter may be a very good player but doubt he plays both sides. And if he doesn’t I don’t know if he’s necessarily first overall caliber at CB and definitely don’t think he is at WR.

Neither QB is all that exciting either so I’d question how much a team would spend to move up for either.

I am super intrigued on what happens with Hunter. I don't feel like I've seen anyone address his ability to play both sides at the next level in a comprehensive manner. My big question is can any team stagger WR and CB practice in such a way to let him do it? That's the first big hurdle.

If he can, what is he? A CB who runs ten routes a game? A WR who is the best dime package CB in the game? Something more?

I feel like Carter is beginning to attract 1OA talk and I think it's probably going to happen unless someone decides they must have a QB.
