Play posted:Man I don't agree with this at all. He does a great job planting his front foot, using his hips to transfer weight and generate force. The one thing is his follow-through relies a bit too much on his arm sometimes, especially for short and midrange throws. But that's okay, honestly, because he's still accurate. Overall he has good weight transfer, he uses his hips in to generate force as he moves from his front to his back leg... all things you generally want from a quarterback. You're supposed to plant your front foot when throwing? He's literally all arm. He leans on his front foot and that's bad mechanics.

Doltos posted:You're supposed to plant your front foot when throwing? He puts his front foot out with his weight on his back foot, then transfers the weight forward while twisting his hips and his torso to generate force. His arm and shoulder do their thing and he releases the ball. The weight ends more to the front foot at the end. That's how you throw a football.

He puts almost no weight on his back foot that's the issue. You're supposed to drive off your back foot, not plant your front foot and lightly drive off your back foot. He whips his arms, it's his whole throwing motion.

Speaking of NFC East QBs, I hadn't realized that Geno Smith was the first African American quarterback to ever start for the Giants, only 30 years after every other team in the NFC East. I guess it will be another 30 years before we see it again. In case it's not obvious, they were the last NFL team to never start a black qb. good job on your racist franchise Giants fans

Is Washington actually planning to start Haskins this season or do they want him to ride the bench for a while? I'd imagine they plan to have him start because the other option is what, Colt McCoy?

I expect to see Haskins starting this year, although I guess there's a possibility it won't be week 1 (it will be week 1).

They probably hope to go another 30 years before doing it again after seeing what Geno could do.

I'd imagine they plan to have him start because the other option is what, Colt McCoy? McCoy is still hurt and may not play for awhile thanks to Washington loving up and rushing his return. They specifically got Keenum so they wouldn't be forced to start Haskins (or reach in the draft) but nobody is fooled. It's an "open competition" so my guess is that Haskins has to royally gently caress up not to start. Gruden's job is on the line and I think the best way for him to keep it is to show how much of a QB whisperer he is.

He's just a completely different creature than Keenum and I think once everyone starts seeing him throw the ball around they'll be into it. I also think he's got the smarts to keep up in terms of playbook and such

I don't pretend to know a lot about mechanics, analyzing film and I hardly ever watch college games but sticking him on this franchise...I doubt we'll even get a chance to know if he is worth a poo poo or not.

lol it's hilarious that it looks like Zeek just leans on him a bit and sends him and the barrier spilling over. I know he must have pushed him with his right arm but it still looks funny

The guy was backing away from him really hard and backed himself right over the fence I think e: I'd be doing the exact same thing tbh lol. They don't pay security guards nearly enough to make getting the poo poo beat out of you by Zeke Elliot worth it

As long as it was being recorded, I'd happily get decked by Zeke as long as it means he gets suspended.

I can't stand Zeke or the Cowboys but, to be fair, nothing in that video shows anything that led up to that. The other dude might have gotten in his face or been touchy or rude with the women he was with. Or hosed with his friends. I'm sure when you're famous and out and about, you're constantly being tested and hosed with by men and women alike, many of whom are simply looking for a payday. Charles Barkley and a lot of famous fighters used to talk about going out and constantly being challenged by drunkenly brave fools. I'm sure it gets old. That said, I can't for the life of me understand why so many of these players put themselves in situations like this where they make themselves vulnerable, knowing everyone is filming them. I think a lot about dudes getting popped for DUI at 4am, busted with hookers or driving around with 2 pounds of weed. God drat, you're rich enough to hire a 24/7 chauffeur and 5 bodyguards. You have a loving mansion you can lay back and party in safely with loads of women happy to come over and party with you. Smoke all the weed you want and have a fun sex life. I guess its probably more fun going out clubbing when you're the man and have unlimited income and sometimes I forget how young these cats really are, but maybe look out for your 5 year career a little bit and just steer clear of trouble, knowing there are hundreds of unscrupulous motherfuckers dying to get you on TMZ.

Considering his long history of being a piece of poo poo and the other guy just being some dude working security for some event that let himself fall over railing to avoid escalation, I think it's safe to say it's just the ewok being a piece of poo poo as always.

NotWearingPants posted:Which is the bigger gap in talent? Between Barkley and Zeke. Hall of famer Adrian Peterson is above Zeke anyways, so the gap between him and Zeke is a negative number Barkley is just on a completely different level, he truly does have it all. It's a real shame he's going to waste his most productive years and probably get injured from being ridden so drat hard by these incredibly lovely Giants teams we will see in the next few years
