re: Mallett Drug Rumors Making Sense Now

decision making

why do you think his decision making is better?

quote:

---

he doesn't shut down after one bad decision

---

mallett doesn't either, apparently you didn't see him play much this year.

quote:

---

his wr's were not as talented as Mallett's

---

your probably right but mallett was certainly helping our WR's out by making throws most qb's can't.

quote:

---

Dude scored a 42 on the wonderlic test.

---

There is an article somewhere the shows where you want to score on the wonderlic any higher or lower than that range tends to result in a bust.

---

doesn't throw int's at key times, only threw 9 int's last year. Makes better decisions just based on what I've seen in games.

I saw almost every game. I'm talking about specifically vs. LSU and Alabama. Mentally he shut down. He was out of it.

how would being more intelligent hurt you. That's insane.

Verse LSU: 320 yards, 3 TD, 2 int, 13.9 yard per attempt.

Verse Bama: Yes, he threw int's to blow the game. But even in his worst game, he threw for 357 yards, 9.4 yards per attempt, 65.8 comp %, and 1 TD.


Not to mention Gabbert faced much weaker defenses than Mallett faced, and still didn't put up better #'s than Mallett.

Mallett had better talent around him.

quote:

---

meh. He did throw 2 int's and only completed 56% of his passes.

---

3 touchdowns though, as long as my qb is throwing more touchdowns than int's then he is going to be fine in my book

quote:

---

yeah he threw a pick 6 but the reason they lost was their D gave up over 200 rushing yards.

Gabbert threw for over 400 yards. But had 2 picks including a pick 6 it was one of his worst games of the year.

---

mallett gets no shelter when his Defense let people back in games that he had wrapped up neither should gabbert.

quote:

---

2 were in the first half. The first half of the game he was great. But for some reason in the 2nd half he didn't look good at all. In fact, he was awful until that TD pass.

---

so he was looking bad got over the mental block and threw a touchdown? sounds to me like he can recover from bad decisions just fine..

quote:

---

yeah except it took him almost an entire half and another int.

---

i don't remember mallett looking bad to be honest maybe not his best but i don't remember bad, i remember we started running the ball a lot more to run out the clock.

Have not followed Mallett's personal life very closely but don't get the Ryan Leaf comparisons from what I do know.

Leaf was coached by who knows who...Mallett was coached by a great coach and offensive mind. He is a stud from what i have seen of him though and if he really does drop it wouldn't surprise me if he turns out to be a poor man's Marino type draft steal.

Re: Gabbert, great size and measureables apparently but isn't missouri a spread offense (whose coaches got their offense from a high school, southlake). Sure he seems like a fine prospect but dont get the gabbert super hype at all.
