I disagree there. I have one main complaint about him I've had for 2 years now. And no it's not turnovers, all QBs throw picks. It's not his height, or decision making, or his arm strength, or his star rating.

My comment was not pointed at you by any means. But it was pointed at those who continually complain that we have higher rated QBs on the roster, and he will never play in the NFL. I still don't understand what that has t do with anything.

quote:

The biggest thing that I gripe abotu stetson on is how he RARELY throws a deep ball perfectly in stride that a receiver doesn't have to slow down or even stop for.
This is a legitimate point. And it is odd. There are times he will get rid of the ball and there is no WR anywhere in the area, and then there are time like you just mentioned. I always complained (to myself) that he should throw a WR open. Place the ball and lead a receiver to the open spot. Get the ball out sooner and hit the receiver in stride....so your point is legitimate.

I can live with that, however. It's putting the ball at risk that frustrates me most. If our WR slows down and we don't get a TD...I can live with that. We got a long reception and can at least (usually)come out with a FG. It's the silly throw the ball up for grabs and hope for the best Ints. that get me. Ints, like you said happen to everybody, but if he threw the ball away his Int rate would be lower than most and we would have more sustainable drives.

Imagine me saying this:
His biggest fault? He was not rated a 5* by the services. If you drill down you find that is what many of our "fans" hold against him.

And you getting this:

If his only deficit is that


Imagine. You don't read other posts...you just skim and then edit posts and insert your own words to amke them say what you want them to say. I listed a whole list of shortcomings Bennett has, and you come up with "His ONLY deficit" which I never said.

(one and two and...cue the "You can't read and purposely twist words")

I can cite posts from the Old Men's Stet Club stating:

- He's one the best long ball QBs in the game
- He was at least as deserving of the Heisman as Bryce Young
- He is arguably better than Young because of the head-to-head title game stat lines



Do it. I mean, since you said those were said post them. I posted yours word for word. You post what you are saying. And not what you are twisting them to mean, but what was actually said.

Lucius, you are one of the most dishonest posters I have seen on this board.

You forget that after the SECCG you waere saying things like that game proved which QB was best....but when I asked what the National Championship game proved you came up with this? - He is arguably better than Young because of the head-to-head title game stat lines


I was using your thought process against you. But no.. Context means nothing to you. If you would like, I will be happy to dig though and find exact posts. I doubt you will, though.

quote:

Yet...no answer to: WHY HAS BENNETT NOT DECLARED FOR THE DRAFT AT ALMOST 25 AND A SUPER SENIOR? (Given his incredible talents as described by his fan club)
Because he will not play in the NFL. Nobody has argued that he will.

I will say again...you would rather have a QB that goes to the NFL than one that wins a National Championship.

He won’t answer that. His ego won’t let him.

Dude is 23, typical senior is 22, you fail at math, just like you do as a poster.

Pickens at 100% might have been a step faster and caught the ball in stride. Now you're blaming Bennett for the Pickens injury.
"Racist white boy deliberately injures black player to affect his draft chances!" Call the media!


WG is not one the call racism, and is not a Bennett hater. He is one of the more reasoned posters on the board.

You do, however make a legit point about Pickens injury possibly took a step away from him. That said, Bennett put the ball exactly where it needed to be for the Mitchell TD and threw it 45 yards in the air.

However...I will also say that WG is correct, in that there have been times when receivers have had to slow down and wait on the ball. I did see the same at times with Daniels, but more often with Bennett.


We can't put blinders on. Bennett has faults. It's dishonest to think/say otherwise. We have some posters who cannot give Bennett any credit whatsoever. But by the same token it would be just as silly for us to think Bennett has no flaws.(Not directed necessarily at you, Ala...just in general because we all sometimes fall into defending our positions unreasonably sometime. Me included)

That's ok. I'll continue to ask so everybody can see his hypocrisy.

He is especially different when pressured.


Oh. No question about it, but so was the Heisman winner. I noticed SB threw the ball away several times, which, to me, showed he had learned from his mistakes. I will not call his interception and interception. THAT was a bad, bad call.

he was talking about the Heisman winner, I think. There is no debate when we got pressure on Young his passes went way off base.

That said, he still made several incredibly good passes, too that were just flat out dropped by his receivers.

Exactly. He did throw one ball (that I remember) up. But he protected the ball much better.

Good because it was ruled a fumble.

He has improved a lot. I'd like to see him run the ball even more next year. He will be playing with a lot of confidence and not as much pressure.

SB learned to throw the ball away, rather than take a sack or force the ball into triple coverage.
