Guys, who's playing better, Tyler Smith or Evan Neal? Things to ponder...

Tyler, and it's not even close.

 

[p1_]

Tyler, and it's not even close.

Neal taken 7th overall. We looking pretty smart about now.

 

[ravidubey]

Noah effing Brown. Who would have guessed?

I've always been a fan, but Dak don't like tossing many contested passes.

 

[ravidubey]

Neal taken 7th overall. We looking pretty smart about now.

And again, this site was bitching about Smith when we took him

I know I was, and I was thankfully wrong.

It takes a big man to admit he was wrong. Props.

 

[shoop]

And again, this site was bitching about Smith when we took him

I was unhappy that we all but broadcasted our first three picks ahead of time. Then the idea that we took someone known for having penalties when it was a trademark of our team last year. I did like his upside and I am glad he is working out well.

[shoop]

Certain people on this board have been asking them to implement this concept for a while.

 

[Genghis Khan]

I know I was, and I was thankfully wrong.

I didn't love the pick, but it was less about the talent and more about it seemed a bit high for a guy who was expected to be a project.

Turns out he has come along much faster than projected.

 

[bbgun]

Kiper ripped the pick. That's good enough for me.

 

[Cotton]

I know I was, and I was thankfully wrong.

Matter of fact, now that I think about it, I may have rage-quit the draft chatter thread when that pick was made.

 

[Simpleton]

Are you sad that we're turning it around? Will Anderson is slipping away ...

Meh, Anderson was out the fucking window as soon as Maher knocked home that FG to beat the Bengals. The NFC is weak and with the defense playing like this we should be in the playoffs, might as well make the best of it.

 

[Simpleton]

And again, this site was bitching about Smith when we took him

I was a bigger fan than most, and definitely loved his upside, but I would've went Jermaine Johnson or Devin Lloyd. Although to be fair when we turned around and got Williams in the 2nd I said I would've rather had Smith/Williams than Johnson/Raimann or whatever other OT's went in that range.

Devin Lloyd looks like a certified stud too, although with Smith exceeding expectations I wouldn't give him up even for Lloyd.

And the special teams. Seem to have gotten better every year under Fassel. You know we're going to block a punt or two and Turpin is going to bust a couple. Coverage has been solid, too.

You win special teams and defense and the offense doesn't commit penalties we'll be in every game and win a lot. First game was an outlier.

I'm starting to agree, at least in terms of the offense.

I know people are having a good time throwing Dak under the bus and anointing Rush but it was far more than just Dak in that game. Moore was off the reservation calling double reverses on the first drive, Steele had like 3 false starts in one quarter, completely botching simple things like a bubble screen with Lamb bumping into Schultz, and so forth.

I think the offense, including Moore, just wasn't ready to play a regular season game after not doing anything real in preseason.

 

[bbgun]

Beginning to understand why Sam Williams, a penalty machine, fell to the 2nd.

 

[Cotton]

PASSING	Comp	Att	Pct	Yds	TD	Int	QBR
Daniel Jones	20	37	54.1	196	0	1	61.8

Jesus, that is bad.

He's talented but seemingly has a very small brain, hopefully they can coach that out of him because he has juice off the edge.
