Skins took Kirk in the fourth
Another example (obviously its been a couple seasons already) but Geno Smith had a career that wasn't very impressive as far as "Starting QB" role. Now he's doing well with the Seahawks and is really settled in now
Did we ask Aaron why he isn't…..??
Thought not
Hard hitting journalism
That's why passings games are underwhelming,they just put a back yard football QB in there and have him run around..no rhythm or cohesiveness
It’s absolutely a thing. Experience matters. College can’t prepare you for the NFL. You need to watch it unfold for a bit
Kurt Warner learned his craft in arena football league for years before shining "right away" as a Rams QB.
100k in 2 day's…. didn't you have way more views before ESPN?
Patience
Damm so true wat he is saying ❤❤❤❤❤
Idk why it bother me he said Kirk went in the 2nd when he didn’t
Winnifred Ports
Mahomes sat behind Alex Smith his entire first year until the final game IIRC.
Dan quinn… quit stealing seahawks coaches
F*,in love arron Rodgers Tuesdays
Why is Kirk in there? He played good for the Vikings, lol.
Geno still getting shade 🤣🤣🤣
Cousins was a fourth rounder I think
Did Rodgers own up to how bad the Broncos defense whooped his ass? You got more effed up in that game than you did taking your psychedelics.
Aaron mentioned having patience with coaches also. In most cases, I’d agree. Nathaniel Hackett in Denver was a total disaster and embarrassing
Love the ayahuasca enthusiast as a tag for Arron
Love this
Then why did everyone fry Atlanta for creating that exact environment?
They didn't even have to trade up and waste draft assets or lose talent.
Why isn't Geno in that picture?
I think people are making too much out of this. Guys that have what it takes will develop either way.
Sure a guy might look better in his first season if he sits comoared to a rookie, but you can't tell me Mahomes, Allen, etc would be better if they sat for 3 years.
Not even 2k likes?
A bad team is lke having a beat-up minivan. Then any QB drafted Top 10 in Round 1 is a Ferrari. Well. sorry to say, but no one wants to leave the Ferrari in the garage! No fan, HC, OC or Owner. Everyone wants to try it, even if to go to the grocery store. And success stories like Stroud and Daniels will only make the expections GO UPWARD with rookie QBs!
He’s right about everything except the round Kirk was drafted which was round 4
Not putting Geno Smith in here makes me a lil sad, but I guess on year 3 it's less of a story by now
JJ McCarthy comes to mind. Now that Darnold is playing great, I can see JJ sitting for a couple years learning under KOC and being absolutely lethal when it's his turn.
Dalton and Flacco both went to the playoffs as rookies.
Lol. He needs to sit. The most overpaid, overrated bum in the league by far
I seem to remember that being done in GB, and Rodgers wasn't very happy about it . . .
If you think about it a lot of the best qbs have sat and developed. Mahomes, lamar, allen all sat for a while before starting. Hell even Tom brady
I don’t really know how to feel as a panthers fan but it’s not like we just benched Bryce and it could or could not be the right decision. It was more like, we were the laughing stock of the NFL the worst team, pat and the boys talking about us, being relegated out of the freaking NFL, getting picked on by ALL MEDIA… I could go on and on. We HAD to do something. On top of that, we have a new coach and I know for a fact that tepper will be patient this go around!! Said coach, Dave Canales was going to lose the locker room, not have the opp to start a new culture and look bad without sitting Bryce. Sitting Bryce was the best thing to do. When it comes to the fans, the team/locker room, the owner, the coach and the rest of the staff. Last years staff threw him to wolves but he should’ve sat. So we are making the right choices now. Idk why everyone fuckin hates us……. Sure rookies throw interceptions and make mistakes and etc.. but after a full season and then the first 2 games of Bryce’s sophomore season, we still couldn’t hardly score a single touchdown. We couldn’t even get a damn first down! Literally.
Which really means not firing the GM and coach if the rookie doesn’t work in the first season. They pull the trigger to save their jobs.
He did miss a beat. There were great moments and signs the first year. He had an incredible throw his first start against the vikings and you could see the signs. He also took a lot of unnecessary sacks. Backbreaking sacks. That was I would say his biggest issue the first season.
