Taylor Effing Heinicke

And I don’t see RR refraining from pursuing a QB out of sentimentality. Ask Ryan Kerrigan about that. RR is no Bellichick, who seems to delight in discarding his veteran players, but he wants to win, period.

TH is growing every week and I don't think it's a coincidence that we have seen a big difference in him at about the same time the defense started to play better.

It took half the season to get there, but what we have seen these past few weeks I think is what my expectations were entering the season: defense keeping them in games, and an offense grinding it out - putting up enough points to win most games.

Yeah this is the Skins football we expected when the season began. Lean on the D and the O grinds out 1st downs. We just need that occassional splash play and this is about as well as we can execute. Had a big chunk play on that 4th and 1 that got called back.

Heinike was making a lot of throws near the LOS (as designed and asked of him) but that 4th and 9 throw to Deandre Carter was so clutch.

Stat wise Heinike had a pedestrian game but he balled out, stats can be deceiving. Wilson was trash but had a good box score.

Stats are so stupid. Russ had a great rating and couldn’t even move the ball. Nobody in the world who watched that game would say Russ was the better quarterback.

Russell Wilson looked turrible.

Did he really come back after 4 weeks on a 8 week injury? Sure looks like it

Pretty cool to hear that only 1 nfl scout showed up to Heinike's ODU pro day ... and it was scott turner. I think i heard that before but it was nice to hear.

Never heard that. Kudos to him. Paid off Id say.

which is why his Grade was a 56 and TH was a 68 :)

Its funny because I thought about you when i posted that. Lol. I should have said the ESPN ratings are stupid.

Yeah those QBR stats are so deceiving

They have to draft a QB. The question is when.

This draft? No earlier than the 4th round. They really don't have to draft a QB - they do need to find a viable back-up though and that can be either the draft or a veteran. (I hear Fitzpatrick may be available).

Talk of Jimmy G being traded to clear starting position for Lance. Not unexpected/a big secret.

Should we be considered a possible landing spot, give the weak draft? Personally I don't see him as a big enough upgrade over TH to be worth pursuing for the cost. Certainly wouldn't give up a #1 for him.
