Yeah that Permian wr for them has been a bust...he sucks

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

Nice drive by RGIII

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

First touchdown of the season....RG3 throw. Football is back!

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

Good for Griff, he looked solid for his first game in a while.

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

Calling it now. Lamar Jackson = bust. The Ravens coaches were saying he needs to work on his accuracy? Wtf? That is something that he either has or doesn't. Griffin will back up Flacco.

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

RG3 was solid last night

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

I can already see that the refs are already fucked. They're going to call 15 yard PF anytime there is a hard hit.

He was more accurate than RG3 in college, but both guys lack that feat for sure. IDK about bust but I don't see him ever being a pure passer

the one in the endzone was fucking garbage. shoulder hits should be legal unless targeting the head. That was a perfect hit

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

lol calling busts after the HOF game...

Accuracy can be improved with proper footwork and mechanics

NFL is under fire on twitter today due to those flags. They gotta let these guys hit, it's football not flag football

Sean Taylor would have left the game by now.

Anytime there are new rules the refs throw flags like crazy in the preseason. I don't think it will continue in the regular season at the same rate.

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

You can just see when Jackson drops back it doesn't look natural. He looks to run first before his wr's finished their routes. He has a real long way to go. No way he sees the field over Flacco or even Griffin.

This, it was the same when they put a point of emphasis on illegal use of the hands by DBs, during preseason (and beginning of the regular season to a certain extent), you'd have thought covering wasn't allowed anymore.
Now, you still have a shitty call here and there, but it's not that bad.

(And I actually think this rule needs to change, no automatic 1st down).

No doubt he's very raw, the hype train for him was out of control from the start. Not only will he not see the field but as the #3 QB he likely won't even be active most of the year.

Re: Hall of Fame game thread
 

I didn't get to watch the game when RGIII was in, but from what I understand, he had a pretty solid performance. I'm rooting for him to make a team if it's not for the Ravens. Kind of weird not seeing him wearing #10 though.
