nopony said:Alrighty... yeah, I think I'll disregard every expert in the field and go with a dude from a message board's opinion.
the problem is, you're not using facts. you're using the statistical facts and making them the facts about the player's potential. you look at young's stats and say "he must be a good quarterback." you look at cutler's stats and say he's not as good as the other QB's because his stats aren't as good.
yes he CAN run, but that doesn't make him a dual-threat QB at all. he and cutler are both virtually the same athletically, but no one calls cutler a dual-threat QB. what makes a QB a "dual-threat" is his scrambling ability, so why even call him that since you said he doesn't scramble? he and young have nothing in common as quarterbacks.
the fact that you don't actually state your own opinion, the fact that you quote scouts or something from a website, the fact that you use STATS to project a player's pro protential, etc...is a pretty strong indication that you don't know what you're talking about.
saves said:How bout this dude from the message board that saw every start that Omar has ever made and lived the floor above him last year? He ran like a 4.7 this offseason, and is not capable of a 4.55. There is a huge difference in 4.7 and 4.5 speed. But keep believing what you want, maybe if you search back you'll find the very large write-up about him I posted, I know alot about how he plays. But I'm sure you'll go spreading the word of the "experts" that say he is a 4.5 guy that will beat you with his feet!
Motion said::yes: :clap:
What makes you any different?
nopony said:Huh?
Can you guys figure out in what way you're upset? Am I bad for saying what most scouts think? Or am I bad for just giving my opinion? because I seem to be getting insulted for both at the same time.
I have no idea why it became whine at nopony day, but it's getting old.
Lets talk about the issue of Jacobs or move along. I got out of junior high school a long, long time ago.
you're not using facts that relate to the situation at hand, which is projecting a player as a NFL prospect. you use stats to make your own opinion. you listen to scouts only to hear what you want to hear. all the scouts have said cutler is a great prospect, but you decided he's overrated. why? you looked at the stats. i remember you comparing his numbers to young. your opinion is formed based on this, and nothing else.nopony said:Good grief. I state my opinion all the time. Then, when possible, I back it up with facts or the occasional "expert" opinion.
I cannot believe someone would say the fact that someone uses facts indicates they don't know what they are talking about. Can you hear yourself? Do you realized how ridiculous that sounds?
I have given my opinion. I have supported my opinions. The fact that you take issue with that is hilarious.
no they're not! show me who thinks jacobs is a dual threat.nopony said:I listed comparisons between the two and said both "were CONSIDERED dual threats". That is true, whatever you would like to believe.
