NFL QB Gif Nielsen says those hand-wringing over Retzlaff "need to take a

He’s wrong- he’s just being supportive as a former great. I doubt

He's watched all the games and that was his opinion. By his own words

I believe that. I also believe that’s not what he really thinks. He’s being

SBB

If he didn’t like JR he’d just keep his mouth shut. He wouldn’t endorse

I disagree

Well, by his own mouth he declared opposite what you think

What do you want these guys to say when they're asked

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 7:35am

You think he didn’t expect that question before going to a Y’s Guys interview?

CougarEat

Sep 18, 8:25am

You think Giff would dodge an interview because of one question

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 9:16am

All I’m saying is if he didn’t believe in JR he certainly could have chosen to

Take a nervous pill doesnt sound like a shot

So you're saying there's a chance....Giff Nielsen is telling a lie?? I don't

Ironic take seeing as many on CB

ALC

Sep 18, 10:03am

Why is it ironic?

SBB

ALC

Not ironic or contrary to what was expected or intended

SBB

Sep 18, 12:37pm

pff agrees with him. So do the coaches. What would convince people?

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 11:52am

I would be saying the same thing as the coaches

SBB

Sep 18, 12:07pm

Why is pff lying for him? what's the conspiracy?

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 1:22pm

PFF said Retzlaff wasn't a college QB last year. What was the conspiracy then?

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 1:56pm

What if they rated him properly for how he played then and properly for how he

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 6:37pm

He is much better against awful competition than he has been against good(gasp)

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 8:16pm

Competition is specifically factored in to PFF. That's why Rising was not rated

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 8:44pm

PFF is based on an analyst grading your performance on each play

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 9:20pm

I am aware. Are you aware that they adjust it based on how hard it was for you

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 9:47pm

Very aware actually but its not stat driven or weighted the way you are thinking

stansburycoug

Sep 18, 10:10pm

Cam didn't check anything down. You didn't watch the game and are now indulging

Socrates Johnson

10:33am

I wouldn’t call it a lie. I’d call it what I did. Being a team player

SBB

Sep 18, 1:57pm

PFF is being a team player for BYU? PFF is protecting JR from BYU's fanbase now?

Socrates Johnson

Sep 18, 6:39pm

You got it! The conspiracy runs very deep!

And there it is....but SBB (and many others) doesn't care. There just has to be

What do you "absolutely love" about Bohanon?

Let's see....hmm. His selflessness, his leadership, his experience as a B12

jaba166

Sep 18, 7:14pm

The hard part for many fans is that Retzlaff hasn't shown enough yet this year

Doogal McCougar

I was asking for GB. After Wyoming and the stats, if we win or JR has a good

Too late! True fans are already onboard since he arrived at BYU, as they are

This is 100% accurate

I hope Kalani got the message. Because he's seemed pretty concerned

PFF seems far more positive about JR than most cb'ers, press and odds guys

PFF absoutely destroyed Jake last year. Before you rely too much on PFF

But they repented! Have you?

Sep 18, 7:20pm

Come on.. Giff played as a backup before most of us were born. He played college before the forward pass was big.

AltTabbins

Sep 18, 8:54am

It's just fun to have a "big game." As Giff said, just win, baby, especially
