MaximusMeridius Intervention Needed

The game is so different at those levels. You can't point to lack of success at the NFL level as evidence that they weren't "really" a good college QB

The guys around Retzlaff are making him look better than he is, like Mac Jones

Not sure about that. WR's have had a lot of drops. Retzlaff is making himself

I was thinking more of the O line play. The BYU lines in the 80’s were insanely

Jake helps. Noticed on Saturday just how much his pocket presence has grown

Plenty of missed opportunities on both sides. They make plays at other times though. Inconsistent but improving.

Defense has sure given them a lot of short fields which is nice.

For sure, glad he isn’t taking crazy risks recently, imagine Hall or Beck

The receivers are not helping him at all.

That's not accurate.

Which part?

"At all"

2ndTrombone

9:34am

Fair enough, overstated. You're right.

2FarGone

9:36am

You are right, too. The original post is ridiculous.

Are you counting passes behind as drops

If you hands are on it, catch it.

and I believe PFF grades it even better than that ... it has to be catchable and

That's not realistic

CameronG

it's as realistic as expecting a QB to put a perfectly placed ball into a WR's hand every time

Credit for success of the team should be widely distributed to all the players, which is great.

Every good OL makes a QB look better. That's why every jets QB looks horrible

I hope Jake’s draft stock goes up after this year because last year tanked him

OU Cougar

9:42am

We’ve got good receivers who have made good plays for sure. The guys around a QB are always an important part of their

Retzlaff is good, don’t get me wrong. I’m just saying Bohanon would probably be

OU Cougar

9:40am

It is highly doubtful we are 6-0 with Bohamnon. BYU doesn’t have a 4 and 5 star

The run was 79-84.

Most of that 25 win streak was with Bosco who was a serviceable QB but nothing

OU Cougar

3rd round draft pick. Even after a year playing injured. Serviceable is wrong.

Some fan expectations are completely ridiculous

What happened to Epps?

Qhall

OU Cougar. Go watch the post game with Jake. Jake credits success to team.

MajorZeus

Of course there is talent all around, but you should take nothing away from Jake

This seems like a conclusion look for supporting facts that really arent there

Anything but give Retzlaff credit

Those seem like some mental gymnastics to me
