OT: Rose Bowl / Sugar Bowl

Lord, Clemson’s DBs, in addition to being slow, look lost AF. Like, covering grass while dudes cross their face
 
Clemson doesnt have a safety on the roster that can cover deep 3rd and a bunch of slow lbs running around looking like this...

Yeah I see that too but he adjusts his footwork when he has to fit in a throw in an instant. And yeah Clem$on is all half-field reads or even 1-read plays but Lawrence's command of that offense is a pretty clear indicator that he'll be able to adjust, imo. Again his ability to adjust mechanics to fit the situation shows the feel he has.

My only concern is the intermediate aggression creates some turnover risk when he doesn't ID the underneath coverage correctly. But that's a flaw of every aggressive anticipatory thrower. He also exposes himself to contact a little more than I'd like.

No way he runs in the NFL like he does in college. He's not elusive enough to miss big hits. Josh Allen tried to take dudes on early on and almost got his head knocked off.

1.) WE ARE LOADED WITH DRAFT CAPITAL ALREADY
2.) WE CAN LITERALLY TRADE OUT OF 3 AND OBTAIN MORE

What is even the point of trading him when he literallly is playing with the worst skills in the league ..save at TE?.

I look at it the opposite way. Why be committed to a guy who hasn't proven he's a quality starter? Dolphins don't owe him anything. It's the most critical personnel decision so get the best guy you can find. You can get a top 15 pick for him and still have all that draft capital for the rookie.

True. We just didn’t have the wide receivers and offensive line to take advantage. And notre lame didn’t have the receivers to do it consistently

I think the Jets take Fields 2nd unless he totally flops against Bama.

Man, we really need the Texans to lose Sunday. How are you feeling about that?

I've gotta take a closer look, but aren't the Titans fully incentivized to win?
 
I think these Fields vs Lawrence arguments are silly. It will depend on the systems they end up in and the weapons around them

I don’t even think he’s going to last until 3 after this.

Yeah, but then it pumps up the value of Zach Wilson. The better these guys do, the more value that #3 gains. Partly because 3 QBs might go in a row. Partly because the Jets pass on Sewell. Partly because the Bengals desperately would want Sewell, too. It's all good news for the Phins. IF Houston loses on Sunday.

Yeah, they clinch the South with a win and could miss the playoffs if Miami, Cleveland, Indy, and Baltimore win. Tennessee will show up, I'm just worried their defense sucks and this game will be a serious dogfight.
