They woulda messed up Rodgers. He needed some mechanics tweaking. (Of note, his last offense at Cal was just insane, even though his stats were just good)
Idk. The kind of pure talent he has- that’s hard to mess up. He probably wouldn’t be as good as he became in GB- but I have zero doubts he’d still have been a hell of a lot better than Checkdown Alex.

Not all POVs are on equal footing.  Let's not pretend otherwise.

Who's POV ran afoul of your omnipotent,elevated insight.At least 3 of us here would have went for the XP.The 3 guys I watched the game with thought the same though we did admire Mack's audacity.We thought Clemson looked haggered and hanging on the ropes not NC.Tigers seemed ineffective and flustered.We're not piling on after the fact just not the route some wouldn't have taken

On UNC:  right call, wrong play.  Don't let the result affect the opinion of the decision.  The thinking behind going for 2 is sound.
I think this is right.  Right decision, wrong play-call.

Why is one of us basically pouting and bitching and the other is having a conversation?  Reflect on that, then we'll talk.  6 random dudes doesn't negate my opinion provided with valid supports.

Any and every time my POV has had less support and/or fewer facts to back it up.  You know, evidence.

If the Final Four ends up being Alabama, OU, OSU, and UGA, it will be "interesting".

You could throw UDubb in there for anyone also.

But not Missouri and Clemson.

If Missouri somehow played Clemson, the QBs would both have played for Clemson last year.  (Mizzou is on probation).

OU QB played for Bama, etc.  UDubb QB started for UGA two years back.  UGA is a kind of "QB U" these days.  Cradle of QBs?

That would be another way of putting it.  If you can't beat out Jake Fromm, don't come.

As good as Fields has looked this year, it's interesting, and has some tongues wagging etc.

It could be that Fields is better for OSU and Fromm is better for UGA.  I think Eason has NFL talent but not the "head for the game" that Fromm has.  It will be interesting to see where Fromm is drafted, projections are all over the place.

The UGA backup QB was a former walk on who left for a year and returned with a ship.

He's apparently pretty decent.

Look in the mirror pal you weren't conversing with anyone when you blasted in with your bombastic "Ehhh, can we stop with the silly, IMPRECISE percentages being thrown out here??"The rest of us were having a conversation which you couldn't help interjecting your carnival barking self correcting the proletariat

Almost 68.0795% of percentages are imprecise.

In fact, 70,419% are inaccurate.
