That was a nice looking pass from Millen there. From the angle we are looking at it looks like a drop ball. But not sure.

So far Mora has made sure to throw platitudes toward each qb. We are still in the coach speak phase.

Yes, but I'll be surprised if Turner isn't QB1 for start of 2023.

 

[Chin Diesel]

Ah, brings back memories of the legendary story of Lou Holtz introducing Tony Rice to the game of darts to help Rice learn how to put some touch on his passes.

I should know better than to still be an optimist after all these years but Sammis speaks of using simple concepts which may be beneficial to the personnel they have? Reminds me of Mike Foley.

Phommachanh > Harrison

It is a nice feeling we really upgraded the QB position. We will need the depth there this year if most of them will be running QBs.

Back to the pressing topic @ hand:

 

[CONN78SEJ]

Based on what I have seen and heard, Zion Turner will be our QB. It would not surprise me if Tyler Phommachanh is shifted over to receiver.

Wut…

First part is a legitimate prediction/opinion. Second part is an opinion. Can't be refuted. Others may be surprised if that happened, but you wouldn't be.

The comments I read and heard from Mora about Roberson starting to get better with touch on his passes and similar comments from media lead me to believe he is the man going forward. I think Turner is a solid #2 and Mora and his staff are doing everything to groom him for starting in 2023.

While Roberson and Turner are on the roster and healthy, I do not see Tyler Phommachanh ever jumping in front of either of them.

Are you calling yourself and insider now? Or is this you trying to interpret what Mora is telling the media?

 

[Palatine]

If you listen to Mora's comments to the media, he has praised all the QBs. To me, it sounds like he wants to keep the competition going so they will all be motivated and sharp. If he has a favorite, he hasn't really made a public comment yet. It may be different behind the scenes.

The press has been useless. The thing they should be looking for is how fast the QB is making decisions and getting rid of the ball. How fast are they going through their progressions. How clean is their footwork. Do they look in rhythm. Command in the huddle. All they talk about is this QB threw a completion to that WR. Useless.
