Who do you want to see win the QB battle?
- Thread starter JerseyCityHawk
- Start date
I would ignore that worthless loser. I actually made a custom CSS code to outright remove his posts and the "show ignored" button on the website. So now I'll never see his posts again. Knowing his uneducated stupidity is officially gone from my view feels very freeing.
If anyone wants a guide on how to hide Eyes of Retard's posts completely, let me know!
IIRC, Lester said that Brown had good mobility and decent speed going around the edges. He was not a power, up-the-middle guy like Gronowski. Lester recruited Brown to Iowa, and I don't think he would have done so if Brown weren't a good fit for his system. (Of course, that's not to say Hecklinski isn't a better fit.)
Let's be clear, too, that pocket passers can work fine in an RPO. The R part of that does not necessarily entail the QB running; it more often means handing off to the RB. What doesn't work well anymore are guys who have poor mobility and can't at least run occasionally.
not speaking for your nemesis but i would definitely say brendan sullivan was a step in the right direction — he completely turned around the ref zone offense for the better. second lester joined iowa in spring 2024 and signed brendan soon thereafter. considering where we were and the compressed time solid pickup despite later shortcomings.
Frankly, I forgot Sullivan even existed. He started about 5 games and then left. It's still in line with what I originally said though, Lester knows what to look for. Eyes of Retard's personal lord and savior, Brian, did not. It's no coincidence the first two guys Lester brought in, Brendan and Mark, were big improvements over what we saw prior.
But we all know Eyes of Retard doesn't know anything about football, or sports on general. Luckily I don't have to read his lies anymore either.
I struggled for some time with the concept of ignoring ol' eyes.
It seemed to me that my ignoring him was a defeat.
After giving the matter thought, I came to accept the fact that he, like roaches surviving a nuclear holocaust, would never acknowledge being in error, nor go away off into the sunset.
In addition, he had the (pathological?) tenacity of a pitbull.
Bottom Line:
I concur with those that have finally ignored/blocked ol' eyes, and did likewise.
I strongly suspect ol' eyes is a teacher/coach, past or present.
However in 40+ years in education, I have NEVER encountered the likes of him.
He DID serve one purpose; he made me READ BETTER!
I stopped speaking to him when he admitted he was here to only correct fans. He isnt here in good faith, meaning he never posts in good faith. Once I realized that I felt a lot better not responding to him. Decided to remove the temptation of looking at his ignored posts by using the Chrome browser extension called Stylus, and I made a small code to remove his posts and the "show ignored" button. Now I'm really free. The only person that loses in the situation where you ignore him, is Eyes himself. I just want to talk about Iowa sports, not argue about nothing with an egomaniac.
I have no real preference as to who wins the starting job out of fall camp. As far as my "QB wishes" go, they would go like this:
1) QB1 is the clear QB1 and proves it all season.
2) QB2 is prepared to play, because we all know that he will be needed at some point - Iowa has needed the backup QB to play significant and/or critical minutes every season since 2022; B Sully and Stratton were quality, prepared QB's; the others ranged from rather poor to disasters.

I'd consider becoming a fan of a different team....
Personally I'm ready to be disappointed again.
Doesn't matter. He already doesn't realize the definition of "stupid"
Brad Banks, Drew Tate, Ricky Stanzi, and CJ Beathard all say hello. Jeez, Beathard is still in the NFL. We've had some pretty great QBs under Ferentz.
Whichever one KF thinks gives us the best chance to win.....play the other one.
Mobile, doesn't freeze up, doesn't overthrow massively, actually gets developed enough to get drafted as a starting QB in the NFL.
Beathard hasn't played in a game in a couple years.
Plenty of hard W's in the hall of famer's book.
I'm not sure the qb conversation is all that relevant
And Chuck Long was a bust in the NFL. No greatness in your book.
He has said in the past that he was a football coach. He also has said he is autistic, so the fixation and repetition of his opinion makes sense.
I remember when he popped up on BHGP several years ago. His comments were exactly the same then, so I don't think they are worth reading-neither are the replies to his comments, imo.
says the guy more or less replying to his comments hahahaha.
Well you were 1 for 3.
Yes, coached a little football.
Not autistic, to my knowledge. And have never implied otherwise.
And have no idea what BHGP is, so you got the wrong guy, there.
Read better. And simply, try to be sure that what you're saying about others, is accrurate
That explains a lot. I generally liken Eyes of Retard to a homeless man you have to walk past to get to work; an unfortunate existence that you want to avoid at all costs, constantly yelling psychotic nonsense at everyone, sad to look at, makes everything worse by being there, and you pray that you're not his next target to harass. But if you want to go to work (in this case post on the board) you have to deal with it.
This is one of the problems with the "ignore" feature.
Or, at least, the problem with someone who uses the ignore feature, but continues to obsess and post about the person ignored.
Or, at least, the problem with someone pretending to have ignored someone.
In any case, it's pretty annoying to have this spaz *** reinforcing something that I've clearly stated is untrue.
And I'm sure the homeless can feel the compassion, too
Can't wait for the first "What the Heck" headline when he either wins or loses a game for the Hawks
I voted Heck but am open to Hank if he wins the job.
QB requires a composite of traits but to me the processing under fire is most important,assuming their physical traits are div 1 quality.
I know Hank played HS in Tennessee so no slouch competition there but Hecks HS experience leading a 5A school in Georgia is hard to beat.
Like drew tate ,coming from hot beds of HS football with passing camps,spring ball,quick athletes everywhere, seemingly gets guys ready for next level,especially in that processing aspect

Or whoever can run for their life better.
Not a knock on the OL, but things can/do break down.
Cute saying which is oft repeated, but not necessarily true
Cute enough to almost always be true, and thus repeated?
A team can have two good qbs. But that almost never means they are both in the plans to play significant snaps. Thus the saying
Not often enough for scrambling to be the #1 priority.
Pound the ball enough, and there won't be much pass rush
God dude you’re a miserable SOB… keyboard warrior… most jacked the toughest man in the world … quit popping zits in your mom’s basement … and those playboy magazines are getting awfully sticky as well
