You do realize that our pass blocking was rated as some of the best in the NFL the first half of the season? EagleEye 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number9 Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Prior to the draft, Bill Polian said Marcus Mariota was the best pick. He predicted Marcus would have an excellent career on his radio spot. Hindsight is a waste of time. Anybody can pick the Powerball numbers after the drawing. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000486571/article/wolf-prefers-jameis-winston-polian-likes-marcus-mariota Polian -- who wisely chose Peyton Manning over Ryan Leaf as the No. 1 pick in 1998 -- said he would lean toward Mariota. "Very, very close. But I'd probably lean toward Mariota, as I said. It's closer than Manning-Leaf was. Way closer," Polian said. "More like (Kerry) Collins-(Steve) McNair in '95. With Mariota, I don't think playing from the pocket will be an issue; he did a lot of that in the eight or nine games I saw. And he didn't throw 18 interceptions, either. On 14 of (Winston's) 18 interceptions, Winston didn't see linebackers underneath or he zeroed in on the receiver regardless of coverage." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
