[quote=PorkSkins;1367908]I totally disagree with this take, but you're entitled to your opinion. IMO, it also sort of comes off as a lazy take similar to when people like to say, "So-and-so were outcoached." It makes people seem like they know what they're talking about. Lastly, you must've missed the games pre-injury.[/quote]

Agreed, he's dinged up, we've gone up against 3 of the better teams in the league recently, and he's still a rookie despite the massive success so far. Some adversity was going to happen at some point. He will work out of it.

I expected adversity, so that isn't much a deal IMO. I won't be swayed in that Daniels is injured and it is clearly affecting his play. I also believe if he was healthy these past two games that the outcomes would've been different. His injury is affecting his ability to move, his ability to throw on the run, and escape from pressure. In the Eagles game, it also affected his ability to throw period (whether in the pocket or on the move).

He has to be able to at least adequately make plays with both his feet and arm.

Re: WTF was that post game thread
 

I too believe the injury is a big reason for his drop off. There is a reason KK called such a conservative game on Thursday. But that would imply that he was more injured for that game than the previous 2 and that does not make much sense.

For what it's worth, Quinn just reported that JD is healthy. Just that the lack of practices have impacted the offense...

Yeah, that was kinda baffling. I think we all want to ascribe JD’s recent outings — at least Iggles — to injury and not to regression or “solving” him. Maybe he’s just being cautious and protecting himself, which I guess is fair enough. But we need him playing at 90%+ to be a viable playoff team.

Figured out doesn't make the guy run, move and evade slower lol I just can't buy the healthy comments.

Quinn is also full of shit. Daniels didn't look healthy during the latter stage of the Steelers game, and he didn't look healthy at all on Thursday night. My eyes told me as much.

yup

i hate to say this but this is playing out like the rg3 injury, at least Mike S sat RG3 a few games

RG3 had a serious knee injury which was incredibly important to his future and they rushed him back. JD 5 has a rib injury where we've seen people play with it. it just taking time and will heal 100% as time goes on, I imagine every week he'll have a little more mobility and a little more twitch. I doubt there's any threat at all of long-term damage like playing on a damaged knee.

Man there is just such paper thin comparisons between those 2! Enough already RGme would have never been half the qb daniels is as a whole package.

Re: WTF was that post game thread
 

Idc what the reason is if he plays like that again put in Mariota.

Concur. There's too much at stake.

Re: WTF was that post game thread
 

We are better than the Cowboys and Titans. And Mariota is better than any QB those 2 teams have available.

I know it's not going to happen, but I wouldn't mind seeing Mariota start both games and Jayden come back after the bye.

But since it won't happen, hopefully playing on Thursday was a blessing in disguise and those 3 extra days are valuable extra rest for Jayden's ribs.

Re: WTF was that post game thread
 

Hoping we see a run heavy approach against Dallas. JD should essentially have a game off and just keep busy handing it off.

Yup, this needs to be a trench domination game. Dallas will get worn out
