He’s been bullish on that for awhile. Remember for awhile we just had Pittman, Campbell, and Pascal at WR because he thought we were fine. Took him until 2022 to draft Pierce and then 2023-2024 he drafted Downs and Mitchell. Hes been not upgrading the secondary for awhile now too. Traded Gilmore last offseason and let Rodney McCloud walk. He was going to roll into 2023 with the secondary being some combination of Dallis Flowers, Isaiah Rogers, Darrell Baker, JuJu Brents, Rodney Thomas, Jaylon Jones, Nick Cross, Tony Brown, and Blackmon. The season ended and the excuse was that that the secondary was bad because two of their young unproven corners were not available for the season (Rogers suspended and cut and Flowers IR after week 1). Then this season he ran it back and pretty much just gave the starting corner spots to Brents and Jones. He brought in no veteran competition. It’s like once they lost the battle for Snead, that was it for trying to upgrade the secondary. -

Last year, Richardson was replaced by a backup quarterback, and we won a lot of games. -
Yeah, I think Cowherd was probably stating a demonstrable fact about QBs not improving their accuracy much, rather than stating his opinion. So its the message more than the messenger for me on this. -
Hard to say at this point. But there will be a handful of QBs in R1 (Ward, Moss, Beck, Nussmeier). I can't see them only winning 2-3 games to have that pick, but if they did, there will be a new GM. If he believes in AR, then he will try to fix him for a year and parlay that pick into multiple picks to rebuild essentially the whole defense. -
He was arguably the most inaccurate R1 QB of all time (depending on which metric you use). And for me, it's always been about the lack of touch. Occasionally, he will dip his shoulder and throw these little side-arm passes that have no accuracy, but most of the time it looks like one type: a fastball. And he can be accurate on these passes, but it's also inconsistent. JT O'Sullivan mentioned this in the breakdown Week 1 (curious to see his and Baldy's breakdowns this week). When AR throws it with a lack of touch, it can do a few things: create too much anticipation and it becomes an overthrow, cause the ball to sail high and it can limit the angles he can drop in passes. It's a big issue that has overall limitations on AR's passing. This offseason, (I believe) his personal QB coach talked about improvements from year 1 to year 2 with this ability to change speeds and throw with touch, so they have been working on it.. But so far we haven't seen these improvements. Until that happens, he's going to be a highlight reel player who struggles overall, like he was at UF.
