Orakpo Interview: Mariota has shown phenomenal pocket presence

Mariota is LIGHTYEARS ahead of Locker....Not even close....

 

Pocket. I think you meant its nice to have Nike in their pocket. Phil Knight being an alumni is the only reason Oregon has been successful in athletics. That ****ing football castle- I mean facility- he built in Eugene is ridiculous. Guys who play at Oregon will never have it that good again, even the ones who play in the NFL.

 

That was extremely random.


But we'll see. LIGHTYEARS... haha you act like he's not a system college QB and like he's played a snap in the NFL.

Nope.

 

I just think it's foregone conclusion

 

Nah, not random....Lot of negativity about him in general, and the bottom of your sig explains Young, Locker, then Mariota....Locker was inaccurate coming out of College and had no stats to back his play...He sucked then and now...Young, had skills, but was dumb as rocks, and couldn't read a D...Even in College he was just clutch at times...Mariota has a better shot than any of them. Now I will agree, he hasn't played NFL, so it remains to be seen, but give the kid a shot.

 

It's been years of mediocrity, new uniforms would help themincrease revenue, which would look good considering the GM is on the hot seat. IF Mariota is actually the real deal, they could be on an upswing, that's when you do it IMO. And I'm fine with the colors, but a change could be a good thing. I've posted it before, but I love this design

 

Anyone looked at how well the Browns unis came out? Honestly, they created a dope modern throw back for them. Very much a successful uni. We need something like that.

Every time I look at our jersey - I'm like nah fam, can't rock that.

 

Locker had accuracy issues.
VY had accuracy issues.
Mariota had accuracy issues.

Put Locker in Oregon's system and you'd see a very similar player with similar numbers.

We all hope he'll be the one to break the trend, but it isn't likely.

 

If I wanted one uni change more than anything it would be the helmet. Either change the logo or the color of the helmet.

 

If we do uniforms we need to go all out with modern styles. We're one of the newest teams in the NFL. We don't need traditional uniforms. The yokes were different and fresh back we we debuted them. We need something as new now.



Go big.
