    Acting like people are being absurd by critiquing Mariota's arm-strength is fanboy level 100.


    He floats way too many passes and is short on almost every deep ball. Receivers have to constantly stop their routes (that'd be much bigger gains) or slow down and wait for his pass.

    This is also why he looks much better throwing to the middle of the field than he does to the sidelines.

    He's a game-managing style QB. He's good at the short stuff. But acting like people are unfairly judging his weak arm is silly.

    Thought last night wasn't too bad. Blake is dreadful , Tajae , Demarco and Henry still look the beans. We can't defend a pass to save our lives but we look like points on every drive.

    OL play much better than last year and last night at times , impressive. Kudos to Grimm if he is the influence. Has the light finally come on for Fat Chance ?

    Sean Spence , baby !!

    Williamson is a quality starting ILB but he's probably best used as a 2 down run thumper. His coverage really stinks. Wonder if team will consider using Stafford or Huff as a hybrid LB/S in obvious passing downs

    1st team Offense looked great. OL a huge plus. Grimm has this unit right! It was so beautiful to see those under lanes open up and pass pro as well. Mariota, Murray, Henry are the truth.

    We all know the DBs are trash and need lots of work next summer. Fix that unit and this team will be ready for.....dare I say playoffs?!?

    The ball is moving, we're getting first downs and scoring on our drives. We are actually entertaining to watch on offense. I am happy as heck with that, it's been a while since we've been able to be watchable.

    I agree, his arm strength is his only obvious weakness.

    O looked pretty good. Our running game and oline look like nfl caliber groups so far, i like it. But, what i can't seem to understand is why our dbs are so bad. How in the world did/does anyone think mcc is a viable option at cb. He is absolutely trash. I would love to see us trade him and give our young (also garbage) cbs a chance (at least they have "upside"). I wouldn't give mcc 7.25 an hour to play cb for me.

    I loved that run where MM8 already had the 1st down then he flipped it to Douglas for extra yards.
