    It's not even the fact that his title and post read like they were typed by a guy new to the English language.

    It's the whole idea of "I will make my title the first three words of my first sentence."

    Can someone explain what? The fundamental theorom of Calculus? Yes, I can. The imagery involved in the works of Pablo Picasso? No, I can't.

    I have no idea what this thread is.

    But, like I said, it isn't just him. Every thread on Volnation is exactly like this.

    Not to completely roast this guy over it. It isn't a big deal. It has just become a pet peeve of mine.

    Click bait

    It has become increasingly popular on facebook, and faux news sites. Actual faux news, I am not trying to make a political statement there.

    Mariota in any other city id welcome with open arms, but under Whisenhunt? Just seems like an odd fit, look at the following QB's Whiz has played:
    • Charlie Whitehurst 6'5" pocket QB
    • Zach Mettenberger 65" pocket QB
    • Jordan Palmer 6'5" pocket QB
    • Jake Locker 6'2" tried making a pocket QB out of a mobile QB
    • Philip Rivers 6'5" pocket QB
    • Brian Hoyer 6'2" mobile QB
    • Drew Stanton 6'4" pocket QB
    • John Skelton 6'6" pocket QB
    • Kevin Kolb 6'3" pocket QB
    • Richard Bartel 6'4" pocket QB
    • Derek Anderson 6'6" pocket QB
    • Matt Leinart 6'5" pocket QB
    • Kurt Warner 6'2" pocket QB
    • Brian St. Pierre 6'3" pocket QB
    so thats 12 pocket QB's, 1 mobile QB, and a Jake Locker experience gone horribly wrong in 2014.

    If Whiz wants to tear down all of Mariota's best qualities, and contort him into what he's traditionally calls for out of his QB's, I dont want to witness that at all.

    Now if Mariota is the pick and Whiz is gone after 2015 well thats something else, but I really dont want to suffer through another losing season while Mariota finds his way, you just dont take a guy 2nd overall to recreate into something he's not.

    I get what you're saying. But of those 14 QBs you mention, KW only had significant success with 2 of them. If Mariota is an exceptional QB in KW's eyes then we have to take him.

    Whiz went out and hand picked all of those guys except Rivers and Locker,

    he's got a type

    the same way @The Hammer loves Asian women, Whiz loves pocket QB's, no matter how ugly

    Whiz actually addressed this in an interview yesterday. I'll see if I can find the link, basically he said that the media is blowing up how he has a specific type of QB based on his past. Whiz said that Mariota has everything he looks for in a QB. Sounds like a smokescreen to me still.
