John Wolford

[…..]

And yet you felt compelled to comment?

BTW, thanks for your permission to discuss backup QB. That's a relief.

Yeah i feel compelled to comment. With alot less words than you need.

How bout you ease up on the gas. It’s a backup quarterback for cryin out loud.

 

[…..]

Who are you arguing with? Yourself?
I could give a f$ about the former QB, why must you always talk about him?? You've got to move on

Hahahahaha

Nice

That's not what I saw. I also saw Perkins can take an NFL hit, get up and play some more. Same can't be said of Wolford

Denver played the 1's the entire first half. Unless Von Miller is a backup.

I don't know about other fans but to me there's a huge difference between "beating Arizona" and "not losing the game to Arizona". Our defense scored more TDs than our Wolford-led offense.

But let's face it, no matter what team we're talking about, if the backup is playing, they're screwed. Wolford isn't any different than Brandon Allen or any other scrub backup. There are other guys I'd rather have at backup including C.Daniel and Ryan Finley.......and in another month or so, Bryce Perkins.

I’d be willing to bet all of my ROD $$ for 5 years if Perkins took the same cheap shot from Adams he would be injured too.

Acting like that was a normal play is disingenuous.

It's a debate about Wolford or Perkins.
I can live with Wolford for now but I'm also realistic.
At best he's a 1 game bandaid
Hope my word efficiency met.your standards

You missed my ragging on the sub service! I got @thirteen28 thinking that Chester Nimitz didn't know there was a sub fleet during WW2. 13 said "It's time for all good men to come to the aid of their country."

It wasn't normal, it was stupid. Smart QBs don't lead with their head. Personally I like his moxy. It's his talent and judgement I question.

 

[blackbart]

It wasnt a dirty hit. What part of that do you not understand?
Or do you just ignore the rules because you like Wolford?
Yes, the Rams had a drive going when Wolford got his ass knocked out. They had driven 50 yards and Akers had 32 yards on 4 carries. I guess you give Wolford all the credit for that too?

The QB does not have to slide feet first when giving himself up. The refs fucked up that call and there were plenty of analysts who called it out. Adams is a shitbag and he intentionally hit Wolford after he had started to the ground.

Nimitz hmmmm they named one of those big targets after him, right? We launch a flare on the deck of one of those flat tops, they weren’t happy.

Where was this going?????

Just some good natured trolling...lol. @thirteen28 needed you and made this video...

So which normal hit was it that Wolford didn’t get up from? I must have missed that.

Yeah and you got a point, then again 2nd stringer probably wanting to impress consequences be damned

To me Wolfords ceiling is good Case Keenum, if it comes down to him in a critical sitch chee ation late season, we’re probably screwed

 

[Memento]

I'm just hoping that if/when we trade Wolford/Perkins, we get a high pick for each. Keep the pipeline going.

False.

Quarterback options​

On quarterback options, any quarterback who keeps the ball and does not pitch becomes a runner and loses the special protections afforded to passers.
In this example, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes runs the ball on a speed option on a 4th-and-1 play in week three against the 49ers. He does not pitch the ball and keeps it for the first down instead. 49ers defensive end Cassius Marsh applies the hit, legal in this instance since Mahomes is now a runner under the rules.

Advance as a runner​

When a quarterback drops back to pass, pulls the ball down and tucks it to advance as a runner he no longer has the roughing the passer protections afforded to the quarterback dropping back to pass, even when his path of advance is within the pocket. Any penalty on the quarterback for late hit or hit to the head would fall under the unnecessary roughness criteria.

I noticed an interesting phenomena.

Every year right before the season begins, NFL fans around the country start to get irritated and feisty. It's really interesting to watch. Hey, I include myself in that. We start to bicker and argue.

I wonder if it's some sort of subconscious way of getting ready for the battles of the season. Maybe we are nervous or that survival instinct is coming out. Maybe its that warrior instinct. Hell, I don't know.

But this argument over the backup QB's is quite hilarious and sad at the same time. But it's a sign that week 1 is about to begin.

ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL!!!!

"Perpetual Poopy Pantz"... fucking hilarious. Got a great laugh with that description.

But then I gave some thought about someone actually having that condition for realz. That would be full torture. And the smell...... my God.

Agreed.
Although not sure if "Karen" will agree.
Seems "wet panties"= inappropriate
"Perpetual Poopy Pantz"= TBD
Lolz


@Faceplant not directed at you, you crack me up and I surely mean/meant no offense in our mutual ribbing

And since he was giving himself up going to the ground and Adams delivered a blow to the head it should have been penalized.

It wasnt helmet to helmet.
It was a clean hit that wouldnt draw a flag on a hit to a WR or RB.
Look at the 2 vids posted that also werent penalties. Cam Newton was even hook sliding when he got blasted.
Not a penalty. Adams read the play from the snap, they knew it was coming. Higbee also whiffed on the block leaving Wolford exposed.
Adams is going low at same time Wolford is. Its a clean hit and lord knows its hard enough to tackle anymore, cant go low, cant go high.

That said, I'm done here.
If for some reason Stafford cant go, I'll be the biggest Wolford fan there is, unless Perkins gets the call first. Lol
Go Rams.
