What is wrong with Mallet?

[desertdawg]

For a big QB he almost cringes from pressure. It's like he's scared to get hit. No thanks, not with our oline.

You just jumped on the DA=Mallet wagon with that post amigo.

 

[Hypothesis]

Mallet has always reminded me of Ryan Leaf. I don't think Mallet is mentally mature enough for the pro system.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Dude.... He has thrown two perfect fades tonight for TD's.

12 points down.... Newton has come back from worse. lol

 

[OldDirtMcGirt]

Mallet's better than DA by alot (not that that's saying much), but is going to develop Joey Harrington syndrome after ten games behind our line.

Now, DeMarcus Love and DJ Williams are Hogs that I'd love to see on Big Red.

 

[clif]

wow.. DA MY ASS!

 

[Dr. Jones]

Oooops.... 10 points. With one quarter to go!

 

[desertdawg]

I really hope this turns into a game.

The receivers aren't exactly helping him out, either. Its like watching Skelton... Great arm, inaccuracies, flashes of brilliance, areas of improvement on reading blitzes. Not very mobile at all though, at least Skeltons got that on him.

Which is why I have been saying he's Skelton's twin for a while. Better arm and worse footwork and pocket pressence.

Not to mention his system makes it overlook his faults. He's looked off his primary receiver TWICE THE ENTIRE GAME. Spread offense and only one read

I was about to post that OSU got lucky on a major hold on that 3rd down play. They finally called it.

What an awkward situation that was.

 

[desertdawg]

Mallet heating up.
Edit LOL

 

[Evil Ash]

No pocket pressence whatsoever.

Sorta OT - Is Heyward draft eligble? He's making a better case to be taken in the top 5 than Mallett is

 

[desertdawg]

This drive right here, 11 minutes left will decide a lot.

 

[Proteus]

Pathetic meltdown by Ohio State.

Yes, he generally considered late first round prospect, although this game may move him up.

 

[desertdawg]

Mallet does not look comfortable or adequate when he leaves the pocket. Skelton looks better in this aspect.

 

[clif]

Maybe we can get him late in the first. Hopefully other teams think like you guys. We can do defense in first then sneak up later in the round. He is absolutely a first round pick.

Skelton plays better against NFL teams. The dropped passes included.

Ok. Being that mallet has never thrown an NFL pass what can I say? Below %50 is good enough?

 

[desertdawg]

LOL, AreKansas just got da ball back.

 

[clif]

Ok he blew it. Second round here he comes.

 

[Evil Ash]

1 read and 1 read only. Stared his WRs down the entire game and finally paid for it.

 

[desertdawg]

And he threw a pick, while the game was on the line. Total DA style, sorry Clif, he sucks out side of the pocket or with pressure. Maybe even third round now.

 

[O]

Very DAish throw to end the game.

 

[clif]

He blew it. No doubt about it. Hopefully he learns from this. He has incredible talent. I wish he would slip to the second for us. Too bad for him.

Mallet will be a good NFL QB behind an above-average line. Behind the Cards line he's roadkill.
