Saints Minicamp Updates Day 2 / 6-12-24 (2 Viewers)

Huge difference between and QB that can run and a running QB. Mahomes and Allen are QBs that’s can run if have to but aren’t going to rush for 100 yards a game. They are great QBs. Hurts and Jackson are running QBs that are pretty good QBs that run as part of the offense.

Similar to Steve Young vs Vick.
I definitely like QBs that can run more so than running QBs. They can beat you in so many ways.
 
Rattler will continue to improve, but one knock on him is that he's a "see it throw it" QB right now vs one that throws with anticipation. The INT he threw vs Lattimore on an out route was potentially an anticipatory thing, or even eyes. While his PA delivery to Moreau for a TD is an example of a see it throw it play.

Anyone know how hard it is for a QB to develop anticipation? For reference Jay Cutler was an example of a See it throw it QB
I do not disagree with the overarching sentiment that you want to see Rattler throw with more anticipation. But I'll disagree in the case of this specific play because Means was his fourth read on the route. The coverage condensed. In essence, the play wasn't there to be had, especially not against Marshon. And Spencer was not fully set and the ball got away from him. It was a high throw and Marshon read it well and made a the pick.
 
... I suspect that Hedley and Hayball who both played Aussie Rules Football can tackle. And Smyth, who played some form of Gaelic Football, can likely tackle too....
If the Saints pick one of those, can they get a rule exemption to allow them to wear foam spikes on the shoulder pads and helmet????

(And LOTS of eye shadow...)
