    Those missed short intermediate passes were flat out inexcusable, and bad. THAT, has to be totally a thing of the past this year. Those passes ARE the bread and butter of this offense.

    People forget, or never looked at his college tape, that he made those passes all the time before he ran into that rough stretch which had much to do with the shitty pass pro and his struggling to acclimate to the speed of the NFL. Towards the end of the season these passes were not a problem for him. Did he miss a few? Sure, but so did some of the top QBs, it happens. This whole "Wilson can't hit the short passes" meme is inaccurate.

    Not sure where you were in the 80s but they had like 6 top 40 hits?

    Well in 1980 I was 8yo lol

    I only remember living in a land down under, I may slightly have a memory of another one but it wasn't the one linked.

    EDIT

    having just checked that was the only song they had that cracked the top 20 in the UK obviously it was #1 the next best song got to #21

    Ah, that makes sense. Men at Work had their success mostly based on MTV in the early 80s, before it was available in Britain.

    And just today the Carolina GM informs Darnold that there is a pretty good chance the Panthers take a QB in the draft. Darnold is not even worth being a backup. Sucks to be him.
