Lol, I'm still waiting on Jacksonville to draft a Hawkeye though. Last one was Tavian Banks...
I like CJ solid in all areas. He has one problem which is a killer in the NFL. He holds on to the ball too long. If he was a second more decisive he'd be a really good QB. That's what Brady and Brees do best perfect timing. The athletic QBs can scramble around which gives them that extra time. A pocket passer has to be perfect with his timing or it's a sack fest.
Beathard is going to end up coaching eventually! Two years learning from Urban Meyer will be great for him.

My reference was to the 55-24 drubbing of Urban and his boys.
However........... the night Keith kicked the winning FG against Jim Harbaugh and his undefeated Michigan boys was special too. But I'll take destroying OSU as the highlight of my football fandom life.
I thought there was a good chance before free agency but it's going to be crowded at DT if they drafted Nixon now. I wouldn't mine ISM or Brandon Smith in the later rounds.
Jags need help at tight end, Beyer would be a good value in the later rounds too.
I think a lot of it has to do with strength.
Arm strength more around average compared to starting QBs. Physical strength definitely not on par with a lot of the starters. Has obviously had some durability issues throughout his career.
He's retained his mobility though through the years, and possesses pretty decent pocket awareness, which is something that has kept an immobile QB like Tom Brady from dying a natural (metaphorical) death in the league years ago...............
He doesn't have an elite arm, but he can make all the throws and he's got enough size to make it work. If something happened to Trevor, I'll feel good about CJ coming in and the offense still functioning.
Exactly. That's really what I was wanting to say.
Under optimal circumstances, CJ has done an excellent job of bringing a stable presence under center when operating the offense when Garappolo was injured. In fact, on more than one occasion, he provided a spark in leading the team in come from behind efforts.
Joe Montana and Kurt Warner's arm strength were not great. It was their knowledge and timing / accuracy.
Being a long term NFL back up QB would be a great job. Good money and less injuries.
Brady and Brees have also logged over a decade of games and had that development. Give CJB some commitment and development and he would be much better at getting into a rhythm and getting that ball out on time.
He's taxed by what states the games are played in. California is just one of the many states he plays in.
True, but SF played 9 of their regular season games in CA last year.
Will CJ wear #16 for a few months and then get a nice pay day for it after the Jags draft Trevor Lawerence?
and with the Tyson Alualu signing falling through, Jags will be looking to add an elite DL...
Let’s see how many Hawkeye Report posts you can make happen in the next 30 minutes of your life. O/U is 15.

Hi, Hick in Ark.
You seem a bit unhinged. Again. I guess that's what happens when you move down to Hickville Arkansas.
Do you ever post anything useful? Don't answer, Hick. We already know.
