Multiple interceptions and I haven't seen them doing any end zone celebrations like they normally do. I thought they were showing a lot of class by respecting the fact they weren't intercepting an NFL quarterback.

Maybe I'm just being overly sympathetic for a kid (hinton) who barely made the practice squad and just trying his best. I know, there is no try, do or do not. Also, duck you yoda Yeah. I think you're being a little sensitive to expect the defense to not celebrate a good play at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 my opponent thought he was being sly and picked up and started the WR turned QB in his flex spot. Where QBs are not allowed. Got him negative .78 points...ha! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was very wrong! He killed me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where QBs are not allowed. Got him negative .78 points...ha! I started both of them- RBqb and WRqb. Plus my qb. I knowingly ceded about 25 points doing so. It wasnt a difference maker... i did it for fun. Did he really think that the guy(s) were going to put up points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loaf Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I'm gonna say yes. He sat Allen Robinson, Mike Davis, Devin Singletary, Mike Williams and Hayden Hurst to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplemonster Posted November 30, 2020 Share Posted November 30, 2020 I think he won the state championship as QB in high school and played two years of quarterback in college. If nothing else is kind of interesting to see what a talented but relatively untrained and unprepared guy can do. He's about as close as some glory days guy at the bar saying he wants to try quarterback as we're going to see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

8rattoon Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 4 hours ago, LordOpie said: Fangio needs to be fired. yesterday Local radio played a clip of Fangio a month ago dismissing the idea of keeping a QB isolated. Then today, he dismissed the idea again. He threw his QBs under the bus, backed it up and did it again. He has thrown many coaches and players under the bus. He takes almost no responbility for anything. He doesn't know when to call time outs, nor whether to go for it, punt, or kick a FG. Dude sucks. Fangio, take some responsibility. If the job is too big for you, be a man and step down. Yes. Not a Broncos fan but I live in the Denver area. Fangio was a decent coordinator. HC is way over his head. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was a brand new practice player who likely would have never made it on the NFL field in the first place. He probably made more than his annual salary in one week. If he didn't have an agent before, he has one now. I think he'll be okay. Edited December 1, 2020 by Bobby Brown 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMD Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 I bet the Denver situation has every other NFL team scrambing to figure out how they would address that happening. I heard that Denver wanted to promote a position coach or trainer into being the starter for one day since he was a college QB but the NFL said they could not, so they went with Hinton as Plan B.

This has happened in the NBA before a couple times, right. I think Tree Rollins played in a game even though he was part of the coaching staff.

That's not bad. Thank you. I stand corrected. But still hardly enough to get your brains beat in every week. And what's their average practice squad career? A few years?

In his mind he got a chance to get on an NFL field, get a real NFL game jersey with his name on it & a great story to tell for the rest of his life. Oh & they paid him $36k to do it, which is probably at least half of what he'd make in a year working a sales job & right before Christmas time too. I would be willing to bet anyone who's ever had aspirations, including you or me, would jump at the chance to "embarrass" themselves the way he did. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did fine considering the circumstances, that's a lot of pressure. I hardly know the Players Union agreement or contracts but I wonder why they couldn't of just signed some jobber QB to a 1 week contract. Perhaps it's against the rules or it was too soon of notice.
